6 Monitoring the DR Series System NOTE: The topics in this section apply to physical DR Series systems. The virtual DR Series system, DR2000v, may have different options available. For details, see the Dell DR2000v Deployment Guide for your specific VM platform and the Dell DR Series System Interoperability Guide. For more information on the DR Series system CLI commands, see the Dell DR Series System Command Line Reference Guide. This topic introduces the ways in which you monitor the current state of DR Series system operations using the Dashboard page options in the navigation panel. The Dashboard page displays a summary of current system status categories (System State, HW State, Number of Alerts, and Number of Events. In addition, this page displays Capacity, Storage Savings, and Throughput), and includes the System Information pane. There are links to other system pages (the Health, Alerts, and Events pages) that you can use to display the current state of the system health (by the status of its components), display the current system alerts, and current system events for your DR Series system. Monitoring Operations Using the Dashboard Page The Dashboard page contains system status indicators for the current state of the DR Series system (System State), current hardware state (HW State), current number of system alerts (Number of Alerts), and current number of system events (Number of Events). The Dashboard page also contains data graphs that display: • Capacity-used space, free space, and used and encrypted space in percentage (graphical) and total (in Gibibytes or Tebibytes). • Storage Savings-total savings in percentage based on time (in minutes), which can be displayed in 1h (1-hour, which is the default), 1d (1-day), 5d (5-day), 1m (1-month), or 1y (1-year) durations. • Throughput-for reads and writes in volume based on time (in minutes), which can be displayed in 1h (1-hour, which is the default), 1d (1-day), 5d (5-day), 1m (1-month), or 1y (1-year) durations. The Dashboard page also displays a System Information pane that lists key information about this DR Series system (such as product name, system name, software version, and a number of other key categories). For details about the System Information pane, see System Information Pane. System Status Bar The Dashboard page contains a System Status pane with icons that indicate the current system status and provide links for more DR Series system status information: • System State • HW State (with a link to the Health page) • Number of Alerts (with a link to the Alerts page) • Number of Events (with a link to the Events page) For more detailed information about the System Status pane icons: • System State, see Monitoring System Usage. • HW State, see Monitoring System Health. 78
