Location System Status bar Status Icon Description Represents an optimal state. System Status bar System Status bar Represents a warning state (a non-critical error was detected). Represents an actionable state (a critical error was detected). NOTE: To display specific information about the current HW State, click the link to display the Health page. The Health page displays the current status of the DR Series system hardware and expansion shelf enclosures (if installed): front and rear chassis views, showing hard drive, power supply, cooling fan, and connection locations. The System Hardware Health pane for the DR Series system provides status for the power supplies, cooling fans, temperature, storage, voltage, network interface cards (NIC), CPU, DIMM, and NVRAM. The System Hardware Health pane for the external expansion shelf enclosures provides status for the power supplies, cooling fans, temperature, storage, and the Enclosure Management Module (EMM). NOTE: To display more information about the current Number of Alerts, click the link to display the Alerts page. The Alerts page displays the total number of alerts, and lists each system alert by index number, timestamp, and message that briefly describes alert status. NOTE: To display more information about the current Number of Events, click the link to display the Events page. The Events page displays the total number of events, and lists each system event by index number, severity (critical, warning, and informational), timestamp, and a message that briefly describes event status. DR Series System and the Capacity-Storage Savings-Throughput Panes There are three central panes in the Dashboard page that display data graphs which illustrate the current DR Series system status for Capacity, Storage Savings, and Throughput: • Capacity-displays the used and free physical storage capacity in percentages and volume in Gibibytes and Tebibytes (GiBs and TiBs). • Storage Savings-displays a total savings in percentages (combining both deduplication and compression) over a time period (in minutes). • Throughput-displays the throughput volume in Mebibytes/second (MiB/s) for read and write operations over a time period (in minutes). NOTE: For both the Storage Savings and Throughput data graphs, you can choose to display the current values in 1h (1-hour, the default), 1d (1-day), 5d (5-days), 1m (1-month), and 1y (1-year) durations. System Information Pane Located in the lower part of the Dashboard page, the System Information pane displays the following categories of current system information: • Product Name • System Name • Software Version • Current Date/Time • Current Time Zone 102
