The Dashboard page is the first page the user will see when logging into Unisphere, as shown in Figure 6. The page is a customizable view of status of various system details, including system capacity, system health, storage health, and high-level system performance. Each status is displayed using “view blocks,” which users can add, modify, and delete as needed.
Users can also add or remove dashboards to save customized views for different purposes. At least one dashboard must be available on the page. The following table shows the available view blocks for the dashboard.
View Block | Description |
System Health | Shows health status for system objects (for example, Replication Sessions, Hosts) |
Storage Health | Shows health status for storage objects (for example, LUNs, File Systems, Datastores) |
