Health Reports in VSI give you an easily scannable view of the over health of your enterprise storage infrastructure. The reports use consistent iconography.
Icon | What It Means |
|---|---|
 | The red bell indicates an alert. We’ve flagged this as an important warning based on storage industry best practices. |
 | The yellow triangle indicates a warning. It’s not a serious issue, but it could become one soon. |
 | The green checkmark indicates all is well. It’s a beautiful day at Visual Storage Intelligence. |
If you’d rather we not bother you with good news, check out the Enterprise Red Light report and the Enterprise Yellow Light report documented below. At the enterprise level, you can double click any report row on a health report to switch to the detail view.
Enterprise Health
The Enterprise Health report provides the client a dashboard-type indicator to highlight any device that is approaching or reached thresholds that need to be addressed. If you would like more details on a particular system, double-click the row and you’ll be taken to the device level health summary specific to that device.
