About the Overview page

When you log into the System Management Console, the first page you see is the Overview page. This page lets you monitor the health of the HCP system as a whole.

The System Management Console Overview page performs these functions:

  • Provides notification of problems with hardware, capacity, object integrity, and various aspects of the system configuration
  • Displays current service status
  • Displays a capsule view of the system log
  • Contains graphs that show:
    • The ingested object count, the indexed object count, and the ingested volume.
    • The total storage capacity of all primary storage volumes and the used storage capacity.
    • The total storage capacity of all S Series storage volumes and the used storage capacity. If your system does not have an S Series storage component, this graph does not appear.

The Overview page also shows the HCP system time.

Note

HCP can be configured to maintain the system time internally or to synchronize the system time to one or more external time servers. In the latter case, if either of the following events occurs, the HCP system automatically restarts:

  • The time on the time server is changed by more than 1,000 seconds.
  • The HCP system starts using a new time server whose time differs from the original time server by more than 1,000 seconds.

To view the Overview page, you need the monitor, administrator, security, service, or compliance role.
