Displaying resiliency group information and status
You can display resiliency group information and status in the following ways:
Table: Displaying resiliency group information and status
Location | Level of detail | Useful for | |
|---|---|---|---|
Resiliency Platform Dashboard | Lowest. Displays the number of resiliency groups under Resiliency Platform control and the total number of groups in error, at risk, and healthy. | Getting a quick overview of the resiliency group population and health throughout Resiliency Platform. | |
Assets > Resiliency Groups tab | Medium. Lists all your resiliency groups in one place. | Seeing what is in each of your data centers, the state of the groups, and so on. | |
Resiliency group-specific screen | Highest. Lists each asset in the resiliency group, their type, and state. | Getting detailed information on a resiliency group and its underlying assets, including disaster recovery status. This screen lists available operations for the group. | |
This section discusses the second method of displaying resiliency group information and status: using the Assets page. The Assets page gives you a quick overview of all your resiliency groups.
To display resiliency group information and status
- Navigate
Assets (navigation pane) > Resiliency Groups tab
- Review information and status
For a quick health check of your resiliency groups, review the colored boxes above the table. Select a box to show only the resiliency groups in that category; for example, select the green square to display only the resiliency groups that are healthy.
Blue
The total number of resiliency groups
Yellow
The number of resiliency groups at risk
Green
The number of resiliency groups that are healthy
By default, the table lists all resiliency groups. Use the drop-list and search field to filter your results, and select a table heading to sort the groups.
In the table, the key fields are State, Service Objective, and Data Availability. Possible states are:
Status
Normal - the assets within the resiliency group are normal.
At Risk - the assets within the resiliency group are at risk.
State
Online - The assets within the resiliency group are running.
Partial - One or more of the assets in the resiliency group are offline.
Offline - The assets in the resiliency group are powered off or not running.
Active DC
Name of the active data center.
Type
Application Group: The resiliency group comprises of applications.
Virtual Machine Group: The resiliency group comprises of virtual machines.
Service Objective
Service objective selected for the resiliency group.
Data Availability
Resiliency Platform supports several replication technologies.
If no replication type is shown, consider configuring replication.
