Customize the System Status panel to display the following status information:

  • Uncleared Event Status. A count that indicates the number of uncleared event statuses that are Critical, Major, Minor, and Normal for any given system collection. Each number is a hyperlink to a detailed list of events with that particular status. By clicking the number, an event collection appears with those particular events and their corresponding systems.

  • Health Status. A count that indicates the number of systems, in a given system collection, that have a system health status that is Critical, Major, Minor, and Normal. Each number is a hyperlink to a detailed list of systems with that particular status. By clicking the number, a system collection appears with those particular systems. Health status is not shown by default but can be configured to appear.

  • Alarm. An alarm can be customized to appear for specific criteria for any given system collection. The alarm alerts you that a particular criterion has been met by one or more systems in that collection. Because the Status panel is continually updated, the alarm appears until the event is cleared, the system is removed from the collection, or the alarm customization is changed so that it no longer applies. If the System Status panel is collapsed, and an alarm occurs, it opens automatically so that the alarm is visible. You can collapse the panel, but it continues to open as long as the alarm is relevant. To have the panel remain collapsed, you must clear the offending event or system status or reconfigure the status display to no longer display alarms.

  • Legend of Status Icons. To display a list of status icons, click Legend in the System Status panel. Legend information appears in a popup window and remains open until you close it. Refer to System Table View Page - System Status Types for more information on default user templates.

If the System Status panel is customized to have no status displayed, the timestamp does not display.
