Viewing the overview of a Business Application
You can use the Management Server console to view a summary of the status of a Business Application.
The Overview tab includes status panels for the following:
-
Service Availability: Shows information about whether high availability clusters are configured, whether disaster recovery is configured, and the status of clusters and related objects, as follows:
-
Health: Determined by the state of service groups and clusters that provide high availability.
-
Hidden Risks: Determined by service groups in a frozen state or critical resources that are not enabled.
-
Stability: Determined by the number of unplanned failovers within the last seven days.
-
-
Data Availability: Shows information about replication and snapshots and shows the status of storage assets.
-
Health: Determined by the status of volumes and file systems, disks, and Replicated Volume Groups (RVGs).
-
Hidden Risks: Determined by amount of data redundancy using volume snapshots and file system copies.
-
Stability: Applies only if VVR is configured. Stability is determined by the amount of the Storage Replicator Log (SRL) lag.
-
-
SAN Connectivity: Shows information on whether redundancy is configured for the storage I/O paths. Redundancy includes multi-pathing at the host level and single point of failure at the switch or fabric level. The availability of switch and fabric information depends on whether Fabric Insight Add-on is configured.
-
Health: Determined by switch level or fabric level failures or by disks in a multipathing degrade state.
-
Hidden Risks: Determined by the number of disks without I/O redundancy configured.
-
The Overview tab also includes charts, including Storage Distribution (by vendor) and Storage Usage (Raw, Usable, Consumed), and an activity log.
You can view this information related to the hosts for which your user group has at least Guest role explicitly assigned or inherited from a parent Organization. You can also view the information if your user group has at least Guest role assigned on the Server perspective.
