Health
The Health section displays the health of all OMIVV-managed hosts and chassis. All hosts displayed here are configured using the same
Platform Service Controller (PSC).
The status of each host and chassis refreshes after the completion of a periodic health metric task or SNMP event from host and chassis.
The following list describes the different states of the hosts and the chassis:
• Healthy—Displays the count of host and chassis that are in healthy state.
• Warning—Displays the count of host and chassis that require corrective action, but do not immediately affect the system.
• Critical—Displays the count of host and chassis that have critical issues with one or more components and require immediate action.
• Unknown—Displays the count of host and chassis that are in unknown state. The host or chassis shows Unknown state when the
host or chassis is not reachable or health state is unknown.
To view more information about hosts, on the Dashboard page, under the Health section, click VIEW HOST.
To view more information about chassis, on the Dashboard page, under the Health section, click VIEW CHASSIS.
