collection appears with those particular systems. Health status is not shown by default but can
be configured to appear.
NOTE: The system health status information appears only when it is customized to display
the system health status.
• Alarm
You can customize an alarm 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. For example, you might receive an alarm that a storage system has a critical
uncleared event or critical health status. Because the System 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 separate window and remains open until you close it.
NOTE: If the System Status panel is customized to have no status displayed, the timestamp does
not display.
