Application Detail Widget
The Application Detail widget shows information for a selected application. The top of the widget shows the
number of tiers, resources, and metrics that the application contains and the number of Smart Alerts and classic
alerts on the application. The Application Detail widget does not show information for child resources.
Figure 3-3. Application Detail Widget
For each tier in the application, the Application Detail widget shows the icons for the health of each resource
in that tier, the tier name, the metric sparkline for the last 24 hours, the tier's current health score, and the
number of active Smart Alerts and classic alerts for the tier itself.

widget. You can also configure the column arrangement in the widget.
You can also configure other widgets to provide an application to the Application Detail widget. See “Configure
