Health-Workload Scoreboard Widget
The Health-Workload Scoreboard widget shows the health or workload score of selected resources. The icons
for each resource are color coded. Green indicates best performance, which is 100 for health or 0 for workload.
Red indicates worst performance, which is 0 for health or 100 for workload.
