Systems Information

Systems information is displayed on the System widgets.

The Systems widget displays general information about the specific device that you selected from the drop-down list at the top of the widget. If the system is a cluster, you can select a device in the cluster to display on the widget.This widget gives you a quick status if any issues are present in any of the device’s components through color indicators; green (running), amber (warning), or red (alert).

Note:  Ensure that all the nodes and clusters have a Box ID defined. If the Box ID is missing, the Systems widget may not display any information relating to the node.

Note:  Red alert appears for cards not present.

Failure to Authenticate

To view a physical node in the Dashboard System pane, your login credentials must have the appropriate permissions. Otherwise, GigaVUE‑FM shows an error message.

There are two possibilities that caused a user authentication error:

■

The login user credential for GigaVUE‑FM is not “admin”.

■

The password associated with the login user name for GigaVUE‑FM is different for the physical device.

Note:  When a “non-admin” user goes to Physical Nodes page, they are able to view displayed physical nodes with the status as Green, Amber or Red, this is because the physical node information is captured using the default “admin” user role.
