Table 30. Transactions view
The Web Monitor Environment view displays a high-level overview of your monitored environment. The view has two tiles, each representing the monitored objects of interest Transactions and Locations.
Each tile shows how many of the corresponding object instances there are in your monitored infrastructure, as well as the count of objects of that type in each of the alarm states Normal 
, Warning 
, Critical 
, or Fatal 
). For example, the following image shows six transactions: none in the Fatal or Critical states, one in Warning, and one the Normal state.
You can move the tiles by dragging and dropping until you achieve the desired layout. To hide one or more tiles, on the tool bar on the right, click 
, and in the popup that appears, click a tile that you want to hide.
Clicking the object type icon, the object type name, or the object count, shows summary information for that object type in the Quick View. Clicking an alarm state (for example, Warning) on a tile displays summary information in the Quick View for the objects of that type that are in the selected alarm state. If an alarm state has a count of zero, then you can not drill down on the alarm state.
This view appears in the upper part of the Performance Browser, just above the Quick View.

Expected Content: If content validation is enabled for the agent instance that monitors this URL, and the expected content type is HTML-based, this is indicated in this column. Also, a text string could be used such as “laptop” and type laptop into this column. In case the monitoring agent detects binary content or the text string at this address, the validation fails and the agent logs an error message.

Unexpected Content: If unexpected content validation is enabled for the agent instance that monitors this URL, and the unexpected content type is HTML-based, this is indicated in this column.
