About the Global View Page

About the Global View Page

The Global View page displays a dashboard of operating statistics for all of the DR Series systems that you have added to the view. From this page, you can monitor the status of your enterprise as well as easily navigate to any DR Series system in your enterprise.

Figure 9. Global View Page (DR4100 System)

This figure shows a DR4100 system with the Global View page listing four DR systems.

Global View Summary

NOTE: If an alert is displayed with a message that "Member units will fail to connect because non-Active Directory credentials were used", see Prerequisites.

The following table describes the statistics available in the Global View Summary:

 
NOTE: The statistical values refresh every 15 seconds.
 
NOTE: If you used the command line interface (CLI) to join the DR Series system into the Active Directory domain, you may notice Global View contains multiple, unnecessary entries. Dell recommends that you use the DR Series system GUI (and not CLI commands) for Global View related operations, including domain join/leave.
