Dashboard

The Dashboard is displayed after logging in to the system. On the Dashboard, statistics on the use of resources, such as CPU, memory, storage, storage IOPS, bandwidth and health of the cloud, are presented.

Resource statistics are visualized in the form of bars and charts that provide the following information.

Resource	Used	Total
CPU Usage	The percentage of virtual cores used by the system.	The total amount of CPU cores available in the system.
Memory	The percentage of memory used by the system.	The total amount of memory (GB) available in the system.
Storage	The percentage of storage space used by the system.	The total amount of storage space (GB) available in the system.

Resource	Chart
Storage IOPS	The Storage IOPS chart displays peaks of reads and writes I/O per second, in real time.
Health	The Health chart displays the total number of actions, including statuses of success, warnings or failures for a selected period of time. The available time periods that can be selected are: 'This Month', 'This Week', or 'Today'.
CPU Usage	The CPU Usage chart displays the peaks of CPU usage (%) in real time.
Bandwidth Usage	The Bandwidth Usage chart displays the peaks of Traffic In/Out usage in MegaBits Per Second (MBPS) in real time.

The first two resource widgets are reporting the health status of the physical resources of the cluster, including the actual nodes as well as the physical disks:

Resource	Description	Action
Compute Nodes	The number of physical nodes, including their health status	View all
Physical Disks	The number of physical disks of the system, including their health status	View all

The next four widgets report on the health status of the cluster, and provide the following immediate actions:

Resource	Description	Action
Networks	The number of available networks, including their status	Add new network
Datastores	The number of available datastores, including their status	Add new datastore
Instances	The number of available instances, including their status	Add new instance
Clusters	The number of available clusters, including their status	Add new cluster

The user is able to review the resources of each node (CPU Usage , Storage and Instances), by clicking on the hexagon-shaped button corresponding to each node, as illustrated in the following image:
