Health The Heath Tab shows the health of the system. Probes represent the health of each component on the system. A component can have one or more probes representing various health aspects of the component. For example, each pool will have a probe for the status of the pool as well as a probe for the capacity of the pool. When a probe detects an issue, it will create alarms that can be viewed in the Health Tab. Each alarm has an associated severity. Currently, alarm severities include Warning, Error, and Critical. The behavior of an alarm depends on the type of probe that generated the alarm. There are currently two types of probes. The first (and most common) type of probe is a sensor. Sensors generate alarms based on a measured value. Alarms caused by sensor probes will automatically clear themselves once the condition that caused the alarm has ceased. The other type of probe is a Log probe. Log probes generate alarms based on values observed from a log file on the system. Unlike sensor probes, alarms generated by log probes do not resolve themselves. Instead, they must be explicitly acknowledged by the operator. Accessing the Health Tab To access the Health tab, complete the following steps: In the Connections pane, select an appliance. In the Details pane, select the Health tab. By default, probes are grouped by the component associated with the probe. To show each probe individually, uncheck the Group by Component checkbox at the top of the Health tab. The list of probes can also be filtered by alarm severity or name. Clicking on the Minimum Severity dropdown allows you to change the minimum alarm severity (or select All to show all probes, including those without any alarms). To filter by a name, enter the name of the probe in the Search box. To show muted probes, check the Show Muted checkbox. Health Tasks Showing Probe Details To show probe details, locate the probe in the probe table. Click on the symbol to expand the probe details. Clicking on the symbol will collapse the probe details. Clicking on the Details button will open a window displaying a JSON definition of the probe (including the event history). To copy the probe details as JSON to the clipboard, click the Copy button. Acknowledging an Alarm Unlike sensor-based probes, log-based probes must be acknowledged to clear an alarm. To acknowledge an alarm, complete the following steps: Locate the probe corresponding to the alarm in the probe table. Click on the gear () icon besides the component name. Select Ack. Muting a Probe Muting a probe prevents webhooks from being invoked as well as prevents email alerts from being sent. To mute a probe, complete the following steps: Locate the probe to mute in the probe table. Click on the gear icon () beside the component name. Select Mute Select the desired duration to mute the probe. This can be forever (until explicitly unmuted) or for a duration of up to a year. By default, the probe will be unmuted if the severity of the probe changes. To disable this behavior, uncheck the Unmute if severity changes box. Click Mute Alternatively, one can expand the probe details and click the Mute button from the expanded probe details. Pruning A Stale Probe When a probe stops reporting data, it becomes stale. This is a rare occurence and normally shouldn’t be encountered. When this does occur, a Prune option will appear when clicking the gear () icon. Clicking on the Prune option will remove the stale probe.
