Click on the Globe icon on the left panel, to see live Performance metrics on all your NonStop Servers in a summary format. Note that the title bar for each NonStop uses color to point out alert conditions. Color may be white: all is ok, yellow: warning alert, or red: Major alert.
Starting from (H01AAE-L01AAF), Ticker will not be available. WVP E ships with 6 Metrics/Frame options to choose from: CPU, Process, Disk, TMF, Network, & CLIM.
Dash Settings are saved on NonStop, per Guardian logon ID. Logon ID of 0,0 is the default everyone gets on initial logon. This is shipped by Idelji. Any user can make adjustments, and have their own individual settings when they save.
Display
The Performance Summary display can be customized by clicking the = icon.
Starting from H01AAE-L01AAF versions, by default, the dashboard layout is a 2-row, 6 entity setting with a display of both Live & Trend graphs. Within the settings screen, users can perform the following operations.
- Add upto 4 rows and 4 widgets per each row.
- Drag and drop widgets using pointer
- Remove widgets from the Dashboard
- Modify widget settings
Adding Rows and Widgets:
User can control the number of rows to be displayed by clicking on the dropdown list for Rows and can select upto 4 rows.
Click on the plus icon on the left to add a Widget to a row. Widget setting is displayed for the user to choose from available metrics and what should be displayed.
Click on the Plus again to add a second widget. Up to 4 widgets per row are allowed. At 4, Plus icon will be disabled.
Reset discards all the changes made before saving them. Once the settings are changes and saved to your desired settings, Reset will not switch it to the default.
The drag and drop function:
Move the widgets anywhere you want by simply dragging them with your pointer on icon.
Remove Widgets:
You can remove a widget by clicking on the icon at the top right corner of each widget frame.
Modify Widget settings:
On the main live Dash, a new setting icon will also be displayed for each frame. A click on that icon displays the above window enabling the user to make any necessary changes.
Below 2 sections are applicable for H01AAA-L01AAB & H01AAC-L01AAD versions.
- Monitor – graph widgets showing performance metrics
- Select the zero or more Entities to display. Each entity corresponds to a graph widget
- Specify whether the widgets will be displayed in one or two rows. The widgets are evenly distributed if 2 rows are selected.
- Ticker – select the type of information to show on the ticker
- What:
- CPU and/or Process
- Show only those CPU/Processes that are above Minor or Major thresholds
- What:
Ticker (Applicable for versions H01AAA-L01AAB & H01AAC-L01AAD).
In addition to bell icon indicators, you can monitor the warning and critical threshold breaches using the ticker. The ticker can show Processes and/or CPUs that have breached warning or critical thresholds.
The ticker at every each interval
-
- If all is OK then check mark is shown next to the interval timestamp (hh:mm:ss)
- Otherwise If at least one Process or CPU (depending on the selection) has breached the threshold, then the interval time display is followed by one section per CPU. Each Section:
-
- Has a CPU # indicator which is in yellow or red background..
- Per CPU, Process name is displayed (PIN: nnnn if process name is unknown), followed with % busy value
- If above threshold, follow with up or down arrow is displayed, in color matching threshold.
Dash View/Summary
Starting from versions H01AAC-L01AAD: Each panel can be collapsed or expanded. When expanded, you see six graphs (or upto 16 graphs). Each graph has its own panel. The heading of each panel is color coded (white, yellow, or red) to represent alert conditions currently in place for the information it represents. Bell icons (red/yellow) also show the number of alerts for each panel. Click on a bell icon to see details.
By default, there are six panels. Each panel is further divided into Live & Trend views:
-
- CPU:Upper part of the widget (Trend): Per CPU, shows trend of % CPU Busy, CPU Queue Length or CPU Memory over time. Click on a CPU data point at a point in time to see either the list busiest Processes or Processes with the highest Receive queue at that time. Use the slide bar area below the graph to move back and forth in time and expand or contract your view. Click on the S icon on the heading to toggle the scale setting.
Lower part of the widget(Live): Per CPU, shows % CPU Busy (Y1), and Queue Length (Y2) of the most recent interval. % Busy is shown with a 100% cap. Click on any Y1 data point to see a list of top 5 busiest processes on the selected CPU, or on any Y2 data point to see a list of top 5 processes with the highest Receive Queue. On the new Window, click on any Process to see its trend over time. Also from the CPU graph, you may click on the trend icon (upper right) to either see a trend of % CPU Busy, or CPU Queue Length over time. On the new Trend Window, click on a CPU data point at a point in time to see either the list busiest Processes or Processes with the highest Receive queue at that time.

- IPU (Applicable ONLY from Web ViewPoint H01ABQ-L01ABR & Web ViewPoint Plus H01AAI-L01AAJ) – Per CPU,shows a stacked bar of % IPU Busy of IPUs of that CPU (Y1), and Queue Lengths of IPUs of that CPU (Y2) of the most recent interval. % Busy is shown as a multiple of 100% since the IPUs are stacked. Click on the S icon on the heading to toggle the scale setting. Click on any Y1 data point to see a list of top 5 busiest processes on the selected CPU, or on any Y2 data point to see a list of top 5 processes with the highest Receive Queue. On the new Window, click on any Process to see its trend over time. Also from the IPU graph, you may click on the trend icon (upper right) to either see a trend of % CPU Busy, or CPU Queue Length over time.
