You can view all devices, device groups, clusters, and stacks added on the SMS, whether the device is currently managed or unmanaged.
Each device has a status condition that provides a high-level indication of system health, performance, and port health. Status conditions are color-coded and have associated icons so that you can quickly identify and respond to device status.
If the device is functioning properly, the System Health, Performance, and Port Health status indicators are green. If a device has issues with its health status, the status indicators change color, and the device is listed on the Devices Requiring Attention panel. If a device is unmanaged, a message is displayed under the System Health, Performance, and Port Health.
To monitor your devices, log in to the SMS web management console, and from the navigation panel click the Devices icon and select All Devices. The All Devices page displays the following information.
