Customizing the System Status panel
NOTE: Customizations done to the System Status panel are also displayed in the system status pop-up
window. To minimize the System Status panel, click the minimize icon ( ) in the upper right corner of the
panel title bar. To maximize the System Status panel, click the maximize icon ( ) in the upper right corner
of the panel title bar. To open the System Status panel in a new window, click the Open in New Window

Customize the System Status panel to display the following status information:
Uncleared Event Status A count that indicates the number of
uncleared event statuses
that are Critical,
Major, Minor, and Normal for any given system collection. Each number is a hyperlink to a detailed
list of events with that particular status. By clicking the number, an event collection appears with those
particular events and their corresponding systems.
Health Status A count that indicates the number of systems, in a given system collection, that have a
system health status
that is Critical, Major, Minor, and Normal. Each number is a hyperlink to a detailed
list of systems with that particular status. By clicking the number, a system collection appears with those
particular systems. Health status is not shown by default but can be configured to appear.
NOTE: The system health status information displays only when it is customized to display the
system health status.
Alarm An alarm can be customized to appear for specific criteria for any given system collection.
The alarm alerts you that a particular criterion has been met by one or more systems in that collection.
For example, you might receive an alarm that a storage system has a critical uncleared event, or critical
health status. Because the System Status panel is continually updated, the alarm appears until the
event is cleared, the system is removed from the collection, or the alarm customization is changed so
that it no longer applies. If the System Status panel is collapsed, and an alarm occurs, it opens
automatically so that the alarm is visible. You can collapse the panel, but it continues to open as long
