You can use reports to monitor the state of the StorageGRID system and troubleshoot problems. The types of reports available in the Grid Manager include pie charts (on the Dashboard only), graphs, and text reports.
More information
Types of charts
In addition to the summary pie charts shown on the Dashboard, you can access more detailed graphs that present the data with the attribute value (vertical axis) over a specified time span (horizontal axis).
Chart legend
The lines and colors used to draw charts have specific meaning.
Displaying charts
The Nodes page contains the charts you should access regularly to monitor attributes such as storage capacity and throughput. In some cases, especially when working with technical support, you might use the Grid Topology tree to access additional charts.
Generating charts
Charts display a graphical representation of attribute data values. You can report on a data center site, grid node, component, or service.
Types of text reports
Text reports display a textual representation of attribute data values that have been processed by the NMS service. There are two types of reports generated depending on the time period you are reporting on: raw text reports for periods less than a week, and aggregate text reports for time periods greater than a week.
Generating text reports
Text reports display a textual representation of attribute data values that have been processed by the NMS service. You can report on a data center site, grid node, component, or service.
Exporting text reports
Exported text reports open a new browser tab, which enables you to select and copy the data.
