Even though the StorageGRID system can continue to operate when errors occur or parts of the grid are unavailable, you should monitor and address potential issues before they affect the grid's efficiency or availability.

Before you begin
  • You are signed in to the Grid Manager using a supported web browser.

  • You have specific access permissions.
