Cluster Monitor summarizes the state of various objects in a cluster and provides access to in-depth information about these objects in Cluster Explorer. The right pane of a Cluster Monitor panel displays the connection status (online, offline, up, or down) of service groups, systems, and heartbeats. The left pane of a Cluster Monitor panel displays three icons representing service groups, systems, and heartbeats.
The colors of the icons indicate the state of the cluster:
A flashing red slash indicates that the Cluster Manager failed to connect to the cluster and will attempt to connect to another system in the cluster.
A flashing yellow slash indicates that the Cluster Manager is experiencing problems with the connection to the cluster.
Point to an icon to access the icon's ScreenTip, which provides additional information on the specific VCS object.
To review detailed information about VCS objects in Cluster Explorer, Logs, and Command Center, right-click a panel to access a menu. Menus are enabled when the Cluster Monitor display appears in the default expanded view. If you activate a menu on a collapsed, scrolling view of Cluster Monitor, the scrolling stops while it accesses the menu.
