Dell PowerProtect DD Management Center (DDMC) 7.9 Installation and Administration Guide

Checking health status

The Health > Status page displays information about potential operational problems, such as connection status, replication status, and alerts.

The Systems/Groups/Tenants icons at the upper right let you show all Data Domain and PowerProtect systems and systems organized by group or Tenant assignment.

LED colors indicate:

  • Red – error or problem
  • Yellow – error or warning
  • Green – normal operation
  • Gray – disabled components
  • Gray "Empty Socket" – non-licensed components
NOTE If a system is unreachable – but not disabled or non-licensed – the last known state of the LED is displayed. An unreachable, or not transmitting system may still be operational for backups, restore, and replication, but it is not communicating with DDMC.

For all three views:

  • Hover the cursor over a gray LED in the Replication column to get a link to the Replication Overview, showing the pairs related to this system or Tenant Unit.
  • Hover the cursor over a red/yellow LED in the Alerts column to get a link to open the Alerts page.
  • Use the Sort Ascending option for the Connection Status column to find connection problems on systems.
  • If the File System is destroyed or disabled, a red LED is displayed. As a result of this non-activity, Protocols and Replication are affected and display a red LED as well.

For the Systems or Groups views:

  • Hover the cursor over an "empty socket" LED to get a link to view DD System Manager.
  • The System Details control (upper-left) launches the System Details Lightbox for the selected system.

For the Tenants view:

  • When a system is offline, the Tenant Units in that system become offline as well, and the Tenant Unit offline icon is displayed in the Tenant Unit tree.
  • Unmanaged Tenant Units, MTrees, and Storage Units that do not belong to a Tenant Unit, are not displayed.
  • Only Tenants and Tenant Units that belong to the current user are displayed.
  • The Tenant Unit Details control (upper-left) launches the Tenant Unit Details Lightbox for the selected Tenant Unit.
