Click the button next to the workspace or press the HOME key to select a zoom level that allows the entire data flow to fit within the bounds of the workspace. |
 Node |
Select a node to view its details and current activity in the areas below and to the right. Source nodes, movers and destination nodes are represented by icons representing their type (see Node Type Icons). |
Status Badge (E.g.  ) |
A status badge may be superimposed on a node, or above a mover, to indicate that the node is in a particular state. Refer to Monitor Status Badges for a description of each badge. Nodes that cannot be contacted by the master are displayed in red (either because no network connection can be made or because the Protector services are not running on the node). |
 Snapshot Badge |
A snapshot badge may be superimposed on a node (in the bottom right corner) to indicate that the node has a policy containing a snapshot operation applied to it. |
 Connector |
Connectors between node indicate the direction and type of mover:
Select a connector to view its details in the area to the right. A badge may be superimposed above a connector to indicate a particular state. Refer to Monitor Status Badges for a description of each badge. Note: For some replication data flows it is possible to swap the direction. The arrowhead on the monitor data flow connector does not change direction when the replication is swapped.
