The Default Dashboard is the home page for
the Protector user interface.
It displays summary information about system status including jobs, RPO, data flows, alerts
and backups. It also provides links to the underlying pages where more detailed information
can be found.
Note: When accessing the
underlying pages from the Dashboard, a filter is automatically applied to the target page so
that only the items indicated are displayed.
For example, if 5 Errors are indicated on the Alerts tile, clicking the corresponding text will open the Logs page from the Dashboard with a filter applied such that only error level logs are displayed.
