Health Dashboard - Available information

Introduction

The information displayed in the Health Dashboard is derived from snapshots generated by the CAST Administrator and provides a high level and intuitive overview of your set of Applications.

Note that the Health Dashboard features a server cache to improve the speed of data display. This does mean, however, that very recent changes in data (i.e. a new snapshot generation) may not instantly appear in the dashboard. If this is the case, the server cache needs to be manually reloaded. See Reload the cache.
