The Physical Machines Page

The Physical Machines page enables you to manage the physical machines (PMs) in the ztC Edge system. (PMs are also referred to as nodes.) To open this page, click Physical Machines in the left-hand navigation panel.

State, Activity, Name, Model, and # of VMs columns appear immediately under the PHYSICAL MACHINES heading and masthead. To manage a specific PM, click node0 (primary) or node1 (if it exists) under Name. To interpret PM states and activities, see Physical Machine States and Activities. To display information about a node, you can use the snmptable command; see Obtaining System Information with snmptable.

The bottom pane displays action buttons for and details about the selected node:

Action buttons: Various action buttons appear, with inactive buttons grayed out, depending upon the state of the selected node. To perform most maintenance tasks, click Work On, which places a node into maintenance mode (for information, see Maintenance Mode). To learn about additional PM actions available in maintenance mode, see Physical Machine Actions or the help topic for the task you want to complete.
Detailed information: To view detailed information or statistics about the selected node, click one of the following tabs:
- Summary (in the initial display), which displays information about the node, such as (if applicable) the manufacturer, the model, serial number, overall state, activity, and configuration (memory and logical disks) for the selected node.
- Description, which displays a window where you can enter information about the node.
- Storage, which displays the state, logical ID, size, and size used of storage. It also displays the remaining life of SSD drives.
- Network, which displays the state, name, speed, and MAC address of networks.
- Sensors, which displays information about the name and current state of sensors, including information about voltage and about a battery voltage check.
- Virtual Machines, which displays the state, activity, and name of virtual machines.
- USB Devices, which lists any USB devices inserted in the node.
- Monitor, which provides information about the system (for example, CPU usage and memory utilization). For information, see Monitoring the ztC Edge System.
