About Dashboards

The Dashboard is your home page on Grid Manager. It provides easy access to tasks and a quick view to the status of your Grid and core network services. Grid Manager provides the following dashboards:

• Tasks: The Tasks dashboard contains task packs that provide easy access to commonly performed tasks. A task pack is a collection of tasks that belong to a specific service or function, such as IPAM or Automation. For information, see The Tasks Dashboard.
• Status: A status dashboard contains widgets from which you can view and manage DNS, DHCP, and IPAM status and data. You can configure multiple status dashboards for managing a large number of Grid members. For information, see Status Dashboards.
• Reporting Clustering Status: The Reporting Clustering Status dashboard displays the reporting clustering status. This tab is displayed only if you have configured reporting clustering. For information, see
