The Monitor home page is intended to provide a current,
high-level overview of the license environment being monitored.
This includes a section for some basic utilization and wait time statistics, a
customized view section, and a section that shows the status of the most active
license servers. Clicking on the headers takes you to each header's respective page.
Current Status
The first section on the home page shows some high-level utilization and wait time
statistics for the moment of time at which the home page was loaded. The statistics
are divided into two categories: "Current Utilization" and "Current Wait": Figure 1. Home Page: Statistics Section
Each category is further broken down into a collection of top metrics. This allows
you to see the most used features, the most active users, and the features that are
the largest bottlenecks. The features and users that show up in these sections are
links, which can be clicked on to obtain details about the statistic.
My View Section
The My View section shows the configured default view for the current authenticated
user. A view is a pre-configured collection of tag and/or feature
filters that are presented in a table for convenience. Views can be created and/or
edited in the Views tab. Clicking on My View navigates to
this page. Figure 2. Home Page: My View Section
License Server Section
The final section shown on the home page is the license servers section. This section
shows the most active license servers, their status, and some basic statistics about
the server such as the number of features served by the server, the number of
checkouts that are currently active on the server, and the last time the server was
sampled by Monitor for data collection. Figure 3. Home Page: License Servers Section
