Viewing the PDU Information
The PDU information screen is divided into two parts. The top region consists of dashlets that provide you a general overview of the system. The main region displays more detailed information of the PDU.
The first dashlet in the first series displays the summary of the PDU. It displays PDU model, part number, serial number, IP address, firmware version, count of modules and status of SNMP communication with PDU. If EM Agent can communicate with PDU using SNMP, there is a green tick, if it cannot, there is a red cross.
The second dashlet in the first series displays all the open incidents relayed on the PDU. Click on one of the displayed numbers to view the list of incidents of a given severity.
The third dashlet in the first series displays the power usage of the PDU. It displays a summary of the power (current) in amperes per phase of all the modules of the PDU.
The first dashlet in the second series displays the last configuration changes made on the PDU. It also displays the time when the last incident was raised.
