Health
The Health tab is a live overview of a host. It surfaces the most important problems first and shows real-time resource usage and the status of every monitored service.
This tab covers:
Top issues - ranked list of detected problemsLatest reports - investigation reports for this hostHost monitoring - CPU, memory, swap, and disk graphsServices - status of every monitored service check
Top issues
A ranked list of the most important problems detected on the host. Each issue shows a severity (CRITICAL / HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW / INFO) and a category (PERFORMANCE / AVAILABILITY / SECURITY / STABILITY). Expand an issue to see what is happening, a recommended fix, and links to open the related investigation reports.
Tip
The list is ordered by importance, and not every issue is equally urgent. Start with CRITICAL and HIGH - these affect availability, performance or security right now. MEDIUM, LOW and INFO are worth knowing about but rarely need immediate action; handle them during normal maintenance.
When nothing has been detected, the panel is empty and reports that there are no top issues for the host.
Latest reports
The most recent investigation reports for the host, newest first. Open a report to read its full details, or download the Portable Document Format (PDF) when available.
When you open a report, its address appears in the browser URL, so the report is bookmarkable and shareable. Use the Link button in the report header to copy that address to your clipboard (the button confirms with Copied). Anyone who opens the copied link, and who has access to the host, lands on the Health tab with the same report already open.
Tip
Paste the link into a support ticket or a message to a colleague so they see the exact report you are looking at, instead of describing it.
Host monitoring
Resource-usage cards for the four things that most often cause a slow or failing site. Each card shows a current percentage, an OK / Warning / Critical status, and a graph. Use the 1H / 8H / 1D / 7D buttons to change the time range (1 hour to 7 days). The view refreshes automatically.
Tip
Use the 7-day (7D) view to tell a one-off spike from a steady trend. A single short spike is usually harmless; a line that climbs day after day needs attention.
Services
A list of all monitored service checks for the host - for example the database, web server, cache and connectivity checks. Each check shows its status (OK, Warning, Critical or Unknown), the latest output from the check, and when it last ran. An Unknown status means the check could not determine the service state, for example because it did not return a result.
A check in Warning, Critical or Unknown state is the place to start when something is wrong: the output usually names the exact problem (for example a service that is not running, or a certificate about to expire). Many issues can be resolved from the command-line tool or by publishing a corrected configuration.
Tip
The Health tab covers one host. For an overview across all your hosts, use Monitoring. For how monitoring works, see Monitoring (concepts).
