Period Summary

Click a card in the period summary above the tabs to filter the content displayed. The exception is Live sessions.

  • Live sessions: number of sessions being recorded and number of provision nodes involved.

  • Recorded sessions: number of sessions recorded during the period, total recorded duration, and change compared with the previous period. The “opened in the period” mention counts only the sessions that started during the period; the others started earlier (for example the day before) and continued.

  • Commands: number of commands entered, number of sessions involved, number of URLs visited, and change compared with the previous period.

  • Alerts: number of alerts by severity (high, medium), number of alerts to review (those whose session has not been opened since), and change compared with the previous period.

  • Storage: storage mode (for example SMB), percentage of space used, and amount used out of the total.
