The intention of “Needs your attention” is to bring focus on three key events that you should keep an eye on:

  1. Anomalies
  2. Stopped services
  3. Errors

Anomalies in “Needs your attention” show the most important anomalies of high & critical level. 

Stopped services shows services with stopped status. 

Errors show event log errors of critical status. 

Clicking “Investigate” allows you to see more details of the event and investigate further. Clicking “X” will remove the event from the “Needs your attention” module, but not from the Events tab.


Clicking the node name in the Hall of Shame will take you to the node in the topology where metrics and further details are available for troubleshooting.
