What is Global Manager?
A Global Manager system is an SL1 All-In-One Appliance that is configured to aggregate and display data from multiple SL1 systems. A Global Manager system can aggregate data from either All-In-One Appliances, distributed systems, or both.
An SL1 system from which data is aggregated by a Global Manager system is referred to as a stack.
For example, suppose your enterprise includes four data centers and that you have installed an All-In-One Appliance in each data center. Each All-In-One Appliance would monitor the devices in its particular data center. You could then install a Global Manager system that aggregates data from all four of those All-In-One Appliance stacks to provide a global view of all four data centers.
A Global Manager system provides the following functions:
- A Global Manager Stacks page for viewing a list of the stacks in your Global Manager system
- A global Dashboards page for creating and viewing dashboards that display data aggregated from multiple SL1 systems
- A global Events page for viewing events from multiple SL1 systems
- A global Devices page for viewing devices from multiple SL1 systems
- A global Business Services page for viewing business services from multiple SL1 systems
The Global Manager system does not store any aggregated data on its system; all data aggregation functions of a Global Manager system are performed on-demand, and it merely provides a consolidated view of data being monitored and stored across multiple SL1 stacks. Similarly, it does not have any configuration or administrative capabilities. All configuration and administrative tasks must be completed on the stacks themselves.
Not all SL1 features are available on a Global Manager system. Only the features described above are available in a Global Manager system.
