Availability and Health Widgets
Availability and health widgets show whether your monitors are up, down, or degraded, and how long they have stayed that way. Use them to build dashboards that surface outages, at-risk resources, and monitors under maintenance without having to open individual monitor pages.
Applications Manager groups ten widgets under this category, ranging from a simple current-status snapshot to heat maps, uptime trackers, and ADDM dependency views.
Availability & Health Status - Multiple Monitors
Shows the current availability and health status for a hand-picked set of monitors, side by side, in a single widget. Use this when you want a fixed list of critical servers or applications to always stay visible on a dashboard, regardless of how the rest of your infrastructure is organized into monitor groups.
