Monitor VOS Devices and Organizations

Versa-logo-release-icon.pngFor supported software information, click here.

From a Director node, you can monitor the Director node itself, provider organizations, tenants, and Versa Operating SystemTM (VOSTM) devices. You can view events and alarms generated by VOS devices, and you can create events and assign a status to each event. This article describes how to monitor devices and organizations.

The Director node, in conjunction with Versa Analytics, can poll VOS devices in real time to gain insight into what is happening on the devices. You can display this real-time information to gather information and to assist in troubleshooting. For information about real-time monitoring, see Monitor VOS Devices in Real Time.
