F5 rSeries Dashboard Overview

The system dashboard displays relevant system information when you log in to the webUI. F5OS webUIs fully support the latest versions of Chrome and Firefox browsers at the time of each F5OS release.

The dashboard includes these sections:

Section Description
System Summary Shows information about available vCPUs, deployed vCPUs, system storage, memory utilization, hostname, IP address, product name, software versions, and system uptime.
Memory Utilization: Provides memory utilization stats of both System/Platform and Tenant.
Note: Tenant memory utilization stats show only the memory allocated to deployed tenants. Provisioned and configured tenants do not have memory assigned; hence they are not considered while calculating the stats.
Storage Utilization: Provides a granular view of the system, F5OS images, and tenants storage utilization. The F5OS Tenant Disks represent the storage available for cBIP tenants. When a cBIP tenant is created, it uses the storage from F5OS Tenant Disks. You can use the category filter to sort the storage utilization by each category.
Network Shows the current state for all system interfaces (ports) and displays port mappings.
CPU Displays information about vCPU allocation and its utilization.
CPU Allocation: Shows the vCPUs allocation categorized into four different categories:
- Tenants: vCPUs allocated to tenant and used by the tenant.
- F5OS Data Mover: vCPUs allocated and used by F5OS Data Movers at the F5OS platform layer.
- F5OS Dedicated: vCPUs allocated and used by the F5OS platform layer.
- F5OS: vCPUs available for tenant deployment and used by F5OS platform layer since the vCPUs are not assigned to any tenants.
The horizontal bar chart shows the percentage at which the vCPUs are allocated between F5OS, Tenants, F5OS Data Mover, and F5OS Dedicated. Hovering over the bar chart displays the allocated vCPU thread IDs for each category.
A grid chart shows the total vCPU count for the system and the vCPU IDs pinned to either F5OS, Tenants, F5OS Data Mover, and F5OS Dedicated. Hovering over the grid chart displays the vCPUs mapping.
Note: Grid and horizontal bar chart are dynamically adjusted based on the platform to reflect the actual number of vCPUs available for the platform.
CPU Utilization: Shows real-time information about CPU utilization using a bar chart with hover text. Select Tenants or F5OS to filter the display. The filtered chart will display vCPUs reserved by the filtered F5OS platform layer (F5OS Data Mover, F5OS Dedicated, F5OS) or tenant. This feature is supported only by specific software versions.
Active Alarms Shows system alerts that have occurred recently. The system updates the alarms every few seconds, displaying the source of the alert, its severity, a brief description of what occurred, and when it happened.
Tenant Overview Lists an overview of tenant deployments on the system, including type, number of vCPUs in use by the tenant, memory data, virtual disk size, VLANs, state, status, and management IP addresses. Click a tenant name to view tenant deployment details. The IP address can be clicked to open the login screen of the tenant in a new browser window. The Manage button lists all tenants on a separate screen, with paging if needed.
