Managing deployments in Cloudera Edge Management

Learn about the Dashboard page in Cloudera Edge Management, which provides a centralized view for monitoring and managing C2 server and agent deployments. It is the default landing page in the Edge Flow Manager UI.

The Dashboard combines monitoring and operational capabilities in a single view. It allows you to track agent health, flow updates, and command status in real time and access agent class details.

To access the Dashboard, click Monitor in the left navigation pane.


Agent class list

The Dashboard provides the following information for each agent class:

Status
Indicates the overall health of agents in an agent class, based on heartbeat activity:
  • Good Health: Recent heartbeats are received from all agents in the agent class.
  • Concerning Health: Some agents have not sent a heartbeat within the time period defined by the efm.monitor.maxHeartbeatInterval.
  • Bad Health: No agents have sent a heartbeat in the given class for the time period defined in theefm.monitor.maxHeartbeatInterval.
  • Unknown Health: The agents in the class may not yet be registered, or the heartbeat intervals cannot be determined.

An orange dot next to the status icon indicates there are alerts associated with the agent class.

Possible alert messages:
  • A recent heartbeat has not been received for [a number of] agents. - You can click View Recent Alerts to learn more about the issue.

  • Errors occurred during previous flow publishing. - This lists the most frequent errors since the last publish. The number in brackets indicates how many times the error occurred. You can click View Errors to learn more about the issue.

  • Agent Class contains agents with expiring certification within 30 days. - This notifies you that the certification of an agent will expire soon and you should renew it. You can click View Recent Alerts to learn more about the issue. Once the renewal is addressed, the alert disappears.

Class Name

Displays the name of the agent class.

Number of Agents

Shows the total count of assigned agents including both online and missing agents for the given agent class.

Last Flow Updated
