System messages
When you need to track down problems occurring in the system, the Message Center is the place to start your investigation. This feature allows you to view the messages that the system continually generates about system activities and status.
Message center access and display
To open the Message Center, click the System Status icon, next to the Deploy button on the home page. This icon changes based on the system status:
-
Error (
): Indicates one or more errors and any number of warnings are present on the system. -
Warning (
): Indicates one or more warnings and no errors are present on the system. -
Success (
): Indicates no warnings or errors are present on the system.
If a number is displayed with the icon, it indicates the total current number of error or warning messages.
To close the Message Center, click anywhere outside of it within the web interface.
The web interface also displays pop-up notifications in response to your actions and ongoing system activities. Some pop-up notifications automatically disappear after five seconds, while others are "sticky," meaning they display until you explicitly dismiss them by clicking Dismiss (
). Click the Dismiss link at the top of the notifications list to dismiss all notifications at once.
Tip | Hovering your cursor over a non-sticky pop-up notification causes it to be sticky. |
The system determines which messages it displays to users in pop-up notifications and the Message Center based on their licenses, domains, and access roles.
