The global status represents the overall status of a particular host. The status can have one of three possible values: OK, Warning, or Error. You can find global status on the Hosts Overview page. The status displays a small icon next to host name and has a color that corresponds with the status. Hovering over the icon renders a tooltip with sub-status information to quickly find out more details. To view the global status for a host, in the {ProjectWebUI}, navigate to Hosts > All Hosts.
- OK
-
No errors were reported by any sub-status. This status is highlighted with the color green.
- Warning
-
While no error was detected, some sub-status raised a warning. For example, there are no configuration management reports for the host even though the host is configured to send reports. It is a good practice to investigate any warnings to ensure that your deployment remains healthy. This status is highlighted with the color yellow.
- Error
-
Some sub-status reports a failure. For example, a run contains some failed resources. This status is highlighted with the color red.
If you want to search for hosts according to their status, use the syntax for searching in {Project} that is outlined in the {AdministeringDocURL}Searching_and_Bookmarking_admin[Searching and Bookmarking] in {AdministeringDocTitle}, and then build your searches out using the following status-related examples:
To search for hosts that have an OK status:
global_status = ok
To search for all hosts that deserve attention:
global_status = error or global_status = warning
