Managing Workstations
Client Manager sets up a connection to all the workstations running on the network to
allow the administrator to monitor the functions of each workstation.
The monitoring is in real time so that if an unhealthy workstation is fixed, you can refresh
the screen to view the new correct PC health. You can also set the monitor to report only
unhealthy workstations.
PC Health Meter
The PC Health meter is a traffic signal that provides a visual indicator of workstation health.
A red light means that a critical system event has occurred. You are required to fix the
problem immediately.
A yellow light or noncritical system event requires that you monitor the situation. It may be
a problem that could get worse and become a critical event.
A green light means everything is working fine with the system.
PC Health Description

threshold levels. Some of the components that are monitored include the following:
