Monitoring system usage and connections
The System section of the Overall Health window contains charts that show the CPU and memory
usage on the appliance, and connection activity for client VPN and clientless VPN users.
Monitoring these system aspects lets you take action if CPU or memory usage gets too high, or if you
see an unusual number of user connections.
Note:
If the security gateway is not running, the active connection count is zero.

Monitoring disk usage
The Disk Usage section of the Overall Health window lets you see how much disk space is used.
Monitoring disk usage can help you know when to delete archived log files or clean up unused
configurations.
You can also see whether a disk has failed and take action to avoid loss of data. On Symantec Gateway
Security 5660 appliances and 5640 appliances that have more than one hard disk installed, RAID is
implemented automatically to keep the appliance running in the event of a disk failure. The underlying
mirroring process is totally transparent.
You should also pay attention to log messages that warn you if it is necessary to replace a failed device.
These messages indicate the status of the RAID subsystem, and reflect the severity level of any
problem. Log messages may advise you to take an action, like replacing a drive.
Total
Check to display all connections through the security gateway.
VPN
Check to view connections through the security gateway from Symantec Client VPN
users.
Clientless VPN
