Administration¶
The admin area has its own sidebar: seven groups, named after what you manage there. Every tab is always visible in the tree; each group can be collapsed and then stays collapsed (remembered per browser). There is no "Advanced" switch any more — rarely used things sit at the bottom of their group.
| Group | Contains |
|---|---|
| Overview | Instance health at a glance — core services, processing pipeline, storage & database, backup & DR, licence, updates, collection, server system (load/CPU/RAM) |
| Users & Tenants | Users & tenants, Roles, Tenants |
| Login & Security | 2FA & Sessions (incl. session limits), SSO, Admin access |
| Agents & Collectors | Agent connection (server address, gateway, fleet), Active checker (the Active Collector — the server probes itself) |
| Notifications | E-mail & messages (SMTP, language and timezone of all alert messages) |
| System | Updates, Backup & DR, Licence, Resources (storage / RAM / performance), AI, Preview features, Portal layout |
| Logs & Support | Audit log, Support bundle, Feedback, Trash |
Old bookmarks and documentation links to the former areas (Users & Access, Instance & Maintenance, Collection & Analysis, History & Support) redirect to the new place automatically. Push needs no admin setup (every user enables it per device under Settings → Push).
Every group with several tabs addresses them via the URL parameter ?tab=; the sidebar is the tab bar. Keyboard: g then 1–7 jumps to a group, [ / ] cycles the tabs.
Overview = instance health¶
The landing page at /admin is no longer a tile menu — it's a live dashboard. Each tile shows the current state and links straight to the page where you take action:
- Core services — API, database, Redis, worker (running / down)
- Processing pipeline — delay, pending messages, dead letters
- Storage & database — disk free (GB + %), total disk, DB size
- Backup & DR — active schedules, last successful run, age
- License — edition, status, remaining validity
- Updates — current version, available update (critical flagged in red)
- Collection — collectors/agents online, number of hosts/services
- Server system — load (1/5/15 min), CPU cores, RAM used, disk free — read directly from the host, no agent required
Every tile has a traffic-light indicator (green/yellow/red/inactive). Clicking a tile takes you to the responsible maintenance page. The overview refreshes automatically every 15 seconds; a manual "Refresh" button is also available.
The former standalone "System health" page with pipeline traffic light and email alerting has merged into this overview plus the performance view under Resources.
Searching the admin area¶
The former admin search has merged into the Jump quick search (Cmd/Ctrl+K or the button at the top of the sidebar). Inside the admin area it starts filtered to "Administration" and jumps straight to the right tab — "password" finds 2FA, "mail" finds SMTP. Remove the filter and it searches the whole instance. You can also switch areas from the keyboard (g followed by the area's digit).
