Domain Controllers Dashboard

This dashboard provides a topological view of your environment, along with key operational metrics and health status of each of your monitored domain controllers. The presented metrics help to quickly identify, any domain controllers that might require further investigation. By default, only a subset of the columns is displayed. However, you can find the entire set of available columns, by double-clicking the columns command. Selecting the columns that you most care about, turns this dashboard into a single and easy place to view the health of your AD DS environment.

Domain Controllers

Domain controllers can be grouped by their respective domain or site, which is helpful for understanding the environment topology. Lastly, if you double-click the blade header, the dashboard maximizes to utilize the available screen real-estate. This larger view is helpful when multiple columns are displayed.

This feature provides graphical trends of different performance counters, which are continuously collected from each of the monitored domain controllers. Performance of a domain controller can easily be compared across all other monitored domain controllers in your forest.
