The Configured Volume Replication panel displays the volumes currently configured for replication, the direction of replication, the status, the start time, and the amount of data transferred.

For each volume, only the last 10 replication operations are shown in the Outbound Replication History panel.

The Active Administrative Sessions panel displays the active GUI and CLI sessions and the login time. The Client IP column shows the IP address of the system running the GUI. The Local IP column shows the IP address to which the system is connected (usually the group IP address).

The Administrative History panel displays the login history for the accounts that have logged in to the group, the account type and authentication, the pools for which they have management privilege, status, and last login time.

Displaying Member and Volume Moving Operations

You can display in-progress operations for members (removing a member from the group or moving a member to a different pool) and volumes (moving a volume to a different pool).

To show in-progress member and volume operations, in the far left panel, click:

Group Monitoring > Operations tab

The Group Monitoring - Operations window appears (Figure 7: Group Monitoring - Operations).

If desired, you can cancel the in-progress operation by clicking Cancel.
