To open the Nodes View, select Views -> Nodes from the opCharts menu bar. By default, this displays a list of all nodes in your environment, but you can also select Panel View to abstract each nodes performance information into easy-to-understand panels. These panels include such information as the node name, node status, vendor, and key performance information regarding each node.

*Note* The Nodes view is the default view for opCharts unless a default Dashboard has been assigned to the user account.

Panel view

In this view each node is represented by a panel versus a line in a table.  Each panel provides important information for the represented node.  Some of this information is conveyed via dials.  There are two options to chose from in regard to how data is displayed in the 'node panel dials'.  Please refer to the administration guide in order to switch between the two panel dial options.
