Node

Browser limitations require configuring a specific port in order for these graphs to display properly. The Node and Graphs options are disabled until a port is specified in records.config (in /opt/WCG/config, by default).

  1. Update this variable to enable the Node and Graphs pages:

    proxy.config.admin.overseer_port INT ##

    where ## is a valid port number.

  2. Restart Content Gateway.

If the node is part of a cluster, two sets of statistics are shown:

  • Information about the single node and
  • Information showing an average value for all nodes in the cluster. Click the name of a statistic to display the information in graphical format.
