      Frequently Asked Questions

Associating a Site

Site is a user-defined geographical location where an appliance is installed. One site can have multiple appliances, but one appliance can be associated with only one site.

Note:

It is important to provide the correct site address and other details so that the on-site support personnel can reach the site easily.

Refer to Registering an appliance.

After you have provided the appliance hardware details, you can link a site with the appliance.

To associate a site with the appliance:

  1. On the Register Appliances > Add Appliance page, click Select Site for the appliance record to open the Select Site dialog.

  2. In the first section, you can either select from the populated site list, or add a new site. The following site selection options are available:

    • Default site: is the site suggested based on the site details provided at the time of purchasing the appliance. If you select the default site, provide a new Site Name to register it in the System Health Insights. Then you can edit the site details if required, after the appliance is successfully registered.

    • Registered site: is the list of sites already registered in the System Health Insights by your team.

    • Unregistered site: is the list of all the sites associated with your account name but not created or registered in the System Health Insights. Select from one of the unregistered sites if you find a matching site record that already exists. Then provide a new Site Name to register the selected site.

    Once the site is registered in the System Health Insights, it can be searched in the Site Management using the new site name, and the details can be edited as required. If the site does not exist in the site selection list, you can add a new site. Refer to Adding a new site section.

  3. The second section lists the UID of the appliance and the exact location where that appliance is installed.

    If the site is un-manned, it is mandatory to provide the Detailed Location of the appliance on the site.

    For a clustered system, UIDs of all the nodes within the cluster are listed.
