== Overview
|
|
|
|
The Uptime overview is intended to help you quickly identify and diagnose outages and
|
|
other connectivity issues within your network or environment. There is a date range
|
|
selection that is global to the Uptime UI; you can use this selection to highlight
|
|
an absolute date range, or a relative one, similar to other areas of Kibana.

image::uptime/images/filter-bar.png[Filter bar]
|
|
|
|
The filter bar is designed to let you quickly view specific groups of monitors, or even
|
|
an individual monitor, if you have defined many.
|
|
|
|
This control allows you to use automated filter options, as well as input custom filter
|
|
text to select specific monitors by field, URL, ID, and other attributes.

image::uptime/images/snapshot-view.png[Snapshot view]
|
|
|
|
This view is intended to quickly give you a sense of the overall
|
|
status of the environment you're monitoring, or a subset of those monitors.
|
|
Here, you can see the total number of detected monitors within the selected
|
|
Uptime date range. In addition to the total, the counts for the number of monitors
|
|
in an `up` or `down` state are displayed, based on the last check reported by Heartbeat
|
|
for each monitor.
|
|
|
|
Next to the counts, there is a histogram displaying the change over time throughout the
|
|
selected date range.

image::uptime/images/monitor-list.png[Monitor list]
|
|
|
|
The Monitor list displays information at the level of individual monitors.
|
|
The data shown here will flesh out your individual monitors, and provide a quick
|
|
way to navigate to a more in-depth visualization for interesting hosts or endpoints.
|
|
|
|
This table includes information like the most recent status, when the monitor was last checked, its
|
|
ID and URL, its IP address, and a dedicated sparkline showing its check status over time.

=== Error list

|
image::uptime/images/error-list.png[Error list]
|
|
|
|
The Error list displays aggregations of errors that Heartbeat has logged. Errors are
|
|
displayed by Error type, monitor ID, and message. Clicking a monitor's ID will take you
|
|
to the corresponding Monitor view, which can provide you richer information about the individual
|
|
data points that are resulting in the displayed errors.
