βš™οΈ System Services

The System Services page provides a centralized, real-time monitoring view of all core daemons powering the EdgeStream Hub appliance.

System Services

🚦 Service States & Status Indicators

The health of each service is evaluated continuously via heartbeats and classified into one of four states:

  • Healthy (Green) β€” The service is running, responsive, and operating within expected operational thresholds.

  • Degraded (Yellow) β€” The service is active but encountering warnings, partial port binding issues, or performance constraints.

  • Down (Red) β€” The daemon has stopped unexpectedly, failed to bind to necessary sockets, or crashed.

  • Disabled (Gray) β€” The service has been intentionally toggled off by an administrator and is not actively processing traffic.

πŸŽ›οΈ Monitored Services

Each service card displays operational runtime information, including the system daemon name, process ID (PID), service uptime, real-time CPU and memory usage, and listening port bindings:

  • Vector (vector.service) β€” Core telemetry ingestion, transformation, and routing pipeline engine.

  • Syslog (syslog-ng.service) β€” High-throughput syslog daemon listening on standard and configured network ports (e.g., :514, :601, :10001).

  • Netflow (flow-collector.service) β€” Dedicated network telemetry collector for NetFlow and IPFIX traffic (e.g., :2055, :2056, :4739).

  • Scheduler (edgestream-scheduler.service) β€” Background worker responsible for automated configuration backups, log retention routines, and periodic maintenance tasks.

πŸ“‹ Status Summary Panel

Located at the bottom of the page, the Status Summary panel groups services by their current operational state:

  • Provides a quick count of total services across all four status states (Healthy, Degraded, Down, and Disabled).

  • Displays interactive badges for quick visual assessment and rapid isolation of offline or degraded processes.
