Chapter 3      Using Dashboards 
  Understanding the Predefined Widgets
Feeds update every 24 hours (although you can manually update the feed), and the widget displays the 
last time the feed was updated based on the local time of the appliance. Keep in mind that the appliance 
must have access to the web site (for the two preconfigured feeds) or to any custom feed you configure.
When you configure the widget, you can also choose how many stories from the feed you want to show 
in the widget, as well as whether you want to show descriptions of the stories along with the headlines; 
keep in mind that not all RSS feeds use descriptions.
On the RSS Feed widget, you can:
  •
click one of the stories in the feed to view the story
  •
click the 
more
 link to go to the feed’s web site
  •
click the update icon (
) to manually update the feed
Understanding the System Load Widget
License: 
Any
The System Load widget shows the CPU usage (for each CPU), memory (RAM) usage, and system load 
(also called the load average, measured by the number of processes waiting to execute) on the appliance, 
both currently and over the dashboard time range. It appears by default on the Status tabs of the Detailed 
Dashboard and the Summary Dashboard.
You can configure the widget to show or hide the load average by modifying the widget preferences. The 
preferences also control how often the widget updates. For more information, see
