wide metrics, monitor system health, and update the BlueScale firmware.

Important
Do not use the Enter key on your keyboard when making on-screen selections in 
the BlueScale web interface. Various web browsers handle the Enter key differently, 
causing inconsistent behavior in the BlueScale web interface. 
Always use your mouse to make selections and click the buttons in BlueScale 
screens instead of using your keyboard.
