Viewing your gateway system resource status

When your File Gateway starts, it checks its virtual CPU cores, root volume size, and RAM. It then determines whether the available system resources are sufficient for your gateway to function properly. You can view the results of the system resource check by using the gateway local console.

To view the status of a system resource check

1. Log in to the local console on your Amazon EC2 File Gateway. For instructions, see Logging in to your Amazon EC2 gateway local console.

2. From the AWS Appliance Activation - Configuration main menu, enter the corresponding numeral to select View System Resource Check.

   The gateway local console displays [OK], [WARNING], or [FAIL] to indicate the status of the resource as follows:

   Message	Description
   [OK]	The resource has passed the system resource check.
   [WARNING]	The resource does not meet the recommended requirements, but your gateway can continue to function. The gateway local console displays a message that describes the results of the resource check.
   [FAIL]	The resource does not meet the minimum requirements. Your gateway might not function properly. The gateway local console displays a message that describes the results of the resource check.

   The local console also displays the number of errors and warnings next to the resource check menu option.
