System status
The System Status dashboard displays the health of the FORGE Content Manager services and front-end.
Health information details each service (Application Service, Backoffice, Dependency, Distribution Api, Notification Dispatcher, and Front End). If services run in many nodes (redundant infrastructure for high-availability), the System Status dashboard provides details about each node.
