Where can an administrator see both the management plane and data plane CPU utilization in the WebUI?

Question

Options

• ASystem Utilization log
• BSystem log
• CResources widget
• DCPU Utilization widget

• A
  3% (1)
• C
  94% (30)
• D
  3% (1)

Explanation

The Resources widget in the WebUI dashboard displays both management plane and data plane CPU utilization on a single pane, making it the go-to location for a quick health check of both planes simultaneously.

Why the distractors are wrong:

• A (System Utilization log) - This is not a standard WebUI component; logs record events over time but don't surface dual-plane CPU metrics in a widget format.
• B (System log) - The System log captures event/error messages (fan failures, config commits, etc.), not real-time CPU metrics.
• D (CPU Utilization widget) - This widget exists but typically shows only one plane's data, not both management and data plane together.

Memory tip: Think of the Resources widget as a "resource dashboard" - just like a car's dashboard shows multiple gauges at once, the Resources widget consolidates all key utilization metrics (CPU for both planes, memory, sessions) in one view. If a question asks about seeing both planes together, "Resources" is your answer.
