Salt Masters in SSE	Displays the number of Salt masters registered in Tanzu Salt over time Useful for monitoring whether Salt masters went down unexpectedly or if there are more Salt masters than expected over time	Time range (from the past hour up to 24 hours)
Minion Presence	Displays the number of minions connected to Salt masters through Tanzu Salt over time Useful for monitoring if minions went down unexpectedly or if there are more minions than expected over time	All Salt masters or specific Salt masters Time range (from the past hour up to 24 hours)

Adding reports

To add a report to the Dashboard:

1. In the Dashboard workspace, click Add Report to open a menu.
2. Select the name of the report you want to add to the Dashboard.

The report you selected now appears in the Dashboard. If you already have several reports in your Dashboard, the new report you just added appears at the top of the Dashboard on either the left or right column. It appears in whichever column had the fewest reports at the time you added it.

All the reports in the Dashboard workspace can be filtered by the duration of time shown in the report, from the past hour up to 24 hours. All reports are set to 12 hours by default. To change the duration, click the duration filter in the lower left of the report to select a different time range.

You can also download reports by clicking the Download icon and selecting Download JSON or Download CSV.
