You can view the overall health status of a global namespace to monitor the health of the services in the global namespace. You can also view the different configuration details and the performance metrics for its services.

You can view the overall health status of a global namespace, the performance metrics for its services, and the different details about the global namespace on the global namespace details page.

The top of the page displays the health status of the global namespace. A global namespace can have of the following health statuses:
