# Operations

## Operations

The **Operations** section in Nexus is where you monitor and manage the operational state of your deployed devices and modules in real-time.\\

The Operations workspace is divided into two main areas:

* **Monitoring** - Real-time insight into device status, module logs, and job history.
* **Alarms** - Alerts and notifications for abnormal conditions, connectivity issues, or module errors.

### Key Features

The **Operations** page equips you with powerful capabilities to manage, monitor, and respond to events across your Nexus environment:

* **Unified Device View** – Browse all connected devices, their deployed modules, and current operational status in one place
* **Real-Time Monitoring** – See live updates of device health, job executions, and module activity
* **Detailed Module Insights** – Access module logs, configuration twins, and data connector details for in-depth analysis
* **Job Execution Tracking** – Review the full execution history of File Jobs, FTP Jobs, and File Share Jobs, including logs, file counts, and transfer sizes
* **Direct Module Commands** – Invoke module functionality instantly using the Commands tab (for Nexus SDK-enabled modules)
* **Centralized Alarm Management** – Monitor, filter, and acknowledge alarms across the entire environment
* **Root Cause Analysis Tools** – Leverage logs, alarms, and historical job data to identify and address operational issues quickly
* **Proactive Incident Response** – Detect abnormal patterns early and take action before they escalate into service disruptions

### Monitoring

The **Monitoring** area allows you to drill down into each connected device and view detailed status information.\
From here, you can:

* See the list of devices in your environment and their performance, CPU, Memory and Disk usage
* Inspect all modules deployed to a specific device, and assess module performance CPU and Memory usage
* Access module-specific tools, such as:
  * **Module Logs** – Detailed runtime logs for debugging and status tracking
  * **Twin View** – Compare Desired vs. Reported module configurations
  * **Commands** – Send real-time commands to modules (if Nexus SDK-enabled)
  * **Local Storage** - Browse local storage of the Edge device
  * **Data Connectors** – Browse remote filebased data connectors
  * **Jobs History** – View execution history for scheduled jobs.

This is the main hub for **real-time operational control and troubleshooting**.

### Alarms

The **Alarms** area centralizes all notifications for operational events that require your attention.\
Alarms are generated when Nexus detects conditions such as:

* Device or module connectivity loss
* Job failures or timeouts
* Data transfer issues
* Configuration mismatches

From the Alarms page, you can:

* View active and historical alarms
* Acknowledge or clear alarms once addressed
* Filter alarms by severity, device, or time period
* Use alarm details to diagnose root causes quickly

This ensures that operational teams can react promptly and effectively to any disruptions in the system.

### Typical Use Cases

The Operations section is essential for:

* **Day-to-Day Device Monitoring** – Keeping an eye on field-deployed devices and ensuring they are operating as expected
* **Troubleshooting Issues** – Quickly identifying and resolving operational problems
* **Job and Data Flow Validation** – Confirming that scheduled jobs are running successfully and data is moving as intended
* **Incident Response** – Using alarms to detect and respond to critical situations
