Overview #
XPulse shows three informational metric cards alongside its alerts. These are read-only diagnostics: they describe your environment so you (and our team) have context when something needs attention. They never require action on their own.
The Metric Cards #
Server Identity #
Displays the underlying server hardware and network identity for your records: the hostname and platform your site runs on. Useful when discussing your setup with our team or matching support requests to the right node.
System Load #
A real-time snapshot of your server’s current processing and memory consumption. A brief high load isn’t a problem: sustained high load alongside other alerts is what matters. If you see this card elevated for a long time, mention it to support; we’ll check for resource pressure.
Site Footprint #
A breakdown of the disk footprint occupied by your WordPress installation: core, plugins, uploads, and database. This card answers “where is my disk going?” at a glance. If it’s growing unusually fast, it’s often paired with the Database Bloat or Stalled Backup Bloat alerts.
How to Read Them #
| Card | Green zone | Watch zone |
|---|---|---|
| Server Identity | (informational) | Shows hostname/platform for reference |
| System Load | Low-to-moderate, fluctuating | Sustained high load for hours |
| Site Footprint | Stable or growing slowly | Rapid growth, or near your storage limit |
What You Should Do #
Nothing: these cards are informational. They become useful when paired with an alert, or when you’re discussing your site with our team. If you have questions about any reading, include the values when you contact support.
