zCompute Home Page
The zCompute UI home page is the main entry point for platform administration. It brings the main management areas together in one place for MSP administrators.
Within the home page, Region Management is the main workspace for day-to-day administration. It contains the region-level areas used to monitor the platform and work with core infrastructure resources.
The Region Management section organizes these functions into tiles. Each tile groups related options so admins can move directly to the correct management area.
Monitoring
The Monitoring tile groups pages used to review system state, activity, and service health.
Overview
The Overview dashboard shows high-level monitoring data for the cluster.
Review it to check current status, alerts, events, resource consumption, and health summaries.
Events
An event is a record of a system activity or state change.
Review it to inspect event history, apply filters, and export event data.
Diagnostics
Diagnostics are system validator checks that run on the platform.
Review past runs or start an immediate run to inspect validator results.
Data Collection
Data collection creates a downloadable set of logs or a cluster dump.
Use it to collect support data, download the result, or remove old collections.
System Alerts
A system alert is an automated notification or action triggered by a threshold or event in the cluster infrastructure.
Review it to see alert summaries and the current state of each alert.
Alarms
An alarm is a configurable monitor that changes state when a rule threshold is met.
Use it to view alarms and to create, modify, delete, or manually set alarm state.
SNS Topics
An SNS topic is a notification target with one or more email subscribers.
Use it to create topics, update topic details, and manage subscribers.
System
The System screen shows the real-time health and status of platform services.
Review it to inspect service tiles, filter service views, and check service events.
Configuration
The Configuration tile groups core region configuration tasks and hardware-related administration.
Nodes
A node is a physical server that provides compute, storage, and networking resources in the region.
Use this page to view nodes and run supported lifecycle actions such as add, join, maintain, activate, remove, and inspect.
Upgrades
An upgrade item tracks software upgrade work for the region.
Review it to inspect upgrade records and current upgrade state.
External Endpoints
An external endpoint is a configured connection to an external target, such as object storage.
Use it to view endpoint records and create or modify endpoint settings.
Settings
Settings control global system behavior, security, branding, networking, and external integrations.
Update them to manage platform-wide configuration values from a central area.
Cluster Certificates
A cluster certificate is used for server-side authentication by the cluster, allowing secure, HTTPS-encrypted operation with the region’s UI and APIs.
Use this page to upload a certificate and private key.
PCI Devices
A PCI device is hardware that can be exposed to virtual machines through PCI passthrough.
Use this page to review device state and enable or disable devices for passthrough use.
Region Networking
The Region Networking tile groups network resources that are managed at the region level.
Switch Domains
A switch domain defines a Layer 2 network domain in Region Networking.
Use it to review switch domains, inspect node links, and work with cluster networks and VLANs in that domain.
Cluster Networks
A cluster network defines Layer 2 and Layer 3 connectivity within a switch domain.
Use it to view or update network details and work with routes, applications, VIPs, and IP addresses.
Networking Applications
Networking applications define logical networking functions within a cluster network.
Use them to review application details or create and delete application entries.
VIPs
A VIP is a virtual IP resource attached to a cluster network.
Use this page to review VIP details and update supported VIP settings.
GPU Network Switches
A GPU network switch is a switch record used for the GPU networking layer.
Use this page to add, modify, or delete switch records and review their connection settings.
GPU Network Ports
A GPU network port is a port record in the GPU networking layer.
Use this page to review port identity, addressing, and linked resources.
Edge Networks
An edge network brings edge-network configuration, subnet values, IP pools, and router details together.
Use this page to view, create, modify, configure, or delete edge network records.
Account Networking
The Account Networking tile groups network resources that are assigned to accounts.
VLANs Management
A VLAN is a Layer 2 identifier used to segment network traffic.
Use this page to review VLAN records and manage VLAN allocation and ownership.
Direct Subnets
A Direct Subnet connects a VPC directly to the hosting-datacenter’s physical network over a designated VLAN ID. Direct Subnets allow “stretching” (directly connecting) VPCs into the datacenter.
Use this page to create subnets, run subnet operations, and test subnet connectivity.
GPU Networks Management
Modern AI workloads demand a dedicated, high-performance network fabric that connects GPUs within and across compute nodes, separate from general-purpose infrastructure networks.
The NVIDIA Spectrum-X Compute East-West (E-W) network provides a purpose-built Ethernet fabric optimized for GPU-to-GPU communication at cloud scale.
From version 25.06, zCompute GPU Network (GPU-Net) exposes this fabric as a first-class, self-service resource. Tenants can provision and manage GPU networks through zCompute’s standard interfaces. Tenants can have multiple GPU networks, and can allocate these networks across multiple projects that provide project isolation and tenant isolation.
Use this page to add, assign, release, delete, or force delete GPU network entries.
Storage Management
The Storage Management tile groups region storage resources and storage configuration tasks.
Service Controller
The service controller dashboard shows storage summaries and VSC events for the cloud.
Review it to inspect storage counts, set event filters, and open related events.
Storage Classes
A storage class defines the underlying hardware and performance expectations used to store data.
Use this page to review storage classes, inspect linked resources, and attach a VPSA when needed.
Volume Types
A volume type defines the performance profile and storage behavior of block storage volumes.
Use this page to view, create, modify, delete, enable, disable, or set the default volume type.
Backup / Restore Tasks
A backup or restore task is a task record associated with backup protection group activity.
Use this page to monitor currently running backup and restore work and open related resource records.
Service Engines
The Service Engines tile groups engine categories used by region services.
Networking
A networking service engine is a deployed engine used for regional networking services.
Use this page to review engine entries and manage supported engine state actions.
Load Balancer
A load balancer service engine is a deployed engine used for load balancing services in the region.
Use this page to review engine entries and manage supported engine state actions.
Identity & Access
The Identity & Access tile groups account, policy, and role management tasks.
Accounts
An account is an administrative container for projects, users, and related resources.
