View entity health status and find entities without alert conditions

With you can easily tell whether an entity (the target for the notification) has one or more conditions associated with it:

If yes, its health status indicator on the selected index (APM, browser, etc.) will be color-coded to the current state. To view a summary of current alert incidents, mouse over its health status indicator.
If no, its health status indicator on the selected index will appear grey.

Important

To learn more about how conditions and policies work together, see alerting concepts and terms.

Exceptions

The health status indicator doesn't apply for:

Dashboards
Entities that have their alertable attribute set to false in the entity definition

Color-coded health status

Entities in New Relic are automatically color-coded with their health status. For example, to view the health of your apps, go to one.newrelic.com, then click APM. The Applications index lists all product entities and their current health status.

Color	Health status
Green	The entity is operational. We are collecting data that you can view in the appropriate UI. No alert incidents are currently reported for it.
Yellow	The entity is degraded. A warning threshold has been breached.
Red	A critical threshold has been breached: Notifications have been sent based on the selected incident rollup preference. The incident appears in the Incidents index.
Gray	The entity's status is unknown. We're not receiving alerts data for the entity. This could mean alerts are not set up for the entity, the reporting system is down, or the entity's alert conditions are not consistently reporting a signal for the entity.

Health status transitions

The following table describes the different health status transitions an entity can endure:

From...	To...	Transition explanation
Gray	Green	The entity is evaluated for at least one condition, and the results show there are no incidents present.
Green / Red	Gray	Possible explanations: The last condition associated to the entity has been deleted and therefore there's no status to report. The last condition associated to the entity has been disabled and therefore there's no status to report. The entity has stopped reporting data. The entity is only being targeted by conditions that evaluate entities as part of an aggregation, not individually. The entity's conditions are currently not generating a consistent signal. There's a New Relic platform issue. Check the New Relic status page for updates.
Green	Yellow / Red	There's at least one open incident at the time the entity is undergoing the evaluation.
Yellow / Red	Green	The last open incident associated to the entity has been closed.

Example: App without conditions

Here's an example of an app listed on the index that is not associated with any conditions. Its color-coded health status is light grey, which indicates that there are currently no conditions targeting the entity or the entity's conditions are not currently generating a consistent signal.

Go to one.newrelic.com, then click Explorer: This example shows an app that currently isn't associated with any alerts conditions.

Follow standard procedures to add it to an existing condition or to create a new condition for it.

Example: App with conditions

Here's an example of an app listed on the index that is associated with one or more conditions. Its color-coded health status is green, because we are collecting data for it, and currently there are no Warning (yellow) or Critical (red) incidents.

Go to one.newrelic.com, then click Explorer: This example shows an app that has one or more conditions. Its color-coded health status (green) shows the app hasn't breached any threshold.

Tip

To view the index listing currently open incidents across all products, not just this entity, select View all incidents.
