System Admin

The System Admin area is the administrative control center for CVT. It is available only to users with the Admin role and is reached from the main sidebar under System Admin.

System Admin is organized into four top-level sections:

Sidebar item

Purpose

Setup & Validate

End-to-end setup wizard (default landing page)

Agent Management

Agent status, summary reports, and recipe management

Collector Management

Validation/service controls, resource monitoring, collector logs

Users Management

Create, edit, and delete CVT users (standalone mode only)

Users Management is hidden when CVT runs embedded in UFM (non-standalone mode).

Section details

Setup & Validate

A vertical stepper wizard guides administrators through cluster setup:

  1. Load Topology — Upload or select topology and DC layout files

  3. Credentials — Manage node credentials

  4. Pre-Check — Run connectivity and readiness checks

  5. Deploy Agents — Deploy or remove agents on selected devices

  6. Validate — Review summary and start/stop validation

Steps can be navigated freely. A Skip to Validation shortcut is available from any non-final step. Topology metadata (file name, path, last updated) is shown above the stepper. More details are available in Setup & Validate page.
