Content Distribution Monitor

This tool assists in the management of content transfers on Distribution Points in your environment.

Where the tool is located

In the Assets and Compliance section of ConfigMgr, click on Content Distribution Monitor under the Recast Software Node.

The top left section shows individual Distribution Points in your environment, as well as their distribution status. Successful, Error, and In Progress distributions will be shown.

The top right shows information for the Distribution Point that you have selected on the left side. You can also refresh the information to show any changes, and you can also Redistribute Failed Content Transfers for the Distribution Point you have selected.

The bottom section is interactive and will populate with content determined by which part of the bar chart you have selected above.

Results can be exported to CSV (via the button at the bottom right of the page).
