   When you open Database Center for the first time, the dashboard displays all available databases, resources, health issues, and database issues for your selected scope.

2. In the Google Cloud console menu bar, select a project.

3. Select the following information, which affects the information that's displayed on the Overview and All Resources in the Database Center dashboard:

Customize your database fleet health issues

To measure your fleet health, Database Center categorizes the health issues that your fleet might encounter and displays a percentage that represents how many of your resources are passing a given health issue test. A score of 100% indicates that all applicable resources are passing those health issue tests. A score of 0% means that all resources are failing issue tests.

For more information about the health issues for supported Google Cloud database products, see Supported health issues.

To remove health issues from the Database Center dashboard, follow these steps:

1. In the Google Cloud console, go to the Database Center page.

2. Click Overview.

3. Click Customize. By default, all health issues are selected.

4. Uncheck the health issues that you want to exclude from your Database Center dashboard.

5. Click Apply. The health issues that you unchecked are no longer displayed in your Database Center dashboard. Health issue customizations are applied to the Overview and All Resources pages.

When you customize health issues, those customizations are only visible to you and aren't applied to your entire organization. After you customize health issues, Database Center displays only data that's related to the health issues that you selected.

Your database fleet health is summarized in inventory health cards, show in Figure 1. These cards display database fleet health issues by category (availability configuration, data protection, security, industry compliance, performance and capacity, cost, and other).
