# Check the health status of a collector

In this milestone, you check the health status of your registered collectors. Fleet Management provides a health status indicator so you can see at a glance if your collectors are healthy.

To check the health status of a collector from the **Inventory** tab, complete the following steps:

1. Use the **Status** dropdown to filter the fleet by status.
2. Hover over a collector status indicator to learn more.

The **Status** column shows the collector’s current state. Green means the collector is healthy, yellow means the collector is potentially unhealthy or unresponsive, red means the collector is unhealthy, and gray means the collector isn’t reporting data.

In the next milestone, you learn how to interpret dashboards that show a collector’s internal metrics.
