You can display system status information for each computer you’re observing.
This information gives you the following service statistics:

Free memory
For a description of the status icons, see Client status icons.
There are two levels of detail for system statistics. To show the second level of detail, place the pointer over the high-level status icon so it changes to an “i,” then click the “i” to get more information.
In Remote Desktop
