The Error Tracking and Performance widget lists each enabled synthetic monitors for your site. The bars will appear red, green, or yellow bar depending on the the availability for each monitor over the chosen look-back period. Hovering over the bar allows you to get a quick look at performance and some additional information as to what error may be occurring.
