You can use the Update Notifications feature, if you want to be notified when a new version of Couchbase server is available.

The administrator can enable an auto-failover when a node fails after a certain threshold timeout. To do this, check the Enable auto-failover option under the Auto-Failover tab and specify the timeout period, as shown here:

You can configure e-mail alerts for various alerts, that are listed in the Alerts section. You need to specify the e-mail server details in this section.

Auto-Compaction provides options to configure settings related to compaction, which we will explore in more detail in Chapter 9, Data Replication and Compaction. For the time being, you can skip this.

If you forgot to load the sample buckets while configuring, after installation, it can be done using Sample Buckets.

Account Management provides options to create a read-only user for the cluster. This can be used when you require an administrator with read-only rights.

That's it from the web UI perspective.
