How to create dashboard profile
In EventLog Analyzer, host group-specific dashboard ‘profiles’ can be created (click + Profile button), where each dashboard profile displays only that information corresponding to the host group assigned to the profile. The default dashboard profile is ‘All Groups’ and this profile is not editable (add. modify, delete is not possible), unlike other dashboard profiles.
Create dashboard profile in EventLog Analyzer using the following menu:
- Home tab > Dashboard > + Profile > +Add
The procedure to create dashboard profile is given below:
-
Enter a unique view name for the new dashboard view profile
-
Select the host group(s) to add to this profile. Use the left to right arrow to add the host group(s) (move the host group(s) from the Available Group(s) list to Dashboard View Group(s) list) and right to left arrow to remove the host group(s) (move the host group(s) from the Dashboard View Group(s) list to Available Group(s) list)
-
Select the 'Set this view as default dashboard view' check box to set this newly created profile as default profile for the dashboard
-
Use Update button to save the new dashboard profile
