Building the Dashboard
So far we have a query and we have a table to present some of the data that will be
returned by the query. Now we need to configure a dashboard and place the table in it.
To configure a dashboard and add the table:
1
Select the Views tab in the Module Contents pane and then click the Add button
().
The New View dialog appears.
2
Ensure that Blank view is selected and click the browse button ( ). Expand the
Containers group and choose Fixed Layout from the drop-down list. Click OK.
The views editor in the Definitions pane displays. The required fields are marked
by an exclamation point icon ( ). For this view component, the required fields are
Name, and the Preferred Width and Preferred Height fields, as well as the
Dashboard check box in Purpose(s).
3
Type All Hosts in the Name field.
4
Leave Public unchecked.
5
Ensure that Deprecated is unchecked.
6
Set Preferred Width and Preferred Height. Since you can edit these values later
when you have seen the table displayed, you can choose any values you want. For
now, set Preferred Width to 300 and Preferred Height to 300. These settings, as
their name implies, do not ensure that the table will fit in the component. In a
fixed layout container the actual table size can be set in the Layout tab.
7
Leave Refresh Interval blank.
