A colleague of mine asked me if it was possible to create a “resource” with in a “Group View” that would only apply that “resource” to the elements in that specific group.
For example we have a “group” called “production web servers” and when we click on that “Production Web Servers” group we get the summary page for that group. What we want to do is add a resource in this view for “CPU Utilization” and “Memory Utilization” that would be a list of those specific resources only applying to those servers in this group. (The output would look similar to the Top 10 Nodes by CPU Load or Top 10 Nodes by Memory Load, but instead of displaying the top 10 it would display all of the servers in the group)
Based on my discussion with support, apparently there is no way to do this in this version of NPM that is supported by built-in functionality. Support says that it “might be possible” with a custom HTML code of some type, but that is not supported.
I would like to know if anyone else has solved this issue or knows of a way to solve this issue.
I find it hard to believe that you can’t gather data from a specific group and output the info in a resource element and only get the info for those in that group.
