Dashboard Requirement For per Site

I need help to create a dashboard with multiple store chains in US.

The client wants a dashboard that display a summary of his nodes by Store chain with store name and drill down. Need a consolidated view.....

I have grouped the servers and routers on the various Store Chains so I need something that look similar like this:

Store Chain Routers Up Down

Store A 10 9 1

Store B 20 15 5

Store C 30 25 5

Please advise

Many Thanks

abhivish11 - I apologize for the wait. d09h suggestions are good options, and something I would suggest looking into, however I do have another option. It would actually involve the new Enterprise Operations Console 2.0. You had originally posted in that forum and had mentioned you have a single site, but I think the functionality of EOC might provide you with the type of dashboard you are looking for.

This article gives a good breakdown of EOC WHAT IS THE ENTERPRISE OPERATIONS CONSOLE (EOC) & HOW DOES IT WORK? 2.0!!

Here is a screenshot that I mocked up with your scenario in mind. I used "site" as a custom property but imagine leveraging "store" as you previously mentioned.

EOC 2.0 provides Environment Summary Tiles which quickly aggregate status, entity counts, and excessive alerts. The console provides a ton more features but a user or your client would be able to drill down to investigate further, run searches for entities, perform analysis with PerfStack, etc...

abhivish11 I know we are in a EOC forum but just wanted to validate here that you are trying to accomplish this in the Enterprise Operations Console? Are you working with EOC 1.6.3 or are you running the RC of EOC 2.0?

abhivish11

Oh I have not realize the it is for EOC, I am not running EOC. It is standard Orion Server and GUI.

Great - glad I clarified. I moved this thread to the Network Performance Monitor forum but let me see if I can give you something to get you started. What I might do however may depend on how many stores, and how many devices are at each store. Can you provide a bit more context and the use case the customer needs this for?

I believe you will want to make use of groups here.

Make a group called Store A. Inside it, make a group called Store A Routers. Inside the Routers group, make a group called Store A Up and another group called Store A Down. Make group membership for each dynamic leveraging custom properties. Repeat for Store B, Store C, etc. There is some up-front investment in time for group creation, but going forward you can affect membership status by modifying the custom property used for evaluating group membership.

This comes close to what you requested, except is a pie chart:

Thank you very much, I think this is really helpful. I was able to develop some GEO based dashboard, which gives really good idea to customer on each site. I will propose this to my team to have a look on it (EOC), Really appreciate your help...

abhivish11

Thanks d09h, This is really helpful too and I was able to develop something for my customer, I would keep enhancing the same though....

abhivish11

Actually I made my GEO based map+Dashboard based on this suggestion, this really worked for me.....

Great! It would be awesome to see some of the example dashboards you created if possible. Might be useful to others in the future.
