Custom chart stops working after view limitation is applied

mcordero Jun 19, 2015 9:14 AM

Hello all,

I am currently dealing with an issue where a custom chart resource stops working when I apply a view limitation to the overall view. I am using the custom chart to display average CPU load for 3 nodes that are part of a dynamic group. The chart is able to display the information when the view has no limitations associated with it, but as soon as the limitation is applied it stops showing the data. The nodes I am using as a data resource for the custom chart are part of the group I use for the view limitation so in theory this should work just fine. Has anyone else experience this issue? Any information provided will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Does your account have any limitations?

  Hello d09h,
  
  No the account I am using to create and view the dashboard does not have any limitations associated with it.

    I've had some web pages that displayed all resources fine for my account (no limitations) but not for my end users (account limitations). My workaround was to reinvent affected resources as SWQL.

      I might have to look into using that method since I can't seem to get it to work with the view limitation applied.

        mcordero, one other approach might work. I believe groups were introduced after many of us were using custom properties for what later became implemented as group functionality. Perhaps your limitation could be a custom property itself (directly) and not via a group. Probably worth a try before using the SWQL hammer.

        d09h,
        
        Thanks for the tip about utilizing a custom property for the limitation, it resolved the issue.

        Glad to hear that worked mcordero.
