General Monitoring/Dashboards
HI all,
I've created some really nice dashboards but I would really like a simple State dashboard. I want a widget that simply shows me Up/Down for services or basic vm connectivity. If my se...
I built a Zoom dashboard that shows the status of each item as a gauge. It's highly manual, but it's very quick and easy to see what's up/down:
Essentially, you'd manually add a gauge widget for each object you want to monitor and do an expression on the datapoint to convert 1/true/up/on to 100% and 0/false/down/off to 0%. You'd set the gauge to change color based on thresholds. Essentially, you would set it to red for ==0 and it would be green otherwise.
I could see an enterprising person exporting the json for the dashboard and generating the necessary components using a script, but I haven't gotten around to needing that yet.
Not sure what you have against the NOC widget, because it's the hammer for this nail. If it's a case of not being able to get it to do what you want, what difficulties are you hitting?
