Hi All,
Recently a customer asked for a number of portlets that they could use to display information about their SLA's in drag and drop dashboards. Since I could see these being useful to others I thought I'd share them.
In the attached cartridge you'll find (shown in the same order in the below screenshot)
An availability arrow for your service.
A Sparkline showing availability (based on the current timeframe)
A histogram for SLA alerts on your service
A histogram for alarms in a service (regardless of whether they affect the SLA)
An availability arrow with the service name included
A small summary widget combining the arrow, name, and alarm (non SLA) histogram.
In order to use these, simply create a drag and drop dashboard, drag a service onto the canvas and choose "views". You'll find them under "service widgets".I'd love to hear any feedback or suggestions for new portlets, so please leave a comment if you try these out or tweet me @Leefarrar
As this is a community provided cartridge Quest can't provide support, but if you do have any issues leave a comment and I'll try and help out as soon as possible. The cartridge is tested on Foglight version 5.5.8.
If you would like to know how to create your own portlets I've written a brief blog post on the topic on my site at http://leefarrar.com/2011/11/foglight-custom-drag-and-drop-portlets/
