Executive Dashboard
Executive Dashboard is a new feature in File System Factory™ 1.2. It includes a separate
interface to allow specified users to view statistics and generate reports based on the
storage managed by File System Factory™.
Configuring the Executive Dashboard
The configuration page for the Executive Dashboard is found in management interface
under the Configure FSF Engine option. Selecting Executive Dashboard on the left menu
will bring up the configuration page. By default, all of the options are turned off.
The first item in the configuration allows Executive Dashboard to be enabled. If this is
not selected, the external interface for Executive Dashboard will not be available. Next,
select or type in the name of the object which will have rights to use the external interface
for the Executive Dashboard. See the next section (Executive Dashboard Security
Principle Object) for more details. Three menu items can be enabled for Executive
Dashboard. These are “Event Statistics,” “Volume Statistics” and “Reports.” Enableing
“Storage Statistics on the configuration screen allows the dashboard user to see “Volume
Statistics.” The “Reports” page can have either or both of two types of reports. These
are “Policy Statistics” and “Disk Usage.” Select the appropriate check boxes to enable
the desired features.
Note: The default for all the Executive Dashboard elements is
Disabled.
