Create a custom dashboard in NetApp Console local deployment, add cards, and save a monitoring view for daily operations.
If you only need organization-level monitoring that is ready to use, start with predefined Home page dashboards. Create a custom dashboard when you need a role-specific view, resource-level targeting, or a tailored card layout.
-
Only the user who creates the dashboard can view it. You cannot share dashboards with other users, even when you add them to the Console Home page.
-
You can only view resources that you have permission to view. If you do not see a resource in the list of available resources, you do not have permission to view it.
-
Before you begin, identify the metric types and resources you want the dashboard to track. Learn about custom dashboard cards and metrics in NetApp Console local deployment
