With WebSphere® Virtual Enterprise, you can manage complex system operations with real time, meaningful visualization tools. Gradually controlled implementation of autonomic capabilities helps you to reduce the cost of managing your resources.
You can organize your charts into chart groups to easily access charts from any reports view.
You can move charts to a new window to continue viewing the chart while performing other tasks in the administrative console. You can also move the chart back to the original chart group.
Runtime operations reports use Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) to display the data. Microsoft Internet Explorer does not have an SVG viewer installed by default. You can install a SVG plug-in or configure runtime operations to display JPEG images. See Creating and managing reports for more information.
The dashboard displays a high level summary of your overall environment. You can use the dashboard preferences to configure the information that displays in the dashboard, such as the default reports or the data from a specified chart group.
The charts that are included in the applications, deployment targets, and service policies summary views do not automatically refresh. To update the data, you can click the refresh icon on the chart. These charts display the average response time at a certain point in time. The default number of data sets that are displayed is 5. You can, however, configure custom properties to specify that a unique number of data sets be displayed instead. See Runtime operations custom properties for more information.
If you are not running any work load requests through the on demand router (ODR) to your applications, no data is displayed in the chart. Also, if you are charting service policy related metrics, no goal lines for the data set are displayed in the key. After the ODR sends the work load requests, the chart is automatically updated and the statistics are displayed. However, the key table is not automatically updated. Refresh the panel to view the goal lines that are added to the data set.
To access the runtime summaries, click Runtime Operations in the administrative console.
