Host Health and other StartCenter dashboards
Is there a way to update the dashboard that StartCenter points to? I've made a change to the HostHealth dashboard to remove the UNIX hosts. We have none so there is no need to display it. Once I save the dashboard it save it to my dynaTrace server but the link still opens the default dashboard. Can I update the link or overwrite the default dashboard?
Hi Percy
Right now its not possible. The Host Dashboards that gets opened is actually dynamically created. So - what you are saying is that you would like to link your "top most" dashboards into the Start Center to make them easier accessible?

Yeah. What I would really like is to have the dashboards readily available. I don't like the need to open the dashboard from the menu. It would be nice to have a Dashboards in the cockpit view or a seperate tab that list out all dashboards with the ability to create folders. Right now we have lots of dashboards in and it is easy to loose the one you need at a particular moment.
I forwarded this to our Product Team. There is a dedicated Team now within dynaTrace that focuses on User Interface Design and Usability.
In the meantim I have one more suggestion:
If it is always the same type of dashboards you want to open you could define these dashboards on your User Group. When you go to Server Settings -> Users -> Groups and edit a Group you will find the option to grant access rights to dashboards to this user group. You also have the option to Auto Open these dashboards when the user logs on to the dynaTrace Server. Maybe a workaround that will work for you

Hi Percy,
thank you for your feedback concerning the topic "Management of Dashboards" and own created Dashboards. We have this topic in our
roadmap but it is not sure in which release we will implement it. The idea of saving it into the startcenter would cause a problem in the
migration.
