1 Dashboard

Overview

The Monitoring → Dashboard section, similar to the dashboard on your car, displays a summary of all the important information.

Favourites

There are some widgets for favourites where you can create quick shortcuts to the most needed graphs, custom graphs, screens, slide shows and maps.

Just click on the Menu button in the widget, select to add, for example, some screen and then select from the configured screens. The selected screens will be displayed as shortcuts in the favourites widget.

Status widgets

A number of status widgets - Status of Zabbix, System status, Host status, Last 20 issues, Web monitoring, Discovery status each display a summary of the respective data.

As you may have noticed from the screenshot, the widgets can be arranged in up to three columns. Additionally, all widgets can be freely moved around. Just grab a widget by its title bar, drag and drop wherever you would like it.

Dashboard filter

Clicking on in the Personal dashboard title bar allows you to access the dashboard filter.

By enabling the filter you can limit what hosts and triggers displayed in the dashboard and define how the problem count is displayed.

Enter host groups to display. This field is auto-complete so starting to type the name of a group will offer a dropdown of matching groups.
Host data from these host groups will be displayed in the Dashboard.
If no host groups are entered, all host groups will be displayed.
