Step 11. Configure the Dashboard and Reports

Step 11. Configure the Dashboard and Reports

If the Dashboard and Reports component is installed, perform the following task on all the cluster nodes.
  1. In the
    B2B Data Exchange
    Operation Console, from the Navigator, open
    Administration
    System Properties
    .
  2. In the
    dx.dashboard.url
    system property, enter the load balancer URL in the following format:
    http://<load_balancer>:<load_balancer_port>/
    dx
    -dashboard
    For example:
    http://host1:80/
    dx
    -dashboard
  3. Configure the operational data store (ODS) workflow file with the standard PowerCenter high availability configuration. The workflow file resides in the following location:
    <
    DX
    InstallationDir>\powercenter\ETL\DX_ETL_SQLSERVER.XML
    For more information about configuring ODS, see
    B2B Data Exchange
    Installation and Configuration
    guide.
  4. To restart the Tomcat server, restart the
    DataExchange
    services. Perform the following steps:
    1. In the Start menu, click
      Informatica >
      B2B Data Exchange
      .
    2. Select
      Stop Services
      .
    3. After all the services stop, select
      Start Services
      .
      All the
      B2B Data Exchange
      services start.
  5. If you customized the Dashboard, deploy the customization on all of the machines in the cluster.
  6. To make changes to a Dashboard user setting and apply the changes to all Dashboard users, perform the following steps:
    1. Set the shared folder directory in the
      dx.dashboard.users.layout.path
      system property. For example
      \\NetworkDir\SavedDashboards
      .
    2. In the shared folder for the saved dashboard application, such as
      \\NetworkDir\SavedDashboards
      , find the
      default_dashboard.json
      and
      dxdashboard<userID>.json
      files.
      The
      default_dashboard.json
      file has the default settings for the Dashboard. Each user has a unique
      dxdashboard<userID>.json
      file, named with the user ID for that user, that contains the Dashboard settings for that user.
    3. Take a backup of the
      default_dashboard.json
      file.
    4. Change settings for a particular user. Take a backup of the
      dxdashboard<userID>.json
      file for the user whose settings you changed and want to replicate.
    5. To overwrite the default dashboard settings, rename the
      dxdashboard<userID>.json
      file for the user whose settings you changed to
      default_dashboard.json
      .
    6. Delete the
      dxdashboard<userID>.json
      files.
