Create Blueprint Analytics Dashboard

You can create your own dashboards to display custom information from IBA probes and stages.

Some probes and dashboards are automatically created to give you immediate value. The probes auto-adjust based on the state of the blueprint (examples: undeployed or unassigned device, addition or removal of virtual infra managers). You can also create your own dashboards to display custom information from IBA probes and stages.

You can create a dashboard by manually adding widgets or by cloning an existing dashboard and customizing it.
