Often administrators may wish to track the values of certain key metrics in a single dashboard, so that they can proactively determine when the IT infrastructure may need attention. The metrics to be tracked may differ from one administrator to another. The eG Quick Insight offers an easy way for administrators to quickly track key metrics at each of the infrastructure tiers. With the help of this module, users can define infrastructure tiers, add critical components for monitoring within each tier, and associate key metrics requiring closer observation with every component. Besides providing a holistic view of the environment at a single glance, this option enables users to focus on the more sensitive and critical components in the environment, and keep a close watch over their performance.

To open this page, click on the icon available in the Monitor tab. Select the Quick Insight option from the Dashboard tile.

If custom views pre-exist, then this page displays the state and values of the measures associated with that custom view which is set as the default view. If only one custom view exists, then the eG Enterprise system will automatically set it as the default view, and the measures that it has been configured to display will appear in this page. Clicking on a measure here will lead you to the layer model, tests, and measurements pertaining to that server.

On the other hand, if no views have been configured yet, then a message to that effect will be displayed in this page. To create a new view, you will have to click on the New View hyperlink in the message.

This page can also be accessed by clicking on the icon against a view name in the Quick Insight View page. Also, clicking on the button in the Quick Insight menu will automatically lead you to this page.
