This is how to create a custom view that only contains Component Monitor widgets using Custom Object Resource widget and how to configure the custom resource widget to show the Component Details.

Product section

Server Application Monitor

Resolution

  1. Go to Settings > All Settings > Under Views select Manage Views
  2. As you can see in my screenshot I specified a name, then for the columns, click the plus icon and search for Custom Object Resource.
    • NOTE: You can add as much Custom Object Resource widget as you want , however we do not have an exact number how many you can add, and the limit as well. But we would recommend that you do not put all components on a single page. You can probably group the components per page so it would not contribute in slowing down the performance of your console, specially when you go to this page.
  3. Click Submit to save the view.
  4. Go to the View that you created (Alternatively you can edit the view and click preview.
  5. On each Custom Object Resource, you will see an Edit option, click it
  6. In the Edit resource page:
    • Choose for Object type: Components
    • Then click on 'SELECT OBJECT' to specify the component that you want for this resource, then submit
    • Once selected, the 'Select object resource' option will appear in the edit resource page, select Components
    • Click Submit


You can edit the other Custom Resource Object to the desired Component Monitor to appear on the page.

NOTE:

  • Best that you create multiple Custom Monitor Views / page instead of putting all in one view. This is to avoid having performance issues in the console specifically this page.
  • If you load too much Widgets in one page it contributes for loading time of the page and the widgets
