Displaying OpenEdge viewlets on a collection view

Among other activities, collections allow you to define and organize OpenEdge resource details and to prominently display these details in Fathom. Specifically, you can define OpenEdge resource viewlets to display resource information in a graphical form on a collections page. The second column entitled "Data addressing this topic" in Table 2–3 identifies some of the graphs that the OpenEdge viewlets support.

You can define viewlets for any OpenEdge resource that is a member of a collection.

To access and select OpenEdge resource viewlets for display on a collections page:

  1. Click My Fathom on the main menu bar. The My Collections Default Home page appears in the detail frame:
  2. If you are updating the My Collections Default Home page, go to Step 4. Otherwise, from the list frame, expand the collections category (My Collections or Shared Collections) that contains the collection page you want to update.
  3. Click the collection. The collections page appears in the detail frame.
  4. From the detail menu bar on the collections page, click View Customize View View Content. (The checkmark in the drop-down menu list identifies the currently active view.)
  5. The Edit My Collections page for the collection appears:
  6. For each OpenEdge server resource type defined for the collection, the Resource viewlets to show section displays the associated viewlet options.

    Note: The Resource viewlets to show section also supports these AppServer viewlets that are not available on the AppServer Performance View page: AS Total Servers CPU, AS Broker Queued Requests (percent), and AS Broker Rejected Requests (percent). The NameServer-related viewlet provides access to the NameServer instance's OpenEdge main page; there are no graphs associated with NameServer resources.

  7. Click in the box associated with a viewlet option to select it.
  8. Click Save. The main view of the collections page redisplays with the selected viewlets. Use the scroll bars to view all items defined, as needed:
