Administering analytics configurations

You can create and run configuration scans on demand or on a scheduled basis to generate analytics based on your event data.

Configure Analytics window
The Configure Analytics window contains a list of existing event configurations, or reports. Use this window to view, create, modify, delete, run, or stop event configurations.
Setting the Impact data provider and other portlet preferences
If there are multiple connections with the Impact data provider, you must specify which Impact data provider to use.
Viewing current analytics configurations
An Administrator can see the list of current analytics configurations and some basic information about the analytics (related events and seasonal events) related to those configurations.
Creating a new or modifying an existing analytics configuration
In order to generate analytics output, whether seasonal events, related event groups, or event groups based on patterns, you must create a new analytics configuration or modify an existing analytics configuration. You choose the analytics type (related events, seasonal events, or both) you want to run during the create new analytics configuration operation.
Scope-based groups
Events in a scope-based group are grouped together because they share a common attribute, such as a resource.
Manually running an unscheduled analytics configuration
An Administrator can manually run an unscheduled analytics configuration at any stage. You choose the analytics type (related events or seasonal events) you want to run during the run unscheduled analytics operation.
Stopping an analytics configuration
You can stop an analytics configuration that is running.
Deleting an analytics configuration
Analytics configurations can be deleted individually, regardless of their status.
Changing the expiry time for related events groups
You can modify the expiry time for Active related events groups. When the expiry time is reached, the expired groups and related events display in the View Related Events portlet, within the Expired tab.
Changing the choice of fields for the Event Identity
You can change which fields, from your event history database, are available for selection as the Event Identity.
Changing the discovered groups
You can modify the discovered groups for related events groups.
Restricting the available seasonal rules
You can restrict the columns that are available on the Seasonal Rule page.
