Setting the data source for Rack View

Once you associate hosts with locations using the rackconfig.sh command, configure your data source to access the Rack View page on the cluster management console.

About this task

The Resources > Hosts > Rack View page graphically displays hosts associated with a location on a rack or a chassis on a rack.

Procedure

To access the Rack View page, complete the following configuration:

  1. Set the data source in the datasource.xml file and ensure that your database is available.
    • For Windows: %EGO_CONFDIR%\..\..\perf\conf\datasource.xml
    • For Linux: $EGO_CONFDIR/../../perf/conf/datasource.xml
  2. Restart the WEBGUI service:

    egosh start service WEBGUI

What to do next

Go to Resources > Hosts > Rack View to view the location of hosts and to correlate host metrics. If you chose not to associate hosts with a location, the host displays as Location unspecified.
