In my previous blog post, I introduced the new video series “vRealize Operations Dashboards Made Easy“.

In parts 3 – 5 of the series, which are available here:

Dashboards Made Easy – Part 3 – Creating a Simple Dashboard

Dashboards Made Easy – Part 4 – Enhancing a Simple Dashboard

Dashboards Made Easy – Part 5 – Creating an Advanced Dashboard

You will learn how to create your own custom vRealize Operations Dashboards, starting with an easy use case and progressing to more complex scenarios.

These three parts of the video series focus on:

  • Creating a simple dashboard based on a real use case
  • Placing, moving, resizing, and configuring widgets on the canvas
  • Interaction between widgets
  • Creating a more complex dashboard, starting with pen and paper
  • Object relationships and inventory trees

In the next blog post, I’ll show you how you can enhance your dashboards. You’ll learn how to include vRealize Operations Views in your custom dashboards and how to configure a few more advanced widgets that will help make your dashboards more interactive and re-usable. You can also view the full vRealize Operations Dashboards Made Easy series in the playlist available here.
