Dashboards

Previously, the dashboard was based on aggregated data held in database summary tables. Since CA DataMinder 14.0, the iConsole dashboard has been based on data held in the CA DataMinder data warehouse. The data warehouse is a set of database tables containing CA DataMinder event data that has been transformed into a format suitable for generating reports and iConsole dashboards.

Many underlying data warehouse queries run significantly faster than equivalent database queries associated with earlier versions of the Incident Dashboard. Consequently, dashboard performance is significantly faster if you upgrade to the current Incident Dashboard. This improvement is particularly noticeable if your data warehouse includes a very large set of event data.

However, there are some issues associated with upgrades of the dashboard. See the following sections for details.
