Change the Metric Icons on the Mobile Dashboard

You can change the metric icons that show the status of services and SLAs on the Mobile Dashboard. For example, you can change the icons if you prefer a vertical graph representation or an icon that is accompanied by text.

Follow these steps:

1. Stop the CA SOI User Interface service on the UI Server.
2. Delete the SOI_HOME\SamUI\webapps\mobile directory.
3. Rename the SOI_HOME\SamUI\webapps\mobile.war file to mobile.zip.
4. Unzip the mobile.zip file to any empty temporary directory.

   The compressed files are extracted.

5. Replace the icons in the \images\gauge directory with a new version.

   The new icons must have the same names as the old ones and must be PNG files. The following sets of files exist:

   • X-out-of-5.png files show the Quality, Risk, Availability, and Health values.
   • X-out-of-3.png files show the SLA status.

   You cannot add different icons for each metric (for example, separate icons for Health and Quality).

6. Add the modified contents of the temporary directory back to mobile.zip.

   Important! Verify that you compress the contents of the temporary directory only and not the directory itself; otherwise, the Mobile Dashboard will not work.

7. Rename the file to mobile.war.
8. Replace the old SOI_HOME\SamUI\webapps\mobile.war file with the new one.
9. Start the CA SAM User Interface service.

   The new icons appear on the Mobile Dashboard.
