In Unifier, the following types of dashboards are available.
My Dashboard (end user-defined dashboard): By default, all shells have a dashboard that the end user can configure if they have configure permissions. The dashboard is the user’s personal dashboard, with their personally configured view of shell data. My Dashboard can be configured by end users in User Mode using the Edit Dashboard window, but is often configured for each user by the Administrator. Users can select this type of dashboard to view from the View Dashboard drop-down list on each shell. This dashboard is recommended if the user wants a personalized dashboard to view data that they specifically need to see regarding the shell.
Shell dashboards: These dashboards allow users to view information specific to the shell for which the dashboard was created. This differs from My Dashboard in that it is a shell view of the shell for all users to use. My Dashboard is a personalized view for a specific user, therefore displaying only the information that the user wants to see. The shell instance dashboard is a general view of specific shell data, and is not specific to any one user view of data. Administrators can create multiple shell instance dashboards per shell instance. Users can select this type of dashboard to view from the View Dashboard drop-down list on each shell. These dashboards are maintained at the shell level and are available to any user to view (but not edit) provided the user has permissions.
Custom Dashboard. This is a dashboard someone created externally using a dashboard creation software that generates SWF (Small Web Format) files. An Administrator can upload a SWF file into the Custom Dashboard for use within Unifier. Users cannot modify these dashboards. You can use this dashboard as your default dashboard.
