8.5.1 View and Filter PMF Dashboard

The PMF Dashboard provides detailed, drill-down information about the processes that have run, along with the events (activities) that occurred during task execution. You can use the available filters to quickly search for and locate a PMF process, whether it completed successfully or failed.

Note:

The PMF Dashboard supports wildcard search where you can search for objects without having to provide the complete activity name, process name, or instance ID. In addition, the search feature is case-agnostic; you can type the search strings in upper or lower case.

To view and filter the PMF Dashboard:

1. From the Data Foundation Cloud Service home page, select Process Orchestration.
   The Process Modeler page is displayed.
2. Click the PMF Dashboard icon on the header. The PMF Dashboard page appears and displays the PMF processes that have run.
3. You can filter the PMF dashboard to quickly search for a PMF process you are interested in. Note that the search is case-sensitive. The following filter options are available:
   • Process Status: Select one or multiple statuses to filter the PMF dashboard. For example: to see all processes that have failed, click Process Status under the search bar and select Failed to view a list of all the processes that have failed.
   • Process Name: Enter the process name.
   • Process ID: Enter the process ID.
   • Process Instance ID: Enter the process Instance ID.
   • More Filters: Select from one of the multiple options available.
   • Execution Date: Select a time period or a date range based on the time zone in which the user is logged in.
   The dashboard is refreshed and the PMF process(es) matching your filter criteria are displayed.
4. You can drill-down each PMF process to view the activities (tasks) that have been defined for that process. Use the additional filters to filter activities based on Activity, Event Parameters, Event Message, and Event Error Code. To apply a filter, click inside the search bar, select the filter, and press Enter.
5. Each PMF process has the following information:
   • Process Instance ID: The unique system-generated value that identifies the process instance.
   • Data Source ID: The Data Source ID of the process.
   • Run Params: The input parameters provided to execute this process.
   • As Of Date: The As of date.
   • Run Skey: The unique number created for each instance.
   • Start Time: Start time of the process execution.
   • End Time: End time of the process execution.
   • Duration: Duration of the process execution.
   • Status: Indicates if the process has completed, failed, was canceled, or is still running.
   • Monitor: Click this icon to view the progress of this process on the PMF canvas.
6. Click the PMF process link to drill down and display the activities associated with this process. The associated activities (for example: SCD, Connectors, Run DQ Rule, and so on) are displayed. For each activity, the following information is available:
   • Component: The component type.
   • Start Time: Start time of the activity execution.
   • End Time: End time of the activity execution.
   • Duration: Duration of the activity execution.
   • Status: Indicates if the activity has completed, failed, was canceled, or is still running.
7. Click the activity name link to drill down further and view details of the events within this activity. For example: if the activity is an Insert Connector, the following event information is displayed:
   • Timestamp: The latest record is displayed on top.

   • Event: The event that is being recorded.
