Superusers can specify the tasks an admin group can perform from the Tasks Dashboard tab by creating a dashboard template and assigning it to the admin group. When you create a dashboard template, you define the tasks users in an admin group can perform and specify whether the users can configure their own dashboards when they log in to Grid Manager. When you assign a dashboard template to an admin group, all users in this group can see and perform the tasks you define in the template, provided that the users also have the correct permissions to the objects related to the tasks. For information about administrative permissions, see Administrative Permissions for Dashboard Tasks. If the assigned template is unlocked, users can configure tasks on their dashboard. If you lock the dashboard template, users cannot configure task packs on their own dashboards.
Superusers can also restrict limited-access users to access only the Tasks Dashboard tab when they log in to Grid Manager. These users cannot manage other core network services through Grid Manager. They can only see the Tasks Dashboard tab and access only the tasks defined in the dashboard template, if applicable. This feature is useful when you want to define different levels of admin users and restrict them to specific tasks based on their organizational functions. For information about how to set this restriction, see Creating Limited-Access Admin Groups.
To configure and apply dashboard templates, complete the following:
...
- From the Dashboards -> Tasks tab, click the Configure icon at the top right corner of the panel.
In the Dashboard template section, select the template you want to modify from the Template drop-down list. Note that Grid Manager displays [L] before the name of a locked template.
- In the task pack, click the Configure icon at the top right corner.
- Select tasks from the Active Tasks table and use the left arrow to move them to the Available Tasks table to hide the tasks, and vice versa. Grid Manager displays the tasks you place in the Active Tasks table. Repeat the steps for all task packs.
- Click Save.
- In the Save Dashboard Template dialog box, modify other information, as described in Configuring Dashboard Templates.
- Click Save & Close.
