Migrate (Move And Share) Connections

Spotlight templates and connection profiles control the appearance and behavior in Spotlight of monitored Spotlight connections.

New Spotlight connections base their settings on templates.

Spotlight uses connection profiles to store property data for individual Spotlight applications and connections.

To migrate connections

Migrate your Spotlight connection files to a network where other Spotlight users can share them. By migrating profiles to a shared location, you can share connection information between multiple users. User-specific information (including user names and passwords) is still stored on a per-user basis. Users are identified by the Windows accounts under which they log in.

  1. Click File | Disconnect All to disconnect ALL open Spotlight connections.
  2. Select Tools | Migrate Connections.
  3. Click Next | Migrate connections | Next.
  4. Browse to select the location to migrate connections to.

Note:

  • Do not migrate connections to locations that may be offline frequently or for extended periods.
  • You cannot migrate connections that are currently in use or inaccessible.
  • You cannot move connections to another location if you have no Spotlight connections to move.
  • Templates shipped with Spotlight are stored by default in Console\Templates.
  • User defined connection profiles are stored by default in C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Quest Software\Shared\Profiles
  • User defined templates are stored by default in C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Quest Software\Shared\Templates
  • The locations for updated user templates and profiles for EXISTING Spotlight installations remain as they were before.

To use shared (migrated) connections

First ensure the other user has migrated Spotlight connection files for you to use.

  1. Select File | Disconnect All to disconnect ALL open Spotlight connections.
  2. Select Tools | Migrate Connections.
  3. Click Next | Use shared connections | Next
  4. Browse to select the shared location.

Connection Templates

The template file for a Spotlight application contains the information that controls the standard appearance and behavior of Spotlight connections for that connection type. Spotlight is shipped with a set of templates that are suitable for most connections.

Once a Spotlight connection has been configured and calibrated, you can save its configuration as a template for use with Spotlight connections to similar systems. Changes that are made to a template propagate to all connections that use that template, unless individual changes have already been made to those connections.

The information contained in the template includes:

  • The configuration of controls in the home page and drilldowns, including the metrics displayed and the data sources from which they are derived.
  • Calibration values for those controls.
  • The threshold values for alarms on those controls.

To save the configuration for the current Spotlight connection as a template

  1. Select the Spotlight connection in the Spotlight Browser in Live connections
  2. Select File | Save as Template.
  3. Select Save calibration to save calibration data in the template.

Notes:

  • You can change the template assigned to an existing Spotlight connection. Connection Properties - General Page
  • Templates shipped with Spotlight are stored by default in Console\Templates.
  • User defined templates are stored by default in C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Quest Software\Shared\Templates
  • Template files are given extension .stx
  • Locations for template files may differ from the default in your case. Migrate (Move And Share) Connections
