Using the CI Model in Service Builder

The Service Builder dashboard provides the functions needed to create a service and edit existing services. When you create a service, a corresponding service level is automatically created. The Service Builder dashboard allows the user to group of one or more components.

Services are used as inputs on many other dashboards (Hosts Table, Agents) besides the Services dashboards, as well as in reports. Defining a good set of services can make other dashboards more useful and easier to understand.

For more information about how to create, edit, and remove services, see the Foglight User Guide.
