This topic describes how to create a bookmark for the dashboard that you are currently viewing and preserve the context input and time range of the bookmarked dashboard.

Select one of the Keep for options to indicate whether you want to keep the bookmark indefinitely or for a specified number of days. If you choose the latter, type the number of days in the box provided.
3
Select Send an email with a link to this bookmark if you want to email someone a link to the new bookmark.

The Active Hosts Summary dashboard displays information about each active host in a separate view. A host becomes active when its memory usage is greater than 0%.

This dashboard is useful when you have a small number of hosts and want to see a visual summary of them.

If you have a large number of hosts, you can use the Hosts dashboard, or use the Active Hosts Summary dashboard as a portlet in a custom dashboard and configure custom dashboards for each set of hosts. For information about creating custom dashboards using a selected dashboard, see Creating a Custom Dashboard Based on the Current Dashboard on page 82.

In the Number of Hosts to Display box, type the number and click Apply.

If you have a large number of active hosts in your environment, you can filter your list of services by specifying a domain of interest. For example, you may want to focus on only the Windows services in your environment.

Click the Filter Hosts By Service check box.
