Dashboards and partitions

If you are administering dashboards in a multi-partition environment, read this section to understand how multiple partitions affect dashboards.

In a multi-partition environment, a user can view or administer only those dashboards associated with the partition to which the user belongs.

When a dashboard administrator creates a dashboard, the following partition-related rules apply.

  • Any dashboard that is created is available only to members of the same partition as the user who created it.
  • Only those pre-defined portlets that are enabled in the partition to which the administrator belongs are available for inclusion in the dashboard.
  • Only groups and users assigned to the same partition as the administrator are available for assignment to the dashboard.
