How to configure

When configuring a table-type portlet, the configuration is separated into two parts - Filters and Alerts settings. Filters consists of configuration for refining the selected classifications and setting the threshold to display in the portlet. While Alerts consists of scheduling of sending email alerts and specifying the desired formatting of the messages.

Filters

To configure the Filters, follow these instructions:

1. In the upper-right corner of the portlet, click the gear icon.

   The configuration dialog should appear.

2. Provide the Label or the text displayed in the title bar of the portlet. The initial value is Inactive User Applications: Duration >= 1 Hours.

3. Select among the available Vendor License, Package, and Feature.

4. Provide the Threshold or the value to limit the rendered data. The value should be in hours.

5. (Optional) Expand the Extended Filters section to narrow down the report by choosing which hostnames to show. You can use wildcard patterns (like *server*) to match hostnames. If you want to include more than one pattern, separate them with commas.
