Introduction

The VO Admin Dashboard is a tool developped by LIP under the TNA3.4 EGI global task - VO Services.

The aim of the tool is to provide to VO Administrators a dashboard which aggregates VO views from different (EGI and non EGI) tools, allowing them to easily navigate between different sources of information and correlate events. It provides a quick and easy way for VO Administrators to identify problems and have direct access to tools for a better analysis of statistics, performance issues or misconfigurations.

The tool was designed to be highly configurable so that VO administrators can costumize the offered views according to their own needs, or even add additional VO specific sources on demand.


VO Admin Dashboard Arquitecture


VO Admin Dashboard user guide

This guide will provide the guidelines for VO Administrators to access, use and customize the VO Admin Dashboard.


Access ing the tool

The tool is accessible through the following web link: https://vodashboard.lip.pt/.


Using the web interface

The main Web interface is showed in the next figure where the following functionalities are highlighted:

  1. the combo box where visitors can select the appropriated VO (1);
  2. a main menu with the list of tools available through the VO Admin Dashboard (2): EGI Operations Portal, CIC Portal, GGUS, GOCDB, GSTAT, EGI Application Database and VO VOMS server.

All users from EGI community have reading access rights by default unless the VO Administrator decides to change the default profile (For details please check the VO_Services/VO_Admin_Dashboard#VO_customizations).

The default VO profile

After the general information board, a default set of views for a predifined set of selected tools is presented. The main idea would be that each VO Administrator customizes their own profile through a management panel, include their own tools and services, or their preferred views of given tools. For details please check the VO_Services/VO_Admin_Dashboard#VO_customizations section. The present profile applied by default to all VOs includes:

  1. The VO Id Card and the VO Resource Distribution views provided by the EGI Operation Portal;
  2. The VO Overview, the VO Grid Jobs Overview, the VO Online storage and the VO nerline storage provided by GSTAT
  3. The VO applications registered in the EGI Applications Database

As an example, the following figure shows the offered VO view for GSTAT.

In the right bottom corner of each tool there are two icons. The first icon (house) will open the original tool link under a different web page tab. The second icon (plus signal) will open all the VO views available in the VO Admin Dashboard from that tool. To examplify this functionality, the figure bellow shows all the available views collected from GSTAT and offered in the VO Admin Dashboard in the form of multiple tabs.

The main menu

From the main menu, showed on the top right corner of the VO Admin Dashboard web interface, a visitor can choose other VO views provided by other tools, and not displayed by the default profile, such as:

  1. The VO YAIM configurator offered by the CIC Portal
  2. The GOCDB read and write portals
  3. The GGUS portal and the VO related tickets
  4. The VO VOMS-Admin interface

VO customizations

  • VO Administrators are automatically recognized if they login via certificate. In this case, a management panel will be available in the top right menu of the Web interface to allow the VO tool customization (work in progress).

Future Enhancements


Getting Support

Support on the use of the VO Admin Dashboard can be obtained through the VO Services Support Unit in GGUS.


Objectives This plataform is being developed for VO's administrators, so they could have in one place views of the monitoring tools of EGI.

Current Features - Default views of tools: - CIC Portal - Operations Portal - GOCDB - VOMS Servers - Views by tool; - Insert Views of particular tool;


Future Features - Custom Views per VO; - Insert Views of particular tool; - Cache of generated images;


The main idea for this tool is to facilitate the monitoring of the VO, so administrators can have an idea of the status of his VO in a global scope merging the many tools as they want.
