Dashboards

Dashboards offer real-time information about the status of objects within OneSite Patch. Some Dashboards are useful for a quick glance to confirm everything is running smoothly, or you can drill down deeper into specific widgets to see where you might need to take action. For instance, you can:

  • View the overall compliance of all devices

  • Select a Device from a table widget of patches to see further details about the Device

  • Perform a Flex Control action from a Flex Control widget

There are several pre-built Dashboards for you to explore. If you're interested in creating your own dashboard, please see our Advanced: Dashboard Managementarrow-up-right page.

Home

The Home dashboard displays the more relevant information for keeping you updated on the overall status of your patching environments. All text in these widgets are links that allow you to drill deeper into the related content.

Insights

  • Overview - The Overview dashboard gives a general count of each object. You can select either the green or red button to open a table that displays each associated object where you can apply actions if necessary.

  • Blind spots - The Blind Spots widget details areas that may have been missed during daily activities.

  • Patching overrides - Patching Overrides details exceptions, blocked patches by the user, blocked patches by Adaptiva, and rollbacks.

    • Useful for reviewing patches you may want to actually deploy.

  • Patching Metadata - Summarizes the status of the latest endpoint scans and client product inventory updates. Metadata includes details about the products, patches, and updates approved for installation.

    • Tells the administrator when the AdaptivaServer and AdaptivaClient last synchronized with the Metadata Server and when the last sync resulted in an update to the clients.

Patch Metrics

The Patch Metric section details:

  • Status - The status of the Patch may change dynamically as new statues are updated and will be reflected in the chart in real-time, and the graph over time. Some statues present in the graph may not actively appear in the real-time chart data. You can also click on each bar of the bar graph to open a fly-out and view those associated patches.

  • Overall Compliance - Graphs the overall compliance of devices in the environment with the patch requirements.

  • Risk Score - For more information regarding Risk Score, please see our Risk Assessment Settingsarrow-up-right page.

Actions

  • Quick Actions - Quick Actions allow you to create higher level tasks on the fly without having to find it deeper in the UI.

  • Emergency Kit - Use the Emergency Kit to quickly apply Patch actions or navigate to Flex Controls for more granular controls.

Patches and Products dashboard

Both of these dashboards can be found from the Software dropdown from the side navigation.

Patches

The Patches dashboard details metrics, trends, top 10 most critical patches, and status of Patches. This is a useful view to monitor Patches and determine which Patches may need additional attention.

  • Patching Metrics - Shows basic patch related information specific to your environment based on scanning requirements.

  • Patch Trends

    • Patching Status - Shows the status of all patches, the number of machines tracked in the environment, and the number of patches in each status by percentage.

    • Risk Contribution - Shows the number of patches in the environment and the risk rates by percentage.

  • Top 10 Most Critical Patches - This table view organizes the patches by their Risk Contributionarrow-up-right.

  • Active Product Deployments - Quick glance view if there are any deployments running and its progress.

  • Patch Status - Shows the total number of Patches required in your environment and the installation/applicability of the aggregate total.

Products

The Products dashboard details metrics, compliance rates, risk contribution, and status of Products. This is a useful view to monitor Products and determine which Products may need additional attention.

  • Product Metrics - Tracks supported products, detected products, and patching requirements, and provides a visual indication of product patching over time.

  • Product Compliance Rates and Products by Risk Contribution - Graph of the compliance of products and their risk contributions.

  • Product Status - A table that lists each product that OneSite Patch looks for during a scan, the installation/applicability status of each, and the status, compliance, and Risk Score for each.

Product Compliance - This metric is calculated based on how many devices a product is installed and how many devices still need an update. The following equation is used to calcualte the product compliance percentage:

Devices

The Devices dashboard can be found from the Asset Management dropdown from the side navigation.

  • Device Metrics - Tracks Device patching status over time.

  • Product Compliance Rates - Graph of the compliance of products and their risk contributions.

  • Devices by Risk Contribution - Displays which devices contribute to the most risk.

  • Device Status - Overview of each Devices status with all elements.

Device Compliance - This metric is calculated based on how many products a device has installed and how many are updated with latest patches (product compliat). The following equation is used to calcualte the product compliance percentage:

circle-info

Device Compliance is rounded to the nearest percent.

Products that are Compliant by Exclusion due to a rollback or exception are not included in the total compliant products.

Deployments

The Deployments dashboard can be accessed by clicking Deployments in the side navigation.

  • Deployment Metrics - Tracks rollouts, patches in progress, and provides a visual indication of patches installed over time.

  • Patch Deployment Status and Schedule Patch Deployments - Graphs deployment status and upcoming deployments.

  • Patch Deployments - Lists either In-Progress and Completed individual patches that have been deployed. If you click on the number of Cycles, you can see the deployment cycle information for that patch. You can then click on these cycles which will open up the flex controls for this patching strategy cycle.

Flex controls cycle operations

The Flex Control Cycle Operations has its own set of interactable dashboards. For more information regarding these, see our Flex Controlsarrow-up-right page.

Additional dashboards

There is a table of additional dashboards you can access by clicking Dashboards > Dashboards under the Platform Features side navigation dropdown.

You can view each dashboard, but selecting their name in the table.
