Portlet Response Time - Preferences

The Portlet Response Time portlet reports the minimum, average, and maximum response time for a given portlet. The following sections describe the attributes that you can set to customize the report.

Note: The graphic chart displays a maximum of 25 data points, beginning with the first in time. For example, if you configure settings for a bar chart report for a duration of 3 days and group by hour, your request is for 72 data points; only the first 25 hours are displayed in the bar chart. However, when you export data for the report to Excel, the report includes all 72 data points.

Managing Access to Plumtree Analytics Portlets

Plumtree Analytics portlets are intended to make usage metrics visible to a limited set of users who perform particular business functions, such as capacity planning, QoS analysis, ROI analysis, "best bet" customization for Search, and the like. Portal administrators should create a special administrative group and manage group membership to ensure only a limited number of users can access the portlets created from the Plumtree Analytics Portlet Templates. Guest users should never be allowed to add Analytics portlets.

For information on creating portlets from portlet templates, see the Administrator Guide for Plumtree Corporate Portal.
