How to view Virtual Meters defined in Hierarchy Manager under views in Dashboards?
Published date:
22 December 2020
Issue
Virtual Meters are set up using Hierarchy Manager but only the different levels within a Hierarchy Manager template are available in the Dashboard default views
Product Line
Power Monitoring Expert
Environment
Power Monitoring Expert Software Configuration
Cause
While analyzing the different levels in a Hierarchy, the granularity of being able to see the constituent virtual meters might be necessary.
Resolution *Warning: Take backups of any files prior to modifying them. Ensure the backups are in a location that will not be overwritten (i.e. the Desktop).*
The default views that are defined in the hierarchy template do not provide direct access to the virtual meters. To remedy this,
Export the hierarchy template. See FA276924 for hierarchy export/import instructions.
Find the "Views" section near the bottom of the XML file.
Add this element inside the <Views> element:
<View displayName="Virtual Meters" rootNodeTypeUri="uri:application-modules/power/model/type#virtualMeter"/>
Import the hierarchy template.
There should now be a new drop down in the Dashboard view selector called "Virtual Meters" that will give you access to virtual meters.
