Organization¶
The VOSS Insights platform design allows it to be used in multiple workflows. There isn’t any linear flow that has to be followed. However, there are some elements that need to be configured in a specific order. Those will be pointed out in each section. This document is categorized as follows:
Log Search and Extraction: Location where log data is stored along with the ability to rapidly search all of the data. Additionally, all Search/Extraction Definitions are found in this section. Note: The term “log” is utilized as a generic description of the data elements saved in the index data store.
Analytic Dashboard and Report View: Location where each dashboard is located, modified and viewed along with Folder Organization, Ad-Hoc Printing, Widget Filtering and Global Filtering.
Administration: Add / Modify Users, Add / Modify Customers, Define Data Sources, Edit Mappings, Edit Field Groupings, Import/Export of Dashboard Templates and Scheduled Reporting.
Licensing¶
The VOSS Insights product and features are activated via a license file that is loaded on to every arbitrator and dashboard server. This license file contains an expiry date and the following information is how to activate and add a new license file once the expiry date has been reached.
When logging in to the GUI the admin user will be presented with an activation window where there is a product key. This will need to be copied for each individual server. This information will need to be provided to the VOSS representative who will produce a product key which will activate the server.
The admin user will be required to navigate to the arbitrator and the dashboard server and enter the product key in the box, and agree to the terms and click submit.
