Step by Step scenario

  1. Launch Dashboard
  2. Login successfully
  3. Home page is blank or empty with nothing
Action Plan

Perform the below actions -

  1. Check if the Technical Quality Index metrics has been computed using the below steps -
    1. Using the Quick Access page, identify the objects names and technologies used in the last snapshot's portfolio tree. For instance, in the below screenshot, we can see:
      2 used technologies: ASP and Oracle server
      1 Corporate : Sample_corpprate
      1 system: Sample_System
      1 application: Sample_Application
      2 modules: Module1 and Module2
      There are 7 objects used for the snapshot definition
    2. Run the query on the Central Database

      SET SEARCH_PATH = <CNETRAL_DATABASE> ;
      SELECT C.OBJECT_TYPE_DESCRIPTION,
             R.OBJECT_NAME,
             T.OBJECT_ID,
             R.OBJECT_TYPE_ID,
             T.METRIC_VALUE_INDEX,
             T.METRIC_NUM_VALUE,
      FROM DSS_OBJECT_TYPES C, DSS_METRIC_RESULTS T, DSS_OBJECTS R
      WHERE T.OBJECT_ID=R.OBJECT_ID
        AND C.OBJECT_TYPE_ID=R.OBJECT_TYPE_ID
        AND T.METRIC_ID=60017
        AND T.SNAPSHOT_ID=x

      Results -
      In this case the TQI has been computed for all the 7 linked objects and technologies -

      Instead of the above values if you have the below results then it means that the TQI is not computed -

      • Metric_NUM_VALUE are all equal to zero
      • 0 row: not any value computed
      • One or more Metric_NUM_VALUE not computed for one Metric_VALUE_INDEX for one or for all identified object
    3. If the TQI has not been computed you need to delete the existing snapshot and re-do the snapshot

    4. If the TQI has been computed in the CB yet the CED does is blank then this is a bug in the product , please contact CAST Technical Support. with the following Relevant input
