At the current time there are two methods available for deploying CAST Dashboards (Health/Engineering) - each option has its advantages and disadvantages. The steps required for each option are detailed below.

Use dashboards embedded in the AIP Console package

Advantages

Seamless login with Console credentials
Roles assigned in Console are active in embedded dashboards to restrict access to Application data
Dedicated icons in the AIP Console to directly access the required dashboard
Fully embedded in AIP Console processes

Documentation: Embedded CAST Dashboard deployment process

Disadvantages

Dashboard customization not currently possible
Dashboards cannot be manually updated to a new dashboard version independently: since the dashboards are embedded in AIP Console, updating to a new dashboard version requires updating AIP Console and all AIP Nodes to a new release which contains the required version of the dashboard

Use standalone dashboards

Advantages

Can be fully customized as required

If you have decided to use standalone dashboards, please follow the instructions provided in Standalone CAST Dashboard deployment processand ensure you configure the standalone dashboards to display data from the relevant schemas installed by AIP Console:

Info

Summary: this page describes how to import existing Applications (i.e Applications that are being managed using the CAST Management Studio) into AIP Console. All the existing data for the Applications (configuration, versions, analysis results, snapshots) will be preserved.

Note

This information is valid only for ≥ 1.18.x of 1.x releases of AIP Console. If you are not yet using ≥ 1.18.x, please upgrade before importing your Applications.
If you are using ≥ 2.x, importing applications managed in CAST Management Studio can be actioned using the Import Applications button available in the Admin Center. See Administration Center - Applications.

Prerequisites and best practices

✅	One Application per combined schema installation	You can import multiple applications into AIP Console, however, there must be only one Application (the one to be imported) declared in any existing Management schema. In other words, the Applications to be imported must have dedicated combined schemas (Management, Analysis and Dashboard schemas).
✅	Application/schema version	The application you want to import into AIP Console must have the same AIP schema version number as the AIP Node you are importing into.
