How can I autorefresh a real time form and lookup a display name from Active Directory?

jd0323fhl — Tue, 27 Sep 2016 17:37:45 GMT

I have a dashboard that runs in a real time window of 7 days and shows locked user accounts for Active Directory, Changes to key Admin Groups, and Audit policy deleted by user. It is not updating and the unlock panel runs slowly.

What can I do to get the dashboard (or panels) to show when a real-time event comes in? I've tried adding a form refresh (see code below) and a dashboard interval, but no luck.
Is there a better way to look up the Display name using the Sam Account name than ldapfilter under the "Account has locked" panel?

Note: There is a opening form entry in my XML code on the question, but it is not missing on the Splunk dashboard.

    form refresh="30"
          <label>Active_Directory_Events</label>

Was able to redo the dashboard. Did not need realtime on each panel. Set panel for 7 days and set each panel to auto-refresh every 20 seconds. For the Ldap filter, converted to a lookup table instead that does a scheduled lookup from Active Directory.
