I have a dashboard with multiple graphs based on the WMI info from one system. I am putting the WMI info in a selected index and only the systems that I am monitoring with the specific WMI counters are in that index.
I would like to change all the searches in search graphs in the dashboard by selecting a host name from a pull down list.
I am on version 4.2.5 do I need to have a developer do this or do I have to wait till 4.3 comes out to get this kind of dashboard functions as a beginner.
This type of thing is also illustrated in the UI Examples. It's using the Advanced XML--but at least it's native Splunk stuff.
The easiest way to do this is by using Sideview Utils app. You can get the app here: http://splunk-base.splunk.com/apps/36405/sideview-utils. Install it and check out the examples with under Key Techniques: Pulldown static/dynamic content.
