Hello,
On Splunk 6.2 I want to change users default dashboard and I wish to do this for all new Splunk users. Currently we are running search head clustering. I know that this is controlled by $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/<USER>/local/user-prefs.conf. initial I thought I could use $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/ui-prefs.conf, but that doesn't seem to work. Next I thought $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/system/local/user-prefs.conf would work but after reading the spec user-prefs.conf only applies to $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/users/<USER>/local/ directory.
display.page.home.dashboardId = /servicesNS/nobody/<appName>/data/ui/views/<viewName>
Hi,
There is a user-prefs app ($SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/user-prefs) in which you could add a local configuration of display.page.home.dashboardId
in user-prefs.conf such as:
[general]
display.page.home.dashboardId = /servicesNS/nobody/launcher/data/ui/views/Default_Homepage
This would then be applied for all users. If a user already had a home dashboard set, then their setting would still override this app level setting.
