Dashboard graphs in Admin Portal > Dashboard > System Summary display zero values or remain blank.
Original Question or Issue:
Dashboard graphs in Admin Portal > Dashboard > System Summary display zero values or remain blank.
Environment:
- Product - FileCloud Server
- Version - Any
- Platform - Any
Steps to Reproduce:
- Open Admin Portal > Dashboard > System Summary.
- Observe that the dashboard graphs display no activity data.
Error or Log Message:
Defect or Enhancement Number:
Cause:
- Dashboard graphs are generated from audit log entries.
- When the Audit Log Level is set to OFF, new audit entries are not recorded, causing the dashboard to display zero values.
- When Auto Archive Audit Database is configured with a short archive frequency, audit records are periodically archived and removed from the active audit database, reducing the historical data available for the dashboard.
Resolution or Workaround:
- Navigate to Admin Portal > Settings > Admin > Audit Settings.
- Set Audit Log Level to REQUEST or a higher logging level, as required.
- Review the Auto Archive Audit Database settings and adjust the archive frequency or retention period if additional historical dashboard data is required.
- Generate new user activity (for example, user logins, file uploads, or downloads) and allow time for new audit entries to be recorded.
- Refresh the dashboard to verify that new data points are displayed.
