## Accessing the Dashboards

You can access the dashboards through the CMDB Workspace by navigating to Management tools under the Optimize section, or via the All \> Configuration menu. The two dashboards---CMDB Data Foundations and CSDM Data Foundations---are complementary and can be toggled between within the interface.

## Key Features

* **CMDB Data Foundations Dashboard:** Evaluates CMDB configuration and customization, validates critical data, and highlights potential risks. It supports proactive issue prevention and continuous CMDB health management.
* **CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard:** Displays essential CSDM metrics on a single page to help maximize the value of ServiceNow AI Platform products.
* **Built-in Plugin:** The dashboards are enabled by the *com.snc.cmdb.getwell* plugin, which is active by default on base systems.

## Managing Performance

To maintain dashboard performance, especially in large CMDB environments or with many non-compliant Configuration Items (CIs), you can:

* **Deactivate Metrics:** Metrics that consume extensive resources or are not needed can be deactivated via the CMDB/CSDM Get Well Metrics \[sngetwellmetric\] table. Inactive metrics stop data collection and refreshes but retain their status through upgrades.
* **Limit Metrics:** Certain metrics have configurable performance parameters, such as aggregate limits (maximum non-compliant CIs counted), fail count thresholds (number of consecutive failed runs before deactivation), and runtime thresholds (maximum acceptable run time in seconds). These settings help control resource usage without sacrificing critical insights.

Examples of limitable metrics include those related to CIs processed via Integration and Replication Engine (IRE), hardware CIs with serial numbers, and specific relationship types within Application Services and Business Applications.

Metrics automatically deactivate when runtime or failure thresholds are exceeded but can be manually reactivated by updating their status in the metrics table.

## Practical Benefits for ServiceNow Customers

* Gain comprehensive visibility into the health and configuration quality of your CMDB and CSDM.
* Receive actionable recommendations to improve data quality and reduce risks.
* Optimize dashboard performance by customizing metric activity and thresholds according to your environment size and compliance needs.
* Ensure continuous, efficient CMDB and CSDM operations supporting your ServiceNow AI Platform investments.  
The ServiceNow®
CSDM and CMDB Data Foundations Dashboards store app contains dashboards with insights into the key foundational metrics of your CMDB and Common Service Data Model (CSDM). This app uses ServiceNow® health benchmarks to provide recommendations to ensure that the CMDB and CSDM are properly configured for optimal usage and to mitigate any potential risks.  
Note:  
CSDM and the CMDB Data Foundations Dashboards don't support domain separation.

:   The CSDM Data Foundations dashboard displays key CSDM metrics on a single page to assist you in getting the full benefit from your ServiceNow AI Platform® products.

The CSDM and the CMDB Data Foundations dashboards capability is provided by the com.snc.cmdb.getwell plugin, which is activated by default in base systems.

## Access the dashboards {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__section_gft_1r4_ytb}

Use either of the following steps to access the CSDM and the CMDB Data Foundations Dashboards:

* In CMDB Workspace:
  1. Navigate to WorkspacesCMDB Workspace.
  2. Select Management in the CMDB Workspace menu bar.
  3. Select CMDB Data Foundations Dashboard or CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard in Management tools, in the Optimize section.
  {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ol_f5r_xmr_y1c}
* Navigate to AllConfiguration, and then select CMDB Data Foundations Dashboard or CSDM Data Foundations Dashboard.

{#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ul_uqn_fmr_y1c}You can toggle between the two dashboards by clicking the change dashboard icon (![Change dashboard.]()) on the title bar of either dashboard.

## Manage performance {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__section-manage-performance}

It might be useful to manage the performance impact of some metrics that are greatly affected by, for example, a large CMDB or a high number of non-compliant CIs. You can use any of the following methods to manage performance of those metrics to improve the overall performance of the dashboards:

Deactivate a metric

:   Deactivate any CMDB or CSDM metrics that aren't needed or that require extensive resources and affect performance. The active/non-active settings for metrics are preserved across family release upgrades.

    To deactivate a metric:

    1. Access the CMDB/CSDM Get Well Metrics \[sn_getwell_metric\] table where all CMDB and CSDM metrics are stored.
    2. Navigate to the list view of the table \[sn_getwell_metric\].
    3. Locate the metric that you want to deactivate and set its Active column to false.
    {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ol_rlh_wl1_sbc}

    Tiles on the dashboards that are associated with inactive metrics stop collecting data and aren't refreshed.

Limit a metric
:
    For the following metrics, you can use metric-specific settings to limit their performance impact:

    * CMDB metrics:
      * CIs Processed via IRE
      * CIs with Relationships to Parent and Child
      * Hardware CIs with Serial Numbers
      {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ul_ws4_hpr_1bc}
    * CSDM metrics:
      * Application Services with 'Consumes::Consumed By' Relationship to Business Application
      * Application Services with Business Application Relationships
      * Business Application with Application Service Relationship
      {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ul_eld_jpr_1bc}
    {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ul_r3d_ndj_1bc}

    The following columns in the CMDB/CSDM Get Well Metrics \[sn_getwell_metric\] table are set with default values per metric that limit performance impact, some of which can be fine tuned. Review those settings for example, when there is a large number of non-compliant CIs for a metric. Another example is having a large CMDB where a small number of compliant CIs for a metric is already a sufficient indication of health and there is no need to process the rest of the CIs for that metric.

    * Aggregate limit: The maximum number or percentage of non-compliant CIs that are reported for the metric. Once that threshold is reached, counting for the metric stops for the run and the score for the metric is set to 0 (you can't customize the default value).
    * Fail count threshold: The threshold of the number of consecutive metric runs that failed due to exceeding the metric's Runtime threshold. When that threshold is reached, the respective metric is automatically deactivated.
    * Runtime threshold: The time threshold in seconds that is considered too long for a metric run. When exceeded, the current metric run is considered failed.

    {#csdm-cmdb-foundations-dashboards__ul_ct5_xjd_1bc}For most metrics, when the number of consecutive runs that fail because the runtime exceeds Runtime threshold, is greater than the Fail count threshold, the system automatically deactivates the metric. You can manually reactivate a deactivated metric by setting its Active column to true. An exception to those column definitions and usage is the CMDB CIs Processed via IRE metric.
