Global configuration

You can access the Global Configuration page from the Administration tab. To access, select Administration > Systems > Global Configuration. This page shows the current settings of your TrueSight Capacity Optimization installation, allowing you to edit them.

This is mainly a reference page used to get an overview of the configuration parameters, as these properties are usually set during the installation process. By default, tabs are displayed for basic configuration. When you click Advanced, all tabs available for global configuration are displayed.

The available configuration tabs are:
