Viewing datasets and metrics by dataset and ETL module

The Datasets & metrics page provides an overview of all the metrics – By Dataset and By ETL Module – that your BMC Helix Capacity Optimization instance is able to collect and classify. You can access this page by navigating to Administration > Data Warehouse > Datasets & metrics in the Helix Capacity Optimization Console.

The page contains two tabs – By Dataset and By ETL Module.

In each tab, metrics are grouped in homogeneous sets called datasets. To easily browse this list, you can filter the By Dataset tab on a particular dataset by using the Dataset drop-down, and the By ETL Module tab by using the ETL Module and System type drop-downs.

For more information, see:

To view datasets by the By Dataset tab

The By Dataset tab displays the Metrics table. The metrics table in the By Dataset tab is filtered by default on all datasets. To filter it on a particular Dataset, use the Datasets drop-down list.

The Metrics table in the By Dataset tab displays the following information for each metric.

To add a metric

To add a custom metric to BMC Helix Capacity Optimization, perform the following task:

1. Navigate to Administration > Data Warehouse > Datasets & metrics > By Dataset and click Add metric.

2. In the Add metric page, enter values for the following properties:
3. Click Save.

To view datasets by the By ETL Module tab

The By ETL Module tab displays the Metrics table. This table contains detailed information and description about each metric that is populated in your BMC Helix Capacity Optimization instance by all or a particular ETL module (that you select).

The metrics table in this tab is filtered by default on all ETL Modules and System Types. To filter it on a particular ETL Module or System Type, use the appropriate drop-down filter.

The Metrics table in the By ETL Module tab displays the following information for each metric.
