Abstract
CA Performance Management leverages modern web
technologies and an open API to enable you to customize your
data consumption experience. This hackathon session will
provide hands-on access to the solution's open API and to
experts who will help you create usable apps for customizing
your own data visualizations. You don’t need web technology
development experience to participate—you’ll learn some
simple tips and tricks to bring your data to life.

Install Apps
§ Pre-requisites:
– CA Performance Management 3.0 (requires custom attributes feature)
– OpenAPI Weather-map installed
§ GitHub:
– OpenAPI device geo-location attributes defined
§ GitHub:
– OpenAPI interface connection information
§ GitHub:
– Follow install instructions in README for each app

Create Connection Attribute
Step 1. Create custom attribute to
define our device to device
connections
§ POST to Data Aggregator
§ ItemType: Port
§ Type: String
§ Name: ConnectsTo

Create Group Rules
Step 2. Create group of
Weather-map devices and
interfaces
§ Device alias contains ‘Core’
§ Interface alias contains ‘->’

Set Geo-Location Data
Step 3. For each device to be
placed on map
§ Set geo-location information
in context page
§ Set alias to ‘<Site XYZ> Core
Router’

Set Circuit Connections
Step 4. For each device to be
placed on map
§ Set connection information in
interface context page
– ConnectsTo <device>
§ Set alias to ‘Location A ->
Location B’

Validate Configuration
Step 5. Allow OpenAPI ETL Job to
complete and verify group contents
and geo and connection tags set
properly

Verify Groupings
Step 6. Verify
Performance Center
group contents and
alias values via
inventory views

Install and Launch Weather-map
Step 7. Launch Performance
Center Weather-map App
dashboard and select group
created in step 1

Weather-map Functionality
Each site within target group
displayed on map and in table
(sorted by CPU Util descending)
Site color based on threshold range
Key metrics for all connected
circuits shown (sorted by Util desc)

Hover over site to view Info and KPI values

Select a site on map or in
table to view connections
Circuits filtered to only show those
to/from selected site
Circuit color based on threshold range

Hover over a circuit to view info and
KPI values

Customizing Weather-map App Options
§ Options are configured as parameters passed to app via Performance
Center browser view
– connect=full | half
§ Controls the way the connections are drawn to enable line over-lap in larger
configurations
full half

– scope= usa | europe | world (default)
§ Allow map to be focused on specific continent for maps not requiring a
global perspective
usa europe world

– theme= dark | light
§ Controls the theme and colors
dark light

Other Open API Apps
§ Visit our GitHub Repository for other great apps thatcan easily be
deployed and customized
https://github.com/CA-PM

Summary
§ Refer to your lab hand-outs for step by step instructions to
– Deploy Apps necessary for CA Performance Management Weather-map
– Configure custom attribute and group rules to simplify data visualization
– Leverage the OpenAPI Apps to create the geo-location and connection data which is
consumed by the map
– Run and troubleshoot
§ What could be changed to make this more applicable to your environment?
§ How would you make those changes?

Thank you.
