Visual Overview – How to configure variables when visuals are embedded

Solved1.14K views16th June 2021Visual Overview

I have a server Visual Overview containing an overview of my different Linux and Microsoft servers. When the user clicks on a server, the visual of that element gets embedded.

Each element visual make use of card variable varSelectedDiskTrendParameterIndex which gets an value C: assigned for Microsoft servers and value *root.0 for Linux servers.

When I open the element visuals, everything works.

Microsoft Visual

Linux Visual

When I open my server Visual Overview, the Microsoft visual gets loaded as it should be.

But when I select my Linux server, the card variable doesn't contain the correct value. I guess that the value of my Microsoft element is still used.

Is there a way that this can work without making use of different card variable names in the different Visual Overviews?

The best way to to be sure of variable value is to temporarily add a small shape showing the  variable.
If the value is indeed still the variable of the windows server, the easiest workaround is probably to use global session variables instead of card variables.
