1. Re: Single Dashboard For Multiple Portal

Dashboard itself is another portal (like admin) in a JBoss Portal instance. So the architecture cannot support as is multiple dashboards each specific to 1 portal. Neither I think supporting this would make sense as concept of dashboard is something specific to a user and a user would like to have his/her own dashboard only in a single way.
May be you need to elaborate your need little nit more.

Here is what i think it is there in dashboard in jboss portal currently.
Dashboard is with respect to a single portal context and hence what pages available to a portal only can be added to a dashboard. What i'm trying achive is to provide a dashboard which will be an aggregation of portals. I know at design time we can create another portal where we can create pages as there in already available portals and then associate the portlets to each of these page. But lets say there are already 2 portals running in a single portal instance. At run time we would like to show 2 pages from portal 1 and another 3 pages from portal 2. Where in portal 1 and 2 you have defined page level access specific to user / group. So when the user login to dashboard he can see the appropriate pages from respective portals. To summarize i'm looking at dashboard as parent portal window which can aggregate multiple portals which in turn can have multiple pages and which in turn can have multiple portlets.

sambit_dixit Feb 20, 2009 12:17 PM (in response to sambit_dixit)Hi Vivek,
Thanks for the link. I have looked into this. So do you extend CustomizationManagerService and overwrite the method, then adding this to Jboss-Service.xml of Jboss-Portal.sar or recompiling the existing CustomizationManagerService code and no change in Jboss-Service.xml. What i was thinking of is adding one attribute in mbean descriptor of Jboss-Service.xml, if this attribute is set to ON this will no more copy the template portal, it will copy the portal objects for which user has access. We can probably have a private method in CustomizationManagerService which can handle this scenarios. Just to make sure, Do you see if this change in CustomizationManagerService impacts any other place.
