Customizing Dashboards

The OpenTelemetry part of the AOS dashboard has 5 cards that point to Grafana dashboards. These cards depend on the the links from under Administrator --> SystemSettings -> System Config. Search for "otel" and you will find a list of settings of type otel with links as shown in the picture below:

Each entry maps to a card on the dashboard. An entry that starts with <infraname>/ applies to the cards for that Infrastructure. Note that in admin dashboard all cards are in the context of the Infrastructure and there is a infrastructure drop down.

Also note that the settings can have place holders like [[TENANT_NAME]] that get dynamically replaced by the platform when the user clicks on the respective button.
