IBM Workplace dashboards are standards-based, active dashboards that contain prebuilt portlets that
display best-practice Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). Unlike traditional dashboards that display
the same static information to all users, IBM Workplace dashboards are composite applications that
display highly customized and dynamic data, giving decision makers the real-time visibility they
need to drive results. In addition, IBM Workplace dashboards tie metrics to the underlying business
processes, empowering users to take immediate and effective action based on changes in thresholds or
important business events. Through these capabilities, IBM Workplace dashboards help executives and
managers to proactively monitor business performance, make more informed decisions and quickly
resolve business issues.
IBM currently offers two Workplace dashboards: IBM Workplace Dashboard for Sales and IBM Workplace
Dashboard for Executives.
IBM Workplace dashboards and IBM Workplace Dashboard Framework complement the IBM WebSphere Portal,
IBM Lotus® Domino®, and IBM Workplace software product family whose goal is to bring people,
processes, and technologies together to provide greater business value to you. By helping you more
easily and efficiently integrate your business systems, Workplace, Portal and Collaboration Software
is fulfilling a critical part of IBM On Demand Business strategy.
Specifically, Workplace Dashboard Framework and Workplace dashboards are an important part of
Workplace, Portal, and Collaboration software's strategy to deliver portal-based composite products
that addresses specific business needs. In addition, Workplace Dashboard Framework and Workplace
dashboards play an important role in the IBM commitment to service-oriented architecture (SOA).
Back to top
IBM continues to demonstrate its commitment to the growth of the Workplace Dashboard Framework
platform by leveraging IBM's technical innovations. IBM continues to provide additional business
value to the Workplace Dashboard Framework customer.
All statements regarding IBM's plans, directions, and intent are subject to change or withdrawal

Charge metrics definitions
Value Unit
A Value Unit is a pricing charge metric for Program license entitlements which is based upon the
quantity of a specific designated measurement used for a given Program. Each Program has a
designated measurement. The most commonly used designated measurement is a processor core.
However, for select Programs, there are other designated measurements such as users, client devices,
and messages. The number of Value Unit entitlements required for Your specific implementation of
the given Program must be obtained from a conversion table associated with the Program. You must
obtain a proof of entitlement (POE) for the appropriate number of Value Unit entitlements for Your
implementation. The Value Unit entitlements of a given Program cannot be exchanged, interchanged,
or aggregated with Value Unit entitlements of another Program.
Processor (Value Unit)
A processor (commonly called a "CPU" or "core") is a functional unit within a computing device that
interprets and executes instructions. A processor consists of at least an instruction control unit
and one or more arithmetic and/or logic unit. With multi-core technology, each core is considered a
processor. Not all processors require the same number of Value Unit entitlements. To determine the
number of Value Unit entitlements required, refer to the processor value unit conversion table on
the Passport Advantage Web site
With full capacity licensing, a proof of entitlement (POE) must be
acquired for the appropriate number of value units based on all activated
processors on the server available to the Program or a component of the
Program.

IBM Global Services has transformed its delivery of hardware and software support services to put
you on the road to higher systems availability. IBM Electronic Services is a Web-enabled solution
that provides you with an exclusive, no-additional-charge enhancement to the service and support
available on the IBM eServer platform. These services provide the opportunity for greater system
availability due to faster problem resolution and preemptive monitoring. IBM Electronic Services is
comprised of two separate but complementary elements: IBM Electronic Services news page and IBM
Electronic Service Agent™.
IBM Electronic Services news page provides you with a single Internet entry point that replaces the
multiple entry points traditionally used by customers to access IBM Internet services and support.
The news page enables you to gain easier access to IBM resources for assistance in resolving
technical problems.
The IBM Electronic Service Agent is no-additional charge software that resides on your IBM eServer
system. It is designed to proactively monitor events and transmit system inventory information to
IBM on a periodic, customer-defined timetable. The IBM Electronic Service Agent tracks system
inventory, hardware error logs, and performance information. If the server is under a current IBM
maintenance service agreement or within the IBM warranty period, the Service Agent automatically
reports hardware problems to IBM. Early knowledge about potential problems enables IBM to provide
proactive service that may result in higher system availability and performance. In addition,
information collected through the Service Agent will be made available to IBM service support
representatives when they are helping answer your questions or diagnosing problems.
