In my previous post, I introduced my OSG Chrome App. In this post, I want to introduce one feature of the chrome app, Embedding profiles.
Part of my morning routine is checking multiple websites for the status of the resources at Nebraska. For example, I check our dashboard page that I've written about before. And I check the HCC GlideinWMS status page.
The HCC GlideinWMS status page shows only the monitoring information. In order to see any accounting data, I have to navigate to the GratiaWeb site and filter for hcc usage. Instead I want to view the accounting data on the same page as I am viewing GlideinWMS status. And so I added the ability to Embed a set of graphs using the Chrome App.
I clicked the green share button at the top, and entered the name and description of the profile. Then I submitted the profile for sharing. It returned an embed link that I can use on the webpage.
Once I have this embed URL, I can copy / paste that HTML into the HCC GlideinWMS page and it will show HCC data every time I visit.
And that's it.

Creating a HCC GlideinWMS Profile
First, I need to create a glideinwms profile for hcc. I have 2 questions that I want answered, who is running, and where are they running. In this case, I am playing the role of a VO Manager. I want to see usage filtered by VO, specifically my VO, HCC. The VO Manager role gives me 2 graphs by default, total usage per VO, and where the VO is running. But it doesn't include what users are running in my VO. Therefore, I want to add a new graph, the Glidein (since HCC uses GlideinWMS) per user graph, which is on gratiaweb.
To add a graph, I followed the documentation to add the Glidein per user graph. I copied and pasted the graph URL into the box, and it added the graph to my list.

Embedding the Profile
Now that I have the profile showing the data I want to see, I want to embed this data in my webpage. I followed the documentation again, for sharing the graphs and embedding it.I clicked the green share button at the top, and entered the name and description of the profile. Then I submitted the profile for sharing. It returned an embed link that I can use on the webpage.

Once I have this embed URL, I can copy / paste that HTML into the HCC GlideinWMS page and it will show HCC data every time I visit.

And that's it.
