Auto rotate list in Object list

Hi,

I need to create an info dashboard that is fed through an Object List widget and was wondering if there's a way to auto rotate the objects in the Object List i.e. if I am targeting all hosts in a cluster and there are 30 hosts, the dashboard will automatically go through each host in the Object List (say every 30 seconds) and display the metrics I need to display.

Thank you.

I looked at something similar a wile back but never implemented it so not sure if it would work

I dont know of a way yo cycle through objects on a widget every 30 seconds ( But i like the idea)

You could create a dashboard for each host and add what you want then use the Reorder/autoswitch dashboards feature to switch dashboards every 30 seconds. The benefit is you can all all sorts of widgets for each dashboard but the down side is you will need to create 30 dashboards

Yep, that looks like the only I can do it for now...the problem is that we have a lot of hosts and I wanted something dynamic.
