Customizing LDM Portal

Lenovo Device Manager (LDM) offers the customization capability to administrators to select specific devices, OS, and device management features within a specific organization's LDM instance. For new organization(s), LDM supports all devices and operating systems by default.

The first step in customizing the LDM portal is to select the device type(s) supported within the organization. Say, for instance, Smart Edge devices and AR/VR devices are not supported within the organization. Uncheck the checkboxes and click Next to move to the next step.

Once a device has been claimed under a specific device type, user cannot remove the specific device type during customization.

Selecting a Device Type

Check the boxes of the devices you will add to LDM, then click Next.

Selecting Operating System and Configurable Actions

1. Select the Operating System for the first device: Windows, Linux or both.
2. Select your preferred actions and move them to the workspace area or click Select All to select all the configurable actions.
3. Click Next. 
   To add or remove a device type, click the Change devices link and re-select the devices.
4. Repeat the same steps for the other chosen device types to select the configurable actions. Only the selected devices can be claimed under Device Management section. 
5. Click Dashboard Features to move to the next step.

- Operating System selections can be removed and added back later, but at least one applicable operating system must be selected for every device.

- Once a device has been claimed with the selected operating system, user cannot remove the specific OS during customization.

Selecting Features

Select the features (widgets) you want to see on your Dashboard page. By default, all the features will be enabled. 

1. Un-select the checkbox to remove a feature from the dashboard, or click Select All to select all the features or Deselect All to remove all the features from the dashboard.
2. Click Next to move to the next step. 
   

Reviewing your Selections

In the last step, view the customization changes you have done and confirm your preferences.

1. Click Change if you want to make any changes to the customizations.
   
2. Click Apply to confirm your preferences.
   

The customizations will be applied on the LDM Portal. Click on Go to Lenovo Device Manager portal or Customization Home to navigate to the dashboard and validate the changes.
