[Workflow]: Channel Performance Reporting

The Application Server database reporter allows you to connect to the Application Server database and generate reports and accompanying graphs of channel performance statistics.
A sample workflow, starting with designing a report template and finishing with viewing a report, is as follows:
 
Channel Performance Reporting  
1.  
If you plan to use any of the four Availability default report templates1 in this workflow, configure the Application Server’s SQL Event Log plugin to clear resolved incidents automatically after 1 second (click HERE).
2.  
Distinguish the alarms associated with the desired channels from other alarms by building a virtual alarm (click HERE).
3.  
Open Event Log Viewer on the Application Server whose database you would like a report of (click HERE).
4.  
Configure filtering criteria in the Log Viewer’s report fields to fine-tune the report parameters.
See:
5.  
Perform one of the following two tasks:
• Create a new report template to customize the filtering parameters of your reports, then generate a report (click HERE).
• Select an existing report template to generate a report (click HERE).
6.  
If desired, display the report in a Web browser (click HERE).
7.  
If desired, download the report as a PDF file (click HERE).
8.  
If space is an issue on your Application Server database, and you no longer require the use of any of the Availability default report templates, disable the SQL Event Log Plugin’s automatic incident clearing functionality (click HERE).
1 The Availability default report templates are as follows: 10  Channels with Highest Availability Last 24 hours, 10 Channels with Highest Availability Last 7 days, 10 Channels with Lowest Availability Last 24 hours, 10 Channels with Lowest Availability Last 7 days
