Has anyone attempted to modify the NCM Config Change Report? I would like to suppress the "no configs to compare" message on the daily report we run "Show changes made over the past [2] days."
Currently running NCM v6.0 SP1
Thanks
"No configs to compare" are you downloading configs on a nightly basis?
I too an having a similar issue. I am running NCM v6.1 (tried v7 to find out SW integrated NCM with NPM, rolled back. Heads up SW, not everyone wants an integrated product like that.)
Anyway, my daily config change report is showing "no configs" most of the time. The download job is setup to only download a config when it sees a change. The config change job is setup to only check the last 1 day, or if there is no config from the last day to compare the running against the last one downloaded ( a checkbox in the job settings I believe). Before in version 5 the job used to say " no changes". How can I get it to say No Changes or if there is truely no changes for the timeperiod, omit it from the report? Any suggestions? Thanks
Hi whitejcdc,
the option to omit "no changes" from change report is already tracked as feature request #90604.

"No Changes" was not what I was pointing out, its was the "No Configs" that it is displaying instead.
The job clearly is setup to look at the currently and any last known saved config and check for differences. The job then should display "No changes" if the configs are not different, otherwise show the differences. But instead its displaying "No Configs" instead of "No Changes". That needs to be looked as to why its doing that.
"No Configs" should be used for when there truly is not a previous config to compare against, but there are. All of my nodes have at least one downloaded. So really the job should never currently say "No Configs" unless I add a new node or if I delete all of the current configs for one.
Please look into this.
