Report Writer question

da_man

I am trying to create a report for a couple of devices on our network.  I just want to see these 2 devices what time they dropped off the network and what time they came back on the network.  Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

If you create an Event Log type report using Report Writer.

Start > All Programs > Solarwinds Orion > Alerting, Reporting and Mapping > Report Writer

File > New Report

Select Event Log and Click on Ok.

Specify the Fields you wish to appear in your report in the "Select Fields" tab.

Select the Filter Results tab and configure conditions to only display results about your two nodes.

Configure it to display only Event Type "Node Down" and "Node Up" and if you need "Node Warning".

e.g.:

Select records where all of the following apply

< tab > Select records where any of the following apply

< tab > < tab > Event Type is equal to Node Up

< tab > < tab > Event Type is equal to Node Down

< tab > Select records where any of the following apply

< tab > < tab > Node Name is equal to Device1

< tab > < tab > Node Name is equal to Device2

 

The < tab > are just there to show you the tabulation style it will have.

HTH,

Yann
