Report Writer time exclusions

The time exclusions no longer show up in the drop down boxes in the Report Writer.
I only see the date option. Nor sure when this broke, but I suspect it was after upgrading to V7.1
I'm trying to run an availability report for the hours between 8AM & 10PM.

Has anyone else seen this?

Yes, I noticed the same problem when I tried to run our WAN utilisation report for Mon-Fri 08:00 - 18:00 and the same thing happened.

You need to download the report writer exclusions again and add them as per the instructions.

Works after that.

Thanks

I tried installing the exclusions as instructed but I see no drop down boxes or any other options anywhere to set them up. I have version 7.0.5 of Orion. Do I need to upgrade to a newer version?

Network_Guru

It should work in V7.0.5
It shows up only in availability reports - as a separate item under the filter results tab.

Thanks NG. Got it working.

I'm following this thread, but I have not seen any time exclusions anywhere in the availability reports. Where should I be looking, and how?

Network_Guru

Have you downloaded and installed them from the Solarwinds Customer "unsupported" section ?
It should register itself in report writer. The included .pdf file in the zipped download decribes
this in detail.

There is also some mention of this on their web site:
