How to modify a node availability

Hi timt,

There are definitely some good reports out there to display node availability such as this one: https://thwack.solarwinds.com/content-exchange/the-orion-platform/m/reports/1950

I am a little confused as to what you mean by editing the nodes availability?

If you could clarify that would be superb

Sorry for the lack of details.... here it goes, and thanks in advance.

So I run a simple availability query below, in the 'WeightedAvailability' column, I want to edit a few of them, like from 0 -> 60% as an example.  Can I do this on the backend of the database and if so, where should I start?

Can I ask why you would want to adjust it to 60% when it is calculated as 0?

That's giving it as an example.  I would want to edit some node downtime when... the cause of the node down was a direct result of an ISP outtage, or the node was in maintenance as an example.

Sorry I still am a little confused. You are trying to edit data which is already calculated?

wouldn’t editing this make the data false?

That would be similar to me making a report of the number of nodes that went down in a week, the number being 8 and me changing that in the DB so it looks like 5 so the report looks better…

I feel like you may be describing this incorrectly and sorry If I’m not understanding

I guess I may need to call in support for this.  Some availability data calculated, whether it be true or not is solely up to the discretion of the user.  I just want an easy way to edit this data.
