Orion Report Writer Help

I need to create a couple of custom reports. One that shows me the average CPU and Memory utilization of all our routers. We have about 300 routers, and I don't want the individual stats on the report, I just want one line that gives the average of all of them together. I need the same thing for an uptime report. Is this possible, and how do I do it? I need to give the report to management, and they don't care to see all the devices, they just want the average. Thanks

You can do this by doing some work in Custom Property Editor first.

Add a custom property - CPU Report
Now add a description like 'CPU' to all nodes you want to report on.

Now create a report based(filtered) on this new property.
This is the important part - Do NOT select NodeName or ID ias a report field.
Just select the CPU Utilization as the report field.
You will get a single figure based on the average of all nodes with the CustomProperty - CPU in the CPU Report field.

Where able to configure this. I am trying to create a custom screen that has the percent transmit and percent recieved. Any thoughts or directions. I sure would like to some of the displays that you can use from the default drop downs.

Can you be a little more specific about what you're trying to do? There are native resources within Orion to display bi-directional interface utilization, both on summary views, and node details views.

Is there any way to do this on a daily or hourly basis? For instance I am trying to create a report that shows daily CPU utilization for the last seven days. So instead of one average I need seven; one per day.

Okay, I found it under Summarizations Tab in report writer.
