Generating Reports

Traverse has extensive and flexible reporting generated in real time from data collected by your DGE extensions and relayed to your Traverse instance in the cloud. Navigate to Reports to access the different report capabilities. Traverse reports are organized and accessible in four areas, each one serving a specific purpose.

Advanced

These are a set of pre-defined reports that allows users to view and analyze different "types" of performance data for a user-specified set of devices or containers (and some additional context depending on the report itself). These reports are designed to allow users to quickly perform specific types of operational analysis of the IT infrastructure, and answer some commonly asked questions for specific tests, devices and containers.

Custom

There reports allow users to conduct system-wide or broader analysis of events, thresholds, capacity, future-trending and availability. Users have greater flexibility in selecting the report parameters, and can choose to run more granular reports for specific test, devices and containers if desired.

SLA

These reports are designed for the purpose of historical and deeper analysis of the SLA metrics and measurements configured and monitored in Traverse.

Ad Hoc Reports (My Reports)

Users can create ad hoc report queries for the first three types of reports, and retrieve and run these in the future. Traverse allows adding individual components from the various pre-defined reports into the same composite, user-specific report. The reporting framework is very flexible and allows completely arbitrary user-defined statistics generated on an as needed basis.

1. Run a report, and then click on the icon next to a component title to bring up the Add To My Reports dialog.
2. Name your ad hoc report in the Create A New Report field, and then click Submit.
3. Your saved report now shows up when you navigate to Reports > My Reports, where you can click the name of the report to run it.

Scheduling Automatic Reports

You can also schedule any saved report (saved query parameters or ad hoc reports) to execute automatically and email the results to a list of recipients.

1. Navigate to Reports > Emailed > Create A Scheduled Report.
2. Name your scheduled report in the Scheduled Report Name field, use the drop-down Generate Using Saved Query menu to select a saved report, and then enter the recipient(s) and define the schedule.
