Diagnostics Report
Chapter 8 Generating Reports 247
The report is similar to the example shown in Figure 126:
Figure 126 Example of Comparison Report
The comparisons are presented in the form of graphs (bar or pie charts). As with
indicator graphs, you can enlarge a graph by clicking it.
In the bar charts, the objects are always presented in decreasing order of their values.
The objects being compared are along the x-axis, and the y-axis shows the values.
When you display a pie chart in full-page mode, a legend shows the object labels
associated with the colors in the pie chart. One color is assigned to each of the top 15
objects, and all of the objects with lower values are combined under the “Others”
label.
Diagnostics Report
Each night, the diagnostic module collects the threshold crossings and performs an
analysis process based on data-mining technologies. This process extracts the main
indicators and data that are responsible for the encountered problems and publishes
a Diagnostics report that focuses on the key network points.
The Diagnostics report proposes a data reliability model: a list of metrics responsible
for the symptoms observed with a relative importance factor for each one in the
model.
NOTE
The Diagnostics report is generated only if you have a PATROL DashBoard
Diagnostics Module installed and configured in your system and if you have
correctly configured reports.
