All, We recently installed Report Manager (we are running Spectrum 8.1). The product is much less flexible than I anticipated. I would like to be able to create on-demand reports from scratch based on arbitrary select queries against a user-friendly representation of the event archive. For example, an event report on global collections in which I can control the columns that are displayed (not the Event Code and IP address, e.g., but maybe the Pcause title and model name). Or an alarm report on interfaces in which I can select more than on type of device at a time. Or an event report in which I can perform a count on all alarms of three or four types that occur within a specified period.
(I also do not seem to be able to properly filter on event types on this type of report.) More generally, perhaps there is some way to bypass the Report Manager and work directly with Business Objects? Report Manager seems frustratingly limited. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
