Reporting

This section provides the user with the ability to generate analysis reports on the status of the data centre. These reports provide a summary of data centre activity based on the detection of Ghost, Idle, Lazy, Busy, Undersized and Oversized. They also allow you to have an inventory of your data centre, to export recommendations, the evolution of its infrastructure via KPIs or Capacity Planning or the export of GreenIt data.

reporting

You can quickly generate reports according to the type of report you want, "Management", "Operations" or "Recommendations". You can also customise your report by selecting the desired sections and sub-sections by clicking on the "Generate Personalized Report" button.

VM Behavior

Default Graphs

This visualization in table form is present in the reports. Each line corresponds to a VM. The behavioural analysis of the VM is performed according to different noise levels and activity thresholds. Thus, for each column corresponding to a noise level (100, 99.99, 99.9 and 99), there are 3 columns corresponding to the activity threshold (10, 5, 2). This visualisation has 2 advantages:

  • it allows to prioritise the VMs with the least activity
  • not to forget useless VMs.

Customisation

You have the possibility to integrate your own logo for the reports.
