Chapter 14: Reporting

There are two types of reporting possibilities in SolarWinds Virtualization

Manager, On-demand reporting and Data exports.

Reports can be configured to run on a periodic basis according to a schedule and

are known as Scheduled report jobs.

Data exports

You can export the results of any search query or list to a Microsoft Excel

spreadsheet in XLS format. When it is exported, you can download the results

immediately or save them as a report for sharing with other Virtualization Manager

users. This is particularly useful when you want to share the results of a query,

condition, or state of your virtual infrastructure with others. You can either provide

the export results in Microsoft Excel (XLS) format for emailing to others who do

not have access to Virtualization Manager such as managers, suppliers, or

vendors, or place the report in a shared folder within Virtualization Manager for

other users to see.

Generating exports

To generate an export, perform the following steps:

1. Select one or more items in the search results page, or in the active list.

2. Click Export.

3. In the left column of the Data Export screen, verify that you have selected

the appropriate objects to export data from. If you have not selected the

objects you wanted, click either Load list or Load search to reset the

Export These Items list.

4. Click Add Attribute in the right column.
