Creating a SPARC SuperCluster Report

12c Release 1 (12.1.0.0.0)

E29308-01

April 2012

This guide provides an end-to-end example for how to use Oracle Enterprise Manager Ops Center.

Introduction

In general, using reports, you can view the rack setup for each of the rack within the system including the asset details related to the rack. Reports provide information about your assets, such as job history, firmware, OS updates, and incidents. Reports are created in PDF and CSV formats. You can export reports or use reports to launch jobs on targeted assets.

In this guide, you will learn how to create a SPARC SuperCluster Report and view the report in the desired format. Using the report, you can check for any issues within the rack. For example, after the report has been created successfully, view the Validation Table in the report. The Validation Table displays the validation results of the rack. If a different component was placed in the slot, the expected component for that particular slot is displayed in the Expected Component column. If an asset is missing from the slot, the same is reported in the Expected Component column with the correct component that must be placed in that slot.

You can create the report using the available templates or create your own style of report.

6. Select a schedule for the report. You can schedule the report to run on the following instances:

- Now – Runs the report immediately.

- At a later date/time – Select a date and time to generate the report.

- On a Recurring Schedule – Select the month and day when you want to generate the report. Select the Start Time, End Time and Number of Hours between runs. This is to set the number of times the report is generated between the specified start and end time. For example, if you set the start time at 6.00 a.m, end time at 12.00 a.m, and the number of hours between runs as 2, then the report is run at 6.00 a.m, 8.00 a.m, 10.00 a.m, and 12.00 a.m.

7. Click Next. The Summary wizard opens.

8. Verify the report parameters and click one of the options as required:

- Save Template and Close – Saves the report as a template and closes the wizard. You can use the report template to generate the report later.

- Run and Close – Runs the report and closes the wizard window.

What's Next?
