Exporting Measurements Reports

You can schedule periodic exports of data from the Measurements Report page. Measurements data can be exported immediately, or you can schedule exports to occur daily or weekly. If filtering has been applied on the Measurements Report page, only filtered data is exported.

During data export, the system automatically creates a CSV file of the filtered data. The file will be available in the file management area until you manually delete it, or until the file is transferred to an alternate location using the Export server feature. For more information about using Export Server, see Data Export.

Note:

The maximum number of columns displayed in the Measurement report GUI is limited to 150 columns. Export the report to view all columns.

Note:
The time it takes to generate a single report is based on these factors:
- Number of MPs
- Number of records, for example, data size
- Number of measurement groups/subgroups in a report
- Overall CPU use on the NOAM/SOAM while generating a report
- Number of reports selected
- Frequency of report generation
