Data Reporter Operator

The IBM® Data Reporter Operator accepts events and transforms them into reports that are submitted to the Data Service of the IBM Metrics Operator.

As a Maximo Application Suite administrator, configure the IBM Data Reporter Operator (DRO) to collect and process metrics for licensing compliance.

Raw json event data is sent to an endpoint that is serviced by the IBM Data Reporter Operator. The event data is transformed into a report and is sent to the IBM Data Service. The IBM Data Service periodically uploads the reports to Red Hat® Marketplace.

In non-airgap environments, event data is uploaded hourly. In airgap environments, IBM Data Reporter Operator provides a manual mechanism to obtain and upload events to IBM. For more information about uploading data, see Export and import usage reports using Data collection CLI.
