Viewing cloud group reports

You can view, customize, and print reports for each cloud group.

Before you begin

In the cloud group reports, you can review details like usage peaks, averages, and so on.

You must be assigned System level, Cloud group administration role with permission to View all cloud resources (Read-only) to view cloud group reports.

Procedure

  1. View the Allocation by Cloud Group report by using one of the following methods:
    • Click System > Machine Activity. Click Allocation by Cloud Group and the reports displays in the right pane. If you on 2.3.3.3 or later, navigate to Reports > Machine Activity.
    • Click Cloud > Cloud Groups. If you are on 2.3.3.3 or later, navigate to Cloud > Architecture > Cloud Groups. Click a cloud group name and click the Report icon in the upper right pane.
    The report is comprised of a graph and a table. The graph corresponds to one of the table rows and each table row describes a cloud group. The last row of the table describes the aggregation of all cloud groups. Highlight a table row to see the graph for that cloud group or highlight the last row to see a graph of the aggregated cloud groups.
  2. Optional: Customize the report in the following ways:
    • The report provides three different graphs. The currently displayed graph can be changed by clicking on one of the tabs above the graph: CPU, Memory, or Instances. The following individual data sets can be displayed on each graph:
      • Daily average
      • Daily peak
      • Trend
      • Capacity
      • Instance count (Instances graph only)
    • Click the column header to sort the data in that column. Clicking the column header sorts the data in ascending order, or if the table is already sorted by that column, toggles between ascending and descending order. The data is sorted alphabetically or numerically, depending on the type.
    • From the table, right-click any of the table column headings to add or remove a column heading from the table. For example, to add a cloud group column, right-click a column and select the Cloud Group check box. To remove the cloud group column header, right-click the column and deselect the Cloud Group check box.
    • Select the filters that you want to use.
      • From the Column Name menu, select the filter criteria for columns that you want to display. The column headers that you can choose are listed as follows:
        • Cloud Group
        • State
        • CPU Capacity
        • Allocated CPU
        • Allocated CPU (%)
        • 30-day average CPU Allocation
        • 30-day average CPU Allocation (%)
        • 30-day peak CPU Allocation (%)
        • 30-day peak CPU Allocation
        • Memory Capacity (GB)
        • Allocated Memory (GB)
        • Allocated Memory (%)
        • 30-day average Memory Allocation (GB)
        • 30-day average Memory Allocation (%)
        • 30-day peak Memory Allocation (GB)
        • 30-day peak Memory Allocation (%)
        • Instances
      • Select a comparator filter from the Comparator menu. You can select one of the following comparator filters:
        • starts with
        • does not start with
        • equals
        • does not equal
        • ends with
        • does not end with
        • is blank
        • is not blank
        • greater than
        • less than
        • combine by
      • Enter the value in the Desired Value menu.
      • Click Add after you have made the customized settings.
      For example, typing the value Finance would match cloud groups having names that start with the string "Finance" such as cloud groups named "Finance", "Finance Test", or "Finance Production."
