Filtering Indicators, Multiple Expressions, Dates, Percentages, Yes/No

  • When filtering on Indicator Lights, as shown in the following example, filter on the color: Red, Yellow, Green, or Gray.

  • To combine several expressions into one filter, select an and or or operator from the drop-down list at the end of the row.

  • When filtering on dates, refer to the following table to determine which columns can be filtered on date. Be aware that filtering on Dates needs to be carefully designed in order to avoid degradation of performance. Date criteria can be specified in the following formats:

    mm/dd/yyyy

    Specified date

    Now

    Current date and time

    Today

    Current day

    +nd

    -nd

    Enables a variable time frame (plus or minus a number of days)

    For example: +2d

    This criteria can be combined with Today.

    For example: Today-5d

    +nh

    -nh

    This hour option enables a selection of a date and time, plus or minus a number of hours from the current time.

    For example, in the Job Summary Report, select all jobs where the Finish Time was greater than -12h. This would isolate jobs for only the last 12 hours.

  • When filtering on percentages, such as in the NetApp Volume Summary Report, enter a decimal value equivalent to the percentage.

    ex.

    100% - 1.0

    75% - .75

    50% - .50

    25% -.25

    10% - 0.1

  • When filtering on Yes/No values, enter Y or N for the values.

  • Click OK to regenerate the report with the filter applied.

The report will now contain a filter applied link, enabling access to the defined filter. When you save this report, the filter is saved with it.

To filter reports by columns

Note:

Reports can have both row and column filters applied.

The following tabular reports do not support column filtering:

  • Billing and Chargeback Summary

  • Chargeback by Host

  • Array Performance by RAID Group

  • Port Throughput by Array

  • Datastore Performance Summary

  1. Generate a tabular report, such as the Job Summary or the VM Summary report.
  2. Click Actions and select Filter.
  3. Click the Columns tab. By default, all columns are checked.
  4. Uncheck the columns to remove from the report.
  5. Click OK to regenerate the report with the filter applied.

    The report will now contain a filter applied link, enabling access to the defined filter. When you save this report, the filter is saved with it.
