help with Reporting on Discovery Results

[sgrant]

I have been struggling with this for a few days, and would love any help I could get. I've looked everywhere, I can't find anything that I've been able to work with.

I am trying to build a report that shows a listing of the devices on the network that are NOT permitting Discovery to run on them. I need to be able to provide this list to the Server Admin team, so they can correct the deficiencies.

I believe I have done the first part, the 2nd, and most challenging, is to restrict the displayed devices to a single instance of each device. 😐 😐 At the moment, I have to export the report to excel and munge it there, to get what I need. If I could do this with a script in the report itself, it would save me much time and effort.

I have attached a screenshot of what I have so far

thanks for your time!

Attached is how we run the report. It's show's SSH, WMI, SNMP failures for auth

Your report is more elegant than mine.
Unfortunately, I still need to remove the duplicates from the list. We are doing testing at the moment, and have multiple entries for a single device (because I am running the scans more than once to verify if the issues we've run into have been resolved)

thanks again, I really appreciate it

Sandy,

Other than export and manual removal of duplicates, did you ever find a way to remove those duplicates during report run?

Thanks,
Wade

With Explore Analytics you can generate those reports without getting swamped with duplicates.

When you look at it as a list, you'll see all the noise of every attempt:

Instead, you can just convert it into a pivot grouped by "device" and you'll get the failures:

You can give it a try against your own environment with the free trial.
