The following sections describe each predefined report available in Management and Monitoring Services:
The topology reports provide information about the topology of a selected Novell ZENworks Server Management Site, segment or custom atlas container. The site-level reports provide details about the discovered devices on each segment in the Novell ZENworks Server Management site. The segment-level reports provide information about the discovered devices on the selected network segment. The custom atlas container report provides information about the computer system in the select container.
Prior to generating the reports, you will need to perform a few operations. For more information see Prerequisites for Generating the Reports.
There are five predefined topology reports:
NOTE:The NCP Servers report is available only at the site level.
The Custom Atlas reports list information of nodes in the current container from which Reporting has been launched, and not of the nodes contained in the sub-level containers.
Because Crystal Reports is invoked by DLLs on the system, you need to install the Sybase ODBC driver. To check if the driver is installed:
From the desktop
menu, click > > .In the
pane, click .Select the Adaptive Server Anywhere driver. You must install Adaptive Server Anywhere if you do not have it on your system. You can install it from the sybase.zip file at companioncd\odbc\sybase\*.*
If you have an older version of Novell ZENworks Server Management, you will need to uninstall it and install the latest version of Novell ZENworks Server Management before you can run the reports.
To uninstall the previous version:
From the desktop
menu, click > > .Select
from the list and remove it.If you have already installed the latest version, then delete the zensnapins.jar file from novell consoleone\lib\zen.
You will need at least MDAC 2.6 SP1 (Microsoft Data Access Component) for running Crystal Reports, particularly on a Windows machine. Check the version of MDAC on your box: select Microsoft Download Center.
> > the tab. The minimum version required is 3.520.7326.0. If the version you have does not match the minimum requirement, you need to upgrade the ODBC core components by downloading fromThis report lists the number of computer systems on the selected segment. If the report is generated at the site level, the report lists the number of systems on each segment. For each segment, the report provides the following information about each connected computer system:
Segment Name
Segment Type
Total nodes on a segment
Node Name
Node Address
Services
MIBs
This report lists the following information for each server on the selected Novell ZENworks Server Management site:
Server Name
Total NCP servers on the site
Server Label
Server Address
Labels (other names by which the server is known)
MIBs
This report provides the following information for each router on the selected Novell ZENworks Server Management segment or site:
Total number of routers on the segment or site
IPX Address
Bound Segments
Services
MIBs
IP Address
MAC Address
This report lists the number of computer systems on the selected segment (segment level) or on all segments in the Novell ZENworks Server Management site (site level). For each segment, the report provides the following information about the systems connected to the segment:
Segment Name
Segment Type
Total segments on the site
IP configuration
IPX configuration
Total nodes on the segment
This report provides information about the routers and bridges on a selected Novell ZENworks Server Management segment or site.
For each router, the report provides the following information:
Router Name
IP Address
IPX Address
MAC Address
Bound Segment
For each bridge, the report provides the following information:
Bridge Name
Bridge Type
Number of Ports
Port: MAC Address and Bound Segment
The alarm reports provide information about the alarms received by the Novell ZENworks Server Management server. There are two types of alarm reports you can generate: Alarm details report and Alarm summary report.
This section provides information on the following topics:
NOTE:The Custom Atlas reports the alarm information from the nodes in the current container only on which Reporting has been launched, and not of the alarms from the nodes contained in the sub-level containers.
Because Crystal Reports is invoked by DLLs on the system, ensure that you have installed the Sybase ODBC driver. For more information, see Management and Monitoring Services Installation
in the Novell ZENworks 7 Server Management Installation Guide.
This report lists Information of the alarms on the site. The report is generated based on the customized settings. The report provides the following information about each connected computer system:
Alarm Severity
Affected object name
Source address
Alarm state
Alarm category
Alarm generator
Alarm time
Alarm owner
Alarm type
Alarm summary
This report generates a brief summary of the alarms on the site. It provides a graphical representation of the distribution of alarms, for the selected number of days. The report provides the following information about each connected computer system:
Alarm Severity
Alarm Category
Alarm Owner
Alarm state
Top alarm types
Top affected objects
Top source address
The Available Trap Information report lists the information of the SNMP traps currently available on the site server. The report is generated based on the MIBs compiled on the site server and provides the following information:
Total traps
Alarms category
Alarm severity
Alarm type
Trap OID
Trap description
The Health Reports provide information about the overall health of a specified Novell ZENworks Server Management site or network segment. Each health report is based on a predefined health profile. The health profiles define the trend parameters that are used to calculate the overall health of the segment or site. There are five predefined health profiles:
In addition, you can modify any of the existing profiles or create your own health report profiles. See Customizing a Health Profile or Adding a New Health Profile.
Reports generated using this profile provide graphs of the following trend parameters and use these parameters to calculate the overall health of the Novell NetWare servers in the selected atlas, segment, or page:
Cache Buffers
Cache Hits
CPU Utilization
Volume Free Space
Reports generated using this profile use the following trend parameters to calculate health:
Cache Hits
CPU Utilization
Disk Free Space
Available Memory
In addition, reports generated using this profile contain trend graphs for the following parameter:
Logged in Users
Reports generated using this profile use the following trend parameters to calculate overall health:
Total Errors
Network Utilization
In addition, reports generated using this profile contain trend graphs for the following parameters:
CRC error packets
Undersized packets
Oversized packets
Fragmented packets
Jabbers
Reports generated using this profile use the following trend parameters to calculate overall health. In addition, reports generated using this profile contain also contain trend graphs for the following parameters:
