Troubleshoot a VM as a report

Hello,

is it possible to create a report which looks like the Troubleshoot a VM Dashboard. I really like the look and feel of the report.

Purpose is I wan't to create a report per selected VM with exactly the same data as the dashboard within a requested timeframe.

I tried to create the same report but it is not possible to select a date or show the content of the dashboards below.

I also tried to create a simple dashboard with below statistics. When I import the dashboard into a report it only shows me the 2 first values, the 3rd is cutoff in between two pages and the 3 last values are not shown.

CPU Avarage Demand (Mhz)

CPU Demand (Mhz)

CPU Ready (%)

CPU Total Capacity (Mhz)

CPU Usable Capacity (Mhz)

CPU Contention (%)

Best regards

Davy

Hello Elizabeth,

thanks for your reply. If I see this correctly these are max values and averages?

What I want is to see the diagrams with these values for a specific time range for a specific server.

Do you know if it is a bug in the system that those diagrams are cut off from the report in between pages?

Best regards

Davy

Hello Davy,

I have already created reports where the graphics were cut between the pages. I solved the problem by editing the report.
 
The attached file shows a sample of this dashboard. It helps me a lot to diagnose problems.
