Hi again,
This thread only for reporting queries.
1. Host Name are discovered in mix of shortname or FQDN (physical servers and ESX) when I login to java. A part of my report is pulling host names but customer want only short names. I tried to add new data item and used functions like substring, left, position etc but either it throw error during validation or while running report.
But when I run same function in mysql query it is working fine. For eg, below is giving me results what I need:
select name, if(position('.' in name) > 0, left(name, position('.' in name)-1), name) as new_host from host
Output of that would be: xxx.yyy.zzz xxx
But if I use same function in cognos report studio, and run it, I get error. Attached is the screenshot. For simplicity I am just using hostname in a report and another data item where I use function, pass hostname as input. Screenshot is 3 in 1, query explorer, new data item expression and result of that query.
2. In 1 of the report I am pulling host IOPS data. I can see the data when I run it in tabular form in query explorer but not in HTML. A point to note here is those host have 0 IOPS as that is test environment. So just want to confirm that is there any kind of validation that 0 IOPS wont show in HTML or excel version of reports. FYI there is no filter to exclude hosts which have 0 IOPS.
3. Storage Utilization reports working well for some devices but not with HDS VSP G series. In OCI server I can see values recorded for IOPS but reports are blank. Again this is test environment so no load on that array but I expect "0" as a value in report rather than showing blank.
