Need to schedule reports for a specific time from reporter

Hi,

I need to schedule report for Lpar resource usage through reporter. I saw there is an option to schedule it daily, Weekly, monthly, yearly.   For any specific time range example 7 am to next day 7 am it will be in a time range mode and hence will occur once. Can we schedule the time range to execute every day in a specific time and get details of last 24 hours.

Thank you
Regards,
Gaurav Mishra

  • Hi Gaurav,

    this is not implemented in the reporter itself.
    But we have a workaround for that which is available only in the Enterprise edition of the product.

    Here is a documentation: https://lpar2rrd.com/reporter-scripting.php

    1. set report items
    2. set recurrence to daily
    3. set range to last 24 hours
    4. disable this report
    5. schedule bin/genreport.sh in the crontab to be run every day at 7 am
