Alerting and Reporting
Creating SolarWinds UDT-Specific Reports
SolarWinds UDT information is easily presented in a variety of formats using
SolarWinds Report Writer. SolarWinds provides Report Writer as a quick and easy
way for you to extract data from your database, including SolarWinds UDT statistics,
for presentation in a useful form. A number of predefined SolarWinds UDT-specific
reports are available with your installation of SolarWinds UDT. Report Writer also
enables custom SolarWinds UDT report creation, as necessary, using criteria and
conditions you choose. When you have finished editing your reports, you can view
them through the Web Console and print them with the click of a button.
A report scheduling application is available to all customers with a current
maintenance agreement. This tool schedules automatic email reports that can be
sent to individual users or groups of users. Log in to the customer portal of
www.solarwinds.com and download the Report Scheduler.
Report Writer capabilities are further enhanced when they are used in conjunction
with the Custom Property Editor. Custom properties are available for report sorting
and filtering. For more information about using custom properties, see "Creating
Custom Properties."
