Views and folders in TrueSight Smart Reporting

With TrueSight Smart Reporting, you can generate and administer performance, impact, and event data reports with a simple drag-and-drop action. TrueSight Smart Reporting uses Oracle or SQL Server as the application database. Reports are generated on the data collected by the TrueSight Operations Management Report Engine.

A report contains the following components:

• Folder. A container of fields. Each view has folders, which contain fields that you can use to create event, impact, and performance reports.
• Field. A named component that maps data or a derivation of data in database.
• Conditions. Pre-defined statements that are used to filter the results of a query.

While creating a TrueSight Smart Reporting report, you can select one of the following views:

• Device Metrics & Events. Use this view to create reports for TrueSight Operations Management event and performance data.
• CI Impact & Events. Use this view to create reports for TrueSight Operations Management event and impact data.
