Viewing an OS Image History report

The OS Image History report displays the history of OS images installed on a device. The report includes OS image history for images installed internal or external to the TrueSight Network Automation system.

To generate an OS Image History report

2. Enter the following information in the displayed fields:
3. Click Generate to begin the report generation and to display its progress on the Report Activity page.
   

1. Click Refresh until the report is completed, or wait until you receive the notification email. If the report is aborted, the Progress column indicates so, to alert you that the report data is partial. You can view the partial report, but be aware it is partial. You should refine your selections (if you asked for too-large a report) or re-generate the report (if it was aborted due to a system shutdown) in order to obtain a complete report. Then delete the aborted report as soon as possible.
2. Click the OS Image History link in  the Report column to display the report.
   
3. Verify the report is complete. If the report was aborted, the title and the Report Generation information in the footer inform you so, and the footer informs you about the user who aborted it. An aborted report will be missing one or more devices and OS images.
