Command Usage reports

The Command Usage reports allow you to monitor the execution of various commands on servers and when those commands have been executed.

These reports provide information derived from logs recorded by Remote System Call Daemon (RSCD) agents. The Command Usage reports can also help you troubleshoot issues with particular servers. For the Command Usage built-in reports, see Built-in-Command-Usage-reports.

You collect data for the Command Usage reports using the collect_agent_logs.nsh script, which copies data from agent logs on specified target servers to files on the reports server. Use the script to create a BMC Server Automation Network Shell Script Job that you can run on a regular basis. For more information, see Creating-BMC-Server-Automation-jobs-for-collecting-agent-logs.

Warning

Note

When a Network Shell user has the same user ID as a BMC Server Automation user, the Command Usage reports merge activity associated with those IDs. If you want to view the BMC Server Automation activity of a user separately from that Network Shell activity, you must set up different user IDs for that user on BMC Server Automation and the servers where the user accesses Network Shell.
