The Command Usage reports allow you to monitor the execution of various commands on servers.
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 Setting-up-data-collection-for-Command-Usage-reports.
WarningNote
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.
The following table summarizes the built-in Command Usage reports. For information about running these reports, see Running-built-in-reports.
