Hi,

I'm capturing data now, and the next thing I would like to do is send it
to management and clients. I know I can have them access as guest and
see the graphs, but I was wondering if anyone has created any reports? Upper management wants something that can be emailed to them so they don't have to go 'do' anything.

I'm monitoring system performance and disk usage, so I would like to have a report that would show high/low/average system load, and amount of disk used for a specified time period.

Any suggestions?

Thanks.

Any luck with these reports? I am interested in a weekly disk usage report. And am looking for ideas on how to generate it.

I had to produce some reports recently and was able to get to them by accessing the database directly.

I had to setup the appropriate select priviledges on the Mysql db and then used an ODBC connection to get the data into Access. From memory the ODBC driver was freely available from the Mysql web site.

The reports I needed were fairly quick and dirty but I think the general mechanism should work for your purpose.

Sorry, I should have been more clear.

How are you deciding what value to take? Are you just taking the most recent? Since the values are stored with a timestamp, I am tring to figure out the best way to create a report with an arbitrary date, like last Tuesday, or the 1st day of last month. Any thoughts?
