Calendar for a Data Request Chapter 1: The Netcool/Proviso Product Suite You can use a calendar for an SNMP data collection request. A calendar defines periods for data collection. For example, you can schedule data collection for specific days and times. You can also alternate different calendars to a data collection to suit your needs. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide. Formulas You can create and modify custom formulas for use as discovery and collection formulas. A formula is a script, written in a proprietary language developed by Micromuse Corporation. A formula lets you customize the information gathered by Netcool/Proviso DataMart. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide. Objects You can manage resources using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor GUI or from the command line using the Resource Manager. Managing resources includes: • Viewing resource information • Viewing property details • Exporting resources • Importing resources • Adding thresholds • Adding resources • Deleting resources • Deleting properties • Deploying reports For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide and the Netcool/Proviso Command Line Interface Guide. Reports Automatic report deployment involves associating reports with dynamic grouping rules by using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor GUI or from the command line using the Resource Manager. Associating reports with the grouping rules ensures that the reports are deployed by any new groups generated by the rule. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Configuration Guide and the Netcool/Proviso Command Line Interface Guide. Netcool/Proviso Functional Overview, Version 4.3.1 9
Chapter 1: The Netcool/Proviso Product Suite The DataView Module The Netcool/Proviso DataView module is an application server for producing and managing Web-based network reports. Configuration Tasks The following sections describe the key configuration tasks for the DataView module. Security DataView security needs to be configured for reports and DataView tools, and the SilverStream security for application server access. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataView User’s Guide. Reports You create reports by modifying reporter parameters. A reporter is the framework of the report based on a style sheet. It contains the parameters needed to produce a report, such as metric formulas, drilldown links, labels, titles and so on. Reporters are accessed through the DataView Navigator. Deploying Reports You can deploy reports either manually or automatically. • Manual Report Deployment You can manually deploy reports against individual resources or resource groups through the reporter parameters. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataView User’s Guide. • Automatic Report Deployment Automatic report deployment involves associating reports with dynamic grouping rules by using the Netcool/Proviso DataMart Resource Editor GUI or from the command line using the Resource Manager. Associating reports with the grouping rules ensures that the reports are deployed by any new groups generated by the rule. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataView User’s Guide and the Netcool/Proviso Command Line Interface Guide. Associating Users with Reports You need to associate users with the reports that you want them to view. When you set up user access to reports, you associate the user with specific resource groups. This association lets the user view the reports deployed to that group. The resource groups you associate the user with are generated in the Netcool/Proviso DataMart module. For more information, see the Netcool/Proviso DataView User’s Guide. 10 Netcool/Proviso Functional Overview, Version 4.3.1
