Hello everyone
I'm working in a few reports with IT Analytics on Altiris.The company i'm providing services is asking me for two reports:
- All computers with hardware information installed and - All computers with software information installed
The first report has been done properly, with good results, as expected
The second report, is giving me a bit of a problem, because of the amount of data generated and that Excel is not able to complete the OLAP query when exporting data.
The report I'm generating is having the following fields:
Computer: name > Computer: Model > Software component: Company > Software Component: Name
As you can see, I' have a lot of software info from one computer. Now, I imagine the size of these report as I have a pool of 1200 computers active on Altiris and counting.
I know that there's lots of data, but isn't SMP itself being able to handle this type of reporting?
What if a company has more than 2000 computers running inventory want a report of this size? Will it have a problem of this kind?
Is there a way to export this big report without this concern? Or am i missing an optimize step for IT Analytics?
Thanks for your suggestions and replies
