Display increment of used capacity over a month

Hi guys,

I'm looking for a way do display in a table the increment of used capacity for a storage volume over a specific time period (i.e. a month), instead of the standard display mode which can only operate with the last value (or its average in a period).

Should I play with formulas to obtain the difference between the last sample and an older one? How to do it?

Thanks!

Hi liv913,

This would definitively be easier to do with a graph or an interactive table. You might be able to achieve this by selecting "min" as the Sampling type and "use a fixed time range last 1 month" as the Column time Range.

Regards,

Isaka

You can try using the math.delta formula and give the number of periods as 30. Use the time settings for the report to have 1 day values using last aggregation.

The below link should give you an idea

Hi, I tried the procedure you suggested but I have some issues with calculations.

See below... I would expect a difference of 3 TB for Tuesday:

I have updated delta formula with the fix you suggested, because we're using SRM 3.7.

Calculations have been defined in the following way:

What am I missing?

Thanks!

Would you be able to send me a copy of your report definition ? Could you set your parent reports time configuration as follows on the Report configuration tab

Could you please try importing the below report  and see if it gives you the right numbers ?

Mmm it seems I cannot run your report, maybe because we have a different version of SRM... see what I find in the logs:

Exception occurred during processing request: com.watch4net.apg.v2.gui.tree.expansion.parser.ParseException: Encountered " "  "" at line 1, column 19.

No I have the same error. We'll try to update SRM to v4 during the next week, maybe after that it will work...
