(3) Supplemental notes
-
Templates can be registered for each monitored service. A maximum of 32 templates can be registered for one monitored service.
-
Nonexistent dates in the report interval are not aggregated into report tables, performance charts, or CSV files. For example, if the report start date is May 31, and the report interval is set to 1 month, the period from May 31 to June 30 is included in the report interval, but June 31 is not included. Or, in the case of a comparison to previous data, the period from May 1 to May 30 is counted as falling within the report interval, but April 31 is excluded.
-
Because the retention period for ITSLM report data is five years, you cannot specify a report start date that is earlier than the same date five years previous, based on the system time on the host on which you are displaying the ITSLM windows.
