Filtering report data
You can filter the Flow Monitor Log by two criteria.
Date and time (on page 1054)
Severity level (on page 1054)
After you apply a filter, the report data refreshes to display data relevant to the applied filter.
Filtering by date and time
By default, the Flow Monitor Log shows data for the previous fifteen minutes.
To change the time frame for which the Flow Monitor Log report displays data:
1 At the top of the report, select Date range. A list of common time periods appears.
2 Select one of the available time periods.
3 If you select Custom, the Start time and End time fields appear.
Note: Flow Monitor only displays data from one database at a time, and by default, displays
the most current data. If you select a time period that includes data stored in both the Flow
Monitor database and the Flow Archive database, a note displays below the date range
informing you that not all data is shown for the specified date range. For example, if you
select a date that includes 39 days of archived data, and one hour of current data, one hour
of current data is displayed in the report. You must modify the report's date to view the
archived data.
a) In Start time, select the date and time that corresponds with the beginning of the
time period for which you want to see data.
b) In End time, select the date and time that corresponds with the end of the time
period for which you want to see data.
Tip: Use the Standard Business Hours feature to set up group reports designed for business
hours only. For more information, see Changing the report date range.
4 Click Go to apply the filter to the report. The report refreshes showing only data from
the time period selected.
Filtering by severity level
By default, the Flow Monitor Log displays data for the Normal severity level.
To change the severity level for which the Flow Monitor Log displays data:
1 At the top of the report, click the Severity level list. A list of the three available severity
levels appears.
2 Select the severity level for which you want to view report data. The report refreshes
with data for the selected severity level.
