First Thing is to click to "Reports" tab on the top, right hand side of the GRID Management Console (figure_grid_management_console). This page is where all the predefined and custom reports can be find. Now click on the "Create" Button on top of the page to create a new custom report. "Create Report Definition" page comes to the screen. There are four tabs for the definition of the report.
figure_grid_management_console
After specifiying title of the report then select category and subcategory from the comboboxes. Category and subcategory defines our newly custom report's group and standing place in the reports list of the GRID reports page. You can also create new categories by clicking the buttons between the comboboxes.
Targets section enables you to limit the available list of target selection while generating the report or you can select a specified target to be used. I used "Specified Target" and left the textbox blank because this report will apply to all database and rac targets and is not allowed to be changed.
You can enable to select time periods by end user or you can preset the time period from the "Time Period" section (figure_create_report_general_tab). This custom report always displays the last known and most updated state of the databases uptimes and downtimes.
figure_create_report_general_tab
Elements
In the Elements tab, you can define the report elements and their positions in the report page (figure_add_elements_1). Report elements are structures that displays selected data from the GRID Servers repository. Click "Add" Button to add elements. I used IPMSG_USER_CHART_FROM_SQL and IPMSG_USER_TABLE_FROM_SQL elements (figure_add_elements_2). Click on the "Set Parameters" icon on the right hand side of the listed items to obtain a statement for the elements (figure_add_elements_2). Here you can enter the sql statement that brings data into the element from Management Servers repository. Following you can find the sql statements for the elements.
