System Availability Report

Votes:

0

Hi I was wondering if it's possible to use PRTG to create an overall availability figure for the systems over the last month?

I'm guessing there will be business logic that needs to be defined, for instance 1 DNS server failure isn't an outage, but 2 is etc.

I'd love to get something I could run, or have a live figure on a webpage somewhere showing a single % figure for the last 30 days.

Thanks in advance

Rich

Hi,

The default reporting feature of PRTG is not capable of business processes, it will simply display the downtime of each selected object. You can create a Sensor Factory Sensor and define certain error conditions, like in your example (rule out the DNS server). Afterwards, you can create a report using this sensor.

Best regards, Felix
