What is the Data Uptime Reporter?

The Data Uptime Reporter tool allows you to generate on-screen
and printed flow data uptime reports. The Data Uptime Reporter
calculates and displays a rating for each day of flow data based on
the percentage of available individual flow data readings compared
to individual missing data readings. One of three ratings (Good,
Partial, or Missing) is assigned to each day based on the uptime
calculation results. Good days are indicated on the report by a
green block beneath the day in question; Partial days are indicated
in yellow; and Missing days are indicated in red. Profile allows you
to manually specify the percentage of available readings that each
day must contain in order to receive a rating of Good. The default
value for a Good rating is 80, meaning that at least 18 of 24 hours
of the data for the day must be available in order to receive a Good
rating. Partial ratings are assigned when there is some data for the
day, but there is not enough to qualify as Good. A rating of Missing
is assigned to any day when there is no available data.

Flagged and modified data can be included or excluded in the
uptime rating calculation. Flagged data is data that is flagged for
questionable quality; modified data is data that has been manually
altered. For example, if you include flagged data in the uptime
calculation, all data will be included as Good unless a data point is
missing. Generally, reports should include modified data, but not
flagged data.

Print graphical or tabular uptime reports with report format options
that include either Monthly (31 days) data or Quarterly (90 days)
data. The Data Uptime Reporter allows you to display multiple
locations and multiple data entities simultaneously.
