Deployment Total Duration Report

The Deployment Total Duration Report provides total deployment times for applications that ran during a specified reporting period. The report provides both a tabular presentation and line graph of the data. Each table row represents an environment that one of the selected applications used for the reporting period and interval.

The following elements are included in the line graph:

The units along the Y-axis are scaled to the number of records reported. The units along the X-axis represent the reporting interval, which can be months, weeks, or days. Each color-coded plot line represents a single environment that an application used during the reporting period.

When selected, the report runs automatically for the default reporting period (the current month) and reporting interval (days) and with all filters set to Any. The default report provides total deployment times for all deployments that ran during the current month.

    1. Click Application.
    2. To include an application in the report, select the corresponding check box.

      If many applications are listed, type the first few letters of the application name in the text box to scroll the list. Multiple applications can be selected.

    3. Click OK.
    Status Only deployments with the selected status are shown in the report. The default value is Success or Failure, which means that all deployments are listed.
    Plugin Only deployments that used the selected plug-in are shown in the report. The default value is Any. Note: The Any value also includes deployments that did not use a plug-in.
  3. Click Run to apply your filter conditions to the data and produce the report.

A tabular report and line graph are produced. Each environment that a reporting application used is represented by an individual plot line and table row.
