in a customer situation , we use export and the reports package with
INgres tools , VIgraph to have the detail
of traffic utilization and error rates of fddi and ethernet lines of snmp CISCO
routers ( no decnet need )
the 132 col. report works ok but we have problems making graphic reports
working ( note 4511 ); about those graph , looking at the vigraph doc, you
can modify the scripts furnished by mcc 1.2.3 to have graph fot vt340 or other
printers than ln03 ;
it's quite easy to use ; the only thing i have not explored is the
way to automate the making of the reports ; as im'not a cshell guru , i guess
it's possible to produce reports every day and having them mailed to the network
manager account ;

Having reports automatically generated is one of the things that is currently
on the next phase 'wish list'.
The other 'wish' is to make future modifications to the reports much easier for
future programmers. I don't know if you realize this, but at the moment there are
nearly 300 files associated to the reports package. This seems silly because reports
aren't too difficult. The need for so many files stems from the original development
of the package. On Ultrix there are shell scripts and on VMS there are command files.
And both access different databases. The 'wish' is to consolidate all of these
routines into one tidy package.
