Report to see all computers with Specific Action Result

Reporting

Hello, I’m still somewhat new to BigFix, especially the reporting piece.

Trying to see if I can generate a report that will show a list of all Computers that are giving a specific action result. Specifically I’m wanting to generate a list of PCs that have given action status result of ‘Disk Limited’.

This seems simple, but I’m having trouble composing it.

Something like this should get you started.

Use the Custom tap under Explore Data in Web Reports:

<?relevance
(id of action of it, name of computer of it, detailed statuses of it) of results of bes actions
?>

This returns the action id, the computer name, and it’s action status.

You can then put in a whose it statement to filter on a specific action ID and to filter on a specific detailed status.

@strawgate has the right Session Relevance statement.
@timjanderson your specific BES Action Status filter might look like this:

<?relevance
(id of action of it, name of computer of it, detailed statuses of it) 
of results whose (status of it = bes action status disk limited)
of bes actions
?>

Here is the link to the BES Action Status list:
List of BES Action Status

Ouch, I notice the “disk limited” status is not in there.
I usually just use my Session Relevance Tester “Inspector Reference” tab, which generates the list dynamically using the introspection capability of Relevance.

Thanks. Seems like I have a ways to go to understand relevance expressions.

How do I limit this to only open actions?

Should be like this:

<?relevance
(id of action of it, name of computer of it, detailed statuses of it) 
of results whose (status of it = bes action status disk limited) 
of bes actions whose (state of it = "Open")
?>

Is there a way to add relay server on this report? Thanks
