Automate Audit snapshot. Specifically PVU_Subcapacity. Preferrably local save of the attachment.

  • 1.  Automate Audit snapshot. Specifically PVU_Subcapacity. Preferrably local save of the attachment.

    Posted Thu January 11, 2024 03:12 PM

    Hi! We are running ILMT Version: 9.2.34.0-20231205-1816 and have an integration against another software which requires the PVU-subcapacity.csv found in the audit snapshot file on a weekly basis.'

    I know this is not the intended use for the audit snapshot. But i would like to automatically collect this to the server running ILMT preferably on a local save. It seems scheduled exports only are avalible for email distribution and even then, not for the audit file. I've tinkered a bit and tried to recreate a custom report to match the PVU-subcapacity file (all metrics) but cannot seem to manage to get the same info in the file.
    Is there a way to automatically generate this, preferably on the local machines file system.
    Best Regards Erik.

    Hi,

    If you are looking to automate generation of the full audit snapshot, this is not an available feature in ILMT.

    There is an Idea with the status "for future consideration" for scheduled creation of audit snapshot, which you can add your vote or comment to in the Aha! idea portal:

    Thank you.
