How to verify the command line options for Altair Monitor report generation?
Problems:
- There are quite a few command line options for Monitor batch reporting and often time users are not sure the exact options to use to generate the desired reports.
- The batch reporting command line options may be changed with new releases, and this may break the existing report generation scripts.
Resolutions:
When in doubt, run a batch report with Web UI and select HTML report format which will include the exact command line options.
Steps:
- Go to History > Batch Reporting tab.
- Select the time range, tag (/features), report type.
Be sure to select “HTML” output format.
- Once the report is generated, you should see the exact command “ftlm_batch_report” with all options listed at the top of the report.
- Users may run “ftlm_batch_report -h” and reference the exact command line options produced by the Web UI batch report to create the desired scripts to generate reports. (eg. change the time-range, change output format to CSV, ... etc.)
