... Insight reports include six types of monitoring Alerts reports; Table, Totals Chart, and Top Alarms by Host Group, Host, Host/Service, and by Service reports. We've generated the _Table_ and _Totals Chart_ as an example and have listed a description of each of the reports below.
* *Table and Totals Chart* \- The Table reporting option displays managed element totals (Host Groups, Host, Host-Services), and Alarm, Warning, and Notification totals, based on the selected reporting interval. Detail data is also available to chart by selecting the Detail Level option. Managed Host Groups, Hosts, and Host/Services represent the number of elements that are being monitored and is an indicator of the size of the infrastructure. For Hosts and Host Groups, alarms are defined as Host checks that result in a hard down status. For Hosts/Service and Service elements, alarms are defined as Service checks that result in a hard critical status. Host Group measurements are computed by aggregating counts for all Hosts in the Host Group. The Totals Chart displays Alarm, Warning, and Notification totals for the specified reporting period. A chart is generated showing a bar for each interval and measurement. If the number of interval samples is larger than can be supported by a bar chart, a line chart will be generated instead.
* *Top Alarms by Host Group* \- This reporting option lists the top Host Groups in descending alarm count order. Host Groups for example may be organized and named by Tech Groups such as Windows and UNIX; or Org Groups such as Operations and Help Desk; or Geographical such as SF or NY sites. A Trend Chart graphically displays the Host Group's number of alarms for the specified reporting date range. For each interval, a stacked bar shows each Host Group's share of alarms. The color of each bar corresponds to the color in the ranked list.
* *Top Alarms by Host* \- This reporting option lists the top Hosts in descending alarm count order. Hosts for example may be organized and named by Physical Device such as Server and Router; or Virtual Entity such as Application. A Trend Chart graphically displays the Host's number of alarms for the specified reporting date range. For each interval, a stacked bar shows each Host's share of alarms. The color of each bar corresponds to the color in the ranked list.
* *Top Alarms by Host/Service* \- This reporting option lists the top Host/Service in descending alarm count order. Host/Service is a Host and its detailed Services. A Trend Chart graphically displays the Host/Service's number of alarms for the specified reporting date range. For each interval, a stacked bar shows each Host/Service's share of alarms. The color of each bar corresponds to the color in the ranked list.
* *Top Alarms by Service* \- This reporting option lists the top Services in descending alarm count order. A Service is independent of a Host and is grouped by protocol or monitor type. A Trend Chart graphically displays the Service's number of alarms for the specified reporting date range. For each interval, a stacked bar shows each Service's share of alarms. The color of each bar corresponds to the color in the ranked list.

For Hosts and Host Groups, alarms are defined as Host checks that result in a hard down status. For Hosts/Service and Service elements, alarms are defined as Service checks that result in a hard critical status. Host Group measurements are computed by aggregating counts for all Hosts in the Host Group. The Totals Chart reporting option displays Alarm, Warning, and Notification totals for the specified reporting period. A chart is generated showing a bar for each interval and measurement. If the number of interval samples is larger than can be supported by a bar chart, a line chart will be generated instead.

The color of each bar corresponds to the color in the ranked list.
* *Top Notifications by Host (Host and Service Notifications)* \- This reporting option lists the top Hosts with the most Host and Service Notifications in descending Notification count order. Hosts, for example, may be organized and named by Physical Device such as Server and Router; or Virtual Entity, such as Application. A Trend Chart graphically displays the Host's number of Host and Service Notifications for the specified reporting date range. For each interval, a stacked bar shows each Host's share of Notifications. The color of each bar corresponds to the color in the ranked list.
