Availability SLA Report
Do you wish to monitor your Availability SLAs on a persistent manner?
Our availability SLA report helps IT teams to proactively monitor their service performance and ensure the levels of availability is strictly adhered to. The report validates the availability trend of a specific monitor over a set period of time and then provides deep insight into the monitor performance through detailed graphical trends.
Availability SLA Report captures the real time status and performance trends of all the configured monitors over a specified time. The following details and parameters can be extracted from the availability SLA dashboard:
- Monitor Name: Name of the configured monitor.
- SLA Name: This highlights the name that uniquely identifies the SLA.
- Group Name: It shows all the associated monitor group names to which the monitor is associated to.
- Goal (%): Defines the monitor's SLA goal value in percentage.
- Achieved (%): Describes the monitor's achieved SLA value in percentage.
- Status: Shows whether the monitor has achieved its SLA Goals or not. It is identified as Success or Failure.

Interpret the Availability SLA Report:
Availability SLA Report provides comprehensive insight into the availability trends of the monitor for the selected period of time.
The following details can be inferred from the report:
- SLA Name: The Specified name that uniquely identifies the SLA.
- SLA Period: It determines the selected time period, where the terms of SLA have to be met regarding the service delivery. It is either selected as monthly, quarterly or yearly SLA.
- Operating Period: The time period during when the SLA is measured and monitored.
- Business Hours: Describes the time period defined as the most critical to your business and configured while setting up your SLA. The availability SLA will then be applicable for the time frame defined within the Business Hour. This time period will be shown None, if no specific business time is configured.
For example, assume you have defined a business hour named 'Friday' as between 08:00 to 20:00 hours. This timeframe is applicable every Friday. Now if you specify this business hour while creating new availability SLA, it means the SLA will be applicable from 08:00 to 20:00 hours on Fridays. - Total Downtime: The cumulative downtime data recorded during the operating period.
- SLA Goal: To meet the SLA, availability is normally set as equal to, greater than, greater than equal to, less than or less than or equal to a percentage value. By default, it is 99.0 percentage.
- SLA Achieved: Describes the monitor's achieved SLA value in percentage. The status of SLA is defined as Success or Failed.
Graphical Interpretation
The Availability SLA History graph depicts the percentage of SLA achieved by the monitor, for a specified unit of time during the selected operating period. The average SLA achieved by the monitor can be deducted from this graphical data. Legends are provided below the graph to help decode the trends.
