Objective 2.3: Create monitoring reports and
dashboards

Once you've configured the monitoring of the objects in your organization, you can view the
monitoring data in a variety of ways. Service level tracking allows you to configure perfor-
mance and availability benchmarks as a way of measuring whether the services that you are
monitoring are meeting the availability and performance expectation of the stakeholders
who use them. Reports allow you to generate visual representations of the information gath-
ered by Operations Manager. Dashboards allow you to configure at-a-glance representations
of important information.
