The new upcoming release of opReports 3.4 will work on Opmantek's latest and fastest platform, however, the currently installed products are incompatible with this upgrade. 
To find out more about this upgrade please read: Upgrading Opmantek Applications

...

• The main opReports dashboard was reorganised and now shows the report types sorted and categorised in three (collapsible) sections for greater clarity.
• opReports now offers a new special report type called "Grouped Availability Report".
• A new node and interface selection mechanism was added: you can now select nodes and interfaces by regular expression.
• The Node Health report was reworked to present more useful memory metrics for servers.
  Where present, 'cached' and 'buffer' memory is now taken into account when computing free main memory.
  On servers, swap memory is shown (as a separate column for XLSX and CSV outputs) instead of the much less useful 'Virtual Memory'.
  Coloring by condition class is now more reliable, and the condition and action column ordering in HTML output was corrected.
• The Interface Capacity report layout now offers configurable output formatting of the 95th percentile information.
  You can choose the display options Percent (default), Interface Bandwidth or both.
• All reports (except the Node Report) now support Business Week time filtering.
• The WAN, QoS and CoS reports now honor interface selections correctly.
• Node selection via opCharts Business Service membership now supports both business services consisting of nodes as well as specific nodes' interfaces.
• Various bug fixes and robustness improvements.
  
  

...

• There is a new report type "Class of Service", which presents Juniper-sourced Quality/Class of Service information.
• This version also introduces the new report type "Configuration Summary", which presents an overview of the configuration items, monitored services and elements with alerts and thresholds for  any number of nodes.
• opReports now supports CSV as format for Node, Interface and Type selection files, and logs inconsistencies with this input type better.
• The report scheduler now handles 'impossible' reports more robustly and with fewer unnecessary retries
  (e.g. a daily report where the business week is set to Mon-Fri, which therefore cannot be generated for Sat or Sun)
• The error reporting and logging was improved for greater robustness and clarity.
• Various bug fixes and improvements.

...

• The multiprocessing code was made more robust, and the selftest should no longer report problems about not being able to run "df".
• Node and Group selections in the report generation gui are now sorted.
• Uploading of Node+Interface+Type selection files now works for on-demand reports.
• opReports' timezone handling was greatly extended.
  If you set the config option omkd_display_timezone to your desired timezone, then all times in the opReports GUI will be displayed in that timezone and including the timezone offset.
  You can use any timezone definition from the ISO8601 standard and the Olson database, plus "local" (meaning the timezone configured on the server).
  If this option is not set, the times will be shown in the "local" timezone but without zone offset. If explicitely set to "local", the offset suffix is shown.
• The WAN reports now show interface descriptions with interface names.

...

• A new look and feel: the GUI was completely rebuilt and now behaves like our other modern applications.
• A new, flexible scheduling system: any number of repeated or one-off reports can be specified, each with their own parameters and options.
• A number of new report types, both special-purpose as well as generic ones
• More flexibility: there are new mechanisms for selecting nodes and interfaces, the report titles and the banners are configurable
• A comfortable interactive installer: opReports now uses the Opmantek Installer for installation and upgrades.
• Better archive management: You can now define how long (and where) opReports should keep particular reports (or classes of reports).
• Easier archive access: The opReports GUI now keeps track of all reports (scheduled or on-demand) and provides fast access to them.
• More output formats: reports can now be created in HTML (for both inline as well as standalone viewing), CSV and XLSX - all selectable.
• More self-contained outputs: reports are now saved together with their metadata, which captures all parameters and inputs of a report.
• Better exporting: You can now get a report in ZIP form from the GUI. The GUI also allows you to email that ZIP file to anybody.
• Nicer Emails: reports can be emailed to anybody (automatically on generation), and contain all selected formats as attachments.
• Easier Administration: opReports now has a self-test (for diagnosing common problems) and is much easier to configure than before.
