Associating a business hour profile with a device using the Device Manager
After you have created a business hour profile, you can manually associate/unassociate the profile with one or more devices, as described in the following procedure. Alternately, you can edit the business hour profile.
To manually associate business hour profiles with devices
1. Choose Configure > Device Manager.
The Business Hours Profile column lists the associated business hour profile for each device.
2. Select the device(s) to associate/unassociate with a business hour profile, and then click the actions menu.
A device can only have one assigned business hour profile at a time.
3. Choose General > Edit. The Edit Device wizard appears.
4. Select the Metrics/Alerts tab.
5. In the Business Hours Settings frame, select the Business Hours Profile you want to apply the device(s) from the pull-down menu.
If a Business Hours profile is associated with a device, then metric roll-up will begin to perform business hours-based and non-business hours-based roll-up. Metric roll-up continues to perform the existing “All Hours” metric roll-up. The time-zone of the device together with the business hours profile are used to determine what hours are used to perform the business hours-based and non-business-hours based roll-up.
6. When you are satisfied with your selection, click Submit.
With the addition of Business Hours, you have another option when configuring a Performance Summary report.
