While I don't have nearly the level of sites that you do, we have quite a few devices that we monitor in multiple sites. I was looking for a method to compare a devices availability to itself over months (as well as relate to the other devices), but couldn't find a way to do it without manually compiling the information. So I spent a little time examining the format of the ST*.tab files and decided to import them into an SQL database for better post processing.
In a nutshell, I have a script that imports the values of the ST files into an SQL table. I then can use a web page & SQL query to determine the availability of the systems over months. I've attached an example of my reports page. If this is kinda what your looking for, let me know and I'll forward over the code for the import & ASP reporting. -jb Jason M.

Don't know how many people are on this discussion forum, but we use WhatsUp to monitor our remote links (Around 120). We also use e-mail to SMS alerts for system down messages, so all in all content with WhatsUp. So question on reporting: I am after a report to give to management once a month with the following information: Availability of link to SiteA 98% Availability of link to SiteB 23% Availability of ServerX 98% Very simple, but having run all the default reports can't see anything that gives the above information in that type of summary view.
