Summary

In this chapter, we covered how to build reports around logical business structures, and how to provide stakeholders the business-oriented information they need. We accomplished this by using vRealize Operations tags, application groups, and custom groups. We also looked at how super metrics tie to custom groups, and how these can be used in dashboards and reports.

In the next chapter, we will cover super metrics in more detail.
