The baseline GE Digital APM database includes the System Reliability Report, which you can use to view a summary of the results of a System Reliability Analysis.
The following table provides a list and description of the Catalog items that are used to generate the System Reliability Report. Each report provides a formatted view of the supporting query identified in the table. For additional details on the data that is included in the subreport, you can run any of the queries, which are stored in the Catalog folder \\Public\Meridium\Modules\Reliability Manager\Reports.

SystemReliability
System Reliability - Main
Provides the information that is displayed in the Summary and Plots sections of the System Reliability Report.
SystemReliabilitySummaryResultReport
SystemReliability - SummaryResult
Provides the information that is displayed in the Simulation Result Summary section of the System Reliability Report.
SystemReliabilityElementResultReport
SystemReliability - ElementResult
Provides the information that is displayed in the Simulation Results - Elements section of the System Reliability Report.
SystemReliabilityActionResultReport
System Reliability - ActionResult
Provides the information that is displayed in the Simulation Results - Actions section of the System Reliability Report.
SystemReliabilityResourceResultReport
SystemReliability - ResourceResult
Provides the information that is displayed in the Simulation Results - Resources section of the System Reliability Report.
Each report query contains a prompt on the ENTY_KEY field of the System Analysis family. When you run the System Reliability Report while viewing a System Reliability Analysis, the ENTY_KEY of the System Analysis record associated with the current analysis is passed automatically to the prompt, and the results for the current System Analysis will be displayed. If you run one of the reports or queries listed in the table directly from the Catalog, however, you will need to supply the ENTY_KEY of a System Analysis record manually to retrieve results.
Throughout this documentation, we refer to the main report, the subreports, and the supporting queries collectively as the System Reliability Report.
The Analysis Summary section of the System Reliability Report displays general summary information that is stored in the System Analysis record.
The following table lists each item in the Analysis Summary section and the corresponding Systems Analysis record fields whose data is displayed in the report:

The Simulation Result Summary section of the System Reliability Report displays a summary of the information that is displayed in the Elements section in the Simulation Results workspace. Results for each scenario are stored in a System Element Result record. Additional information about each element within a scenario is displayed in the Simulation Results - Elements section of the System Reliability Report.
The following table lists each item in the Simulation Results Summary section and the corresponding System Element Result record field whose data is displayed in the report.

The Plots section of the System Reliability Report displays the graphs that are shown on the Summary section of the Analysis Summary workspace for the selected analysis. The following image shows the Total Cost graph.
The Simulation Results - Elements section of the System Reliability Report displays results for each Scenario and any Subsystems, Assets, Risks, Switches or Buffers that belong to it. This information, which is stored in System Element Result records, also appears in the Elements section in the Simulation Results workspace. The following image shows the Simulation Results - Elements section.
The results for each element are stored in a separate System Element Result record, and one row exists for each record. The following table lists each item in the Simulation Results - Elements section and the corresponding System Element Result record field whose data is displayed in the report.

The Simulation Results - Actions section of the System Reliability Report displays results for the Actions that belong to each Scenario, which are stored in System Action Result records. This is the same information that appears in the Actions section in the Simulation Results workspace. The following image shows the Simulation Results - Actions section.

The Simulation Results - Resources section of the System Reliability Report displays results for each Resource used in the System Reliability Analysis, which are stored in System Resource Result records. This is the same information that appears in the Resources section in the Simulation Results workspace. The following image shows the Simulation Results - Results section.
The results for each element are stored in a separate System Resource Result record, and one row exists for each record. The following table lists each item in the Simulation Results - Resources section and the corresponding System Resources Result record field whose data is displayed in the report.
