# Top (Bottom) Veeam Agents Report

This report aggregates historical performance data for Veeam Agents across a time range and shows top or bottom Veeam Agents for a specific performance counter.

## Description

The report features a predefined list of Veeam Agent performance counters.

::: note

To run the **Top (Bottom) Veeam Agents** report, you must have Veeam Management Pack for Microsoft System Center installed.

:::

## Parameters

Date/time Selection: defines the time period to analyze in the report.

Algorithm: defines whether top or bottom Veeam Agents will be displayed in the report.

Count: defines the number of top or bottom Veeam Agents that will be included in the report. The value can range between 1 and 200.

Group by: defines how data will be grouped in the report (by *Object*, *Counter Instance* or *Object and Counter Instance*).

Scope: defines a list of Groups or Objects to analyze in the report (by default, the **Veeam Agents Group** is selected). The **Add Group** option returns a Group and all objects that a group contains (with all performance counter instances). The **Add Object** option returns only the selected object.

Counter: defines a collection rule for a performance counter to analyze in the report.

## Sample Usage

Report on top 5 Veeam Agents that had the highest CPU usage during this week.

### Instructions

1. Open the Top (Bottom) Veeam Agents report.
2. From the **From** list, select *This Week > Monday*. From the **To** list, select *This Week > Friday.*
3. From the **Algorithm** list, select *Top*.
4. In the **Count** field, enter *5*.
5. From the **Group by** list, select *Object*.
6. Leave the **Scope** section without changes.
7. From the **Counter** list, select *Veeam Agent\\CPU Used %*.
8. Click **Run** to view the report.

### Report Output

The report will show 5 Veeam Agents with the greatest CPU usage level. The chart will display the following details for every Veeam Agent: average CPU usage and the minimum-to-maximum CPU usage range for the selected period. The table will display additional details for every Veeam Agent: name, sample count, minimum, maximum and average CPU usage values and standard deviation.

::: note

If several objects have the same ranking function value, the report will include more objects than you have set in the **Count** field. For example, the “bottom 10” report will show 11 objects if two objects “share” the same position (have the same value).
