# Top Noisy Hyper-V objects

The report analyzes alerting activity and provides information on virtual infrastructure objects that caused the greatest number of alerts across a given time range.

## Description

The Top Noisy Hyper-V objects report is a linked report that is based on the [Veeam Alert Statistics Report](veeam_alert_statistics_report.md) from the Veeam Report Library. The report is limited to the Troublemakers mode, and can provide statistics for only one time interval and predefined object class.

## Parameters

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

Scope: defines a list of Groups or Objects to include in the report (by default, the **Veeam Hyper-V Hosts 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.

Top N Count: defines the maximum number of virtual infrastructure objects to display in the report output. The value can range between 1 and 200.

## Sample Usage

Report on top 10 cluster disks in your virtual infrastructure that caused the greatest number of alerts during this week.

### Instructions

1. Open the Top Noisy Hyper-V objects report. 
2. From the **From** list, select *This Week > Monday* . From the **To** list, select *This Week > Friday* . 
3. In the **Scope** section, include the necessary cluster disks in the report 

   Click **Add Object** . By default, the Filter Options are configured to include only Hyper-V infrastructure objects. In the **Add Object** window, click **Options** . In the **Options** window, click **Add** . In the **Class Name** search box, enter *cluster disk* and click **Search** . Select the *Hyper-V Cluster Disk (Veeam MP)* class in the list of search results, click **Add** and click **OK** . In the **Options** windows, click **OK** to apply the filter. In the **Add Object** window, click **Search** . The search will return a list of objects that belong to the *Hyper-V Cluster Disk (Veeam MP)* class. Select the necessary disks in the list, click **Add** and click **OK** .

4. In the **Top N Count** field, enter *10* . 
5. Click **Run** to view the report. 

**Report Output**

The report will show statistics for top 10 Hyper-V cluster disks alerts activity:
