"Simple" Health Dashboard -- Logic Question

$

Hi all,I'm looking to build out a dashboard that will take in a dynamic list of instances and applications. At a high level, I'm looking to have a handful of metrics (CPU, memory, etc) to give a very high level look at the health of SQL Servers for a given application.My challenge is that subreports cannot pass values back to the "parent".At the moment, I have a tablix with App | Instance Name | <Subreport that takes the instance name as a parameter from the details of the tablix; returns health state>This seems to work out for that level of detail, but I'm interested in going a layer higher and rolling up the health status for all instances of a particular app, and I cannot seem to figure out logic as to where i can potentially replace the subreport and use another method to get the health state to roll up.My preference is not to use an SSIS package and store the data, as we simply want to leverage this dashboard for purely real-time "how do I look at the moment?" reporting.Obviously, there are other tools out there that would accomplish this, but I was trying to see if there was a way to accomplish this in SSRS.Thanks in advance!Sample mock up:App 1 | HealthyApp 2 | HealthyUnderneath App 1:Instance 1 | HealthyInstance 2 | Healthy
