Viewing reports
IMPORTANT:
•
Report schedules with an asterisk (*) before the User Name indicate that they are generated
by a schedule. Following is the naming convention for reports that have an associated schedule:
<resource type>_exportDB-<array serial number>_<Array Serial
Number>_<Report Type>_<Schedule Type>_<Date>_<Time>.html/pdf/rtf
•
If the Email Dest for a report record is blank, it implies one of the following:
◦ The report is not a scheduled report.
◦ The report is scheduled, but an email address is not provided or is invalid.
If the email address is not provided or is invalid, you will not receive any notification
though the report is generated. You need to go to the following location and select the
report you want to view: <Local_drive>:\HPSS\pa\tomcat\webapps\pa\
reports
. All the reports are available in this location. (Local drive on the management
station refers to the C drive, where the Windows operating system is installed, and the
HPSS
folder is also copied to the C drive).
•
If the XP or the P9000 disk array for which you have created a report is violating license, the
following warning message is displayed at the beginning of the report:
WARNING: License violation was detected for this array. This report may not capture
performance data about the recent configuration changes made in the your <XP or P9000>
disk array. Please purchase the required HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor licenses
immediately.
To view a report:

The reports that are saved or scheduled are displayed in the Reports section on the View
Reports screen.

•
If the file format is HTML or CSV, the report is displayed in a new IE browser window.
