Use the controls in the menu to select the desired report parameters and then click Generate Report.
See
for a listing of the controls that are available for each report and then
consult the relevant sections later in this chapter for complete details.
CAUTION:
Filtering large numbers of objects may exceed the limit for your server, in which case
you should reduce the number of objects being filtered and try again.
Once the report is generated, query results appear in one or more charts and/or tables in a new
window (or tab) of the browser (
). The top of the report includes a section that
describes the various selection parameters used to generate the report.
NOTE:
Internet Explorer has a URL length limit of 2048 characters. The Firefox browser has a
65,536-character limit. Apache produces a "413 Entity Too Large" error after 4000 characters.
To avoid this type of error, break the query into a smaller size (especially for PD/LD reports).
NOTE:
All the data that is shown in the results pane can be downloaded as a CSV format
document (has a .csv extension) by clicking on a document icon that appears next to the main
heading. If your browser is configured to open .csv files in a spreadsheet program such as
Microsoft Excel this is a very convenient way of importing data into a spreadsheet.
NOTE:
The Performance Metric is displayed by the reporting graph or chart that uses the formula
(v2-v1)/(t2-t1) to average out the discrete nature of the sampled value.
Where t1, t2 are the time intervals and v1, v2 are the values during those intervals.
