11 Performing Report Operations

This chapter describes the different types of Device Manager reports that you can run:

Overview of Device Manager Reports (see section

11-1

)

Physical configuration of storage subsystem (see section

11-2

)

Storage utilization by host (see section

11-3

)

Storage utilization by logical group (see section

11-4

)

Users and permissions (not available to guest users) (see section

11-5

)

11-1 Overview of Device Manager Reports

Device Manager allows system users to generate several reports. Local users cannot generate reports.

To access the reports, select the Reports object in the Device Manager navigation frame (see

Figure 11-1

).

The List Objects -Reports subwindow in the information frame lists and provides access to the Device Manager
reports. The reports are available in HTML format or comma-separated value (CSV) format which can be used
in a spreadsheet program such as Microsoft

®

Excel.

NOTE:

Regarding Unicode (UTF-8) for CSV reports: Device Manager uses the Unicode (UTF-8) code

system to output reports in CSV format. If the output CSV file contains Japanese characters and is imported
to a spreadsheet program that does not support Unicode (UTF-8), the displayed information may contain
code system errors. In such a case, open the file with a program that supports Unicode (UTF-8), such as
Windows

®

Notepad, and then convert it to the appropriate character code system.

NOTE:

If you repeat CSV output for the report facility, the font size on the Web browser may change. This

has no adverse effect on the program, and you can continue operations.

11-2 Physical Configuration of the Storage Subsystem Report

The Physical Configuration of Storage Subsystem report displays and provides detailed information on the
physical configuration of each storage subsystem added to the Device Manager server. The HTML report (see

Figure 11-2

) shows a graphic representation of the storage subsystem’s configuration and components. The

CSV report (see

Figure 11-3

) provides the detailed storage subsystem information as comma-separated

values.
