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 Num-
ber>_<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\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 fol-
lowing 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 P9000 Performance Advisor licenses immediately.
To view a report:
1. Click Reports > View Reports in the left pane.
The reports that are saved or scheduled are displayed in the Reports section on the View Reports
screen.
2. Select the check box for the report you want to view. If you want to view multiple reports, select
the check boxes for the corresponding report records.
3. Click View.
P9000 Performance Advisor displays an informational message on the number of reports that
are selected and prompts you to confirm if it can proceed, and display the reports data.
4. Click OK to confirm.
The reports are displayed based on the selected file type.
• If the file format is HTML or CSV, the report is displayed in a new IE browser window. You
can save a copy of the report by clicking File > Save or File > Save As on the browser menu.
• If the file format is PDF or RTF, you are prompted to either open and view the report, or save
the report by downloading it to your local system. Based on your requirement, click Open or
Save, or click Cancel to cancel the request.
Click Cancel if you do not want to view the selected reports.
