Hi,

Hi,

Creating batch reports

To create a batch report follow this procedure:

Expand IBM TotalStorage Productivity Center → My Reports.

Right-click the Batch Reports node and select Create Batch Report.

Note: If the batch report you want to create is similar to an existing one, click the name of the existing report, edit it and save it using a different name.

Click the Report tab and select the type of report you want to create and move it from Available to Current Selections by clicking . See Selecting batch report options for details of the tab contents.

Click the Selection tab and refine the criteria for selecting and displaying report data. Some options might not be available for all reports.

Select a profile for controlling which data is collected. This option is not available for all reports. See Using profiles for information about profiles.

Click Selection to specify the resources (for example, computers) that will be displayed in the report. This option is not available for all reports. For details about selecting resources, see Selecting resources to appear on a report.

Click Filters to apply filters the data that you want to display (for example, show only the machines that contain over 80% used space). For details about applying filters, see Filtering the resources that appear on a report.
