SRM reports provide a sleek, versatile, and easy-to-use reporting framework that enables you to easily and effectively choose, view, and analyze vital data. Customized reporting is available through the selection of filter criteria (e.g., individual columns, specific clients, specific client computer groups, etc.) and filters as described in SRM Reports.
From the CommCell Console, the SRM Report Manager provides these types of reports:
Initial templates are provided for each type (e.g., Cost History by Application, Capacity by File System, etc.) where columns have been preselected. The only requirement before generating and displaying the report is to specify one or more client computers. For most reports, a data collection job must also have been run prior to generating the report.
You must use a Windows MediaAgent to collect file level analytics. You cannot use a Unix MediaAgent to collect file level analytics. |
Reports can be used as initial templates or customized by adding or removing columns in the templates or specifying additional Filter Criteria.
The table below lists the available report templates and the categories and columns that can be selected to configure a customized report. The table also shows the job types that are supported by each report.
