Configuring Reports Using the Data Protector GUI

Chapter 7

336

Administrators can configure a report group and add a separate report
for each of the requirements. They can schedule the report group to be
executed early enough in the morning, so that all recipients receive the
reports before coming to work.

NOTE

The Mount Request Report and Device Error Report can only be used in
a report group and are not available as interactive reports.

To configure a report group, do the following:

1. In the

Data Protector Manager

, switch to the

Reporting

context.

2. Click the

Objects

tab below the Scoping Pane to switch to the Objects

view.

3. Right-click

Reports

and then select

Add Report Group

. The

Add

Report Group

wizard appears.

Follow the wizard. You will go through the following steps:

a. Name the report group.

b. Optionally schedule when the group should be started. For more

information on how to use the Scheduler, see “Scheduling
Unattended Backups” on page 207.

c. Choose and configure a report for the group. For each report, you

must configure a format used to deliver a report, recipients for
each report, and a send method. See “Report Formats” on page 329
for more information on report formats. See “Data Protector
Notifications” on page 342
for more information on various send
methods.

IMPORTANT

When sending an HTML report on a Windows Cell Manager using the
email send method, how the report is displayed will depend on the email
client used to open it. Many email clients will display the report as plain
ASCII text. To ensure the report displays correctly as HTML, open it in a
Web browser.
