About Reporter

Reporter provides a variety of detailed reports, such as dependency, event, and utilization reports

for discovered elements. To view a report, click a report name in the tree in Reporter. The selected

report appears in the right pane.

IMPORTANT:

If the message The report does not contain any data is displayed, verify

that the collector for the report is running. You may also want to verify that a collector is running if

you believe the report is not displaying the latest information. Since data collectors gather the

information for reports, if the collector is not running, its reports are not updated. See ”

Managing

Collectors for Reports

” on page 203.

Available Reports

The management server provides reports that display performance information in a variety of

formats:

HTML (Default) - The software displays the report in a Web page by default.

PDF - The software displays the report in Adobe Acrobat, a good option if you need to print the

report. The software assumes you already have Adobe Acrobat Reader installed on your

computer. To obtain a copy of Adobe Acrobat Reader, go to
