8.3 About Reports and Options
There are five categories of reports that you can generate using System Reporter:
■ summary reports (see Summary Report on page 8.45)
■ space reports (see Space Reports on page 8.45)
■ performance reports (see Performance Reports on page 8.47)
■ adaptive optimization reports (see Adaptive Optimization Reports on page 8.55)
■ objects present reports (see Objects Present Reports on page 8.61)
Reports are generated by sending a Web query to the System Reporter database. Each query
must specify a report type from one of the three categories listed above. These report types
are discussed in further detail in Report Types on page 8.44.
Each report type also has options that you can use to customize the report results. Not all
options can be used with all report types. Refer to Options Available by Report on page 8.56 to
learn which options are compatible with which report types.
