Operations 45
• View SmartSSD Wear Gauge Report
• Save SmartSSD Wear Gauge Report
For the view tasks, HP SSA generates and displays the report or log. For the save tasks, HP SSA generates
a report without the graphical display.
For either task, you can save the report. In online and offline environments, HP SSA saves the diagnostic
report to a compressed folder, which contains an XML report, a plain text report, and a viewer file so you can
display and navigate the report through a web browser.
Each HP SSA Diagnostics report contains a consolidated view of any error or warning conditions
encountered. It also provides detailed information for every storage device, including the following:
• Device status
• Configuration flags
• Firmware version numbers
• Physical drive error logs
HP SSA Diagnostics never collects information about the data content of logical drives. The diagnostic report
does not collect or include the following:
• File system types, contents, or status
• Partition types, sizes, or layout
• Software RAID information
• Operating system device names or mount points
