Configuring Reports Using the Data Protector GUI

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.

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.

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.
