Getting Started with Reports

The following steps are required to generate a report:

1.Collect the data: Specify the devices for which HP Web Jetadmin collects data. The data collection process causes network traffic and requires database space, so you must enable data collection when you want a report. You can specify which reports HP Web Jetadmin generates based on the type of data collection you select.

2.Generate the report: Specify the following options:

●The type of report to generate. The type of data collection specified in step 1 determines which reports HP Web Jetadmin can generate.

●The device group or individual devices to include in the report, which might be all of the devices or a subset of the devices specified in step 1.

NOTE: You can only select devices for which data has been collected.

●The time frame for the data to be included in the report. This must be done each time you want the report to run.

Data Collection

●Data Collection Cycle

●Initial Data Collection

Data collections are groups of devices that have specific collection types enabled. You can apply a data collection type such as Device Utilization to a single device, to multiple devices, or to a device group. When a data collection is first applied to a device or devices, HP Web Jetadmin launches a data collection immediately establishing a data baseline. Once the device is populated under a specific data collection type, data collections occur at some interval or by way of some trigger.
