Editing the Schedule for a Report

You can edit the schedule for a report, if the report has not been generated yet, through the Reports - Scheduled Reports task module.

NOTE: If you schedule a task (for example, a discovery or a configuration or others) using a corresponding template, the task uses the settings defined in the template at the time the task starts. This makes it easy to redefine settings used in a regularly scheduled task without having to delete and create a scheduled task.

NOTE: All schedules use the date and time on the server where HP Web Jetadmin is installed. The client used to access HP Web Jetadmin might not be in the same time zone as the server where HP Web Jetadmin is installed. You should be aware of the potential for time and date differences when configuring schedules.

NOTE: Scheduled tasks are displayed in the Scheduled Tasks task module on the Device, Discovery, Configuration, Firmware, Reports, Storage, Solutions, and Application Management pages. You can also display any task module on the Overview page.

Email Reports

You can request that a report be emailed in HTML format if desired. The Configure the SMTP Settings on page 41 server must be configured before a report can be emailed.

Save Archived Reports

You can request that a report be saved as an HTML document anywhere on your network. When you select Save As, you can type the filename and location or browse for the location. The report will automatically be saved in HTML format.

You can request that a report be exported in comma-separated value (CSV) file format. CSV is a file type that stores tabular data (like in an Excel sheet) and is common on all computer platforms. CSV is one implementation of a delimited text file, which uses a comma to separate values. However, CSV differs from other delimiter separated file formats in using a " (double quote) character around fields that contain reserved characters (such as commas or newlines). Most other delimiter formats either use an escape character such as a backslash, or have no support for reserved characters. In computer science terms, this type of format is called a flat file because only one table can be stored in a CSV file. Most systems use a series
