Configuring Reports Using the Data Protector
GUI
This section describes how to configure Data Protector reports using the
Data Protector GUI.
NOTE To display the input parameters (selections) in the output of a report,
select the Show selection criteria in report option in the Report
Wizard. The Show selection criteria in report is not available for
the reports that have no required or optional input parameters
(selections). The output of the report displays only required parameters
and optional parameters with the changed default values.
Configuring Report Groups and Adding Reports
Report Groups You can start Data Protector reports individually (interactively) or you
can group them into report groups and then start the report group. You
can add individual reports to an already configured report group.
Using the Data Protector GUI, a report group allows you to:
• Start all the reports at once (interactively).
• Schedule the group to start the reports at a specified time.
• Start the group when triggered by a notification.
Examples These are some examples of the use of reports:
• A backup operator wants to receive an email with the status of the
backup performed on the previous night.
• Administrators of specific departments want to receive a broadcast
message with information on the backup of the systems they are
responsible for.
• A full report with tab delimited data is posted as a log file and is used
by an application that records backup statistics.
