Report results

Report results initially appear in a graphical or list view. The graphical report is an overview of available data for this report displayed in a pie chart or in a bar graph. You can drill down for more detail in the chart or graph by clicking on any of the sections or bars. For example, you can drill down to individual servers that appear in a report and get detailed information about them.

In this section following topics are discussed:

Viewing a graphical report

A graphical report is a pie chart.

Pie Chart

Click on a section of the chart to drill down for more details or to perform an action. You can also click on the “Show all <number> servers” link to display a list of servers.

Viewing a list report

A list report is a tabular display of information. Double-click on a row in the list, such as a server, audit, or policy, for more detail or to perform an action. See the List Report for an example.

Exporting a report

You can export a report to your local file system for use in other applications or to distribute as an attachment in an email. The type of report determines which export file formats are available:

Graphical reports (pie or bar charts) can be exported to .html or .pdf format.
List reports can be exported to .html, .pdf, or .xls format.

When you export a report in the SA Client, the time that you will see marked on the exported report will be the time when the report was exported, not the time when the report was generated.

To export a report:

From the report, click Export to open the Save window.
In the Save in field, enter a location that identifies where you want to save the file to, or select from the drop-down list.
Enter a file name.
Select the file type.
Click Save.

Printing a report

To print a report:

From the report, click Print to open the Print window.
Use the default print options or modify them, and then click OK.

Report results restrictions

The following reports have a limit of 2000 “items” that can be displayed in their results:

Server Permissions By Server
Server Permissions By User
OGFS Permissions By Server
OGFS Permissions By User

In these reports, if the results reach 2000, the report will stop, because depending on the specified search parameters, they can yield thousands of results and slow performance of the SA core.

For example, the Server Report by User will run successfully if you specify 10 users and 200 servers in the search parameters, but will not run if you specify 10 users and 201 servers.

To avoid this problem, either modify your search parameters to yield less results, or break the report query into smaller searches and run as many smaller reports as you need to achieve your results.
