Reporting - Overview

Use the IBM Tivoli Storage Resource Manager Reporting facility to view both overview and detailed information about your storage. The over 300 reports available in the Reporting facility are constructed from the statistical information accumulated in the Enterprise Repository.

The reporting features are very powerful, allowing you to select exactly the computers, disks, file systems, storage subsystems, and even users upon which you want to report. You can view reports as tables of data or as graphical charts, which provides you with the flexibility to get a very detailed look at your information or a very high level overview.

There are seven main reporting categories available in the IBM Tivoli Storage Resource Manager function tree:

Asset

Storage Subsystems

Availability

Capacity

Usage

Usage Violations

Backup

Each of the major reporting categories in the Reporting facility can be expanded in the function tree to reveal additional sub-categories of reporting.
