Run Reports

Report Basics

Space Manager provides Reorganization reports to identify the benefits of reorganizing tables or indexes and to capture historical data on reorganization activity.

Space Manager provides Size and Growth reports for capacity and reorganization planning.

All reports can be viewed, printed, and exported. Space Manager allows you to easily export a report and then email it to colleagues. You can export a report to one of a number of different file formats, including PDF, Excel, or a text file.

Notes:

  • Reports are generated from statistics stored in the Space Manager Repository. To accumulate statistics in the Repository, make sure the Repository is updated on a regular basis.
  • The date that a Repository was last updated is displayed in the Repository Status panel in the Explorer window when a database is selected.
  • To check or modify the update schedule, select Tools | Admin | Change Repository Update Schedule.
Report Description
Reorganization Reports

There are two types of Reorganization reports you can generate.

  • The Predicted Reorganization Benefit report shows you the amount of space you can reclaim if you reorganize a selected table or index.
  • The Reorganization History report shows which tables or indexes were reorganized during the selected time period, which allows you to extrapolate space savings due to reorganization activity. For planning reorganizations in the future, this report provides you with historical information on how much time it took to run reorganizations on specific objects.
