Configuring the reporting utility

This section includes the following sections:

About reporting utility

The NetVault reporting utility provides a selection of canned reports that can be generated and viewed in HTML, text, and Comma Separated Value (CSV) formats. For more information about reports, see Reporting in NetVault.

NetVault uses the Statistics Manager (nvstatsmngr) and Reports Database Manager (nvrepdbmngr) processes to gather and transmit data for the canned reports:

Statistics Manager: This process runs on the NetVault Server and Client machines. The Statistics Manager collects drive statistics, event history, media requests, server capacity, and transfer information.
Reports Database Manager: This process runs only on the NetVault Server. The Reports Database Manager polls the Statistics Manager at regular intervals to retrieve the collected data, and writes the data to the Reports Database. It provides the information in the reports database to the reporting utility and performs periodic purging of the reports database.

You can customize the report templates and change the default settings for the Statistics Manager and Reports Database Manager from the NetVault WebUI.

Customizing CSV report templates

NetVault uses built-in templates to format the output for CSV reports. You can customize these templates to define custom delimiters or add line breaks, tabs, or separators. The formatting styles are applied globally to all CSV report templates. Only users familiar with the use of control characters and escape sequences in CSV output should configure these settings. Improper configuration can cause NetVault to produce incorrect output.

2
Under User Interface, click Reporting. In the Reporting dialog box, under CSV Output, configure the following settings:
Use the Default text to output for a CSV report with no records field to change the default text “Nothing to display” with any custom text.
