Detailed reports provide historical information about resources such as servers, shares, volumes, folders, files, home directories and users.

The File Storage Analysis category displays a default Category Report in the report pane. For more information on setting the parameters of this report, see Running Category Reports .

You can configure Enterprise Reporter to save your favorite parameter values within each report type. Your favorites can then be loaded when running reports that contain these parameters. For more information, see how To enter a parameter value .
