The SharePoint Hierarchy Report lets you view and print the hierarchy of Web applications,site collections, sitesand optionally, listswithin a SharePoint farm. You can generate this report for the entire farm or for selected objects within the Hierarchy.
Information in this report is current as of the last Discovery.
EXCEPTION: If you ran the report at the site level and Include Children is checked, the report will be run on real-time data.
In a multi-farm environment, this analysis can only be run on the home farm.
To generate a SharePoint Hierarchy Report:
1Select the object(s) that you want to include in the report.
2Choose Configuration > SharePoint Hierarchy.
3Specify one or more parameters for your analysis:
If you want results to ... |
Then ... |
---|---|
include lists and libraries within sites |
check the Include Lists box. NOTE: If you check this box, ControlPoint must iterate through all lists. Depending on the scope of your analysis and the number of lists within that scope, processing time may increase noticeably. |
include folders and items within sites |
check the Include Folders and Items box. NOTE: If you check this box, ControlPoint must iterate through all list items. Depending on the scope of your analysis and the number of items within that scope, processing time may increase noticeably.
|
display the url for each site collection and site to the right of each site name |
check the Display URLs box. NOTE: If you leave this box unchecked, only the names of the site collections and sites will display. |
include objects whose permissions are unique (not inherited) |
check the Unique permissions only box. NOTE: If you check this box, objects will be shown within the context of the hierarchy, even if the parent object has inherited permissions. |
Now you can:
·run the operation immediately (by clicking the [Run Now] button)
OR
·schedule the operation to run at a later time or on a recurring basis.
OR
·save the operation as XML Instructions that can be run at a later time.
.
The top level displays all Web applications within the scope of your analysis.
When expanded:
·the name of the object and its Type (site collection, site, list, item, and so on) displays
NOTE: If you chose to Display URLs, the url for each site collection and site displays in parentheses to the right of its name.
·a plus sign (+) identifies each object whose permissions are unique (that is, not inherited from the parent objects).
For a single farm, Web application, or site collection, you can analyze trends over a specified time period in:
·activity
·site count, and/or
·storage.
To generate a Trends analysis:
1Select the object for which you want to analyze trends.
NOTE: You can only analyze trends for one object (farm, Web application, or site collection) at a time. If you multi-select, only the object on which you right-clicked will apply.
2Use the information in the following table to determine the appropriate action to take.
If you want to analyze trends in ... |
Choose ... |
activity |
Activity > Trend Analysis for Activity. |
site count |
Content > Trend Analysis for Site Count. |
storage |
Storage > Trend Analysis for Storage. |
3Specify the following parameters for your analysis:
a)Enter or select a Start Date and End Date for your analysis.
The date range you select determines the time intervals captured in the analysis, as described in the following table.
If the time period you specified is ... |
Then the Trend Analysis will be reported ... |
up to 60 days |
by Day |
between 61 and 364 days |
by Week |
365 days or greater |
by Month. |
b)If you want to change the Statistics to Graph, select a different value from the drop-down.
c)If you want your graph to include a line that smooths out short-term fluctuations, check the Include moving Average box.
The default value for Moving average period (days) is 7, which represents the number of days within a given week. This value is useful for many business users who can expect less activity, for example, on the weekend. You can, however, change this value to measure moving average for a different time period. For example, if you generally experience week-to-week fluctuations over the course of a month, you may choose to set the Moving average period to 31.
Now you can:
·run the operation immediately (by clicking the [Run Now] button)
OR
·schedule the operation to run at a later time or on a recurring basis.
OR
·save the operation as XML Instructions that can be run at a later time.
Trend Analysis results consist of two graphs:
·The Trend Analysis bar graph includes the statistics for the selected criterion. (Note that if you selected ALL from the Statistics to graph drop-down, a separate graph will be included for each). Below are examples of Trend Analyses by Day reports (including a 7-day moving average) for Activity, Storage, and Site Count over the same 28-day time period.
Activity Trend Analysis
Storage Trend Analysis
Site Count Trend Analysis
·The second graph is a line graph that shows statistics for all three options (activity, storage, and site count) in terms of a percentage over the course of the selected time period. Note that the maximum value (100%) represents the most storage used, greatest level of activity, and largest site count over the selected time period.
