About changing report properties

Use the Change Report Properties dialog box to change report properties.

If you change a title, the new title appears on the Reports tab and in the Report Type list box when you view Vault reports in the Administration Console.

If you consolidate your reports and also change titles, use the same title for all profiles whose reports are consolidated. The title prints on the reports and appears in the email subject line if you email the reports.

The Change Report Properties dialog box options are as follows:

Report Title

Enter a new title for the report. Click Original Title to reset the title.

Email

Select to email the report and then enter email addresses, separated by commas, semicolons, or spaces, to which to send the report.

If you email reports, ensure that email is set up correctly in NetBackup.

Print Command

Select to print the report and then enter a print command for a printer on the master server on which Vault is installed. Specify the full path to the print command.

Test the print commands from a command line on the server on which Vault is installed to ensure that they work correctly.

On Windows systems, the print server must grant the appropriate access permissions to the individual users of the vault commands, and also to the SYSTEM user in the LocalSystem account on the machine from which the print request originates.

Directory (UNIX systems)

Select to write the report to a directory and then enter the path name of or click Browse to select a directory in which you want the reports saved. The file name of the report includes the session ID, so you can use the same folder for all Vault reports.

By default, Vault reports are saved in each session directory even if you specify a directory for reports.

Folder (Windows systems)

Select to write the report to a folder and then enter a path name of or click Browse to select a folder in which you want the report saved. The file name of the report includes the session ID, so you can use the same folder for all Vault reports.

By default, Vault reports are saved in each session folder even if you specify a folder for reports.

Period

Enter the time period for the report, between x and y days before the date the report is generated. (Recovery Report only.)

If you consolidate reports and generate the Recovery Report, the earliest date range among the consolidated sessions is the end date. The Recovery Report is generated from the current date and time to that end date.
