Cisco Resource Pool Manager Server (Cisco RPMS) reports record data for network dial service analysis and troubleshooting. Multiple types of reports can be generated for different purposes and displayed on screen, saved to disk in the .CSV format, or printed.
Reports can include configuration settings, current activity, and counters that record historical data.
This chapter describes:
To view a report, follow these steps:
Step 1 Select Reports. The Reports page appears.
Step 2 Locate the report that you want to view and click its Run Report button.
For information on the reports that can be viewed, see the "Types of Reports" section.
Step 3 To save the report as a .CSV file, click Save Report.
The report is generated and saved in /report/history of the Cisco RPMS directory. To view the report, open it with an application that accepts the .CSV format (for example, Microsoft Excel).
To edit the layout of a report, follow these steps:
Step 1 Select Reports, locate the report that you want to edit, and click its Edit Report button. The Edit Report Layout page appears.
Step 2 To show or hide a field, select or deselect its check box.
Step 3 To rearrange the list, select from the following:
Step 4 When generating reports, Cisco RPMS uses the first field as the primary sorting mechanism, the second field as the secondary sorting mechanism, and the third field as the tertiary sorting mechanism.
To specify whether these fields are sorted in ascending or descending order, select their corresponding Ascending or Descending button.
For example, to configure a call report to first show the sessions from newest to oldest, then longest to shortest, and finally the call count from smallest to largest, do the following:
Step 5 When you are finished, click Save Report Layout.
The report layout is saved.
