Creating Reports
You can create an activity report using the Create New Report wizard by selecting Performance
& Reports in the Manager Pane. When this wizard is invoked from the Performance & Reports
Manager, by default no tree node is selected. You must select a node in order to proceed. When
the wizard is invoked from a panel, the corresponding node is preselected. For example, if the
wizard is invoked from the CPG table panel, the CPG tree node is preselected. If it is invoked from
the AO configurations table panel, the AO configuration tree node is preselected
To create a performance report for Remote Copy Links or Remote Copy Virtual Volumes, you must
create a custom chart. For more information on creating charts, see “Creating a New Chart”
(page 364).
