Report templates
You can use Performance Monitor to create report templates for customized reports or graphs. See
the following sections for information on creating report templates and generating reports or
graphs from existing templates:
• “Creating a Performance Monitor report or graph template” on page 122
• “Generating reports and graphs from templates” on page 125
The Performance Monitor feature has a set of six templates that are useful if you need to generate
an ongoing report without a specified time interval. Table 11 on page 113 lists the default
templates.
Creating a Performance Monitor report or graph template
