Defining a report template

A report template defines the metrics whose values you want to include in your reports. Each template has a name that you can define. You can save the report in a single XML file, and later reload a set of report templates that can be used repeatedly. You define reports from the Reports view.

1. Click the Reports view.
2. Click New to create a report.
3. Enter a name for the report, then click OK.
4. Highlight the created report, and then click Edit. Alternatively, double-click the name of the report name.
5. Highlight the Event, Meter, or Accumulator that you want to report.
6. Complete one of the following actions:
   • To add only a specific metric, click Add to Template
   • To add a specific metric, and any subordinate metrics, click Add with children
   • You can also use the Add with children button when an Event Class (such as “CPU”) or a Listener name is selected in the tree.
7. Repeat the previous steps until all of the metrics are added.
8. Save the template.
