Andrew,  One thing that I would recommend in ViPR SRM is to create a report pack within which you do all your custom development--you can copy the standard SRM reports into this report pack and modify them without concern of modifying up the original reports.  I'll try to cover both the report pack creation and copying the report for you here. To do these things:  1) Go into Administration mode and select 'List / Import ReportPacks'. 2) Click 'New ReportPack' and name it accordingly and save. 3) Go into edit that new report pack and create a template within it by pressing the 'New Template' button. 4) For the new template I just name it and press the button to hook it to another node and select 'inside the node , under the root node' from the drop down.  Save the template. 5) Return to the normal user interface mode for SRM. 6) Go find the report which you want to customize and open it. 7) Press the 'Edit Mode' button at the top of that page. 8) Over in the left pane, with that report selected press 'Copy the selected report' (button up at the top of the pane). 9) In the tree view of the left pane, find your newly created report pack and open it. 10) Press the paste button above the left pane.  Now you can use and modify that report with no fear of changing the original.  Additionally, because it is in a report pack, you can more easily keep it separate from the EMC default reports, export it to back it up or take it to another instance of SRM.  The report pack creation for doing development is just something I have found helpful in the past.  Good luck! Reid
Hi,  I am having a play with the reporting in ViPR SRM and got a bit stuck so wonder if you can help. There is a report that would be useful for us but it contains a load of child reports and i would like to know is there a way to either copy the report to My Reports so it can be edited?  i am trying to create a report that will be scheduled every day to replace a load of manual checks.  This report shown below is an ideal starting point for what i am after but i am only interested in the top section that details the storage pools and i think i can edit this to remove the other sections but i don't want to do that. I have added it to my personal view thinking i might be able to edit it and remove the bits i do not want but i can't find out how to do that. [IMAGE]  So firstly is possible to copy one of the default/existing reports and secondly if you can how can you edit it to remove the bits you do not want.   I will continue to play with this but any advice/tips/hints would be great.  Thanks
Can you copy and edit one of the standard reports
