Node reports

You can generate reports with that detail information about your HP SUM session, including details on a node, components you can install, and failed dependencies.

The reports for a node enable you to generate HTML, XML, and CSV reports. On the Reports screen, HP SUM includes a Reports Center that displays previous reports you have generated.


[NOTE: ]

NOTE: HP SUM uses the same function to generate reports for all node types.


  1. From the Nodes screen, select a node, and then select Actions → Report.

  2. Select the reports you want to generate:

    • Firmware details – displays firmware versions that are currently installed on the node.

    • Deploy preview – displays components that HP SUM can install on the node.

    • Failed dependency details – displays any failed dependencies on the node.

    • Deploy details – displays details about what HP SUM installed on a node.

    • Inventory – displays details about what components are in the baselines.

    • Combined report – Generates one of each report type.


    [NOTE: ]

    NOTE: If you cannot select a report, HP SUM might not have enough information to generate the report.


  3. Click the report format you want HP SUM to generate: HTML, CSV, or XML.

  4. In the Advanced Report Options you can:

    • Select a directory to save the reports. HP SUM creates a directory if it does not exist.

    • Select whether to run the report in the background.

  5. Click Generate.
