Report settings

Use the Report settings task to view and configure properties for all reports that are created for the cluster.

Select Actions > Report settings to open the Report Settings window, from which you can configure basic properties for all reports in the cluster.

Fields

Directory for all cluster report files
Specify the full path to an existing directory on the IBM® Systems Director server where you want PowerHA® SystemMirror to store all new report files for the cluster. If you change this path, existing reports remain in the previous path and directory. The default directory location is /opt/ibm/director/data/powerha/reports/<cluster ID>.
Maximum number of reports to retain
Specify the number of reports to keep. If the number of reports exceeds this limit, PowerHA SystemMirror deletes report files by starting with the oldest files until this limit is met.

Specify the fully qualified URL of the File Transfer Protocol (FTP) directory location to use for exporting report files. This location becomes the default value for this setting in the Upload report task.
Host name
Specify the fully qualified host name on which the FTP directory is located. This host name becomes the default value for this setting in the Upload report task.
User ID
Specify the user name to use for accessing the specified host system when exporting a report file to the specified FTP directory. This user name becomes the default value for this setting in the Upload report task.
Email (SMTP) server
Specify the fully qualified host name of the Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) server to use when sending a report file to an email account. This server name becomes the default value for this setting in the Send report task.
Email (SMTP) port
