Host Details Report
Detail reports are related to a specific enterprise object, such as a backup job or SAN fabric. You can only access detail reports through a link presented in the context of a main report, providing additional information that augments the main report. Detail reports cannot be generated, customized, or saved, as they are specific to the report from which they were derived. Therefore, they will not be available in search results.
Use Quick Search to find the main report or a dashboard by name. Search is case insensitive, supports partial entries, and will display a list of potential matches.
As you enter the report or dashboard name in the Quick Search field, up to 10 potential matches are displayed. If the report or dashboard is shown, you can select and run it directly from the match list. You can also select All Items to display the full search results page and further filter your results.
Access this report from numerous main reports using either Client or Server name links, such as:
• Job Summary Report
• Consecutive Errors by Client
• Disk Usage and Performance
• Billing and Chargeback Summary
Click the server name to go to the Host Details screen for additional information.
Note: The output is specific to the server type, as shown in the following examples. For VMware ESX servers, the host operating system is populated with the VM server’s OS and version.

This table lists the details that have been collected by a vendor product so that you can validate the collected details. You may want to re-prioritize how hosts are being listed, for example, prioritized by the product (subsystem) that is important for your reporting needs.
