How to create and run a Workstation Workload Summary report.

About this task

To create a task to run a Workstation Workload Summary report, perform the following steps:

Procedure

  1. From the navigation toolbar, click Monitor & Reporting > Reporting > Manage Predefined Reports and click Create.
  2. In the Task information tab, select Workstation Workload Summary Report as Report Type.
  3. In the Enter Task Information panel, define the type of scheduler engine here you want to run the task. You can select an engine at a later time. Remember that the engine name must be specified before running the task. Depending on the engine type you choose, the filtering criteria and the results you can display are different. You can also specify whether to share the task with others, to allow them to see and run the task, but not to modify it. Task and engine sharing can be disabled by the TWSWEBUIAdministrator in the global settings customizable file.
  4. In the Report Header Tab, choose the title and the description of the output of the report. Check the boxes Append report selection criteria to the report header and Include table of contents, if needed.
  5. In the Filter Criteria tab, define a filter to select the jobs you want to include in the report. All the information about fields and options is available in the panel help.
  6. In the Report Output Content tab, select the layout of your report. You can view the information either as a chart or as a table. The chart view shows the workload of all the specified workstations, aggregated by time. You can also choose to view the workloads of all the specified workstations in a single line chart. Aggregating all the information, you have a comparative view of the workstation workloads. You can select the report format. If you select HTML format, you can also limit the size of the report. You can also select the granularity with which to extract the data (by day or hour) and to order the report. After you make your selection, click Save to complete the task creation using all the default values.

What to do next

Next, run the report. For further details, see Running Dynamic Workload Console reports and batch reports.
