Sending a report by email

In addition to displaying the reports in the Console or exporting the contents of the report in your chosen output format(s), you can also send them by email. This feature is useful, for example, for providing operators or administrators with information they need for troubleshooting.

Note:

Before you can send report data by email, an SMTP server must be configured for this purpose. For details on specifying an SMTP server for emailing reports, see the Veritas Data Insight Administrator's Guide.

To send a report by email

  1. Do one of the following:

    • When creating a report, specify the email addresses of the recipients who you want to send the reports. The output is emailed to these recipients each time a report is generated.

    • Click on the Reports tab. The Reports home page displays by default. The home page lists all the available reports for the logged in user.

      If you want to send the latest report output through email, on the Reports home page, select the report, and in the Select Action drop-down, click Email Latest.

  2. In the Email report popup, enter the email addresses of the recipients.
  3. Click Send.
  4. To email an older report output, in the Select Action drop-down, click View.
  5. On the Report Details page, click the Email button adjacent to the report output you want to email.
  6. Enter the email addresses of the recipients, and click Send.

    Click the download report link in the received email to download the report output. You can disable this feature by setting the appropriate global properties.
