You can set the following report parameters:

1. The time range of the report. Use the Start date, Start time, Stop date, and Stop time fields.
2. Object description (Fig. 5.2—3). You can use this field to choose between two report modes:
   1. Report on all the system objects.
   2. Report on one system object.

1. Failure type (Fig. 5.2—4). You can use this field to specify the failure type for which to create the report. You can also create a report on all the failures within a certain time period.

Here are some details on the Save report and Open report buttons. For example, if there is no printer at the place where the Monitoring Reports component is installed or if you want to save your report in electronic form to view it later, you can save the report as a FRP, XLS, XML, RTF, or HTML file. Then you can open the report on another computer.
