This report displays file system information, including utilization statistics for selected devices. For each selected device, the report displays default columns of Device, File System, Type, Size (MB), Available, and Used.

You can customize the output options so that devices are grouped by organization, only file systems over a specific usage percentage are included in the report, and devices are sorted by usage or organization and device.

The following input options are available when generating the report:

  • Select By. Select the devices that will appear in the report. The following input elements appear in this component:
  • Org/Device; Org/Asset; ESX Server/VM. Your selection will have an affect on the fields described below.
  • Org/Device. When selected, you have the option to select all, multiple, or individual organizations, then you can optionally select specific devices in those organizations.
  • Org/Asset. When selected, you have the option to select all, multiple, or individual organizations, then you can optionally select specific assets in those organizations.
  • ESX Server/VM. When selected, you will have the option to select all, multiple, or individual ESX Servers, then you can optionally select specific Guest VMs on those ESX Servers.
  • All Items. Select this checkbox if you want all devices in the system to be included in this report.
  • Organizations/ESX Server. If the All Items checkbox is unselected, select multiple or individual Organizations or ESX servers. The report will contain only the devices in the organizations you select, or only Guest VMs on the ESX servers you select. You can further filter the list of devices or guest VMs by selecting the Select individual items checkbox.

You can further reduce the list of assets to include on the report. Depending on your selection in the Org/Device; Org/Asset; ESX Server/VM radio buttons, you can select specific assets, devices, or Guest VMs from the organizations or ESX servers you selected in the Organizations/ESX Server Select list.
