About this task
NOTE: If you are logging in as a Device Manager, only the device groups and devices that are in your scope are available for
viewing and management.
For example, if you are logging in as a Device Manager DM1 user you can view all the integrated reports for the devices and
groups assigned to Device Manager DM1 user. However, if Device Manager DM1 user has created any custom reports, only
Device Manager DM1 user and Administrator can view and access these reports.
NOTE:
The reports are generated based on your selection for Report Duration and Aggregation Period in Power
Manager Settings page.
To view and download a report, perform the following steps:

Manager devices such as device name, device details, power and temperature values, energy consumed, and what time
the data was collected.
● Power Manager: Power and Thermal Report of Groups—Displays all the power and temperature details of Power
Manager groups such as the group name, power and temperature values of groups, energy consumed, and what time the
data was collected.
● Power Manager: Power Headroom Report for Physical Groups—Displays the total power consumption of the group
