9 To find the correct object, you will have to drill down several levels in the list.
For a specific ESX Server object, drill down through the following path:
vFoglight->AllData->VMWModel->VMwareModel->virtualCenters->
<virtualCenterInstance>->esxServerCollection->esxServers->
<esx Server object>.
10 Click the Set button.
11 Provide a report name in the Name field. This name is referenced in both the
Scheduled Reports and Generated Reports Views.
You should use a descriptive name for the report. For this example, you can use
"<Hostname> Monthly Report".
12 Select an appropriate value for the Schedule field.
The value you select for the Schedule field determines how frequently the report
is run. In this example, to generate a report for one month of data, select the
Monthly Off Hours schedule.
Larger reports are typically run during off hours because a lot of resources may be
required to generate the requested report properly.
13 Specify the retention policy for the report in the Retained Results field.
