which can be dragged and dropped onto the Result Objects pane.

of the new report display in the Result Objects pane.
For more information, see the “Creating new documents” section of the “Creating and editing Web
Intelligence documents” chapter of the Building Reports Using the Web Intelligence Java Report
Panel guide.
“Select a context” message
When you drag certain objects onto the Result Objects pane, you will be prompted to select a
context. This occurs because objects in the designer interface can be related to each other. For
example, Storage Systems and Hosts are related because storage systems present storage to hosts.
This context defines the relationship which exists between the storage system and the host.
Because there are multiple relationships between the host and storage system, there are multiple
contexts to choose from.
When you select any of the contexts, a description of that context is displayed.
For descriptions of the contexts that are defined in SRM Report Optimizer, refer to the contexts
guide.
