Historical Stats Not
Always Visible After
Upgrade
Galaxy 2.0 changes the format of data presented by DXi Advanced Reporting.
This format change makes concurrent viewing of DXi Advanced Reporting data
collected before and after an upgrade to Galaxy 2.0 impossible. DXi Advanced
Reporting will display data gathered before upgrade to Galaxy 2.0 ONLY when
the timeframe covers dates before the DXi was upgraded to Galaxy 2.0. If the
timeframe includes dates after the upgrade to Galaxy 2.0, then only the data
collected after the upgrade is visible.
The historical data remains in the logging database. However, the data cannot
always be displayed because of the way that the data was initially recorded.
Since the older 1.x data and the newer 2.x data reside in different databases
with different fields and limitations, such as Truncation start/end, some of these
historical statistics do not display.
However, if you select a timeframe which is
entirely before the 2.x upgrade
(END-Time < Upgrade-Time), the system reverts to the old-style display. If you
select a timeframe where the END-Time > Upgrade-Time, the display changes
to the new style, eventually causing the left-hand porting of the graph, which
refers to older times, to be blank.
Replication Reports Are
Not Supported
In this release, the replication reports are not supported.
Logging On to DXi
Advanced Reporting
If you cannot access the DXi Advanced Reporting Login window, launch a
supported Web browser on a workstation that has network access to the DXi
system for which you want to view reports, and in the browser address box,
type http://<IP_address>/reports/index.html where <IP_address> is the IP
address of the DXi, and then press Enter.
Decrease in Before
Reduction Data
Backup expiration by your backup application causes the Before Reduction data
to decrease immediately in graphs like Data Volume Overview. This occurs when
running DXi Advanced Reporting running on a DXi 2.0. In earlier versions of the
software, backup expiration was not reflected in Before Reduction data until
space reclamation was run. The effect of this change is an immediate drop in
Before Reduction data any time you expire backups.
