in the Report Definition, a valid Name filter “CurrentSystemName.*:*” is added by

definition is created or opened. This default Name filter can be replaced with a * to
fetch the data from all the views of all the configured systems in a distributed
environment. You can add Name filters from the Name Filter dialog box.
