SMT Reports

SMT provides the possibility to generate reports based on SMT and Novell Customer
Center data. Generated reports contain statistics of the registered machines and products
used and of the active, expiring, or missing subscriptions. If the number of registered
machines and products exceeds the number of available subscriptions, warnings are
given.
NOTE: Assignment of Reports
If you are using more than one SMT server in your environment, generated
reports may not represent all of the SMT servers or machines in your environ-
ment. For the complete statistics of all your registered machines, refer to the
information in the Novell Customer Center.
