About storage system reports

Device Manager - Storage Navigator can generate a standard set of reports
that provide views of various aspects of the storage system. In addition to
these views, you can generate custom reports for specific areas of the
system. These include a summary of the system data and configuration,
ports, channel adapters, and disk adapters. You can save reports in CSV files
or HTML files. Tables in the HTML version of the configuration reports are
sortable.
Before making changes to a storage system, create reports of your storage
system's physical configurations and logical settings. Make a similar report
after the changes, and then compare the reports to verify that new settings
were made as intended.
Viewing configuration reports
You can view configuration reports in three ways: in table view, in graphical
view, and as comma-separated value (CSV)-formatted files.
