Printing a Performance File

You can print performance statistics from the Performance Manager, either as a chart or as a table. A
chart prints out the information which can be seen in the window, and a table prints out all of the
performance statistics in a plain text format.
The output is printed by the default printer set up on your network.
Step 1 Open the Performance Manager and select the desired performance statistics.
Step 2 From the File menu, select Print.
Step 3 Choose As Chart or As Table.

Saving Performance Data to a File

save performance data, follow these steps:
Step 1 Open the Performance Manager and view the performance statistics you want to save.
Step 2 Choose File > Export to File or click Save As on the Toolbar.
Step 3 The File Chooser window appears. The left hand panel displays the directories and the right hand panel
displays the files. Use the scroll bars to locate the desired file. Click Filter to expand the list of options.
Step 4 Choose the file. The full path name of the selected file is displayed in the File Filter box, as well as the
Choice box.
Note
Step 5 Click Apply to save the file or Cancel to return to the Performance Manager window.

Archiving

Collected data is archived each day. The applied file name is generated automatically using the format
mm-dd-yyyy.log. When entries are archived, they are purged from the database. By default, only raw
data is archived.
If more than one purge is carried out in a day, the original log file is overwritten and the information
Note
stored is lost. After a purge, only the information in the current sample period is available for display.
