5.10.1 Notes on creating reports
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Changing the character code
If you use double-byte characters or Japanese single-byte Katakana characters when you create reports, do not change the character code used by PFM - Manager. If you change from one character code to another, you will no longer be able to use the alarms and reports you defined before the change.
If you need to change the character code, do so by uninstalling PFM - Manager and then rebuilding the environment.
(2) Setting refresh intervals
If you intend to display several realtime reports simultaneously, set the refresh interval so that the windows do not automatically refresh at the same time.
(3) Proper use of realtime and historical reports
If you want to view long-term trends in performance data, use a historical report rather than displaying a realtime report for an extended period.
(4) Reports that display a large amount of data
For reports that display a large amount of data (for example, a report showing Process Detail Interval (PD_PDI) records for PFM - Agent for Platform), use data filters or display the records by ranking so that only the necessary data is displayed.
