VMware CPU Overallocation report does not list data after being copied to My Definitions

Hey Ken,

I tried to repo customer's issue with FVE 6.8.

Please find the screenshots of the WARNING message, the generated report being empty.

View copied to Reports dashboard:

Empty report:

But also find this KB, which talks about the warning:

https://support.quest.com/SolutionDetail.aspx?id=SOL73897&pr=Foglight

However, a warning message will be issued that the inaccessible, non-public entity will be copied and the reference will be changed to refer to the copy. This may not be what you want.

Could be design of the product, where a canned report cannot be copied as it is.

KB talks as below:

However, a warning message will be issued that the inaccessible, non-public entity will be copied and the reference will be changed to refer to the copy. This may not be what you want. You may actually want the references to be maintained because you intend to deep copy a view to a temporary module, make the desired changes to the view and its related entities, and then deep copy the view back to its original module.

Please Open CSR with repo steps to find out, what causes this WARNING MESSAGE & how to address as mentioned in the KB about the "desired changes to the view and its related entities, and then deep copy the view back to its original module"

Hope this helps!

Best Regards,

Rachel

Hi Rachel,

Thank you so much.

I managed to reproduce the issue for the other report templates as well.

Yeah, I suspect that it could be a product behavior.

I will open a CSR to investigate deeper.

Thanks,
