SAN HQ - Automating Reports
Hi,
I've searched, but I can't find reference to this problem. I'm trying to find a way to automate generating reports on a scheduled basis through SAN HQ. I know there's no functionality to do this via the GUI, but is there a way I can script this via CLI? I'm looking to create batch scripts that I can schedule weekly to generate various PDF reports available within HQ. Does anyone have a working example of this?
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

Yes, this is available with SANHQ 2.x releases.
From the quick start PDF
Scheduling Report Creation
If you want to generate reports regularly, use Schedule Tasks in the Windows Control Panel to specify a schedule for running the following command:
SANHQ_install_directory\SANHQClient.exe -ReportSettingsFile=“XML_file_name”
The XML_file_name variable specifies the name of the XML file you created in Using a Command to Create a Report on page 7-7.
