Symptoms

Unisphere for PowerMax v9.2.3.11

When running a Chart Report for FE Port Metrics (for example Host MBs/sec) the graph is present in Unisphere.

However, when the "PDF Chart Report" is generated it shows data in tabular format - no graph is present.

See the PDF Report example below:

PDF Report format as tabular instead of graph

 

Cause

This is expected behavior.

For every chart PDF report in Unisphere, if a chart report is required for a PDF export the maximum number of metric objects that can be selected is 24, whether that be Port Groups, Storage Groups, Masking Views so on

If the number of metric objects selected is greater than 24 then no chart will be displayed in the PDF report, just tabular data.

Resolution

Select 24 or fewer metric objects for the chart report:

24 Objects

See the example report below:

PDF Report with 24 objects or less generates graph data
