Generating Reports
Reports are generated on executing the Reporting Tool script as follows:
− Login on the FOXMAN-UN workstation as an administrator.
− Open a terminal and enter the command:
npgenreports
npgenreports
This command has no options.
− A report directory will be automatically created under the directory /opt/nem/var/reports/np using the naming convention:
<Year>_<Month>_<Day>__<Hour>_<Minute>
<Year>_<Month>_<Day>__<Hour>_<Minute>
[nemadmin@nemsrv ~]$ npgenreports

For example these reports have been generated in /opt/nem/var/reports/np:
[nemadmin@nemsrv np]$ ls -l
total 8
drwxr-sr-x 2 nemadm nem 4096 Feb 27 10:17 2017_02_27__10_16
drwxr-sr-x 2 nemadm nem 4096 Feb 27 10:24 2017_02_27__10_23
Each folder contains a set of CSV files that can be used in any third party tool like Microsoft Excel.
The following files have been generated:
[nemadmin@nemsrv 2017_02_27__10_23]$ ls -l
total 960

Please note:
Depending on the network size, the reports may take several Mb of disk space. It is recommended to remove old report folders.
Please note:
For performance reasons, it is recommended to start the NP reports at night or at a time when the load of the workstation is reduced (e.g. to avoid starting the NP reports when several users are working simultaneously.
