HPE StoreEasy HPS reports

The HPS Reporting tool is used to gather detailed information about the Microsoft Windows environment installed. It includes hardware, software (including HPE applications), and storage-specific information.

The data collected helps HPE product development and customer support engineers better understand the use and configuration of the HPE StoreEasy Storage system. It will assist them in diagnosing the faults and potential issues.

HPS Reports run using the HPE StoreEasy management console. It does not include the AHS Reports, Windows Storage Server Event Logs, and HPE StoreEasy application logs. The tool does not make any permanent changes to the operating system or layered applications (HPE StoreEasy applications installed by the customers).

A CAB (compressed zip) file is generated. It contains all the reports and log generated and gathered during data collection.

NOTE:
  1. Any personally identifiable information (PII) is collected and processed in conformance with the HPE Privacy regulations.

  2. The average time taken by the tool to complete is 5 to 20 minutes. It depends on the following:
    • Architecture

    • Version of operating system
