Application Usage Report Use the Application Usage report to find out which applications have been running on your client computers and who ran those applications. Network Test Report A Network Test report helps you measure and troubleshoot the communication between your administrator computer and your client computers. The Network Interfaces report might also help troubleshooting network hardware issues. Use this report to help identify reasons for network communication problems that could affect Apple Remote Desktop. For example, if you're unable to copy items to particular client computers from the administrator computer, you may find you have a bad connection to the computers. Using this information can help you isolate the problem to a particular cable or hub. Generating Your Own Reports Because the Apple Remote Desktop database is in standard SQL format, you can also use your favorite SQL scripts to query, sort, and analyze the collected data. In addition, you can export data from the database into a file so you can import it for viewing in a different program, such as a spreadsheet application. 20 Chapter 1 Using Apple Remote Desktop

Using Apple Remote Desktop
Application Usage Report
Use the Application Usage report to find out which applications have been running on
your client computers and who ran those applications.
Network Test Report
A Network Test report helps you measure and troubleshoot the communication
between your administrator computer and your client computers. The Network
Interfaces report might also help troubleshooting network hardware issues.
Use this report to help identify reasons for network communication problems that
could affect Apple Remote Desktop. For example, if you’re unable to copy items to
particular client computers from the administrator computer, you may find you have a
bad connection to the computers. Using this information can help you isolate the
problem to a particular cable or hub.
Generating Your Own Reports
Because the Apple Remote Desktop database is in standard SQL format, you can also
use your favorite SQL scripts to query, sort, and analyze the collected data. In addition,
you can export data from the database into a file so you can import it for viewing in a
different program, such as a spreadsheet application.
