Activating Cloud Metrics Reporting in the Command Center

You can activate Cloud Metrics Reporting in the Command Center.

Cloud Metrics Reporting offers a way to view Metrics Reports without having to host a Private Metrics Reporting Server. Instead of viewing Metrics reports on the Web Console, you can view Metrics reports on the Commvault Cloud Services Portal. When you activate data collection for Cloud Metrics Reports, data is automatically uploaded to the Cloud Metrics Reporting Server. The Cloud Metrics Reporting Server processes the collected data, and then displays reports based on that data on the Cloud Services Portal.
