This section gives a short description of each of the Predefined Evaluations supplied as part of the ASF product. These sample Predefined Evaluations access test ASF data records, so you can activate any of them immediately after installing ASF in order to view some sample ASF reports. You can use them as draft when you create Predefined Evaluations of your own.

This is an evaluation of type 2, showing the maximum and minimum values recorded during 1 month for various disk-related ASF data fields in several databases simultaneously.
This evaluation uses the Evaluation Profile NEW-SPACE-DB, and accesses ASF records which were stored using the Store Profile TEST-DB-ALL and Store Type DA.

This evaluation uses the Evaluation Profile NEW-SPACE-FILE, and accesses ASF records which were stored using the Store Profile TEST-DB-ALL and Store Type DA.
This shows all databases and files for which data is stored. The list is generated by using a Critical Report in an unusual way, namely by specifying the search criteria as "every database and file whose ID is greater than 0". Since this is true for all databases and files, the Critical Report will display them all.
This evaluation uses the Evaluation Profile NEW-LIST-FILES, and accesses ASF records which were stored using the Store Profile NEW-TEST-DB-ALL and Store Type DA.
This shows all files of single database for which data is stored. The list is generated by generating a Critical Report using the same technique as for Predefined Evaluation 18.

The slots for the predefined evaluations 20-24 are empty. You can use them for your own predefined evaluations.
