#### Exporting the monitoring data

You can export the monitoring data of the reports' status to a CSV file. However, before doing this, you need to make sure the profiling DB on the server node where the monitoring data will be saved has already been configured. For details about how to configure the profiling DB, see the topic Configuring the server database in a standalone environment.

To export the monitoring data of the reports' status:

1. Click the Export Data link on the reports status panel. The Export Data dialog appears. See the dialog.

2. Specify the report type, the time period of the monitoring data and the name of the exported file respectively.
3. Click OK to export the data.

The following are details about options in the Export Data dialog:

Report

The type of reports you want to export the monitoring data.

From

The date and time from which the monitoring data starts. You can type it in the text field or click the calendar button to select the date and time.

To

The date and time to which the monitoring data ends. You can type it in the text field or click the calendar button to select the date and time.

File Name

The name of the exported file.

OK

Exports the data to a CSV file and opens the File Download panel. You can choose to open the file or save it elsewhere.

Cancel

Does not retain any changes and closes the dialog.

Note: The exported monitoring data in the CSV file are encoded with UTF-8. If you open an exported CSV file which contains Chinese strings by a double-click, the Chinese strings would be displayed as random code in the file. To solve this problem, you need to open the file in the following way:

1. Start Microsoft Excel first.
2. Click From Text in the Data tab, then select the exported CSV file and click Import.
3. Select 65001: Unicode (UTF-8) in the File Origin selector, then keep clicking Next and at last click Finish and OK.
