View a specific report for the result

Each result contains several different reports. To view a specific report, click the button for the report you want to view, such as Survey Report, Suitability Report, or Dependencies Report.

When opening a result as a read-only file, you are only viewing the previously collected data as a read-only file. The following limitations apply:

  • The Annotation Report window does not contain any data. To view the Annotation Report, you need to open a result after opening its Solution.

  • The Suitability Report window shows data, but you cannot change the modeling parameters, such as the Target System or the Threading Model.

  • If you modify your sources or Intel® Advisor annotations, you need to open the solution to collect data and perform analysis (see Opening a Result) to update the result and view Annotation Report data.
