Policy Reports are automatically generated as a normal application of Policy Sets and their associated individual policies. There is no additional configuration required for this functionality.

When accessing Policy reports from the Main menu (when using NPMK) or from the Nirmata Full Edition by accessing the Main Menu>Policies>Policy Report, it will display the currently configured clusters. It will display a general Grade of the overall cluster and a numeric breakdown of number of Grade, Fail, Warn, Pass, Error and Skip.
