The Report Viewer
The Report Viewer is one of the most important tools in the upgrade process because it provides per-issue messaging, resolution tracking, and (in many cases) hyperlinks to the compiled help documentation distributed with the UA.
Issues are organized in the Report Viewer on a per-server and then per-component basis. They can be filtered by type (that is, all issues, all upgrade issues, pre-upgrade issues, all migration issues, and resolved issues), and you can track your resolution progress by checking the This Issue Has Been Resolved check boxes. Figure 9.7 shows the main user interface of the Report Viewer.
