If you're management wants Monthly Scorecards to measure against SLA's then 
they usually will buy a tool.

The way I look at it is that Veritas could bundle a reporting system,
but then they'd just charge us more for licenses.  Although it would be
nice to have a fully integrated reporting system supported by Veritas,
I'm at least somewhat satisifed that we can go out and purchase
something to fill the needs.  It's certainly tougher to justify to buy a
3rd party product but they are out there.  Aptare's StorageConsole is my
favorite.
