1. An information management system configured to create graphical reports associated with a status of the information management system, the system comprising:

  • a first information management cell having a first storage manager coupled, via a first network, to a first plurality of computing devices,wherein the first storage manager includes a first storage manager database to store a first data storage policy associated with the first plurality of computing devices,wherein the first data storage policy includes rules that determine a frequency by which the first storage manager causes data that is stored by the first plurality of computing devices to be backed up by a secondary storage device,wherein the first storage manager database is a first type of database; and

    a second information management cell connected to the first information management cell and having a second storage manager coupled, via a second, network to a second plurality of computing devices,wherein the second storage manager includes a second storage manager database to store a second data storage policy associated with the second plurality of computing devices,wherein the second storage manager database is a second type of database that is different from the first type of database,wherein the second storage manager includes a memory storing instructions,wherein the second storage manager includes a processor coupled to the memory,wherein the instructions are executable by the processor to cause the second storage manager to;

    receive an input from a user to query the first storage manager database and the second storage manager database,identify the first storage manager database as the first type of database and the second storage manager database as the second type of database,query the first storage manager database using a first set of query commands,query the second storage manager database using a second set of query commands, 

    wherein the first set of query commands are different from the second set of query commands and the first set of query commands are based on identifying the first storage manager database as the first type of database,normalize information received in response to the queries of the first storage manager database and the second storage manager database so the received information has a uniform format, anddisplay a graphical report of the normalized information received from the queries, based on the input received from the user.
