Configuring Reporting Data

A report has to be defined with a report definition XML file.

Prerequisite: A Reporting Database has to be provided by the administrator. See Install and Configure the Report Database.

To Configure Reporting Data

1. Define any number of reports via report definitions (Automic\Release.Manager\ReportDefinitions).

   See also: General Structure of Report Definitions

2. Use the create report command of the CLI to activate the reports.

3. Connect your reporting tool to the report table which gets created in the reporting database.

Note: You cannot modify existing reports. However, you can delete the current report via CLI and create a new one. Use the -force flag to drop the table from the reporting database if you want to reuse the same table name.
