fix

At this time, the Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) does not have this capability.  Having each domain have its own database file would require a major changes to the reporting tool.  This requires the ability to store things to different files on the same import and then integrate all those details later in order to get complete, enterprise-wide reports.  

As a workaround, you could perform one of the following:

• Run overnight imports on all domains and then run reports on only those specific domains that you are interested in.   To do so, from the top menu, go to Reports | Filter by Domain and select the specific domains.
  
• Manually rename the database every time an import is conducted.
  
• A third, more complex workaround - write a script that performs the following steps:
  
  For each domain
    Open OaRept-SERVERNAME.mdb file
    Change the settings to select a the specific domain (or set of domains)
    Close the database file
    Run the CLI import command
    Rename the database to something more appropriate.
  End

Note: The database name corresponds to the Directory and Resource Administrator (DRA) server name, not the domain name.

An Enhancement Request has been opened with Development to include this functionality in a future version of Directory and Resource Administrator.
