Situation

How do I set up multiple report agents to put all of my reports into one central location?

Resolution

On each discovered AppManager Report Agent, run the AMADMIN_SetReportPaths Knowledge Script.  In the script parameters, For "Base Output Report Path",  specify the UNC name of the network drive where you want the reports saved to. The output path should use UNC formatting.

Example:

\\<servername>\c$\program files\netiq\web\amreport

Alternately, to change the parameter manually on the report agent, on the systems which are running the report agent open regedit or regedt32.

Navigate to to the following key:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/NetIQ/common/NETIQREPORTS/

BaseOutputPath

Change it to the mounted network drive where you want the reports saved to. The output path should use UNC formatting.

Example:

default will say: c:\program files\netiq\web\amreports

This should be changed to:

\\<servername>\c$\program files\netiq\web\amreport

After making changes to the registry key, you will have to restart the NetIQ AppManager Client Resource Monitor service.
