Hi,

I read through this page:
http://forums.informationbuild...347072096#8347072096

and I still don't understand where I can change agent for RC?

at WebFOCUS Server > WorkSpace > Data Services > 'Right click' create New Data Service called 'RC_Service'

at RepoerCaster Server > Configuration > Data Servers > EDASERVE> Default 'Enable'

and that it all I can see, where can I change DEFAULT agent for RC to 'RC_Service' ?

You first need to add the service in the Reportcaster admin console. After that you can choose it for a task in a schedule.

There is something missing in all the things you read. In the WebFOCUS client administration console you need to add a second Reporting server under the Reporting Servers / Server Connections to point to the Report Caster data services you created on the reporting server. It is very important that under the advanced portion of this configuration you enter the data service name in the Service Name. Then once you have that then go to the ReportCaster console under Configuration and click on the data servers folder. One of the top menu options is New and you click that and it will let you select your new ReportCaster server connection. Then edit that and check the box that makes it the default server.

Now the weird part is that when you schedule your request it will still show EDASERVE as the server but because Report Caster has the ReportCaster server as the default it will override that.

I tested this and looked at the agents after the scheduled run and it showed the activity there.

Hope it helps!

Hi,

Here are the steps that I have test so far:

1. At Administrator Console in WebFOCUS Server >Configuration Tab > Reporting Servers > Server Connections right click 'New' > since there is ONLY one EDASERVE, So I input same EDASERVE's Host name, TCP/IP port and HTTP port, but different Node Name(eg. EDASERVE_2) to identify the different. > So end up with EDASERVE and EDASERVE_2 .

2. Login into Report Server(port:8121) > Workspace > Data Services right click add new service > named new Data Service "RC_Service".

3. Go back Administrator Console > Configuration > Reporting Servers> Server Connections> EDASERVE_2 > Advanced > Service Name input "RC_Service".

4. Report Caster Server > Configuration > Data Servers > EDASERVES_2 > checked Default.

5. Restart Report Caster Server/Services > Restart WebFOCUS Service > Run an RC Schedule > Check log(edaprint.log ) and I saw:

So, it still not using RC_Service as expected, what I miss?

Nox

That sounds correct. I went back and tested mine and found that in the ReportCaster config both EDASERVE and EDASERVE_2 showed default which surprised me. I changed it back to EDASERVE_2 but now like you it used the DEFAULT data service. So I am at a loss now as to why it isn't working today. Maybe you should open a case with techsupport. I will continue to try this but wanted to give you an update

Nox

I found the answer, In the Client adminstration console under Reporting Servers right mouse click on the Alternate Server Mapping option and choose new, then select EDASERVE for the Server and EDASERVE_2 for the Alternate server and click save. It worked for me...

sound cool, I'll give it a shot, Thanks!
