Reportcaster Schedules New Machine
Hello,
We have moved from old to new webfocus machine and Just started the Report caster on New Machine and started today. It start distributing to users all the schedules, Even though the time and date is different. Please let me know if any one have seen this issue.

Thank you,
Vijaya

Look at the ReportCaster Recovery option, by default it's set to "On".

Administration Console -> ReportCaster -> Configuration -> Recovery

Hello v_ani,

Can you explain your issue in a little more detail? Is the problem that the existing schedules are now running on a different date/time than they are supposed to?

Did you turn off report caster on your old machine(s)?

Thank you all your reply. For example if I stopped the reportcaster service today and restart the reportcaster service again tomorrow then what happens it distributing all the schedules to the users no matter it has different time and different date. we have more than five hundred schedules.
