8.4 Migrating the Reports to Reporting Center

After installing or upgrading to Analysis Center 3.2, you can use the Report Migration utility to migrate the Analysis Center 2.9 reports to the Reporting Center Server. To open the Report Migration utility, click Main > Migration from the Admin Console.

The Report Migration utility provides two options from which the reports can be migrated to the specified Reporting Center Server:

  • Warehouse: Select this option to migrate the reports from the warehouse after you have upgraded from Analysis Center 2.9 to Analysis Center 3.2. You need to select the reports from the reports list to migrate.

    NOTE:This option is disabled if a fresh installation of Analysis Center 3.2 is performed.

  • XML: Select this option if you want to migrate the reports that have been exported from an Analysis Center 2.9 setup. This option can also be used in a fresh Analysis Center 3.2 setup. Browse the folder where the exported Analysis Center 2.9 reports are available and then select the reports from the reports list.

    IMPORTANT:Before exporting the reports from an Analysis Center 2.9 setup, you must apply the Hotfix 7015655 on the setup to retain the metric context set for these reports. If you have already applied the Hotfix 2.9.0.3 on the setup, you do not need to apply the Hotfix 7015655.

During report migration, you must select either Windows or SQL Authentication to connect to the Reporting Center database. If you use Windows Authentication, the Analysis Center account that you are logged in must belong to the System Administrators group for the SQL Server. This account must have access to the Reporting Center. If you use SQL Authentication, you must specify a SQL Server account that belongs to the System Administrators group for the SQL Server of Reporting Center.
