The Import page lets you import report definitions into Identity Reporting. After the reports have been imported, these definitions are available for use throughout Identity Reporting. You can add scheduled runs for the imported definitions and make changes to the settings associated with the report definitions, such as the criteria, default notifications, and configuration. You can also add scheduled runs for the imported report definitions, or use the imported report to create a new report definition.
If you make changes to the Template report, you need to restart the server after importing the new definition. If you don’t restart the server, your changes are not visible in Identity Reporting.
The Import Report Definitions page allows you to import a single report definition (in an RPZ file) or an archive that contains multiple report definitions (in an SPZ file). You can include multiple RPZ and SPZ files in a single import procedure.
To import a report definition:
Go to the NetIQ download site.
Download the IDM_Version_Downloads.zip file.
Extract the file.
The extracted file contains the following items for each bundled report:
RPZ file containing report definition
Zip file containing SQL files for the supported databases and a Readme file (Readme.html) that outlines the instructions to run the report.
Additional source zip file (src.zip) of the report.
Log in to the Identity Reporting application.
Click Import.
Click Choose file and choose the <Report name>_4.7.0.0.rpz.
Click Import to begin the import procedure.
NOTE:To overwrite an existing report, enable the Overwrite existing reports check box.
After importing one or more report definitions, you can see the reports and make changes to them on the Repository page.
Perform the following actions to execute the views on the database that are necessary to run the reports and populate data.
Unzip <Report name>_4.7.0.0.zip file.
Follow the instructions mentioned in the Readme.html file from the extracted file.
You can successfully be able to run the reports from the Repository screen in IDMRPT. If a report fails to run, ensure that you have correctly followed the instructions from the Readme file for the report. For example, execute SQL statements appropriate to your SQL database to update or create the required views.
NOTE:Identity Manager 4.7 reports are not published on the Download page. To import the reports, see Using the Import Page.
