By default, Sentinel generate reports in PDF format. You can also generate reports in CSV format by making additional configurations to the Sentinel server.
To generate a report in CSV format:
Log in to the Sentinel server as novell user.
Change to the /etc/opt/novell/sentinel/config directory:
cd /etc/opt/novell/sentinel/config/
Open the obj-component.JasperReportingComponent.properties file for editing:
vi obj-component.JasperReportingComponent.properties
Edit the following entries:
reporting.csv.enable=true
reporting.csv.outputdir=<the directory where the reports must be stored>
The novell user must have read/write permissions on the specified directory.
Restart the Sentinel server.
When you generate a report, it is stored in the CSV format in the directory specified in the reporting.csv.outputdir attribute.
