MORE INFO RUNNING OPERATIONS MANAGER REPORTS
You can learn more about running reports in Operations Manager at http://technet.

Scheduling reports
By scheduling reports, you can have reports periodically delivered through email or published
to a file share. SQL Server's report server also caches scheduled reports, making them quicker
to access through the console. Prior to scheduling a report, you should create a template
of the report that you wish to schedule and save it as a favorite report. If you want to email
reports, you'll need to create an email channel by specifying an SMTP server through the
channel's node, under notifications in the Administration workspace.
To create a scheduled report based on a report that has been saved as a favorite report,
perform the following steps:
1.
In the Reporting workspace of the Operations Manager console, click the Favorite
Reports node, and then click the favorite report that you want to configure as a sched-
uled report.
On the Tasks menu, click Report, and then click Schedule.
2.
On the Delivery Settings page, shown in Figure 2-80, specify the following information:
