Deploy Default Reports

CA Identity Manager comes with default reports you can use for reporting.

To deploy the default reports

1. Unzip the importbiarfilestool.zip file on the machine where the Report Server is installed. This default Windows location for this tools is:

   C:\Program Files\CA\Identity Manager\IAM Suite\Identity Manager\tools\BIARTool

   Important! Unzip this file to the root folder of the drive where the Report Server (Business Objects) is installed. Also, this file must be downloaded to your system using FTP in binary mode if you are working on UNIX. Otherwise, Windows control characters are inserted in the shell scripts.

2. Be sure that the JAVA_HOME variable is set correctly, and that you have JDK1.5 installed. If you have plan to install the report server on a 64-bit windows machine, then ensure you are pointing to JDK1.5 (32-bit version) and not Windows AMD-64 bit version.
3. Run the following file in the import-biar-tool folder:

   Windows: importIMBIARFiles.bat

   UNIX: importIMBIARFiles.sh

   Provide the following information needed to import the default reports:

   • Report Server Root Folder—location of the business objects install folder. For example:

     UNIX: /opt/CA/SharedComponents/CommonReporting/bobje/enterprise115

     Windows: E:\Program Files\CA\SC\CommonReporting\BusinessObjects Enterprise 11.5

   • Reporting Database Type—1=MSSQL, 2=Oracle

     Note: This is the database that the Report Server (CA Business Intelligence) uses to store its own data.

   • Reporting Database User—user created for the Report Database
   • Reporting Database Password—password for the user created in Report Database
   • Reporting Database DSN Name—the ODBC DSN name created
   • Reporting Database Name—the Report Database name
   • Reporting Server Administrator Name—The default is Administrator. If you have a different administrator name, provide it here.
   • Reporting System Password—reporting administrator's password entered during the installation
   • BIAR File Location—provide the correct location.

     The default installation location on Windows is:

     • C:\Program Files\CA\Identity Manager\IAM Suite\Identity Manager\tools\imrexport\ReportDefinitions\IM Standard Reports\Ms-SQL_Reports\ms-sql_reports.biar
     • C:\Program Files\CA\Identity Manager\IAM Suite\Identity Manager\tools\imrexport\ReportDefinitions\IM Standard Reports\Oracle Reports\oracle_reports.biar

     The default installation location on UNIX is:

     • /opt/CA/IdentityManager/IAM_Suite/Identity_Manager\tools\imrexport\ReportDefinitions\IM Standard Reports\Ms-SQL_Reports\ms-sql_reports.biar
     • /opt/CA/IdentityManager/IAM_Suite/Identity_Manager\tools\imrexport\ReportDefinitions\IM Standard Reports\Oracle Reports\oracle_reports.biar

   The default reports are imported in the IM Reports folder of the Report Server.

Note: After the import completes, you are asked if you want to remove the biekInstall.properties file. BiekInstall.properties contains sensitive information, such as user passwords. This file is not used again by the tool, but it can be kept for future reference.
