Run the Registry Script

For CA IdentityMinder to change data sources for reports in the Report Server, run the mergeConnection script.

Note: On a 64-bit system, omit this procedure. The Report Server is a 32-bit application, so you use the 32-bit side of the registry. On a 64-bit system, open REGEDT32 directly from System32, and create the MergeConnectionProperties key with the Type REG_SZ and value Yes. Create the key in this location:

@HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Business Objects\Suite 12.0\Crystal Reports

On Windows, perform the following steps:

  1. Copy the mergeConnection script from the system with the CA IdentityMinder Admin toolkit to the Report Server. On the system with the toolkit, the default location for this script is as follows:

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

  2. Run the mergeconnections_3.0.reg script and respond to the prompts that appear.
  3. Click Start, Program Files, CA, Report Server, Central Configuration Manager.
  4. Start all services, including Tomcat and the BO Server service.

On UNIX and Linux, perform the following steps:

  1. Check for Windows control characters in the mergeconnections script.

    If you downloaded the software using FTP in binary mode, these characters do not appear in this script. If you used another download method, use the dos2unix command to remove these characters.

  2. Copy the mergeconnections_3.0.cf script from the system with the CA IdentityMinder Admin toolkit to the Report Server. On the system with the toolkit, the default location for this script is as follows:

    /opt/CA/IdentityManager/IAM_Suite/Identity_Manager/tools/ReportServerTools

    On the Report Server system, place the script in this location:

    installation-directory/bobje/enterprise120/generic
    
  3. Source in the environment variables for BusinessObjects Enterprise, as follows:
    source installation-directory//bobje/setup/env.sh
    
  4. Run the following script, as follows:
    ./configpatch.sh mergeconnections_3.0.cf
    

    Select 1 as the option when prompted.

    Note: On Linux systems, set the environment variable as follows before you run the script:

    export _POSIX2_VERSION=199209
    
  5. Restart crystal processing servers as follows:
    1. Log in as the non root user you used to install the Report Server.
    2. Issue these commands:
      cd /opt/CA/SharedComponents/CommonReporting3/bobje
      ./stopservers
      ./startservers
