Configure the Connection to the Administrative UI

You configure the Report Server and Administrative UI connection to configure a trusted relationship between both components. You configure the connection from the Administrative UI.

Note: The Administrative UI can have a trusted relationship with one or more Policy Servers. However, each trusted relationship only allows one Report Server connection. If you must connect to a new Report Server, either delete the current Report Server connection or connect to another Policy Server to configure the connection.

To configure the connection to the Administrative UI

1. Log into the Administrative UI.
2. Click Administration, Admin UI.
3. Click Report Connections, Create Report Server Connection.

   The Create Report Server Connection pane appears.

   Note: Click Help for descriptions of settings and controls, including their respective requirements and limits.

4. Type a connection name in the Connection Name field.
5. Type the Report Server host system name or IP address in the Report Server Host field.
6. Enter the Apache Tomcat connection port in the Tomcat Port field.

   Note: This value is the web server port you entered when installing the Report Server.

7. Enter the administrator password in the respective fields.

   Note: This value is the password you entered for the default BusinessObjects administrator account when installing the Report Server.

8. Click Submit.

   The connection between the Report Server and the Administrative UI is configured.

You have completed installing and registering the Report Server. You can now run policy analysis reports.

Note: Creating and managing audit reports requires a separate audit database.
