I am using ARD 3.5.1 on a snow leopard network. I can access nodes on the network and gather information(hardware) just fine
but when i try to get reports i.e. application usage it does not generate report just runs,, i get no error just keeps running.
i can remote ilnto devices just fine any ideas how to fix this because we really need software inventory controls
THanks

I think i have the resolution to this you must be logged into YOUR device with the local administrator password and the reporting functionality works

  • Use of "Group" & "Dimlist" property in generating reports.

    Hi BPC Gurus,
            I want to know how to make use of "Group" & "Dimlist" property in generating reports. I know these are the properties available in Appset Dimensions, but how to configure and how to call in report schedule is what I have not understood. Can anybody explain it with example.
    Regards
    KumarMG

    Hi, just as Nilanjan said the DIMLIST property, actually is better to use as a "group" filter inside of business rules, however it is an available property that You can use into the "memberset options of any template, clicling with the rigth bottom of your mouse and selecting the "generator filter" option, it gonna let You create eficient templates.

  • Ard claims no permission for generating reports...

    I tried to do a remote install this morning for the first time this morning...
    Ard started the process but the status was 'waiting for file' forever...
    I tried copying a file to the computer and it claimed that no one was logged into the console
    (but the computer was next to me and I was logged in! )
    In frustration I trashed the prefs file and started from scratch... I readded several machines
    but when I tried to do the install a package or copy a file I was getting the same errors
    I tried to copy to another machine and it worked! ( so did the install )
    In desperation I logged out and back in on the target machine and everything seems
    back to normal ;(
    The main remaining problem is that I can no longer generate reports, the target machine
    reports that I am not authorrized in the task report line.
    What do I need to do to generate reports? ie get authorized

    Is the ARD client up to date on the remote computer? In the Sharing Pane of the System Preferences, have you enabled Remote Management? If Yes, have you enabled to correct users in the "Allow Access" Section? If yes, have you Enabled the correct features in the Options section?

  • How to use runtime datasource with crystal to generate reports

    Hi,
    I am new to BO Crystal reporting area. In my appliaction I am trying to use runtime data source. My objective is to use a 'List of Java ValueObject(class holding private attributes with public getter setter)s' as report database. I am using version BO XI 3.0.
    As per development guide I have to perform the following steps to use runtime datasource
    1. Put your manipulated data in a RowSet form that can be processed.
    2. Create and fill an com.crystaldecisions.sdk.occa.report.data.IDataset object with the rowset data.
    3. Add or set the data source with either the addDataSource or setDataSource methods of DatabaseController class.
    API doesn't allow me to set/add "Record"/ "RecordBatch" to RowSet. Please help.
    Please note: I have already tried and understand the usage of following types of data sources
    1. All types of db conductivities as provided by Crystal designer "Database Expert"
    2. Also I have successfully tried & tested transforming "List of Java VOs" into XML, TXT, CSV file format and use them as data source for crystal.

    The DBMS is the same, we are only using a different database user to log on.
    There is a separate db user for each server.
    The EAR with a given datasource name in the entity EJBs should be deployed
    on all 4 servers without changing descriptors.Interesting. And what is the value of using a different schema/user in the
    different servers? I do believe that this configuration issue can be
    achieved but I have not done it myself. I believe there is a way to
    have some portions of a managed server's configuration by in a per-server
    config file. That would be where you would define the pool. The DataSource
    could also be there (with the same name for every server), or it could
    be in the common one in the admin server.
    I would file a support case to get this documented to show you how to
    do what you want.

  • Cannot log in to OSX Server using ARD

    I am struggling with a problem that I cannot figure out. I posted this on the ARD discussion group and did not get a reply.
    I use ARD, latest version, all updates, to remotely control about 9 machines across two locations that are linked by a pair of NetGear FVS124G routers connected by fulltime VPN. All of the Macs are running 10.5.4, all have the latest updates across the board, as do the single OSX servers in each location both of which are running OSX 10.5.4 server with current updates.
    I can access all of the workstations using ARD without difficulty, both locally and across the VPN.
    The servers will not authenticate, returning the message, "Authentication failed to ....... Server"
    The message seems straightforward enough, its cause more obscure, and I get the same message on each of the two servers.
    The login I am attempting to use in ARD is an administrator account, sharing on the servers is set to allow full access in the sharing setting in System Preferences in both servers, and I have no trouble using either the server preferences or server admin tools to control the two servers.
    It is just that ARD won't allow the login that works with either local login or the server tools. I am able to login to each server with SSH without difficulty.
    In checking the two servers, I am surprised to see them both listed in ARD info page as OSX 10.4.11 clients (which they clearly are not), whereas they are both listed (accurately) as running the current ARD client.
    I suspect something fairly simple in my configuration of the two servers that I am overlooking since I can log into all the OSX workstations at either location from ARD at either location.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you for your response. As I think I understand what you are saying, you do not use the "all users" setting for remote access in the server settings, and then allow ARD to provide remote control.
    I have used the all users setting for ARD, and will try changing this on the servers. The other settings are already as you suggest.
    Thanks and will see if this works....

  • Cannot copy files from my work Mac to my PowerBook at home using ARD 3.1

    I'm having an issue copying files from my work Mac to my PowerBook at home using ARD 3.1. Both machines are running OS 10.4.10 and have all of the available updates have been applied. When I connect to the Mac at work using ARD, I can see everything without any problems. However, when I attempt to copy a file onto my PowerBook desktop, I lose my connection to it and ARD tries to re-establish a connection and just keep looping. I'm stumped as to why this keeps happening. When I try the above from work using my PowerBook, there are no problems. Could this problem be related to my DSL Carrier (Verizon). Anyone have any ideas? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi Jeff thanks for that, the only problem is I cant update any of the system software at work
    And I cant just copy the folders over and use my iPod as a hard drive to take them home and put them on my iTunes as the file names on some tracks are to long

  • Upgrading to Leopard using ARD

    Because I have an iMac with no keyboard or mouse, I control using Apple Remote Desktop 3.2. The iMac is currently running OS 10.4.11 and I would like to upgrade it to Leopard.
    Can I upgrade to Leopard using ARD? I thought about doing the Archive Install & Preserve User Settings, but I wasn't sure if I would lose the ARD connection when I boot off the Leopard DVD.
    Has anyone had experiences upgrading the OS using ARD and have recommendations on how to proceed?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

  • How to update App Store apps using ARD?

    I run a tech desk for a middle school with over 400 computers. I can use ARD to update all Apple OS updates, but cannot update all apps from the Apple App Store. So far, I can only see a method to do this at each individual computers, which is time consuming and can lead to errors. Is there a method, besides running Apple Server, that Apple Remote Desktop can perform updates for Apple Store apps?

    Hi,
    I did develop an Applescript that downloaded outstanding updates from the Mac App store, then placed it on the host machine and Launched it from ARD.
    Worked fine when there was only one update, then it broke when there were two as the buttons moved around. I eveltually gave up as it was too much work trying to figure it for my small number of 'puters.

  • Moved iTunes library to an ext hard drive to make space on my int drive... Followed steps from apple.  Now I cannot access my music... It says: "File could not be used because the original file cannot be found.  Would you like to locate it?"

    Moved iTunes library to an ext hard drive to make space on my int drive... Followed steps from apple.  Now I cannot access my music... It says: "File could not be used because the original file cannot be found.  Would you like to locate it?"
    I moved my iTunes library to my external hard drive some time ago and I followed the directions listed here on the apple support page.  It did copy my library and now is on my hard drive... I can open iTunes and use it to sync all of my devices but I would like to play my music... I can see all of my music files but can not play them if I click on an album or song it says the following:  "(file name) could not be used because the original file cannot be found.  Would you like to locate it?"  I click locate but do not know where to go from there?  I need a way to access all files and not to hunt down one at a time on my hard drive... I am pretty sure I deleted the original library to make space on my internal drive which was the reason for moving it.  I have tried and tried to fix it and do not have a lot of time to do so with a one and two year old at my house who do not like it whenI sit down at my computer.  What to do???  Any help is much appreciated!!!

    See Make a split library portable. Move all of the bits of the library together in the the correct shape and it should work. Or undo exactly what you did and then start over.
    If you're a former Windows user don't try merging two folders together that have the same name by dropping one into the same folders as the other, as that goes badly on a Mac.

  • Can I use ARD to control my mac with Back to my Mac service?

    Can I use ARD to control my mac with Back to my Mac service?
    The with Back to my Mac service on you see your mac in the Shared column, hit Share Screen & your good - on ARD I don't see my remote Mac listed anywhere in that program.
    Thanks

    ARD, to the best of my knowledge, does not work via Back To My Mac. Certainly it's not an direct or obvious feature, though I can't say that there might not be a workaround I've not heard of.

  • Upgrade clients to OS 10.4.5 using ARD

    I am having trouble sending out OS 10.4.5 to client computers(emacs and imacs) using ARD 2.2
    They are currently running OS 10.4.2.
    How can I get this working. I've downloaded 10.4.5 to the admin computer then manage>install packages
    Mac OSXUpdCombo10.4.5PPC.pkg
    restart target computer after installation
    then it fails.
    please help

    how many are you trying this on at the same time? does it work if you do one by itself?
    alternatively, you can send this unix command to install all available packages:

  • Help - "Acrobat is being used by another application and cannot open PDF files until the other application is closed."

    Hello,
    I searched this site and google for this error terminology and come up dry.  I support a user who has been for years using Acrobat 5 (yes, I know...) to read files in a client DB program, as well as other PDF files on their PC.  In the last week or so, they have started gatting this error "Acrobat is being used by another application and cannot open PDF files until the other application is closed." any time they attempt to open a PDF file attached to an email (via Outlook).
    It is my understanding that they cannot upgrade to a newer version of Acrobat because of limitations of their client software, but had not previously had any issues viewing PDF notes from the DB, and PDF attachments in their email.
    I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, as well as tried using Adobe Reader 7 & 9 in conjunction with Acrobat to try to get around this issue, but have not been successful.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Jesse

    I don't have an answer to your technical problem. The product I assume is Acrobat that you are talking about (based on the post title), Adobe is the company name. This is a good place to ask questions on Acrobat if folks can figure out what you are talking about. They will ask for the product version number (like AA9.3.3), operating system, and other applications if appropriate. Also, just what you are doing that generates the message.
    As for Adobe, you are not likely to get an answer from them here in the user forum. You will be lucky if you can get an answer if you can contact them and not be on hold for more than an hour (sorry, this is why a lot of folks end up in the forum).
    So, to help others try to answer your question, what are the products and versions involved? What OS? What are you doing when the message comes up.

  • Cannot reinstate catalog after returning PC (Windows 7) to factory settings (because of worm infection). Catalog was backed up on external drive but not using PSE backup facility. Cannot find and *.tly file. Is this hopeless?

    Cannot reinstate catalog after returning PC (Windows 7) to factory settings (because of worm infection). Catalog was backed up on external drive but not using PSE backup facility. Cannot find and *.tly file. Is this hopeless?

    If you made backups of all of your photos and your catalog file using some third-party method (i.e. not using the PSE catalog backup command), then you should be able to restore everything.
    Step 1. Put the photos in the EXACT SAME LOCATION as before. For example, if they were in subfolders of C:\Users\<username>\Documents, then they must go into the exact same subfolders of C:\Users\<username>\Documents.
    Step 2. Move the catalog file to wherever you want it to be, and then double-click on it.
