Hello,
I am not sure i understand how it works.
The SQL server and the Application server are at the same domain (no firewalls) but not on the same server.
The reporting are installed on the SQL server.
We only have one domain admin account that is running on "data warehouse report deployment account"
At the reporting configuration manager, it's the correct report link.
At the reporting server i can see that at the :"c:\ProgramFiles\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS10_50.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer" there is a file
called "reportserver", inside this file i can see the FQDN of my primary SCOM Server under "Security" and "Authentication" sections.
Is that why the reporting URL doesn't work when the primary server is down?
Remember - i set the RMS emulator to a different server.
If i need to change that manually then the first Q i have ask is relevant also for SCOM 2012.
Thanks.
