Recovering Reports

If a report terminates unexpectedly, details of any errors are written to either the event log or the system.log file in your Data directory. If a report persistent attributes, recovery information is saved based on the last CriticalPoint for the report.

Recovery of the report depends on:

If Extend Report Recovery is set to False, normal report recovery is used. Two attempts are made to restart the report, after which recovery information is discarded and the report must be run again from the beginning.

If Extended Report Recovery is set to True, extended report recovery is used. There is no limit on the number of times the report is restarted using the recovery information. The recovery information is deleted when the report terminates successfully, or you can choose to delete the recovery information and run the report from the beginning.

Use the :REP administration command to obtain a list of recoverable reports.
