•On UNIX:/opt/omni/java

Access the \bin\WebReporting.html (Windows systems) or the /bin/webreporting.html (UNIX systems) file from the copied java folder in a browser to display the Data Protector reporting. Make this file available to the users of the web reporting in the full URL form. For example, you can put a link to this file from your intranet site.

To change the password for the Data Protector web reporting and notifications interface, do the following:

1.In the Data Protector Manager, switch to the Users context.

2.Choose Action, Set Web User Password. A dialog box appears, where you change the password.

Any user using web reporting and notifications interface will have to provide this password to browse the Data Protector reports on the web.
