NOTE:Reporting and Notification Service (RNS) is deprecated in the current version of Identity Manager, although the Metadirectory engine continues to process RNS functions if you are currently using RNS. Nevertheless, we strongly recommend that you move to Novell® Audit or Novell® Sentinel™ because these auditing and reporting systems expand the functionality provided by RNS and RNS might not be supported in a future release of Identity Manager. For RNS documentation, see the DirXML 1.1a Administration Guide.
