6.2 Novell Sentinel Reports

Novell Sentinel is integrated with Crystal Reports* to generate and display reports. To run the report templates, you must first configure the location of the Crystal Enterprise Server that publishes reports in the General Options window of the Admin page.

After Novell Sentinel is configured to access the Crystal Enterprise Server, the Analysis page allows administrators to run historical reports. Vulnerability reports are available from the Advisor page. These reports are published on a Web server, they run directly against the database, and they then appear on the Analysis and Advisor pages on the Navigator bar.

For more information on running reports in Novell Sentinel, see the “Analysis Tab” and “Advisor Tab” sections in the Novell Sentinel User’s Guide. For examples of Novell Sentinel provisioning reports, see Section B.2, Novell Sentinel Reports.
