Creating a configuration report using the Report Configuration Tool
You can create a configuration report by using a command prompt when you use the Report
Configuration Tool. By preparing a script file that contains a series of commands and scheduling
a task in Windows to execute the script at regular intervals, you can automate the creation and
the deletion of the configuration report.
Preparing a script file
Before creating the configuration report, you will need to write a series of commands in a script
file. When you run the Report Configuration Tool, the commands in the script files execute
sequentially and then create or deletes a configuration report. See
for a list of commands.
