About the Siebel Reports Server
In a UNIX environment, the Siebel Reports Server consists of the following components:
- Actuate e.Reporting Server. Generates and manages live report documents. Actuate e.Reporting Server also contains the Report Encyclopedia, a shared repository that stores report items along with related data, such as access privileges and request queues.
- Actuate Management Console. Manages one or more Actuate e.Reporting Servers and Report Encyclopedias. Actuate Management Console also controls user privileges.
The Actuate Management Console replaces the Actuate Administrator Desktop.
- Actuate Active Portal. Provides access to the Siebel Reports Server from the World Wide Web using JavaScript and JavaTM Server Page (JSP) tags. Using Actuate Active Portal, you can access and work with reports through any Web browser.
The Actuate Active Portal replaces the Actuate ReportCast.
For more information about these Actuate products, see the Siebel eBusiness Third-Party Bookshelf.
- Siebel Report Server Access. A Siebel application integration component that provides access to Siebel data for report generation. This component also includes Siebel report executables, Siebel Active Portal templates, and Active Portal security extension library.
NOTE: In addition to these components, the administrator may also install Actuate e.Report Designer Professional and (optionally) Actuate e.Report Designer in a Windows environment.
The description of these components, their installation, and usage is available in Installing the Siebel Reports Server for Microsoft Windows.
