8 Configuring Oracle Reports Services

When you install Oracle Fusion Middleware, Oracle Reports is configured automatically for you. There will likely be adjustments you wish to make to customize your environment, but you will not be required to set up the entire environment, or even most of it.

This chapter is included largely for reference, should you wish to have a better understanding of the default configuration. It lists services-related configuration files and describes in detail the content of most of them. It includes the following main sections:

• Oracle Reports Services Configuration Files

• Reports Server Configuration File

• Oracle Reports Servlet Configuration File

• Oracle Reports Bridge Configuration File

• Network Configuration File

• Configuring the URL Engine

• Entering Proxy Information

• Configuring Reports Server with the Oracle Process Manager and Notification Server and Oracle Enterprise Manager

• Configuring Oracle Reports to Communicate with Oracle BPEL Process Manager

• Optimizing the Deployment of Reports

• Sample system-jazn-data.xml File

• Configuring Reports Managed Server

Another aspect of configuration is the setting of environment variables. These are set for you automatically during installation. For reference, environment variables are described in Appendix B, "Environment Variables".
