Running Master Index Command Line Reports (Repository)

Once you have configured the reports, you can run them by either running the batch file provided with the reports or using the Java command.

Caution - The application server must be running with the master index project deployed and enabled in order to generate command line reports.

To Run the Reports Using the Batch File

1. From a command prompt, navigate to the location of the report files.
2. Type the following all on one line:

   ReportClient.bat -f config_file- d output_directory

   where config_file is the name of the report configuration file to use, and output_directory is the location to which the reports will be written. This value overwrites the value specified in the configuration file. If this option is not specified, the configuration file value is used.

   Note - The ReportClient.bat file must reside in the reports home directory at the same level as the lib and config subdirectories in order for the environment variables to be set up correctly.

3. To view the reports, navigate to the location you specified as your output path and open the files in any text editor.

To Run the Reports Using a Java Command

Before You Begin

Before running the reports for the first time, set up the environment variables as described in To Set up the Environment.

1. At the command prompt, type the following all on one line:

   java com.stc.eindex.report.ReportClient- f config_file- d output_directory

   where config_file is the name of the report configuration file to use and output_directory is the location to which the reports will be written. This value overwrites the value specified in the configuration file. If this option is not specified, the configuration file value is used.

   Note - An additional option, -h, can be used to obtain help information for the report client.

2. To view the reports, navigate to the location you specified as your output path and open the files in any text editor.
