Setting Up Reporting in the Windows File Replication Service Management Pack
By default, the FRS Management Pack requires no additional configuration to run reports. If you are having difficulty gathering data within the reports, verify that dependent rules are enabled and that the server computers are members of the appropriate computer groups. Also, the reporting component of MOM relies on a nightly Data Transformation Services (DTS) job to transfer data from the MOM Database to the MOM Reporting database. Therefore, FRS Management Pack data is not available for MOM 2005 reports until after the next nightly DTS job has completed.
Enabling Dependent Rules
To collect the data that is required by reports, the associated processing rules listed in Table 10 must be enabled.
