Use Enterprise Vault Reports without installing any EV components one the SQL Server

Hi,

i´m wondering if it´s possible to use Enterprise Vault Reporting without installing the EV Software on the SQL Server.

For my understanding the Software only creates the templates and it´s not realy needed. When i install DA Reports this is also possible from the DA Webconsole without installing any EV components on the sql server.

If i use a shared sql server for EV the installation of some additional software and the update process etc. could be difficult. That´s why i´m looking for this...

    Hi Jakob, :smileyvery-happy:

    EV reporting access the reports through Server Reporting Services Report Manager, probably to use different role models.

    I do not think you can use ev reporting without sql reporting.

    But if you could tell us what informations you need, somone could probably query the EV databases to get you this information.

      Hi CConsult,

      i use querys to get the informations now and it works more or less. But sometimes it´s easier with predefined reports. 

      The Reporting Component is just a configuration for SSRS. I could imagine that there is a way to use them without install the EV configuration manager on the SQL server.
