How to Start Reporting Services Configuration

Reporting Services Configuration tool is used to deploy a Reporting Services installation.
You can run it on a computer that has a local report server instance.
You can also use it to configure remote report server instances
to which you have administrator access.

To start Reporting Services Configuration

1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, and then point to
Configuration Tools.

2. Click Reporting Services Configuration. The Report Server Installation Instance Selection
dialog box appears so that you can select the report server instance you want to configure.

3. In Machine Name, specify the name of the computer on which the report server instance is
installed. The name of the local computer is specified by default, but you can also type the
name of a remote SQL Server instance.

4. If you specify a remote computer, click Find to establish a connection. The report server must
be configured for remote administration in advance. For more information, see Configuring a
Report Server for Remote Administration in SQL Server Books Online.

5. In Instance Name, choose the SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services instance that you want to
configure. Only SQL Server 2005 report server instances appear in the list. You cannot
configure earlier versions of Reporting Services.

6. Click Connect.
