Title: Restrict users from scheduling reports during certain hours
Post by: larshs on 12 Aug 2011 05:20:55 AM
Any idea how I can restrict user from scheduling reports between 3am and 6am? During this period a lot of ETL jobs are running loading data and database locks might occur.

I've never tried this, but maybe you could automate disabling the batch report service and the report service in the environment during those hours.

hi there

You can either use an SDK script to disable schedules or upgrade to Cogos 10
