SBS2008 Report E-mail Delay
|
From: Printman2000 on 16 May 2010 09:13 I have a daily report running on my SBS2008 machine. It is e-mailed to an external e-mail address and it send just fine. However, I have the report generated at 6:00am daily and I have the check box "E-mail this report at it's scheduled time" checked. Does that mean it should e-mail the report as soon as it is generated? Or is there somewhere else to pick the e-mail time? The time stamp on the e-mail has ranged from 6:11am all the way until 7:30am. I would really like it to send right after it generates. Any way I can make it?
From: Cliff Galiher - MVP on 16 May 2010 10:10 It *is* sending when it is generated. Unfortunately the length of time it takes to generate the report in 2008 leaves something to be desired. Just one of those pieces that wasn't quite as optimized as we would have liked when it left the oven... -Cliff "Printman2000" <printman2000(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:83d95923-0b54-47e1-8ca0-1127713d9cfb(a)z17g2000vbd.googlegroups.com... > I have a daily report running on my SBS2008 machine.

Some of the biggest performance issues were actually squashed in a recent update rollup. With 2008 RTM, some reports wouldn't run because they took too long and collided with themselves. MS may be able to get some more improvements out of the current engine, but as with any "future" releases...even update/patch releases...the future is unwritten. No gaurantees one way or the other. -Cliff "Craig Mashburn" <scraigmashburn(a)gmail.com> wrote in message news:e249e436-9ce8-4610-ac48-d212b1f18eba(a)o15g2000vbb.googlegroups.com... > On May 16, 9:16 am, Craig Mashburn <scraigmashb...(a)gmail.com> wrote: >> You know, after I posted I manually ran the report and it has been >> running for at least 45 minutes so far and it is still not complete. >> >> So that does indeed seem to be the problem.
