INTRODUCTION
This article describes how to move Microsoft Operations Manager (MOM) 2005 Reporting together with the MOM Reporting database to a different computer.



MORE INFORMATION
To move MOM 2005 Reporting together with the MOM 2005 Reporting database to a different computer, follow these steps:  Export the MOM reports by using the Report Utility (RptUtil.exe) command-line tool. This tool is located in the following folder:

%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft System Center Reporting\Reporting\

Run this tool at a command prompt.

Note By default, when you run the RptUtil.exe command without parameters, MOM reports are exported to the C:\MOMReports.xml file.

For more information about how to use RptUtil.exe, see the &quot;Tools Installed at Setup&quot; section of the MOM 2005 Operations Guide. To view this guide, visit the following Web site:
