Microsoft 4.5.X Manual Do Utilizador

Management reports are divided into two classes: “Active” and “Inactive” reports. Active
reports are in the queue to be run when the task process runs; Inactive reports will never be
run unless they are transferred into the “Active” list. You can switch a task from Inactive to
Active status by clicking the [

Activate] link next to its name. Similarly, you can switch a task

from Active to Inactive status by clicking on the [

Deactivate] link next to its name.

Each scheduled task has an interval at which it runs, a set of criteria it scans for, and a set of
user groups to scan. All task settings can be found by clicking the task’s [

Edit] link.

Adding Reports

Adding a report is as easy as entering the new report name, selecting the report type, and
clicking the “Add Task” button. The report type will determine how the report selects users
from its target groups:

•

“Password expiration” – Select this report type to search for accounts with
passwords due to expire in the specified number of days.  This scan searches for
accounts whose passwords will be expired by the primary domain controller’s password
policy.  The date used for calculating the time until expiration in the task is drawn from
the clock on the machine running ARCWeb, NOT the domain controller.  Thus, any
inconsistencies in the system clocks between the primary domain controller and the
machine running ARCWeb could cause inaccuracies in detecting the appropriate users.

•

“Self Reset Configuration” – Select this report type to search for users who have not
completed enrollment in the self-service verification questions.
