Running the report data synchronization utility

After we configure the utility, we can start the synchronization process.

• Configure IBM Security Identity Manager report data synchronization utility.
• Access the folder in which you extracted the utility.

To run the report data synchronization utility, complete these steps:

1. Run one of the following commands:

   Microsoft Windows platforms

   SyncData.cmd [-JAVA_HOME java_home_value] 

   For example, SyncData.cmd -JAVA_HOME "C:\Program Files\IBM\Java60"

   UNIX or Linux platforms

   ./SyncData.sh [-JAVA_HOME java_home_value] 

   For example, ./SyncData.sh -JAVA_HOME /opt/IBM/Java60

   where, -JAVA_HOME is an optional argument that specifies the location of the Java™ runtime environment. See Table 1 for specifying the location of the Java runtime environment.

   If the -JAVA_HOME argument is	IBM Security Identity Manager
   Specified	Uses the corresponding Java runtime environment.
   Not specified, and The -JAVA_HOME operating system environment variable contains a value.	Uses the Java runtime environment corresponding to the -JAVA_HOME operating system environment variable.
   Not specified, and The -JAVA_HOME operating system environment variable either does not exist or does not contain a value.	Reports a failure for the report data synchronization utility.

2. If you encounter any problem while running the report data synchronization utility, see the SyncData.log file. This log file is created in the directory where you extracted the utility.
