doubts about report deployment

hi all

i have doubts abt report deployment

if i am deploying report then what process exactly happens?

also is any entry made in IIS or is any new file created in IIS?

if i am deploying report on remote server then what process exactly happens?

what r the entries or files that r created on remote server?

plz help me so that i will understand this deployment process very clearly.

waiting for reply.

When you deploy a report to the Report Server it is not storing a file in the webserver. The report is actually stored a binary blob in the reporting services database. This is really cool, because it means that all you have to do is restore your ssrs database if there is a problem.

thanks for helping me in understanding this concept

it is really great.

but i still have some doubt, if i am deleting actual .rdl file of report that i have deployed will report still be executed?

plz reply.

& thanks again

|||Now you've got me confused. How can you delete an .RDL file that's stored inside of a database? If you are deleting the file out of your Report Project, and you have already deployed it. As far as I know it will still be in the Reporting Server database.|||

Note: since the original .RDL file is also stored in the database, you can retrieve the .RDL file from the published report on the report server e.g. in report manager, report properties, edit report definition.
