What to do next

SSRS on the Combined VCM Collector and Web Server" below.
Installing and Configuring SSRS on the Combined VCM Collector and Web
Server
SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS) is a server-based report generation software system that is
administered using a web interface and used to deliver VCM reports.
Back Up Your SSRS Key
The rskeymgmt utility manages the symmetric keys used by a report server. This utility provides a way to
delete encrypted content that can no longer be used if you cannot recover or apply the key.
Use the Microsoft command-line utility to back up the symmetric key to an encrypted file.
Prerequisites
n See the online Microsoft Support center for details about how to use the rskeymgmt utility.
Procedure
1. On the Collector file system, locate the rskeymgmt.exe utility at c:\Program Files (x86)
\Microsoft SQLServer\100\Tools\Binn or the directory where you installed SQLServer.
2. To copy your SSRS key set to a removable media device and store it in a secure location, open a
command line prompt and run the rskeymgmt.exe utility with the appropriate options.
