DPM uses Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services as the basis for its reporting functionality.
SQL Server Reporting Services includes a Report Manager tool that is not installed during DPM
installation. Because settings made through Report Manager can create conflicts with DPM
settings, we recommend that you do not install the Report Manager tool that is included with
SQL Server Reporting Services.
