Does Link in Subscription Point to Live or Snapshot?

This should be an easy one...

You get an email that contains a link to a report. The email was sent automatically as part of a subscription.

Does that link point to a snapshot that was taken when the report was run, or does clicking the link cause the report to re-run altogether?

Thanks,
Dan

Hello Dan,

The link will always point to the current report. For instance, if you have an email subscription that goes out at 6am daily, and today at 8am, you open the report from the link in today's and yesterday's email, they both will take you to the most current report.

As for if it will be re-run, that depends on how you have the execution on the report setup. Whether it is 'Always run this report with the most recent data' or 'Render this report from a report execution snapshot' will determine this.

Hope this helps.

Hi Jarret,

That's exactly what I needed to know.

Thanks so much!

Does Disk space affect Database performance

We have aroud 12 databases running on a live production server which is
segmented
into 3 physical drives.
The E drive is where data and logs are stored.
We have implemented a back up strategy over the past week. As a result , the
E
drive has shrunk in size.
Its a total of 135 GB but has 125 MB free.
Consequently we have noticed that various VB6 and MS Access applications are
suffering from slow performance.
But..the apps are merely querying data and bringing it back to the client.
My question is the lack of disk space affecting performance?
The lack of disk space will cause performance problems, iirc the MS
recommendation is to not exceed about 80% capacity on a disk/disk set.
Not sure what you mean by backing up causing the disk to shrink in
size? Also not a good idea to have log and data files on the same
physical drive.
