I have created one data sources and one data model for sql server 2008 reporting servies. I used to deploy them to report server using visual studio. This time, I can't use visual studio to deploy them. Is there any other way to deploy or publish report data model (.smdl file) to report server ? thanks and I need it urgent I found link below http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dd504761.aspx I don't know if this is one way to do it. and I don't know what is "Configuration Manager" and I can't find its folder "%programfiles%\Microsoft Configuration Manager\AdminUI\XmlStorage\Other" in this docs. thanks Gary

Hi Gary, You can use Report Manager. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms157147.aspx Thanks. Thanks. Igor -Remember to mark as an answer if this post has helped you.

Hi Gray, The link you posted is used for System Center Configuration Manager, which is not available in this scenario. In order to deploy a report model to a report server, we can use the SQL Server Reporting Services(SSRS) web services. Below is a similar thread for your reference: http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlreportingservices/thread/c117f31b-e5f7-47c9-b229-c1a75de7f64e Or, please use the report builder to deploy the report model. For more information, please see: ReportingService2005.CreateModel Method: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/reportservice2005.reportingservice2005.createmodel.aspx If there is anything unclear, please feel free to ask.
