5.2 Types of SMT Reports

Two types of reports can be created with the smt-report command:
--local
If the --local option is used, the created report is based only on local SMT data.
--ncc
If the --ncc option is used, the created report is based on Novell Customer Center
data.
If neither --local nor --ncc is used, the type of report is determined by the
forwardRegistration in the /etc/smt.conf configuration file. If the option
is set to true, the report is based on Novell Customer Center data. If it is set to false,
the report is based on local SMT data.
If you are creating a report based on local SMT data and you do not want local data to
be synchronized with the Novell Customer Center at all, use the --nonccsync option
together with --local option.

CVS format) as well as mailed to the defined list of e-mail addresses. Use the following
