By default, saving scheduled CABI reports in a different path/folder is disabled. To enable follow the below steps:

1. Log on to the CABI Server 
   
   
2. Navigate to the folder where CABI is installed, the usual path for:
   
   

   Windows: C:\Program Files (x86)\Nimsoft\probes\service\wasp\webapps\cabijs\WEB-INF\applicationContext.xml

    

3. Edit the file applicationContext.xml and search for the following string:
   

   
   <property name="enableSaveToHostFS" value="false"/>

   Change it to true as below:
   
   

   <property name="enableSaveToHostFS" value="true"/>

   Save the file.
   
   
4. For the changes to take effect, restart CABI

 

Now, to save the scheduled JasperServer CABI reports:

1. right click the report you want to schedule, select the option Schedule...
   
   
2. In the new window, click on Create Schedule
   
   
3. In the New Schedule window -> click on Output Options -> Under Output Destination -> Check the Output To Host File System -> provide the path where you would like to save the reports -> Click on Save
