Reporting Services Configuration Initialization - Green or Gray

OS: WIN2K3, SQL: 2005 Standard. SP2 - All installs
On my production server, using the Reporting Services Configuration Manager
I'm able to get Reporting service to work OK. I check this by opening a
browser and going to http://<servername>/reports.
My problem is that although Initialization is marked with a check it is
colored Gray. From what I understand, the gray means the report server is
not initialized properly. I have two test machines where Initialization is
colored Green as well as marked with a check. Although I've compared setups
of production and test side by side I am not able to get a Green
Initialization indicator on my production server. I've been looking online
for a solution for quite a while now but no luck.
Any help would be appreciated.On Sep 27, 5:55 pm, "Rodo" <ralvar...@.crihire.com> wrote:

of Reporting Services that does not support a web farm. The initialization
section is only available when multiple reporting services servers are
pointing to the same backend ReportServer database. That way you can manage
the servers that have been initialized against the database.
