Introducing Quest Reporter : Glossary : F

F
Favorite
A user-configured, ready-to-run version of a report template which already includes scope (selected objects) and output options for the report. Because they already contain the scope and output options, favorites require no user input and can be executed interactively or by the task scheduler.
File system
The file system data source is used to extract configuration information from remote server file systems. When defining data items, the Reporter administrator must identify the file, and the polling characteristics that include: Size, Version, Presence, Access Date, Create Date, or Modify Date.
Forest
One or more domain trees that do not form a contiguous namespace, but share a common schema, configuration, and global catalog.
