They are stored on the Repository server under the following location.

C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Enterprise 12.0\FileStore\Input

But if you need the path in the Infoview then you can just search the WebI report and you will get the path. Then do a Save As for that report in your favorites to take the backup.

Hello Arul,

All the reports and universes are stored in Input file repository server (IFS).

To check the location of IFS go to CMC and go to server there you will find InputFileRepository go to properties and find File Store Directory, This is the root path of your input file repository.

no go to particular universe right click and go to Properties and check

File Name:frs://Input/a_100/007/145/9504612/univese.unv

Note:- where input is your input file repository path

Arul,

There is no specific location for Universes. The following blog could help you to understand How reports and universes are organized in File repository servers.
