Look at the help file for "REPORTS_SERVER environment variable". It refers to "the Reports Servlet (rwservlet) configuration file (rwservlet.properties), as described in "Identifying the Default Reports Server" in the chapter "Configuring OracleAS Reports Services" of the Oracle Application Services Publishing Reports to the Web manual."

I have the same question. That is, how _in runtime_ find the report server name from form?
I need to deploy reports (launched from some form) on different Application Server Unix boxes.
As I understand I should setup some environment variable and read it with tool_env.getvar
There is some info about REPORTS_SERVER environment variable, and I added it to reports.sh script, but it seems that reports server does not pick it up...and, actually I need it to be available from forms.
So, where actually should I place reports server name to read it from forms?

Thanks everybody for your useful advices!
How I did it:
1)In OEM go to forms/environment/default.env/edit
2)Add REP_SERVER variable,set value to the name of reports server on this box
3)Get it in forms with tool_env.getvar('REP_SERVER',l_repser_name)
4)Enjoy:)
