submit ube local on Citrix server

Does anyone know a way to allow a ube to be submitted locally on a Citrix server. I want a user to be able to view a report on screen and not print it unless needed, but can't seem to do it on a Citrix client. Thanks
 
There are no local specs maintained on a Citrix machine; thus, there is no capability to run reports locally on Citrix.
 
Create a new logical datasource by making a copy of LOCAL. Name it something other than LOCAL. Call it FRED if you like, just not LOCAL.

All OneWorld does to eliminate the Data Source "LOCAL" from appearing in the list of available
Data Sources on Terminal Server is generate a SQL statement like this:

SELECT OMDATP, OMSRVR, OMDATB, OMLIB, OMOCM1 FROM SYS7333.F98611 WHERE
( OMOCM1 = 'SVR' AND OMDATP <> 'LOCAL' )

This statement will return all Data Sources except LOCAL. OneWorld does not use code to disallow the processing of UBE's on a Terminal Server, it uses an exclusionary SQL statement.
 
Go to "Logical Data Sources", Select "System - B7333" (or equivalent),
copy "LOCAL" datasource to "LOCAL2" or whatever you want to call it (as long as it in not LOCAL), and have users run their reports against the new LOCAL2 datasource. Report will run locally.

Underneath, when Oneworld is looking for logical datasources, and you are logged on to a Terminal server or Citrix server, it does a <> (Not equal to) for datasource LOCAL. So you have to have an identical logical datasource called something else for it to show up as available.
 
Thanks for the knowledge...it erases the brainwashing that I had received on this matter!
 
Hi Travis,

Another way to achieve what you may want that hasn't been mentioned yet
is to use an OCM mapping to specify that the report will always run
using the LOCAL data source. Then the user is not prompted for the data
source. For all reports, the default is usually a batch server, but you
can specify a different value for particular reports, and for particular
users.

With this solution on a Citrix server, be careful that you choose
suitable reports that run quickly and don't use too many resources (eg:
memory), else you may impact other users.
