Final answer:
To monitor and manage long running RW reports, admins use report monitoring tools or administrative consoles specific to the reporting platform, such as Reporting Services Manager for SSRS. These tools provide dashboards for viewing, managing, and stopping reports that are excessively long-running.
Step-by-step explanation:
To monitor long running RW (Report Writer) reports and provide an admin the ability to stop runs that are taking too long, certain report monitoring tools or administrative consoles can be used depending on the specific software or reporting platform being employed. For instance, in the case of SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), an admin can make use of the Reporting Services Manager webpage to view and manage currently running reports. If using a different platform such as SAP or Oracle, each would have their own monitoring and management tools, like SAP's transaction codes or Oracle's Enterprise Manager.
Most of these tools provide a dashboard or control panel where an admin can see all the reports that are currently running, how long they've been running, and provide functionality to cancel or stop reports that exceed a certain threshold of execution time. However, using these tools usually requires appropriate permissions and expertise to ensure no unintended interruptions occur to important reports.
