OpsMgr 2007 R2 RC and Exchange 2007 Reports

Question
-
Hi
I have an OpsMgr 2007 RC POC infrastructure setup with all components hosted
on one server and all is functioning ok except for the Exchange 2007 reports.
I have import the latest exchange management pack and the reports however
only two reports render in the Exchange folder in the reporting tab. However
when I go to the same folder in the SRS view i.e. http://server/reports I can
see the reports but only when I select detailed view in the SRS view. The
two reports that render in the OpsMgr console have corresponding rpdl files
the ones that are missing do not. I suspect this is causing the problem but
have no idea how to resolve. All other management packs reports are fine and
render correctly in SRS and the OpsMgr console.
I'm getting the following on a server restart or after deleting the Exchange Reports folder and importing the management pack again.
Data Warehouse failed to deploy reports for a management pack to SQL
Reporting Services Server. Failed to deploy reporting component to the SQL
Server Reporting Services server. The operation will be retried. Exception
'SoapException': System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: The Label

Ideas ?

It is an issue between the Exchange 2007 Reports and SQL 2008, if SQL 2005 is used as the reporting server then the reports will deploy with no issues. There currently is no hotfix available and no ETA on when the issue will be resolved.
Check out http://blogs.technet.com/momteam/archive/2008/10/23/creating-exchange-2007-availability-reports-using-the-service-level-dashboard-solution-accelerator-and-the-exchange-2007-management-pack.aspx for an alternative method to create availability reports for the Exchange 2007 Converted MP.
Please note Operations Manager R2 has a built-in Service Level Objects under Authoring->Management Pack Objects->Service Level Agreements. You should use these to setup your availability reports for R2 instead of installing the Solution.- Proposed as answer by S. Halsey Wednesday, May 27, 2009 4:36 PM

Are you using the Converted Exchange 2007 MP, 6461 and SQL 2008?
There is an issue where one of the Exchange 2007 Reports will not load into SQL 2008, this currently under investigation.
Unfortunately you will not be able to deploy the Exchange 2007 Reports to your Reporting server until a fix is avialable.- Proposed as answer by S. Halsey Wednesday, May 27, 2009 4:14 PM

Seriously... So the original Exchange 2007 report don't work with RC of R2 .. The Beta release of the Exchange Management Pack for R2 doesn't work with RC release. What are clients to do about reporting for exchange environments ??. Is there an eta on a Hotfix.
