Make sure you upgrade to Cognos 8 MR2.

Here is the link to download Cognos 8 Planning from the Cognos support website.  There are separate downloads for Analyst and Contributor as well as a hotfix to C8 BI MR2 that you need in order for CDS to work. 

The url will prompt you to log on to the Cognos support web site in order to download the software.

Let me know if anyone has any questions.

Any Unicode plans for Contributor Data Server?  :)
Currently it doesn't display cyrillic characters.
