Do i need BI 8 installed to use Framework

[dubs]

Hi All,

been trying to get Framework working but have yet to use Cognos BI.  Therefore i don't know if it is a pre-requisite to use FM.  I have Configure which ive used to start a Cognos Service but am having issues getting Framework to work and am wondering if i should have Cognos BI fully installed and configured first and then use Configure to get FM working.

Cheers

dubs,

you need to have BI server and content manager installed in your environment before the FM installation.

in simple terms, you need content manager to store the published model from FM

best of luck for the installation

Correction - you need a BI environment but it doesn't have to be on the same machine as Framework Manager.
