Long time ago, we installed C8.4 Reporting version and couldn't get to Event Studio.
Got rid of it, installed C8.4 BI server and Event Studio was there...
Hi there
There used to be a site when Cognos was Cognos that showed the differences
Basically, it comes down to the license agreement you have with IBM Cognos
If you install any Cognos Server level components you will always see the 3 major components for installation, that being
Gateway, Application Tier and Content Manager.
The difference between install packages is based on what you have paid for
E.g. IBM Cognos Business Intelligence Administrator
This is the BI Server components, Report, Analysis, and Query Studio's and Event Studio
If however, you only purchased IBM Cognos and Reporting you would once installed only see
BI Server Components and Report Studio. To make matters more complex, Report Studio would only appear as either Professional or Express depending on your license agreement.
I'd suggest speaking to you friendly IBM Cognos Account Manager to get the new licensing agreements to understand what you need to download to meet your business needs
