Hello all,

Would like to know if cognos has some monitoring and analyzing tool for cognos apps that gather and display information about: performance, usage, reports used, top users, common columns used, tables not used etc.

Thank you!
Maya

Yes, cognos has an audit package that can be installed. It has various reports that track some of this information. There is another one called extended Audit which prived more detailed information.

The Audit package can be downloaded from the IBM site. It will require some installation steps including creating a schema for the Audit Store. You can either search the IBM site or have your Account Manager from IBM send it to you.
