Hello!
We'd like to make Cognos Connection unavailable during our nightly ETL cycle. We use Cognos 8.3 and the Data Manager product. Ideally, we'd like to have a little splash screen that says "Cognos Connection is Unavailble. Try back later" if the user tries to access Cognos Conenction during our Data Manager job. Does anyone have a straight-forward technique that they could share?
Thanks for your assistance,
Camille
Really simplified...
Replace the index.html or default.htm (depending on your webserver) with the maintenance mesage.
<cognos>\webcontent\index.html
