Title: Deploy reports from Windows Server to Linux Server
Post by: Sakthi on 15 Jan 2013 01:39:58 PM
Hi Friends,

I have all my reports and packages developed in Windows Server and my client decided to maintain all the environments (Dev, UAT, STG & Prod) to Linux. Can anybody help me out how to move all the reports & packages from windows to Linux.
I tried googling and failed. Your reply would be much helpful for me.

Thanks..

You need to log in as a System Admin user, launch the Cognos Administration console, go to the Configuration tab, select Content Administration on the left hand side, then use the button in the top right corner to create a new export. Select the entire content store, then work though the wizard and run the export. This will create a deployment archive in the deployment folder of your Cognos install. Copy this deployment file to the corresponding deployment folder on your unix machine(s) and from the Admin console (as above) use the new import button.

Cheers!

MF.
