I am currently trying to migrate ppx reports from series 7 to cognos 10.2, has anyone done this before using the migration assistant tool in Cognos BI 10.2. If so, please advice.
Thanks.
Hi,
I demoed it a couple of times back in the days of Cognos 8. It seemed pretty straightforward back then. What are you struggling with?

Thanks MFGF, think I might have solved it.
Any chance you could share your solution? It might help others who encounter the same or similar issues.
Cheers!
MF.
Sure I would be more than happy to.
Source Machine A
- Cognos Powerplay Enterprise Server
- Cognos Series 7
Target Machine B
- Cognos 10.2
- IBM Cognos Powerplay Server
In source machine, MIGRATION COMPONENT has to be installed to the version of target environment.
I was trying to migrate from Series 7 to Cognos 10.2, I installed "Series 7 migration tools" in Series 7 machine. This "tool" has to be selected from the installation process while installing IBM Cognos BI Powerplay. So I had to only select the "migration tools" from the installation of IBM Cognos BI Powerplay in the source machine.
Hope this is clear enough.
Perfect! Thanks for sharing.
MF.
