You are not supposed to double post. Looks like you asked the same question here: http://www.cognoise.com/index.php/topic,29828.0.html

The short answer is: everything.

You didn't give very much detail about what things you have in your environment which makes it difficult to provide a comprehensive list. Off the top of my head I'd suggest:
report content, layout, performance
workspaces
event studio events
cube builds
data sources
security

I don't think either of those factors affect what I responded originally. You'd just need to ensure that everything is compatible with the version of Cognos you are upgrading to. You can google Cognos Supported Environments to find that information.

I gave you a checklist of things you need to test in my earlier post. What is unclear to you? You need to be familiar with what artifacts (reports, events, workspaces, cube builds, etc.) that are currently running under 10.2.1 and be sure they behave the same under 10.2.2.

Actually Lynn doesn't *need* to answer any of your questions. She's trying to help you out of the goodness of her heart - just like all responders in this forum. This is not a support desk with SLAs - people respond out of a desire to help others. They respond in their own time and of their own free will. Demanding someone gives you a comprehensive detailed answer like this is rude, pushy behaviour, and is not acceptable. Please read the Forum Etiquette post here (http://www.cognoise.com/index.php/topic,24030.0.html) and become familiar with what is acceptable and what is not acceptable on Cognoise. You cannot dictate to other forum members in the way you are doing here.

Have you looked at the Cognos Upgrade Central site? https://www-01.ibm.com/software/analytics/cognos/customercenter/upgrade.html

If you follow the link "Upgrading to IBM Cognos Business Intelligence" you will find a wealth of detail on things you need for a successful upgrade. There. I didn't *need* to give you an answer, but as a fellow Cognos user I'm doing my best to help you. I hope that satisfies the demand you made above.

MF.
