Hi all,
I have one doubt that how to change the connection from development server to testing server.
Actually I developed the report in development server its working fine now I want test in Testing server how can I do that if any body knows let me know
Thanks in advance
Two / three possibilties:
1. There is one Cognos instance, which means changing the properties of the sign-on of the connection (every time again
1b. Create an additional sign-on for the connection and point to the other server/database
2. There are 2 Cognos instances. This would require exporting the report(s) along with the package (as .zip) and importing them from deployment folder to the other instance..
Another option: Copy - Paste report.
This technique assumes working data source packages in Prod and Dev.
Open the report in Report Studio on Server 1.
Tools Menu - "Copy Report to Clipboard".
Open Report Studio with a new report on Server 2
Tools - "Open report from Clipboard".
Save As.
