Recovering Framework Manager models

[Daljith]

Hi All,

Someone  has deleted Framework Manager models and I am trying to reover it.
I used below steps but the xml mentioned in step 8 is not getting generated. We are using AIX operating system. I rechecked if CQEConfig.xml changes are correct. Its correct. Anyone has faced this kind of issue or any suggestion on how to get the xml file.


Steps :
1. Backup <Cognos_Root_Installation>/configuration/CQEConfig.xml.sample
2. Rename CQEConfig.xml.sample to CQEConfig.xml:
3. Under XML tag : <component name="CQE"> add content :

<section name="General Options">
<entry name="KeepModelXML" value="1" />
</section>

4. Save file and stop Cognos service
5. Rename the directory <Cognos_Root_Installation>/data/cqe/RTModels to "ORIGINAL_RTModels" .
6. Restart the Cognos Service.
7. Launch Cognos Report Studio and create a new report using the package you wish to recover and run it, noting the time.
8. Verify that a new <Cognos_Root_Installation>/data/cqe/RTModels directory has been created and an xml file with a creation time matching the run time of the report exists.

Using Motio you can easily recover the FM model.
