Finding Transformer 10.2.2 Fix Pack 3 to download

[Penny]

Hello

We are running Cognos 10.2.2 FP3.  I am getting ready to install Transformer, and found it (Transformer 10.2.2) on the IBM website easily enough, however I am having trouble finding the fix pack for transformer.

Please if you have time, can you point me in the right direction?

Thank-you in advance.

I see now an older post by MFGF that explains 32 vs 64 fixpacks.  So I am looking for something that doesn't exist!  However, if I already have a fixpack installed and now want to install 32-bit Transformer, will I need to re-apply the 32-bit fixpack? 

Yep. The only distinction is 32 vs 64 bit. If you install a 32-bit Windows BI server instance then install FM on the same server, FM gets installed in the same folder structure as the BI server components, and it all gets patched by one 32-bit fix pack. IBM don't distinguish between any of the installed components. The fix pack will work for any/all installed combinations of Framework Manager/Cube Designer/Transformer/PowerPlay Client/Metric Designer/BI Server (32-bit)/Metrics Server (32-bit)/PowerPlay Server (32-bit)/Data Manager (32-bit)/Samples (32-bit)/SDK (32-bit)/DQA (32-bit). These would all install in the same folder structure.

Thanks

Is your Cognos server 64-bit or 32-bit? As you're running 10.2.2 I'd assume your server instance must be 64-bit? Assuming you already have FP3 installed for your 64-bit server, you just need to install Transformer 10.2.2, then install the 10.2.2 32-bit FP3 over the top of this.

Cheers!
