Hi Everyone,

Need Urgent help with this.

We are currently migrating Active directory accounts from one domain to another domain present in a different forest.
Few users have lost access to cognos due to this.
We have around 100 Cognos users.
Can anyone help me with steps for Manual re-mapping of users from older namespace to new namespace?
How to handle CAMID changes in this scenario?

Please suggest the best practices for migrating users from one namespace to another without affecting User's schedules, settings and Content.

Thanks

MFGF

Hi,

Namespace migrations can be a huge challenge - especially if the CAMIDs of the users and groups change. There are tools that can help - for example our site owners BSP have a security migration tool designed for this purpose:

I'm guessing one of the admins will be along shortly - hopefully they see the post and can advise :)

Cheers!

Meep!
