Question & Answer


Question

How to migrate the audit database contents from Cognos BI to Cognos Analytics?

Answer

You can migrate the audit database contents from Cognos BI to Cognos Analytics by following the steps you would perform for a content store upgrade.

Steps:

1. Stop services on the original environment. Have the DBA back up the existing audit database to be safe.


2. Restore the back up database from step 1 to a new database.
3. Configure the new IBM Cognos Analytics environment to point to the restored database from step 2 and test the connection to be sure it works.
4. Start the services on the new environment.
