Scheduling cubes in Cognos 8

[brianknott]

Hi people I'm new to Cognos 8 and I'm looking at migrating existing V7 cubes.  I have built new cubes in Transformer V8 from packages build in FM.  I have then used powerplay studio to create a default view.  My question is now do I schedule the Cubes to refreash automatically each day.  I have looked at the sheduler and that enables me to schedule the reports but does not effect the underlying cube.  The cubes is only published as as datasource to the report.  Is it possible to get the actual cube to show in Cognos connection so I can schedule it.

Thanks in advance

Hi,

No - there is no direct integration between Transformer cube builds and the Cognos 8 scheduler.  It's easiest to create a batch file to run the Transformer cube build then schedule this using the Windows scheduler (at).
