Title: Configure the Lineage Solution
Post by: madhancog on 20 Jul 2011 04:55:28 AM
Hi Gurus,
  I am trying to configure lineage solution in cognos.
  I followed the steps from the book but it is not working,let me know whether i need to do anything in IIS.

Steps
In IBM Cognos Connection, click Launch, IBM Cognos Administration.

On the Status tab, click System.

Click the arrow next to System to display the Actions menu, and then click Set Properties.

Click the Settings tab.

For the Environment category, Metadata Information Service URI, type one of the following values.

If you want to configure the default IBM Cognos 8 lineage solution, type /lineageUIService.

If this value is already specified, click Cancel at the bottom of the page. You do not need to change anything.


If you want to configure IBM Metadata Workbench as your lineage solution, type

/lineageUIService?iis=http://workbench_server_name:9080/workbench/autoLoad.do

where http://workbench_server_name:9080/workbench/autoLoad.do is the URL where IBM Metadata Workbench can be accessed on the network.

workbench_server_name represents the server name where IBM Metadata Workbench is installed.


If you want to configure a custom lineage solution, replace the existing value with the URI that represents your lineage Web interface.

For example, type http://mycompany.com/ourLineageService.cgi


Click OK.[/b]

Thanks
K.M
