Title: Data Sources and Packages
Post by: jguevin on 17 Jul 2008 12:37:21 PM
Is there a way to generate a list of all the data sources used in Cognos Connection and the packages that are associated with them?  Is this something I could possibly get out of the audit database or possibly through Framework Mgr??  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks
Jeff

Id expect its capable with the SDK. You could write your own script.  I'm interested to hear what people reply with.

I don't believe you can get this info. from the audit DB or FM.

You could take the xml files from FM or from an export from Cognos connection, open it in a editor and perform a search. Use a known package and datasource to find out what you need to look for and then perform a larger search. Haven't tried it but i guess it should work.
