Configuring the active Content Manager

The Content Manager computers must know the location of the content store, the other Content Manager computers, and the database that is used for notification.

Procedure

  1. On the Content Manager computer that you want to designate as the default active Content Manager, start IBM® Cognos® Configuration.
  2. In the Explorer window, click Environment.
  3. In the Properties window, click the value for Content Manager URIs and then click the edit button.
  4. Specify the URIs for the other Content Manager computers:
    • In the Value - Content Manager URIs dialog box, click Add.
    • In the blank row of the table, click and then type the full URI of the Content Manager computer.

      Do not delete the first value in the table. This value identifies the local Content Manager computer and is required.

      Replace the localhost portion of the URI with a host name or IP address. All URI properties must use the the same format: all host names or all IP addresses.

    • Repeat the previous two bulleted steps for each URI to be added.

      You must include all Content Manager URIs in the list.

    • Click OK.
  5. From the File menu, click Save.
