Creating a Publish Specification to Publish All PowerCubes in the Model

Use this method to publish all cubes in the model.

You create the publish specification from the Run menu in Cognos® Transformer, and publish the cube from the command line.

Procedure

  1. From the Run menu, click Create a publish specification for all cubes.
  2. In the File name box, type the name for the publish specification file, and save the file.
  3. Open the saved publish specification file in an XML editor, and enter the additional values for the publish parameters for all the cubes in the model.

    Tips

    • If you defined publish parameters on the Data Source and Package tabs of the PowerCube property sheet, those values will appear in the publish specification file.
    • When you disable cube publishing on the Processing tab of the PowerCube property sheet, the cube will not be included in the publish specification file.
  4. Save the file.
