Exporting LDAP information to Cognos TM1

You can export LDAP information to IBM® Cognos® TM1®.

Procedure

  1. Click Export.

    ETLDAP moves the records you retrieved from the LDAP directory into TM1, and logs the data export activity in a log file.

    Note: You can open the log before you export records to track the export progress.
  2. Click View, Log to open the Session Log.

    The Session Log shows a summary of the LDAP users that ETLDAP exported and created in Cognos TM1. ETLDAP randomly generates the Cognos TM1 user passwords and adds them to the Cognos TM1 database.

    Note: If you use Integrated Login, Cognos TM1 users do not use the Cognos TM1 passwords, and you do not have to coordinate passwords between Cognos TM1 and Microsoft Windows. If you do not use Integrated Login, Cognos TM1 users must change their password during their first login session. For details, see Integrated login.
