Configuring IBM® Cognos® Framework Manager connections

Configure Framework Manager connection

You configure Framework Manager to point to the server on which you publish your content. If you want to publish content to another server, you must change these settings to point to the new server.

For information about configuring Framework Manager connections, see http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSEKCU_1.1.0.3/com.ibm.psc.doc_1.1.0.3/tcr_original/ttcr_configure_frameworkmgr.html.

Configure Framework Manager Oracle connection

To configure the Framework Manager Oracle connection:

• Add Oracle to your Windows path. For example, C:\oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin.
• Wireless users must add tcraccess to the tnsnames.ora file that is in C:\appl\oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin. Edit the tnsnames.ora file and add the following lines to the file:

  VTDB =
  (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = TNPM_VIRTUO_DATABASE_HOST)(PORT = 1521))
      )
      (CONNECT_DATA =
        (SERVICE_NAME = vtdb)
      )
    )
  
   tcraccess =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS_LIST =
        (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = TNPM_VIRTUO_DATABASE_HOST)(PORT = 1521))
      )
      (CONNECT_DATA =
        (SERVICE_NAME = vtdb)
      )
    )

  Where TNPM_VIRTUO_DATABASE_HOST is the Tivoli® Netcool® Performance Manager - Wireless Component database server host name or IP address.
