Limiting access to a single Cognos TM1 server from Cognos TM1 Web

If you want to prevent IBM® Cognos® TM1® Web users from using multi-database support to access other Cognos TM1 servers under the same Admin Server, you can use a different Admin Server to register each Cognos TM1 server.

For example, with this configuration, if you log into Cognos TM1 Web and try to open a Websheet that references another Cognos TM1 server registered under a different Admin Server, the data will not display even if you have the same user name and password for that server.

Tip: If you configure your Cognos TM1 servers to run under separate Admin Servers, but still want to access them from Cognos TM1 Web, Cognos TM1 Architect, or Cognos TM1 Perspectives , you can use the AdminHost parameter. This parameter lets you specify multiple Admin Hosts so users can access any Cognos TM1 servers that are registered with the Admin Servers on the specified hosts.
