The location of the tm1s.cfg file depends on the type of server
you are using.
- If you are using the IBM® Cognos® Configuration tool to
start and stop your IBM Cognos TM1® servers, you can view the configuration path
for a Cognos TM1 server by clicking the server name in the
Explorer tree of Cognos Configuration.
- If you are running the Cognos
TM1
remote server as a Microsoft
Windows service (Tm1sd.exe), and you used the Cognos
TM1
installation program to install
the server, the system uses the tm1s.cfg file that is located in the server data directory you
specified during installation.
- If you are running the Cognos
TM1
remote server as a Windows
application (Tm1s.exe), you specify the location of the tm1s.cfg file by using the -z parameter in
the command line when you start the server, either from a shortcut or from a command prompt.
For
example, this command specifies that Cognos
TM1
will use the tm1s.cfg file located in the c:\salesdata
directory:
c:\Program
Files\Cognos\TM1\bin\tm1s.exe
-z c:\salesdata
If the -z parameter points to a directory containing spaces, you must enclose the directory in
double quotes. For example, -z "c:\sales data".
- If you are running a Cognos
TM1
server on UNIX, and you used
the Cognos
TM1
installation program to install
the server, the system uses the tm1s.cfg file that is located in the server data directory you
specified during installation.
