Question & Answer
Question
This document explains how to change the 'Welcome' screen in Cognos Analytics to look like the 'Cognos Connection' home screen for Cognos Business Intelligence version 10.
Answer
Steps:
- Launch Cognos 11 Administration console
- Click 'Status' -- >'System'
- Under 'Scorecard' --> 'All Servers' --> click arrow beside System and click 'Set Properties'
- Click the settings tab
- Beside 'Advanced Settings', click edit
- On the first empty space on the 'Parameter' column type portal.disablecc
- In the value column type false
Please note: This value of "false" is case-sensitive. "FALSE" will not work. - Click OK
Wait 60 seconds then type the following URL for your server name and the Cognos port number into a browser to access Cognos Connection: http://yourservername:portnumber/bi/v1/disp
To reverse this behavior, remove the portal.disablecc advanced setting
Please note: This legacy portal is only meant for development purposes by IBM Cognos Administrators to prepare an environment for migration from IBM Cognos 10 to IBM Cognos 11. It should not be displayed to users.
