Software Product Compatibility Reports (SPCR) contain all of a product's compatibility information, including - but not limited to - hardware compatibility, operating system compatibility, software compatibility, and data source compatibility. To access a Cognos Analytics compatibility report, go to the IBM SPCR page and select the version of Cognos Analytics that you are looking for. Or you can access the Supported Software Environments pages for Cognos Analytics releases 11.0.x, 11.1.x, and 11.2.x to find compatibility reports for all supported Cognos Analytics releases.

Answer

If certain software or a version of software is not listed in a Cognos Analytics compatibility report, it is not supported in the selected version of Cognos Analytics. You may choose to upgrade your Cognos Analytics installation to a version that supports the software. Or you can submit an idea in the IDEAS portal and suggest that Cognos Analytics support the software (Product = “Cognos Analytics”, include keyword “Conformance” in the idea name, Component = “Other”). We will evaluate your suggestion and determine if the software can be supported in an upcoming release.
