I have started looking into the cognos admin activities also lately. I got some requests from developers to change the cognos 8.3 server configuration. The change is about saving the report output to the local shared drive on a per report basis.
Here are the short list of steps we need to do for setting up archive location to save the report outputs.
Following are the things we need to to set up those changes.
1) Change the cognos server configuration --> Set the saving the report output to file system to true and provide an archive base location for saving the report outputs.
2) Change the configuration settings in the cognos connection to set up the file path
Thanks,
Soma
