Architectural consideration
• In this tutorial the components are installed in a single server in whichMaximo is already installed on Oracle & WAS and we use the MaximoOracle installation for the Cognos repository and the same HTTP Server (IBM HTTP Server)
• The server is a Windows 2012 server
• The hostname is mx7vm. Username and password used are the default for every product
• The authentication method used for Cognos is MXCSP (authentication via Maximo users)
• The required software packages are located in C:\Users\ibm\Desktop\SW\*
• If you use a different architecture please refer to the following document for details: http://www-01.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg21692347&aid=1

Multi-server architecture
List of the activities for installation in a multi-server environment• Cognos Server
– Install Database or Schema for Content Store (check the Cognos product compatibility report for more detail)
– Install and configure HTTP Server
– Create tablespace and cognos user (grant priviledges)
– Install and configure IBM Cognos BI
– Configure security
• Maximo Server– Create cognos user on Maximo DB (grant read access to Maximo table)
– Configure Maximo integration
• Laptop/Desktop of user that designs new report– Install Oracle client 32 bit / (db2 client)
– Install IBM Cognos Framework
– Publish packages ( only during the first framework installation )

Modify the windows registry (to resolve an error during
the Oracle client Installation)
• Launch the regedit winsows program
• Perform and export (for backup purpose): File -> Export
• Execute the following instructions (see picture in next slides for detailed
instruction):
– In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node create a new key with
name ORACLE

Configure Oracle client listener
• Copy the tnsnames.ora file from the network\admin folder of the Oracle
installation (C:\Oracle\product\12.1.0\dbhome_1\NETWORK\Admin) to
the network/admin folder of the Oracle client installation
(C:\Oracle\product\12.1.0\client_1\NETWORK\admin).
NOTE: if the Oracle client is installed in a server that is different from the
Oracle database ones open the tnsnames.ora file in the network\admin folder
of the Oracle client installation and manually configure hostname and port

3.2 Check database configuration
• Ensure that the parameter for the database instance compatibility level of the content store database is set to 9.0.1 or higher. Check the COMPATIBLE initialization parameter setting by issuing the following SQL statement:
SELECT name, value, description FROM v$parameter WHERE name='compatible';
• Determine if the database is UnicodeSELECT * FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS where parameter = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';
(if the result set returns an NLS_CHARACTERSET that is not Unicode, create a new database and specify AL32UTF8 for the database character set parameters)
NOTE: in the following slide the sample screenshot on how use the SQL Developer tools to perform the required actions
