Is IBM Cognos truly 64-bit?

What does it mean to run in 64 bit?

The most common understanding is that running on a 64-bit platform will allow your applications to access far more physical memory than what was previously available within the constraints of a 32-bit architecture. In addition, many applications can take advantage of the 64-bit registers to allow for faster and more efficient execution. Of course for an existing 32-bit application to work with these new capabilities it must often be completely rewritten and compiled to utilize these advantages. This can be a very expensive proposition for many software companies and in many cases they will simply rewrite or recompile those components of their code that can be easily ported, at a minimal cost, to true 64-bit architecture. For example, java applications are architecture agnostic meaning that a complied Java program can run in either a 64-bit or 32-bit Java virtual machine (JVM).

CRX-API-0005 An error ocurred at or near the position '0'. The variable named '[AdjRowsReturned]' is invalid Resolution: You might have used the calculated data item in the variable, which needs to be added in the page properties. - Click on the page and go to properties. Make sure you see 'page' on the top of the properties. - Click on properties icon under data section, you'll get pop up icon - Check mark the data item which is used for variable calc.

How can you extract all user information from Cognos Access Manager Namespace Report Utility and create Cognos Report out of it?

The AM_NamespaceReport Utility allows you to extract the namespace to an XML file. 1. Use the AM_NamespaceReport Utility to extract all users from the namespace to an XML file. am_namespacereport -h << host >> -p << port >> -r << basedn >> -n << namespace >> -D << username >> -w << password >> -f all -o << path to filename.xml >> e.g am_namespacereport -h cognoscamsevr -p 4004 -r o=cognos.com –n devcam -D admin -w admin -f all -o c:\temp\usrlst.xml 2. This will extract all user information to an XML file 3. Import the xml file into XLS spread sheet 4. Create ODBC connection using the ms-excel spread sheet driver 5. Create Data Source Connection and proceed creating FM Model & Publish 6. Create Report using Report Studio. 7. Save & Share the report The Access Manager Administration Guide (Appendix A) contains further information on this functionality.
