Configuring the Cognos Adapter

Defining a Cognos Adapter Connection

Import Target Server Certificates Into a Java Keystore

You must now import the target server certificates into a local Java keystore.

These instructions assume that a JRE or JDK is in your system PATH.

Open a Windows 

 window.

Change to the directory where the certificates are stored by entering the following commands:

c:

cd \Cognos-Certs

Use the Java keytool utility to import a certificate. The following syntax is used:

keytool -import -file <certificate-filename> -alias <server-name> -keystore Cognos.keystore

For example:

C:\Cognos-Certs>keytool -import -file sdkpubs01.crt -alias sdkpubs01 -keystore Cognos.keystore 

When prompted to create a password for the keystore, enter a password at the prompt. The keystore utility displays 
the certificate information. 

At the 

 prompt, type 

yes and press 

. The certificate is imported into the 

 keystore and the following message displays:

Certificate was added to keystore

Repeat this procedure for each target server.

Navigate to the following folder where the CWA Cognos adapter is installed and create a new directory named 

:

<install dir>\master\services\{0ADEF70E-8EAE-4477-8B50-A248592A0897}\config

If necessary, create a text file named service.props. See 

 for more information 

about configuring polling, output, and log gathering for the Cognos Adapter.

Open the service.props text file and add the following line:

Keystore=c:\\Cognos-Certs\\Cognos.keystore

(Note the use of escaped backslashes for windows directories).

Defining a Cognos Adapter Connection

You must create one or more Cognos connections before CWA can run your Cognos jobs. These connections also must 
be licensed before CWA can use them. A connection is created using the 

 dialog.

From the 

 pane, navigate to 

 to display the 

 pane.

Right-click 

 and select 

 from the context menu.
