What are the special considerations when using OnCommand Insight on Linux?
Applies to
OnCommand Insight
Answer
- The Data Warehouse component of OnCommand Insight when installed on Linux does not have Cognos for the integrated reporting solution. The database would have to be access manually and reporting prepared against it through your own means.
- This is because IBM Cognos is not available on Linux
- Some datasources rely on vendor-provided binaries which are only available on Windows
- For these datasources to be used, they must be situated on a Windows Remote Acquisition Unit(RAU)
- See Datasource Support information for details
- You can mix and match Insight servers, Data Warehouse servers, and Remote Acquisition Units running on Linux and Windows without issue as needed to work around the above limitations if desired.
