Migrating Cognos Portlets from IBM Cognos ReportNet 1.1 to IBM Cognos 8

When you upgrade ReportNet 1.1 to IBM Cognos 8, you must update the portlets using the latest portlet package file installed with IBM Cognos 8.

For a WebSphere portal, use the CognosBIPortlets.war file located in the c8_location\cps\ibm\portlets directory .

For SAP Enterprise Portal 6.0, use the com.cognos.cognos.epa file located in the c8_location\cps\sap\package directory .

Importing the new package into the portal creates a new and distinct set of Cognos portlets and resources. The upgraded portlets are not compatible with ReportNet 1.1, and the personalized settings are lost. You must configure and test the new portlets as required for IBM Cognos 8.
