Setting Up the Sample Audit Reports

You must set up sample audit reports before you can use them.

Before you begin

Create a data source connection to the logging database. The logging database and data source in IBM Cognos Connection must be named Audit.
Follow the procedure Add or Modify a Data Source Connection. For the data source name and database name, enter the name Audit. Confirm that the connection is working.
Set up the Report usage report to create new data source named url_xml and using the URL as the connection string. This data source is only used by the Report usage report.
Import the sample audit reports.
The file IBM_Cognos_Audit.zip is included with your installation and is located at c10_location/webcontent/samples/content.

Copy the file to c10_location/deployment, and then follow the procedure Import the samples to import the sample IBM_Cognos_Audit.zip. In the public folders content list, select the check box for Samples_Audit.

The audit reports reside in the Public Folders area of IBM Cognos Connection.
Run the sample audit reports.
Tip: In IBM Cognos Connection, click Public Folders > Samples_Audit > Audit, and click the audit report that you want to run. The Multi-tenancy reports folder contains the sample reports for a multi-tenant environment.

Depending on the audit report that you select, you are prompted for report criteria.
