Integrating : Integrating with IBM Cognos : The ODS database : Generating the ODS schema : The XML configuration file
  
The XML configuration file
The options that you select in the SA Schema Generator are stored in an XML configuration file. This file contains the server type, server name, encyclopedia name, ODS database name, and the ODS authentication type information that the SA Data Retriever needs to get the encyclopedia data. Whether the data is retrieved manually from a command line option, or scheduled via the Windows Task Scheduler, the information that the SA Data Retriever needs to get encyclopedia data is obtained from the XML configuration file.
By default, that file is created in the 'Conf' folder in the System Architect - Cognos Bridge installation folder:
C:\Program Files\UNICOM Systems\System Architect Suite\SA-Cognos
You can change the folder to which the file is created by configuring the SASchemaGenerator.exe.config file.
The values stored in the configuration file are shown in the sample below:
<Datajob>
<RestSQLServer>SERVERNAME\IBM</RestSQLServer>
<Encyclopedia>Samples</Encyclopedia>
<ODSDatabaseType>SQL</ODSDatabaseType>
<ODSServer>SERVERNAME\IBM</ODSServer>
<ODSDatabase>Samples_Cognos</ODSDatabase>
<ODSAuthenticationType>IntegratedWindows</ODSAuthenticationType>
</Datajob>
