QUESTION:
Is it possible to connect to Cognos TM1 data source from an Intelligence Server running on a Linux/UNIX Machine in Strategy 10.x?
ANSWER:
Currently, it is not possible to connect from an Intelligence Server running on a Linux/UNIX Machine in Strategy 10.x to a TM1 data source directly. This must be done indirectly through a Windows machine running IIS
To create any reports using the TM1 data, user need to establish a connection to the TM1 servers using the TM1 connector. The TM1 connector can only be installed on a Windows machine with IIS. The Intelligence Server needs to only have access to the connector via XMLA URL.
ACTION:
For more details on connecting to TM1 servers refer to the "CONNECTING TO MDX CUBE SOURCES" chapter in the MDX Cube Reporting Guide and the following two Strategy Knowledge Base articles:
