Hi there!

Is it possible, to integrate Cognos with HP OpenView, to create reports for the management based on the data provided by HP OpenView?
Do i need additional tools to get this working?

Thanx
Christoph
 
Sorry, maybe i should note, that HP OpenView has a common Oracle database for most of the data...
 
Chris,

As long as OpenView has a true RBDMS or ODBC-accessible database, you should be able to use Cognos tools to derive reports from it. What you need is an OpenView Entity Relational Diagram (ERD) to help you map joins between tables and understand the data structures. You may want to check with HP to see if they can provide this.
