Series 7 Upfront Changes - speedbumps

[cramee]

We're working on upgrading from to Series 7. In the previous version of upfront you could copy/paste a cube to multiple newsboxes in a single operation. Series 7 seems to have taken that option away, Unless I am missing something. Has anyone found a work around that would allow you to post cubes to multiple newsboxes at once?
Thanks,
Liz

Hi cramee,

I'm pretty new to Serie 7 by myself, but I think I understand that you have to play with the ObjectStore content directly via an API to all Cognos-Meta-Data.

I think I saw some comments pointing to that in the documentation.

From my experience there is no more batch-operations possible directly in any of the serie 7 tools, but you can access all Meta-Data in the Data-Store.

Since I have no clue about Object-oriented Databases at all, I can't tell you precisely how to manipulate Cognos-Objects that way.

hope it helps Detlef
