HOW TO
A new utility in Esri Maps for IBM Cognos 6.1 allows administrators to upgrade the map specifications of multiple map-enabled reports in a batch process.
Upgrading the map specification of a report created using an earlier version of Esri Maps for IBM Cognos significantly improves map loading performance for users. A map-enabled report that is not upgraded to the latest version of Esri Maps for IBM Cognos goes through a complete upgrade process each time a user runs it, which results in the map loading slowly.
In earlier releases of Esri Maps for IBM Cognos, upgrading map specifications was a manual process that involved opening and saving one map at a time in Esri Maps Designer. While this manual process is still available, the new upgrade utility in version 6.1 provides a much faster automated process.
Note:
Reports containing custom or unsupported configurations should not be upgraded using this utility.
Note:
Only map-enabled reports created using version 5.0.1 or later can be upgraded.
