Chapter 6: Configuring Framework Manager After you install Framework Manager on your Windows computer, you configure it so that it works in your reporting environment. Some configuration tasks are optional. You perform them to change the default property values used by Framework Manager. If you install Framework Manager on the same computer as ReportNet, no configuration is required if you • configure your Web server using the default virtual directories • use the default ports • use the default resources • use the default cryptographic settings If the default configuration is suitable, you can test the installation (p. 75). Otherwise, if you want to change the default configuration values additional configuration is required (p. 68). Start Cognos Configuration Use the configuration tool, Cognos Configuration, to configure ReportNet components, or to start and stop ReportNet services. You can run the Cognos Configuration in silent mode, as part of an unattended installation. You can start Cognos Configuration on the last page of the installation wizard.

This ensures that the certificate authority service issues a certificate to the Framework Manager computer. Ensure that the Web server is configured and running. Steps 1. On the computer where you installed Framework Manager, start Cognos Configuration. 2. In the Explorer window, click Environment. Installation and Configuration Guide 67
