With Rational Insight the Cognos Version 10.2.1 FP2 is delivered.
We would like to use some functionality in area of active reporting, which is delivered in Cognos V.10.2.1.1 FP3.

Can I do this without breaking RRDI and ETL functionality?

Hello Guido,

I'm not sure if this is a tested scenario (= not supported).
Insight delivers some customizations on top of the standard Cognos installation that might be undone by applying a Cognos Fix Pack, so there's a risk involved in the operation, as I've heard of some fix packs breaking some Insight functions.

In general, should you want to try it anyway (better on a test environment), it's important to consider that you need to rebuild and redeploy the application EAR file as the Cognos fix itself only updates the product installation.
The high level steps are:
  • uninstall the cognos application from WAS console
  • Delete the old ear file: [Insight Installation Folder]/cognos/p2pd.ear
  • Rerun the setup and select next up to "Build and Deploy Reporting Components" where you redo the Deploy action

Best Regards,

Francesco Chiossi
