Is it possible to move RRDI/Insight to another server during migration?

In a test environment I migrated RRDI 1.0.2 on Machine A to Insight 1.1 on Machine B.  The DW and RICM content store db stayed on the same system.  Is this possible?

I got Cognos to come up fine but when I go into Configuration -> Data Source Connection and test the RIDW connection with the existing signon I get Status = Failed with no message.


Just curious if this is even possible.

The connection depends on vendor db which you could connect it. Just like DB2, you must catalog it on machine B.
From tech perspective, your scenario is possible. But it is not IBM support and advised scenario, so there is no success experience could help you.

Thanks..I actually just figured it out about 10 minutes ago. It was because the remote database wasn't cataloged.  Surprised there wasn't an error that reflected that in the logs or Cognos app.

The migration to a new machine did work, but on Production we're not going to switch machines...this was just test.
