About the export package
You must create reporting export packages for each InForm study being migrated to the InForm 6.3.1.1 release while your current InForm and Cognos environments are still active. The export packages contain:
- A study folder.
- An operational package (<trialname> InForm Trial Management).
- A clinical package (<trialname> Clinical) from the Cognos Public Folders.
You will import these packages into the Cognos Analytics 11 Reporting environment after you install the InForm 6.3.1.1 software and the Cognos Analytics 11 Reporting software.
Because the current Cognos environment remains intact until the Cognos Analytics 11 Reporting environment is active, there is no need to back up any files on the Cognos server except for the export packages.
Note: Because the current Cognos environment may remain intact while the Cognos Analytics 11 Reporting environment is being tested, it is good practice to remove or disable scheduled reports in the current environment prior to the migration.
