Steps to prepare the Oracle Directory Server

The Oracle Directory Server is required only if you are using Reporting.

To prepare the Oracle Directory Server:

1. Install the Oracle Directory Server.
   For more information, see Step 1: Install the Oracle Directory Server.
2. Create the ORACLEHS namespace and crnsysadmin user on the Oracle Directory Server.
   For more information, see Step 2: Create the ORACLEHS organizational unit (OU) and crnsysadmin user on the Oracle Directory Server.

   Note:

   You also create an ORACLEHS namespace and a crnsysadmin user on the Cognos Content Manager Server when you run the Cognos Analytics Customization for InForm wizard. For more information, see Run the Cognos Analytics Customization for InForm wizard—Cognos Content Manager / Cognos Report Server.
