An administrator wants to ensure that a datasource can be referenced when creating data modules in the IBM Cognos Analytics Portal (New > Data module). What must be done to accomplish this?
A. Add the datasource to the list of supported datasources in IBM Cognos Configuration.
B. Configure the datasource in IBM Cognos Transformer so that it can communicate with the portal.
C. In the web-based modeling tool itself, specify the ‘Create Data Modules’ access permission for the datasource.
D. On the Connection tab of the datasource properties, ensure that the ‘Allow web-based modeling’ check box is selected.
Answer: D
Explanation:
Problem(Abstract): Datasource connections not listed in Data server by default Symptom: We can see the datasource in the Admin console but not in the list of data servers. Cause: This is default behavior. Resolving the problem Go to the Administrative Console -> Configuration -> Set properties -> Connections tab. On the bottom, you will see "Data source capabilities" Inside that, check the box which says "Allow web-based modeling" Once you check this, the datasource would be present as data server.
