MetaManager Extensionsfor IBM Cognos

Migrating from a legacy IBM Cognos security source to another is far from trivial. The challenge is that a user in the old security source is not the same user in the new security source, and as a result none of the user's permissions, preferences or My Folders content will carry over to the new namespace.

Migration on your own, on your timelines, at your convenience!
