DistributedPlanningOutputDir

DistributedPlanningOutputDir defines the directory to which TUnits are written when a Cognos® Insight distributed application is deployed.

Parameter type: optional, static

Cognos Insight distributed clients need information called "tunits". This data is created when an application is deployed and is updated as the Cognos TM1® server runs. The location of the directory used for this purpose is set using this parameter.

In order to deploy Cognos Insight distributed client applications using this database, uncomment or add this parameter as DistributedPlanningOutputDir=<location of the tunit directory>.

The pathname specified can be absolute, or relative to the Cognos TM1 server data directory.
