Accessing Remote Servers
TM1® makes
remote servers available through a process called the Admin Server,
which runs on a network Admin Host machine. When a remote TM1 server is started, the Admin Server records
the TM1 name and network address, and makes this
information available to TM1 clients
on the network.
Remote servers appear in the Tree pane of the Server Explorer window with a name other than local.
To access the cubes and dimensions on a remote server, you must specify the Admin Host on which an Admin Server is running, and log on to the TM1 . Remote servers can, but need not, be on a machine other than the local server machine. The local label implies it is a "private" server, not its location.
For the name of the Admin Host for your network, see your TM1 administrator. To specify the Admin Host name, use the TM1 Options dialog box, as described in Setting Client Options.
