Configure the NPS Console

Note Follow the instructions in this section only if NNMi and NPS are installed on the same server.

In addition to disabling remote access to NPS databases, you can configure the NPS console to restrict users from launching the BI Server portal from remote systems by following these steps:

  1. Log on to the NNMi management server.
  2. Open the following file with a text editor:

    1. Windows: %ovdatadir%\NNMPerformanceSPI/rconfig/NNMPerformanceSPI.cfg
    2. Linux: /var/opt/OV/NNMPerformanceSPI/rconfig/NNMPerformanceSPI.cfg
  3. To prevent users from launching the BI Server portal from remote systems, set the CC_DISABLE_REMOTE_COGNOS_ADMINISTRATION to true.
  4. Save the file.
  5. Restart the BI Server by running the following commands:

    1. stopBI.ovpl
    2. startBI.ovpl

    You are now no longer able to use the menu items under the BI Server workspace in the NPS console.

    Note You can still log on to the NPS system, launch the NPS console with a local browser, and then use the BI Server workspace.
