QUESTION: 6

An administrator needs to add users from multiple authentication providers to a single role. What needs to be done?

Log on to each of the namespaces before starting.
Add external namespaces to the Cognos namespace manually.
Add the users to a Cognos group, then add the group to the Cognos role.
Import the users to the Cognos namespace first, then add the users to the Cognos role.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

In the Cognos Analytics user interface, authentication providers are represented by namespaces. Cognos Analytics supports the following types of authentication providers:
Authentication providers are configured in IBM Cognos Configuration, under the Security > Authentication category. After the provider namespace is added there, and the IBM Cognos service is restarted, the namespace name is displayed in Manage > Accounts, and users can log on to Cognos Analytics using that namespace.

QUESTION: 8

An administrator needs to setup security for a newly installed environment. Which of the following is a valid step?

Remove the default authentication provider.
Enable anonymous access for selected users, groups, or roles.
Delete the Everyone group to limit access to the environment for selected users, groups, and roles.
Add trusted users, groups, or roles to the System Administrators role, and then remove the Everyone group from the role.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

You may not want all users that exist in an authentication source to have access to IBM Cognos software. To secure IBM Cognos software, configure the product so that only users who belong to a specific group or role in your authentication source, or in the Cognos namespace, are allowed access.
We recommend using the Cognos namespace because it contains preconfigured groups and roles that help you to secure IBM Cognos software quickly. One of the preconfigured groups is Everyone.
By default, the group Everyone belongs to several built-in groups and roles in the Cognos namespace.
If you decide to use the Cognos namespace, you must remove the Everyone group from all built-in groups and roles and replace it with groups, roles, or users authorized to access IBM Cognos software.

QUESTION: 9

An administrator created a Content Store export and included the user account information. How can a listing of the content be exported?

Within the export, ensure the Recording level option is set to Trace.
By default when the Content Store is backed up, a full detailed listing is generated and available in the Logs folder.
Modify the Advanced settings on the ContentManagerService by adding the parameter CM.DeploymentDetailEntireContent with a value of true.
Modify the Advanced settings on the ContentManagerService by adding the parameter CM.DeploymentIncludeConfiguration with a value of true.

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

You can specify if configuration objects and their children are included as part of deployment. By default, they are not included.
You can change the default setting using the advanced setting CM.DEPLOYMENTINCLUDECONFIGURATION. By default, it is set to False (do not include configuration objects in deployments).
To change the default to include configuration objects and their children, set it to True.

A report specification is executed via BIBus then to Query service which parses the request into two trees and executes via RDBMS adapter and caches then waits for the result and generates the report output.

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

The SQL engine obtains data directly from the RDBMS Adapter. The Query Execution Engine updates the secure Data Cache with dimensional data for future reuse.
Note: A report specification is an executable definition of a report, including query and layout rules, which can be combined with data to produce a report output.
