Setting up the Metric Studio sample

To set up the Metric Studio sample, you must create a metric store and a new metric package, set the import source, and import the metric data and files into the metric store.

  1. Create a metric store named GOMETRIC.

    For more information about creating a metric store, see the IBM Cognos Business Intelligence Installation and Configuration Guide.

  2. Create a new metric package that is named "GO Metrics" that uses the data source named go_metrics.

    When prompted by the wizard, select the standard Gregorian calendar and accept the defaults for Years, Quarters, and Months. Select January 1, 2010 as the start date for a period that includes the current year, and use a period of at least five years.

  3. Set the import source.
  4. Import the metric data and files into the metric store.
