While troubleshooting the Metrics application, and IBM Cognos Business Intelligence components, we might need to visit components URLs to verify the component is running.
Table 1 provides the URLs for each server component deployed with Cognos Business Intelligence.
Task URL Verify the Cognos Content Manager is running.
http://Cognos WAS server host name:port/Cognos_context_root/servlet

Before federating the Cognos node to the dmgr, use the following URL:

For example:
http://cognosserver.myco.com:9080/cognos/servlet/dispatch/ext
After federating the Cognos node to the dmgr, use the following URL:
http://Cognos_WAS_server_host_name:port/Cognos_context_root/servlet/dispatch
For example:
