Cobra supports direct integration with Microsoft Project (MSP) Server. You must perform a series of steps to set up the integration.
The set-up steps require that you access to SQL Server Studio and the MSP Server database.
Attention: Refer to the current Cobra release notes to see the supported versions of Microsoft Project Server.
To configure the MSP Server database to support integration with Cobra:
-
Using the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, connect to the SQL Server with MSP Server setup.
-
Once connected, expand the Database folder.
-
Open the
MSP_Server_SQLServer.sql script located in the Cobra application script subfolder.
For standalone deployment, the default installation folder is: C:\Program Files\Deltek\Cobra\Scripts\SQLServer\Create.
For client/server and n-tier deployments, you can find the script in the Cobra installation folder on the server.
-
Edit the script.
Make sure the square brackets around the database names in the script are also replaced.
-
Run the script against the MSP server database.
-
If the scripts complete successfully, the MSP server databases are ready to run the Cobra Integration using MSP server. You can define the connection information to the MSP server on the New Connection dialog box of the Integration Wizard.
