Hi Everyone,

I'm currently using the free trial version of IBM Cognos Analytics, and I'm trying to connect a database. However, I encountered an issue when attempting to create a Satellite Connector. The error message reads:

"Cannot create more Satellite Connector instances."

To my knowledge, I haven't created any Satellite Connector instances in this trial environment yet, so I'm not sure why this error is occurring.

Could this be a limitation of the free trial, or might there be something I need to adjust in my configuration? If anyone has faced a similar issue or knows how to resolve this, I would appreciate your guidance!

Thank you in advance for your help.

Hi @Razan Mohammed,

Based on what I found, it seems that the free trial version of IBM Cognos Analytics does not support Satellite Connectors. This feature is typically available only to paid customers....

Satellite Connector Licensing for Cognos Analytics on Cloud

Maybe this will help you?
