Cognos Express rollback from 10.1 to 9.5

[AlastairFM]

We are currently conducting tests on CX 10.1 regarding install, configuration and operational differences from 9.5.

I am wondering, however, if anyone has any experience or knows of any issues or points to watch out for regarding reverting back to CX 9.5 after an install of 10.1 and transferring the data to the older version ?

This is an open question rather than a support request.

any issues or points to watch out for regarding reverting back to CX 9.5 after an install of 10.1 ...

There have been problems noted in the past with trying to re-install CX on a machine that had an older install on it; no idea if this impacts 10.1->9.5 thoug... I'd say using a VM with a clean base image is the way forward here if you're just checking out the new version and whether you want to plump for the upgrade.

and transferring the data to the older version ?

You are taking a back-up, aren't you ?
