Hi Pavol,

Could you describe your environment?

Do you have DS on a SQL Server and want to use Linux as Application Server with the DataServices Manager console?

Hi Pavol,

Shouldn't you be in the [BI Solution Architecture|; forum?

You are in the DataServices (DI/DQO) forum. For DS the main usage of BI 4.0 is to authenticate users, but not much more.

On the BI Solution forum you will find a much bigger BI user base.
