Process for separate Prod and Dev enviroments

apologies for the newbie question....currently I have 1 SSAS instance with Cube , measure and dimensions and DB which is Prod and Dev at the same time (most likely Dev with
no Prod).
Now when business users started using Cubes, I'd need to add Prod instance and separate Prod and Dev.
what 'd be the best approach?
1 - should I just copy and reuse the latest version of SSAS project in Visual studio, and reuse this project as PROD and have another Project as DEV?
2. how do I apply Dev changes to Prod?
3. re backup - is it enough to backup VS (Visual studio) project/solution definitions?

Ideally you need to have two instances i.e DEV and PROD. Now since you have a server which client is already using, you need to create another instance wherein you can install SSAS services. If you want to extract the structure of your cube then you can
use Import option. Once you get your cube structure and database on another new server you can use that as a DEV or PROD as per your convenience.

Another question is how to deploy changes;
So if you are doing any development on DEV server and you want that to deploy on PROD server then you can extract the cube XMLA from DEV server cube copy and deploy that on PROD server. You need to process cube once you deploy your XMLA on PROD. 
There are some other options of deployment available which you can check.

  • Process for chek-in and check-out  webdynpro app in DTR

    Hi gurus,
    Please let me know the process for how to check in and check out webdynpro application in DTR.
    thanks ,
    Lohi.

    Hi Lohi,
    When you are connected ot DTR and trying to change WD component from there you will be asked about whether you need to add changed files to activity. Don`t add any generated files to activities (from bin nad gen_* folders). To check out, go to development infrastrucutre view, select activity, specify name, review it, check out, activate.

  • Standard process for creating Services and accessing Services on EBS 11i

    All,
    Do you have any kind of documentation that explains how we should handle Services in the EBS 11i?
    We have two types of interfaces currently and no one of them uses Services:
    1. We create files in some kind of gateway
    2. We get files generated in a gateway or when it's the case we access different databases via database link.
    I really appreciate your help.
    Thanks,
    Fernando

    Right, but what would be all the standard process for creating a webservice?
    Is there any kind of document that shows in detail how to do that? and also, how we should access webservices from other systems?
    Thanks for your help.

    Once the pricing procedure ia assigned to sales order, it is automatically copied into Invoice through Copy controls. You never assign pricing procedure to billing document. it is automatically copied.

  • Can you create multiple connections in smartview? for PROD and DEV?

    Hi,
    We have a production and development hyperion planning. In Smartview, we have successfully connected to PROD but can we create another connection to DEV?
    or do we keep replacing the URL?
    thanks

    I think from 11.1.2.2 onwards the ability to add servers in Shared Connection is removed and an enhancement is filed to have that ability.
    You can use private connection to connect to different instances
    http://DEV:19000/aps/APS for Essbase
    http://DEV:19000/HyperionPlanning/SmartView HyperionPlanning
    If you are on 11.1.2.3 you can create an XML file and use that as your Shared Connection

  • Launching new window in separate process for separate JVM

    This topic has been posted before, with no successful resolution, but
    I'm still holding out hope.
    I would like for a user to be able to launch multiple versions of the
    same applet that know nothing about one another. I know that popping a
    new window, by default, opens a window that shares the same process/JVM.
    Is there ANY WAY to open the new window as a separate process, thereby
    giving it its own JVM?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    We'd horrific problems with shared static variables and multiple instances of Applets. We kept getting "white screens" where we'd corrupt Swing and have to restart the browser.
    Basically, we had to rid our application of singletons and static variables ( as much as possible ).
    It involved a lot of rewriting, to make the applet more structured.
    Ie. pass applet references down to classes and methods explicitely.
    rather than lazy singletons which call MyApplet.getInstance().
    You might try loading each Applet in it's own classloader, within the same VM. I think you might be able separate Applet instances then.
    Very messy though... they may all delegate to the parent classloader.
    And if they don't, then each Applet's classloader would probably have to load a duplicate set of class.

  • Query running sometimes slow and sometimes fast on both prod and dev. Help

    We are running a job that is behaving so inconsistently that I am ready to jump off the 19th floor. :-)
    This query that goes against one table, was just coming to halt in production. After 4 days of investigation we thought it was the resource on production box. Now we have another dev box where we were also having the same issue. This box gets updated with production data everyday. There is a 3rd box. DBA ran update statistics on the 3rd box and the job was never slow there. When we updated 2nd box (dev) with statistics from th 3rd box, the job also ran fine. So we thought we know for sure that it is the statistics that we need to up. Now for business testing, the 2nd and 3rd box got updated with data and statistics from production box (the troubled one). We thought surely we will see issues on the 2nd and 3rd box, but the job was just running fine on these boxes. As I said, the 2nd box gets updated with production data everyday. After last night's refresh this job is running long on the 2nd box again. We are really puzzled. Has any one experience anything like this before?
    thanks in advance.
    Reaz.

    We got our dba who is checking the plan when ever we run the job.
    The dba is running the trace right now. Here is the trace result from the trace:
    SELECT STATUS_FLAG, FSI_TID, FSI_REC_TID, AREA, VALUE_DATE, CANCEL_DATE,
    TO_DATE(ENTRY_DATE_TIME), PRODUCT, CUST_TID

  • Same AppSet Name, 2 Different Server (Prod and Dev) causing XML corruption

    Thx
    Edited by: Joan Perrella on Oct 2, 2010 12:33 AM

    Also, another scenario:  User tried to connect durring or after an Optimization is perpformed?
    Will this cause an AppInfo.XML corruption?  
    And what happens if the user changes between 2 different AppSets within the same server (Prod)?
    Will this cause the AppInfo.XML corruption?
      I have seen many different responses as to why this occurs, and until we upgrade to BPC 7.5 MS occurs, we need to better understand what is causing this, so that we can help our users better understand the current situation here. 
    We have deleted the duplicate AppSet within 2 different servers and renamed the duplicate AppSet within DEV to a unique name.  Also, had the users delete the corrupted AppInfo.XML file and so forthe, but still this Randomly Occurs to this date.
    Answers please....
