ASO cube export (Version 7 EAS)

Hi Guys ,
I need to export the ASO cube in version 7 of EAS into flat file.please let me know the procedure .
I need documentation if anyone can provide it.
Regards
Ram

In version 7 ASO cubes don't have an export option. You can write a report script to do it and also MDX. Depending on how much data you are trying to export, it could be a very long process with either one of these options

Outline Change ASO cube in Version 7

Hi Guys,
I am working on version 7 of EAS.
I have to make a minor change(add a child) to the outline in the ASO cube. I am not able to see the option of retain data with restructure ( which is the case with higher versions).
so how do i save the restructure and data in version 7 of Essbase.
any inputs will be great
Thanks
Ram

You don't Version 7 deletes data with most outline changes. (Simple changes like chaging a formula might not delete data). THe whole premise of ASO cubes was you would always have the source data to reload from. In System 9 it was improved to be able to retain data in most cases

ASO cube export

the problem with an ASO export it is not really a friendly form to use for anything other than to load back to the cube or another of the same format cube. You could use report scripts or mdx scripts to get what you want

SSaudit for ASO cubes in 11.1.1.3?

Hello Gurus -
I was wondering if anyone has been able to get the SSaudit feature working on ASO cube on version 11.1.1.3 to get the .atx and .alg file generated?
We tried but it doesn't seem to work for us. Also, the "send" activity itself doesn't seem to get captured in either apps log or essbase logs.
I was wondering if there is a workaround or especial setting we need to do for ASO.
Pls, throw some light if anyone know anything on it.
Regards

SSAudit is not supported for ASO cubes and unfortunatly neither is transaction logging.
If you need to do something like this I suggest using Dodeca which can save sends in a relational table

Unable to export the ASO cube data

Guys,
I am unable to take an export of the ASO cube data. I am getting the following error message :
Error(1270042)
Aggregate storage data export failed
Can anyone assist me at earliest.
P.S: The data file size is around 30GB.
Cheers
Cnee:)

Hi Cnee,
can you post more entries from app log at this situation, that would be helpful for more analysis.
also confirm if the database is in use while you are exporting the data.
if so, logout users, disable connects and then perform the export.

Can we upload data in ASO Cube version 11.1.2

Hi,
I have a requirement where in ASO cube users need the ability to enter their plan data into the ASO application. Do we need to create Transparent Partition for that. I have an ASO and Hyperion Planning cube and in my Planning cube I have more number of dimensions as compare to ASO.
Please advise
Thanks in advance.

If you are using the Excel add-in you do NOT do a lock, just a send. The lock is a BSO concept to put a hold on blocks. ASO has no blocks to lock. From smartview you do a submit and it handles it all for you. The beauty of using ASO is exactly what you mention, results are immediate without a calc.

DATA LOAD WORNINGS IN ASO CUBES

Hi Every one,
While loading data into ASO cubes in Essbae we are getting wornings like *"Data load strem contains 1.25797e 08 and [0] #misssing cells ".*My data file have #missing values and o's and sepecial carecters like E .I want To load the complete data with out warnings.Kindly let me know if any one's know the solution .Whether i need to change any settings in rule file or how to ingnore those cells .
Thanks,
Vikram

The warnings are really informational messages to let you know it loaded and did not load those values. Which is fine as they tend to bloat a cube (The zeros). #missing is not going to load anyway and the E is exponential format of numbers whinch should not be a problem. Excel will display it this way, but you can format it without the E. You don't mention if you are doing this from EAS or MaxL and what version you are on. In Veraion 11, in EAS there are options in the load dialog to turn on or off the loading of zzeros and missing across the top. In MaxL, I don't see the syntax in the Tech reference, but I thought it was there in 9.

Can we load data for all levels in ASO cube

Hi All,
Can we load data for all levels of members in ASO cube in 9.3.1.
Regards

Yes you can load data for all levels in an ASO cube in any version HOWEVER, none of the upper level data in any cube will be there when you look for it. You will get a warning message in the load because ASO cubes don't store data at upper levels. It is the same as loading data into dynamic calc members in BSO cube. It will do the load without compalints, but there will be no data there (At least you get the warning in ASO)

How to add a new dimension in ASO cube without losing all data

Hi,
I have an ASO cube with 18 dimensions and I want to add a new one (regular). When I add this new dimension it asked me that the all data has to cleared before the restructure can take place. If I click yes then I would lose all data regardless of the fact if I have a level0 export or not. Because when I tried to reload the export back into the cube it gave me an error cause all the dimensions were not present in the export. Does anyone know how would I be able to accomplish this task?
Thanks
fikes

You can try this work around solution.
1) Export Lev0 data
2) Clear the cube
3) Add new dimension Regular.
4) Add a default member Reg00 in the new dimension and save.
5) Open the Lev0 data in a text editor, Insert "Reg00" in the begining of the file and Enter.
6) Lev0 file will have first record "Reg00" and the remaining export file will be from the second record.
7) Load the modified file with out rule file.
You can verify that all your history data will be loaded w.r.to the Reg00 of the New dimension Regular.

Problem working on member formulas in ASO cube

Hi
I was asked to convert a planning application BSO cubes into a single ASO cube.I have managed to convert one BSO Cube into ASO through EAS console and added the members in the other BSO cube throgh rulesfile.
Now i have to write the member formulas for the level0 members of Account dimension.These are very simple formulas like
if(@ISMBR("New_Seats"))
"Assets Value"="Total Asset Cost";
else
"Assets Value"="Asset_Value";
endif;
and
"Empty_Seats"=(("New Seat Additions"+"Available_Seats")-"Required_Seats");
This is the first time i am working on ASO.I am getting this error while writing these formulas
"Error(1260052) syntax error in input mdx query on line 1 at token '=' Empty_Seats..."
Help me in writing these formulas and also in selecting proper member properties.

The hierarchy is like
Account(gen1)
-> Statistical_Account(gen2)
->New Seat Additions(gen3)
I have tried tthis and the formula is verified successfully
*([Statistical_Account].[New Seat Additions]+[Statistical_Account].[Available_Seats])-([Statistical_Account].[Required_Seats])*
if i use *([New Seat Additions]+[Available_Seats])-[Required_Seats]* it is not veryfying throwing some syntax error
Thanks

Aso cube size after migration to essbase 9.3.1

Hy,
Our Aso cubes size after migration from essbase 7.1.2 to 9.3.1 are double and more.
Do you have any suggestion?
Thank you.
Lorenzo

You could try Essbase Security Dumper (ESD), available for download on www.dougware.com. It will export users, groups, and filters into a text dump that is easily read/modified and updated to another server.
Caveats: only works with native security, and assigns random passwords to users that are created (a log file shows all upload tasks which can be used to look up the password assignments).
It may help, although it's obviously not going to eliminate all the effort, as I don't believe there is a tool that will migrate native passwords from one box to another.
There are other security tools available there that can help recover individual databases and such.

ASO cube

Hi
we are trying to build a cube . Cube is ASO cube and want to build cube wich has functionality of planning .But , we saw that planning creates a BSO cube and has fucntion for allocation. I want ot know how to do this in ASO cube
Jim

Hi Jim,
1. Firstly, I appreciate you work of incorporating the whole functionality of P and B in an ASO cube.
2. I would like to know your version .In version 11.1.2 , we do have allocation even for ASo cube. So, if its the new version, you have the pre defined function for you( "execute allocation")
Do update on the progress to the forum

ASO cube permissions

How do I give my user permission to an ASO cube so she can run a report. I feel like we've tried everything but nothing seems to work.
Thanks!

The same way as you would with a BSO cube.
What are you using to run the report? (excel add in, financial reporting, etc?)
Version of Essbase ? (on System 9/11 shared services?)
what errors are you getting?

ASO cubes and dimensional security, how???

Hi,
I'm getting my feet wet with ASO, and I'm wondering how to implement security on dimensions in a way similar to a Planning application (which is BSO only, I understand). When administering a planning application, I can apply security to specific members in dimensions, then refresh security etc, but what can I do for an ASO cube? I'm assuming that ASO cubes can be created/administered only through EAS.
I need to be able to control what groups/users can access certain members of dimensions of ASO cube, when they run reports on the cube.
Thanks
Mike

Hi Mike,
User management and security is the same either for ASO or BSO application from Essbase point of view.
You can either use Native security mode or security through shared services based on the configurations done.

Write back(Lock and Send) in Essbase(v11.1.1.3) ASO cube?

Hi All,
can you please let me know if I can do a 'lock and send' in ASO cube throug Excel Add-in ? I have Essabse version 11.1.1.3. If yes, please let know if need to do any special setting.
Cheers!

Hi John,
I am working on an issue where a MaxL is closing and killing connections to an application and it's database before it Stops Application inorder to flip it into a working database. Frequently, the process fails at the Stop Application and were advise that we need an ulock objects statement. Are the locks and locked objects different? I can understand why there aren't locks on an ASO and I can see locked objects on an ASO when the outline is checked out. How else can an ASO have locked objects? I am updating the Maxl to include disables on connections, updates, and commands and to unlock objects against the database.
Now I need to test this and am wondering how to provoke a locked object on an ASO cube?
