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 size

Hi,
We are currently working on designing a system with the cube size estimated to be in the region of 400GB to 600Gbs. I wanted to explore Essbase ASO as an option. Has anyone implemented a cube of that size using ASO and if yes how is the performance with regards to query performance and processing time. Are there any specific issues that we have to keep in mind? We would have about 12 dimensions.
Thanks,
Amol

hi Amol,
1. On what basis , did you estimate your cube to around 400GB to 600GB.
2. If ASO is an option, its huge advantage lies in space, its does not take more space , unlike BSO.
3. I have seen cubes ,who size was around 300-400GB in BSO,when made the same cube into ASO , its consumed space of 40GB-45GB.
HOpe this helps

Unable to create ASO cube with 120 attributes in Essbase

Hi All,
Currently we have requirement to build the ASO cube contains 6 hierachies and they wants to include all the columns of three relational tables.So,I adding all the columns as attributes to three of each hierarchies because they are all descriptive of each dimension.
Now when I am trying build individually its wroking fine,When I am combining its throws an error "Network Error.Cannot close the cube".I seen in Essbase limitations that it will allow upto 256 dimensions however in my scenerio it is not accepting even 140(including all).
Can some one assist is there any possible solution to build the cube.
For your reference

Thanks in Advance

"D:\ Huperion\Analytics\Bin\libdb42.dll"
Is that a typo or is your path "Huperion" instead of "Hyperion"?
I could see where that might cause a problem.

DB Size is reduced (LOB segment size) after Migration from Win To Linux

Hi Friends,
We have migrated Oracle 11.2.0.1 Database (64 bit) from Windows (64 Bit) To Linux (64 Bit) using RMAN convert database at target.
After Migration i could see the size of LOB Segment is very less in targe so as the DB Size.
Is it baecuas the conversion extracts only the used segments from the source datafilles (or) am i losing some data?
SQL> DECLARE

I suspect that the source DB has many LOB rows deleted.

Increased file sizes after migrating to the Ultra2

Upgrading from a 10,000E to an Ultra2 and have noticed that many of the files that I had on my 10,000E have grown after migrating to the Ultra2. The sizes vary from doubling to fractional, but there is a consistant increase in the sizes of files. Anyone have any ideas?

Are you seeing the size increase when you do an "ls -l" and get the size or is
the space used in the file system (ls -s / du / df) just higher than it was on the last machine?
If it is the latter and the file systems are using more space, it could be due to sparse
files. In other words, files with holes in them. Utilities such as tar and cpio do
not understand holes in files and when the files are moved, the holes are filled
in and the space required for the file increases. ufsdump understands the file
system and can recreate the holes in the files.
If the actual size of the file is increasing (ls -l), that is strange and more details
would be required.

ASO physical clear increases cube size?

I am testing out performance and feasibility of a physical clear and have noticed that the cube size actually INCREASES after doing a physical delete. The cube size increased from 11.9 GB to 21.9 GB. Anyone know why?
Our ASO cube is used as a forecasting application and models are being updated consistently. Logical delete won't work because a model can be updated multiple times and direct quote from manual precludes the logical clear option.
"Oracle does not recommend performing a second logical clear region operation on the same region, because the second operation does not clear the compensating cells created in the first operation and does not create new compensating cells."
Here is the MDX I used to do a physical clear of ~120 models from the cube.

}' Physical;
Any insight would be greatly appreciated.

I am sorry but I do not have my test system available so i will have to do it from memory.
I am surprised at this - it is what you would expect if you did a logical clear. When you look at db statistics does the number of cells reflect the original less the cleared area? And does it show no slices? If so then you did do a physical as your maxl indicates.
You might want to stop and start the application. Otherwise I will have to check some more.
But given the size of the increase (almost doubled) I would wonder why you would do a clear as opposed to a reset. Finally I am wondering why you are doing a clear at all? Why not just a send and let an incremental slice. That way only the changed cells would be found in the slice. More important the slices would be quite small and likely automatically "merged".
Finally - I am wondering about the DBAG quote (page 982 on PDF) you included. Again I would have to test but I think they are only warning that the the number of slices will start to build up but I would expect that "because the second operation does not clear the compensating cells created in the first operation and does not create new compensating cells". The net result would still be correct.

Essbase ASO Cube query performance from OBI EE

Hi all
I have serious problems of performance when I query an ASO cube from OBI EE. The problem born when I implement a filter in some dimension of model in the Business Model and Mapping layer. This filter is to level-0 of the dimension, the values are obtained from a session variable in OBI EE. The objetive of this is apply filters depending of users. Then, for session variable I've a table in relational dabase base with relation between user and "access", then my dimensions (not all) have as level-0 the "access" of users (as duplicated members).
The session variable in OBI EE is filled with row-wise option, so it has all values of "access" that correspond to user (:USER system variabe).
When I query only by one of this filtered dimensions the respond is very fast, When I query for one of this filtered dimensions and a metric the respond is fast (10 seconds). But when I query for two of this filtered dimensions and metric the respond take 25 minutes. I checked Essbase app log and found this:
+[Mon Nov 15 19:56:01 2010]Local/TestSec5/TestSec5/admin/Info(1013091)+
+Received Command [MdxReport] from user [admin]+
+[Mon Nov 15 20:28:28 2010]Local/TestSec5/TestSec5/admin/Info(1260039)+
MaxL DML Execution Elapsed Time : [1947.18] seconds
When I look the MDX query generated by OBI I see that the aggregation process is doing in the fly in the members filtered of the crossjoin of two dimensions:
With
set [CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL2] as '[CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL].Generations(2).members'
set [CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO2] as '[CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].Generations(2).members'
*member [METRICAS_PRESUPUESTARIAS].[MS1] as 'AGGREGATE(filter(crossjoin (Descendants([CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL].currentmember,[CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL].Generations(7)),Descendants([CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].currentmember,[CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].Generations(7))),(([CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL].CurrentMember.MEMBER_ALIAS = "01.01" OR [CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL].CurrentMember.MEMBER_Name = "01.01")) AND (([CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].CurrentMember.MEMBER_ALIAS = "G" OR [CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].CurrentMember.MEMBER_Name = "G") OR ([CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].CurrentMember.MEMBER_ALIAS = "I0101" OR [CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].CurrentMember.MEMBER_Name = "I0101") OR ([CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].CurrentMember.MEMBER_ALIAS = "S01" OR [CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO].CurrentMember.MEMBER_Name = "S01"))),METRICAS_PRESUPUESTARIAS.[Compromiso])', SOLVE_ORDER = 100*
select
{ [METRICAS_PRESUPUESTARIAS].[MS1]
} on columns,
NON EMPTY {crossjoin ({[CATALOGO_INSTITUCIONAL2]},{[CATALOGO_PRESUPUESTARIO2]})} properties ANCESTOR_NAMES, GEN_NUMBER on rows
from [TestSec5.TestSec5]
Can somebody tell me if is possible to change the way in that OBI built the query or if is possible to use aggregations previously materialized of essbase?

Data load in Essbase ASO cube

Hi,
I have not been using ASO cube before and had worked only on BSO cubes. Now I have a requirement to create a rule file to load data in to an ASO Essbase cube. I have created a data load rule file as I was creating for a BSO cube which is correctly validating. However when I am doing the data load I am getting following warning:
"Aggregate storage applications ignore update to derived cells. [480] cells skipped"
I have investigated further and found that ASO cube does not allow data loading at upper levels & on members calculated through formulas. After this I have ensured that I am loading the data in to zero level members and members which are not calculated through formula. But still I am not able to do the data load & getting the same warning.
Could you please help me and let me know if there is anything else which I am missing here?
Thanks in advance...
AKW

Hi AKW,
"Aggregate storage applications ignore update to derived cells. [480] cells skipped"This is only a warning message that means only those many cells were skipped might be for some reasons like any member pointing to those cells will be missing.
If you want to copy the Data of your BSO cube to an ASO Application why dont you use an PARTIONING it will copy your whole data from BSO to ASO (If Outline is common in both then copy any member of Sparse dimension like "Scenario 1" from Source i.e. BSO, to same member like "Scenario 1" in Target i.e ASO ),
This is only an alternate wayThanks

EPMA 11.1.2.1 - All rights suddenly grayed out after deploying ASO cube.

I created and successfully deployed an ASO Cube using EPMA (11.1.2.1). The next day, all rights to the ASO cube were grayed out in Application Library (i.e. Deploy option was grayed out). We learned from Oracle Support that you need to explicitly provision the creator with Application Manager rights to the cube, even if you are the creator of the application. This
behavior for ASO (and probably BSO cubes) is consistent when compared to a Planning Application (creator is automatically provisioned). Oracle Support confirmed that this is the correct behavior and that EPMA is functioning as designed.

Are you saying that if you add the attributes manually in application it is coming to essbase and the ones in shared dimension are not coming.
Check whether attribute is inherited or defined at application level.

Word Document size is increased after migration?

Hello
We migrated from Sp2003 to Sp2010 and noticed that all item documents in each document library, file size is increased.
I compared the couple of documents, everything is same.
Is it by default depending on framework or what is logic behind this.
Can any one please explain on this?
Avi

I did experience this after a migration, and attributed it to differences in versions of sql server that were being used. Random checking resulted in identical results, just like you. After using it for many months, we got no end user complaints about it.
Needless to say, having documents of different sizes after a migration can be very discomforting for just about all involved parties.
In my case, there was a difference, when migrating via a 3rd party tool there
were file size differences, when migrating via standard MS tooling (by exporting individual site collections, but also by attaching content db's), we experienced
no differences.
Kind regards,

My cube size is go on increasing essbase how to handle this ?

ex:day 1 my cube size is 60 gb.after 2 days it go 80 gb.how to handle this in essbase

May be you can try to do a restructure of the Cube. But it will take more time and and when this restructure is being performed no one will be able to access the cube.
All the pag files will reduce to less files once its done.
We have around 170 pag files and after restructure they have reduced to 130 pag files. You do not need to change any data inside the cube to do this.
The process to do from F to H and back from H to F.
Restructure to H drive
Create the directories on the H drive if they do not exist. (not sure if this is necessary)
Go to properties of the cube (storage tab) and remove the F drive, and add H drive
Do a stop and start of the database
Go back to properties and insure the H drive is there
Right click on the cube and confirm the H drive is there
Then go to cube and do a restructure
Restructure back to F drive
Go to properties of the cube (storage tab) and remove H drive and add F drive
Do a stop and start of the database
Go back to properties and insure F drive is there
Then go to cube, right click and do a restructure back to F.

Accessing Essbase ASO Cube from Oracle Relational database

Hi All,
I am a Oracle database developer. We have a requirement where we need to access Hyperion Essbase ASO cube data directly from Relational Database. We have identified below options.
1. Use Hyperion web service and UTL_HTTP oracle utility
2. Use JAVA API to access ASO cube. The code of the Java, will be written in Informatica Java Transformation.
Unfortunetly, i am not getting good resources in Google on how to do?
Appreciate, if someone share the knowledge if they have implemented this.?

I am not competent to recommend any particular approach but Essbase.ru has some blog entries on using XMLA / 11.1.2.2 services and a Google Code project...
