Cache memory usage of Hyperion Planning, Workspace and Financial Reporting

We have installed Hyperion Planning, Workspace and Financial Reporting in one single server and we would like to know is there any cache memory setting can be fine tuned to improved the overall online performance of the system.
How can we control the memory usage of individual user logged into Workspace and Hyperion Planning? And if users generate a large size report in Financial Reporting, should more memory be allocated to the user so as to speed up the report generation speed?
Thanks in advance!

Our onsite consultants told us that as we have many web forms and some web forms contains lot of cells, the compiled Hyperion Planning application is quite large (> 1GB) and sometimes may have "out of memory" problem. We just wonder we are using 64bit version of Windows 2003 we should have a much larger memory address space. How can we improve the "out of memory" issue?
Or Hyperion Planning is still a 32 bit application?

Installing Workspace and Financial Reporting on two different servers

Hello Gurus,
I was wondering if anyone can help me with an issue I am having.
I want to install Workspace on Server 1 and Financial Reporting on Server 2. Is it possible to configure Financial Reporting components which is on Server 2 with Workspace on Server 1..? Shared service is installed on Server 1.
Regards,
Saurabh

Hi Memmet,
Yesterday we tried setting up an environment similar to the doubt that I had and here are the results.
Components in Server 1 : Database, Shared Services, Workspace and Financial Reporting Components
Components in Server 2: Only Financial Reporting Components[Configured with the Database for Workspace on Server1].
Now FR studio on Server 1 works absolutely fine without any errors, but when we try to login to the FR studio that is on Server 2 it gives error that I am not authorized to access.
I referred the document which is in My Oracle support but that did not help much and also provisioned the user with all the required rights in Shared service.
I would like to know if we can have Financial Reporting from Server 1 and Server 2 configured with the same Workspace simultaneously, so that if someone updates any report from the workspace the same are reflected in both the FR studio.
Regards,
Saurabh

EPM 11.1.2.1 Workspace and Financial Reporting

Hi,
I have an issue where I am able to login into Workspace. I can see my Planning App from Workspace. However, I do not see the "Root" folder for Financial Reporting.
Under preferences I can see the placeholder for Financial Reporting indicated by red x in retrieving image. I click on image and I can see the preferences for Financial Reporting.
I can login to Financial Reporting studio and create reports connecting to Essbase.
Any ideas why I can make the connection between Workspace and FR?
Thanks

Figured it out. I was using two different domains to deploy the web apps. Re-ran config utility for all apps deploying to local domain.

Creating an Hyperion Planning connection in Financial Reporting

We've got a lot of FM and Essbase reports, but now I'd like to connect to Planning so that I can display cell text in a report but I just can't get the connection setup from Workspace.
Two things:
1. There's no button to pick my Application as with other data sources. This looks odd but I'm not sure if it's normal.
2. When I go to the database connection manager I'm asked for these details and I can't figure out what the "Select Database Connection" string should be:
Database Connection Name: MED
Type: Planning
User ID: [me]
Password: [my password]
Application: MED
Select Database Connection: ? http://[PlanningServer]/HyperionPlanning/ ?
This is what I've tried along with the SQL server, using IP address or FQDN.
Kind Regards,
Dave Rayner

Provide a name for the connection
Select planning as the type.
Enter the user id/password you want to use.
The application name and then the database is the plan type name you want to use.

HFM icons,explore option and Financial Reporting option missing from Workspace 11.1.2.1

Hi,
We finished installing and configuring hyperion 11.1.2.1. We noticed unusual behavior in Workspace, All the HFM icons are missing from the menu , it is showing some hfm path. Explore option and financial reporting options are also missing from the Preferences and workspace. Can you please advice what could be causing this issue ?
Regards,
Andy

Hi Thanos,
Thanks for the reply. Actually i tried to login to HFM client but it says application not registered. So when i tried to register it from workspace, it gives error. I have already configured all the components but i didn't reconfigure Foundation web server after every component. Is it okay if i do it now when all the components are already configured ? Or do you suggest reconfiguring all the components again followed by Foundation web server ?
Also do you think it will help me get explore option in the workspace ?
Kindly advice. Appreciate your help.
Regards,
Andy

Hyperion Enterprise 6.4 Financial Reporting upgrade path

We are currently using Hyperion Enterprise 6.4 Financial Reporting and would like to know what the upgrade path is to the most recent version.
What is the most recent version and can our current version be upgraded directly to it, or will the latest version need to be installed on the same server or a different server?
Let me know.
Thanks.

The latest version for Financial Reporting available is EPM 11.1.2.2.
You may need to migrate first to 9.3.3 or 11.1.3.3 and then move to 11.1.2.2 which is the upgrade path.
You could refer the documentation for 11.1.2.2 in the following link : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/nav/portal_1.htm
For 9.3.x : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E10530_01/welcome.html
For 11.1.1.x : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/index.htm
Hope this helps...

Hyperion Planning Workspace - Export option missing in IE 8

Hello,
I am using v9.2 of Hyperion Planning. I noticed that the option to export Financial Studio Reports in Workspace does not appear in Internet Explorer 8 while in 6/7 it did. Is there any fix for this problem or any workaround?
Regards

I doubt IE8 is supported on 9.2, I know there are patches for 9.3 though I have not heard about any for 9.2, suppose Oracle want to force an upgrade.
Cheers

EPM 11.1.1.3 Drill back with Hyperion Planning and Financial Reporting

Hi,
I'm trying to drill back data with Planning thanks to FDM but it doesn't work.
In fact Planning server and FDM server are not installed on the same machine. My user is both admin on Planning application and FDM one.
When I drill back my data the url provided is the planning one and not FDM server one. I've set up application properties on Planning Application such as FDM_BASE_URL with
"http://servername/HyperionFDM/AuthorizedPages/IntersectionSummaryByLocation.aspx", and the restated my webserver, but it doesn't work.
I've the following errors :
Server Error in '/' Application.
The resource cannot be found.
Description: HTTP 404. The resource you are looking for (or one of its dependencies) could have been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable. Please review the following URL and make sure that it is spelled correctly.
Requested URL: /HyperionFDM/AuthorizedPages/IntersectionSummaryByLocation.aspx
Best Regards
Eric

When you say drill back, are you saying you want to drill through to the source database or whatever it was you loaded the data from?
If so, my question is was this data loaded using FDM ?
Also I would run the validation tool in EPM Diagnostics and make sure everything is ok on the web end.
Not knowing exactly what your setup looks like, this is all I can suggest for now.

Hyperion Planning vs Oracle Financial for departmental budgets

Hello,
I was wondering what the consensus is between using Oracle Financials vs. Hyperion Planning for variance analysis purposes.
My contention is that HP is a best-in-breed budgeting/planning tool and should be used to house our departmental budgets/forecasts and that actuals should be fed from Oracle Financials (G/L) to Hyperion Planning for variance anlaysis purposes. Some of my piers disagree. They feel the budgeting/forecating data should be pushed to Oracle Financials for variance analysis purpose. They claim it will be easier to provide drill-back capability into the ledger to find the answer to their variances.
I really couldn't disagree more - to me the analytical capability of HP trumps any drill-back capability provided by Oracle Financials. In addition, if we use an ETL tool like FDM to feed actuals from Oracle into HP, can't I drill back to the transactional data (actuals) via FDM? In addition, since we budget at a summary account level, how can you push summary planning data in HP to detailed transactional accounts in the G/L - pushing "one to many" doesn't make sense to me.
Anyway, just looking for some expert opinions on the subject. Much appreciated - Thanks

Hi,
We are currently in the final phase of implementing Oracle Financials and Hyperion for the same purpose that you have described in your post. We use Oracle Financials to record actuals and then transfer it to Hyperion under the scenario 'Actual'. While the budget/forecast data in only entered/saved in Hyperion. There are several financial reports for variances that are generated out of Hyperion. So far, this arrangement is serving us pretty well. I second your point that in Hyperion, we can easily compare summary level data. We have Hyperion reports that do variances calculations for sub-totals. In fact, we are also using HP reports for consolidated statements such as Balance sheet, Income statement etc. The actual data for these statements is coming from GL.
As for drill through functionality (from HP to sub-ledger details in financials), we are in process of implementing FDM and use it for both (1) loading data and (2) drill through.
Hope this helps.

Hyperion Web Analysis vs Financial Reports Pros and Cons

Hi All,
Can you pls. let me know what are the major differences between Hyperion Financial Reports and Hyperion Web Analysis ? For Planning application we generally use Financial Reports right ? Can't we use Hyperion Web Analysis ? What are the advantages & disadvantages of both FR & Web Analysis tools
My Customer is asking the Merits and De merits of using both FR & Web Analysis tools for Hyperion Planning. Pls. help
Thanks,
PVR

Hi John,
I'm using FR extensively now and used Web Analysis before. We use FR for Good formatted Reports, where as Web Analysis we use for adhoc Reporting Purpose. users can do slicing/dicing, Drill down/up in Web Analysis Reports, where as this feature is not available completely in FR
We use FR for Planning right ? What is the main advantage of using FR over Planning ? I belive with Web Analysis over Planning may cause performance issues
Thanks,

Display Hyperion Planning celltext in OBIEE reports.

Hi,
The requirement is to display the Hyperion Planning comments entered in the forms on the corresponding OBIEE reports. I have been able to retrieve details about the author, note contents along with the corresponding dimensions by considering the following tables:
1.HSP_CELL_NOTE
2.HSP_CELL_NOTE_ITEM
3.HSP_OBJECT
4.HSP_USER
But I am confused about the subsequent approach I need to take. How should the federation be done with the Essbase cube in the OBIEE repository? How should the comments be tagged to the specific OBIEE reports corresponding to the Hyperion Planning forms?
I am using Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.2 and OBIEE 11.1.1.6.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Debarati.
Edited by: Debarati SJ on May 29, 2013 12:06 AM

Hi Celvin,
Many thanks for your reply. But can you please elaborate on the steps?
When I extracted data from Essbase (planning application), it does not generate ID columns for the dimensions that can be used to match with the HSP_OBJECT.OBJECT_ID. So I am not able to understand the logic behind joining the IDs.
On the hyperion planning relational tables,I ran the following Query to retrieve the Note for comment and the corresponding Dimension members:
SELECT HYPUSER.HSP_CELL_NOTE.NOTE_ID,
HYPUSER.HSP_CELL_NOTE_ITEM.CONTENTS,
HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT.OBJECT_NAME AS Scenario,
HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT1.OBJECT_NAME AS Account,
HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT2.OBJECT_NAME AS Entity,
HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT3.OBJECT_NAME AS Period,
HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT4.OBJECT_NAME AS Version,
HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT5.OBJECT_NAME AS YEAR
FROM HYPUSER.HSP_CELL_NOTE
INNER JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_CELL_NOTE_ITEM
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.NOTE_ID = HSP_CELL_NOTE_ITEM.NOTE_ID
LEFT JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.DIM1 = HSP_OBJECT.OBJECT_ID
LEFT JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT HSP_OBJECT1
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.DIM2 = HSP_OBJECT1.OBJECT_ID
LEFT JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT HSP_OBJECT2
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.DIM3 = HSP_OBJECT2.OBJECT_ID
LEFT JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT HSP_OBJECT3
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.DIM4 = HSP_OBJECT3.OBJECT_ID
LEFT JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT HSP_OBJECT4
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.DIM5 = HSP_OBJECT4.OBJECT_ID
INNER JOIN HYPUSER.HSP_OBJECT HSP_OBJECT5
ON HSP_CELL_NOTE.DIM6 = HSP_OBJECT5.OBJECT_ID
Thanks and regards,
Debarati.

Hyperion Web Analysis vs Financial Reports

Hi All,
Can you pls. let me know what are the major differences between Hyperion Financial Reports and Hyperion Web Analysis ? For Planning application we generally use Financial Reports right ? Can't we use Hyperion Web Analysis ? What are the advantages & disadvantages of both FR & Web Analysis tools
Thanks,

In a nut shell Hyperion Web Analysis is useful for reports having user drill downs. The end users will have the capability to drill down and select member from different Point of Views.
Financial Reports can be used for regulatory reporting and reports in standard format.
You can create reports in both Financial Reports and Web Analysis from Planning based on your requirement.
Please read the documentation for more information on the differences between the two products.

Memory Usage with new Tab Apps and Panoramas

I actually don't have a problem, just a question. I love the new tab apps and panorama features in FF4, but I am wondering how the CPU usage compares with e earlier versions of FF. (I never checked and I'm not going to :)) Are there any recommendations on how tab apps and panoramas should be used? My assumption is that the "dormant" panos will use less cycles than if they were all open on the desktop, is this true?

CS3 is still 32-bit so the user address space is 3.5GB. However, the OS can still use additional memory for cache to help performance, which comes into play when working with larger files. You need to download and install the enable VMBuffer plug-in, otherwise VMBuffering is disabled.
See: http://www.crn.com/software/197700697

http://www.barefeats.com/octopro4.html

As soon as Firefox opens, it starts increasing memory usage until it maxes out, and it won't actually close unless I end the process in the task manager.

Even if I'm not doing anything, no matter how few tabs I have open, Firefox will slowly increase in memory (RAM) usage until it's using nearly 100% of my computer's RAM, and everything basically freezes. Even when I close the window, the process continues to run, and I have to end the process in the task manager in order to get it to stop using RAM. I've tried disabling all my add-ons, and that does not help.

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
*Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
