Compatibility of Essbase V11.1.2.2

Hi All,
We have a plan to upgrade the essbase from V11.1.1.3 to V11.1.2.2.
could you please let me know the
- compatability of Essbasae V11.1.2.2 with SQL Server 2008 R2?
- compatability of Essbasae V11.1.2.2 on OEL 5.3 operating system.
and also I have one more query regarding:
If Oracle 11g/R2 is installed in OEL 5.3 and Essbase V11.1.2.2 on Windows Server2008 R2,
Can we configure both Essbase & Oracle even if there are in different platforms?
Thanks in Advance.
Swathi.

  • Installing Essbase V11.1.2.1

    Hello,
    We currently have Essbase V9.3.0.1 installed on 64-bit Solaris SPARC. We are looking to install the latest version of Essbase V11.1.2.1 and only Essbase - not interested in any of the other products that seem to come along with it. Is this a possible migration path? I understand the documentation states there are certain migration paths, but it also seems to indicate that it is only if you are using licensing and provisioning, which we are not. We basically just want to install the new version and migrate the data/cubs over to the newest version.
    In one single folder I have downloaded all of the EPM products and the System Installer and I believe I have correctly installed just Essbase (and the Foundation Services - not sure if those are necessary). My biggest concern is that the previousl install path was /usr/local/essbase and when I installed EPM (which I assume is just a renamed Essbase) it installed to /essbase11121/Oracle/Middleware/… (etc). Just not sure if I have the correct product installed.
    Would anyone be able to point me in the direction of documentation and/or install binaries that will allow me to just install and run Essbase V11.1.2.1 so I can confirm with my team that it has been installed correctly.
    Thank you in advance for your help.

    John - thank you again for all your help.
    I reached out to someone on my team who is familiar with our current Essbase environment and they gave me this information and has a few questions about the migration/upgrade. If you or anyone could be of help with these, it would be greatly appreciated.
    In our current essbase setup we have applications configured under /usr/local/essbase/app/ folder and under it we have different folders for different applications. All these applications stores it's metadata , logs, data under the defined directory structure - we have stores data in files. So as you can see the path for the data file is /usr/local/essbase/app/APP_NAME/default - the .dat file is the data.
    Here, if you are planning to use the migration wizard , please try to check on the following points:
    1. You need to have the Existing 9.3.0 application in place along with the new version 11.1.2.1 in the same machine ? ( or in the same machine could we use the migration wizard with the same application name ? ) .
    2. Migration wizard should move all the artifacts (rule files, filters (user/group access) etc.
    Thanks again for all your help.

  • Essbase V11 : script launched with EAS didn't want to finish

    Hi,
    Since we migrate on Essbase v11 some one my old script launched with Essbase Administration Consol didn't want to finish however it's already finished in "Session" and result was ok !
    Same problem when I launched by MAXL some reports.
    The weirdest thing is when my coworker launched the same script on his computer in a same network park it's works fine. So it's not a network or policy problem.
    Do you know where the problem come ? I think it is a problem with Regestry database but I don't know where search.
    Thanks for your collaboration
    Regards,
    Yohan

    Dear Yohan,
    best would be to find out if this is always the case - your install does not work but the on of your co-worker does.
    You could test if you also see a difference between the installed EAS console and the Web launched console.
    If these two behave the same but are consistently different from your co-workers you may want to check/compare the JRE versions on
    your machine vs the one on your co-workers. See if there is a difference.
    Also make sure that your EAS Console connects to an EAS server of the same patch/version.
    There might be some slight hickups when using e.g a version 11.1.1.3.0*0* EAS Console against a version 11.1.1.3.0*4* EAS Server.
    Hope this helps

  • Essbase Studio v11.1.x compatibility with Essbase v9.3.1

    Hi
    Does any one know if we could use Essbase Studio in version 11.1.x with Essbase 9.3.2 ?
    Thanks for your answers...

    From what I checked in the available support matrices, at least 11.1.1, 11.1.1.1, and 11.1.2 do not support 9.3.X. The matrix for 11.1.1.3 does not have information related to release compatibility.
    The only version that supports a different release is 11.1.1.1, which says to support 11.1.1.X.

  • Trying (tried) to install Essbase v11.1.2.0.0

    The instructions below are for 11.1.1.3 - thought they were just slightly old and used them to download and configure v11.1.2.0.0
    http://timtows-hyperion-blog.blogspot.com/2010/01/windows-7-essbase-11113-installation.html
    I'm on Windows 7. So I downloaded, installed and configured. There were several problems but I figured them out. Found that I needed the Oracle 11g db and so downloaded and installed that.
    In addition, believed I needed the Windows Loopback Adapter and installed that. And at that point I thought I was good to go.
    I could login to essmsh (legacy maxl essbase language it seems) but wasn't able to login to the Essbase Administrations Services tool. What I wanted to do next was the examples:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?apb.htm
    and those require the Admin Services Console which I assume to be the same thing.
    Much fumbling around. Reinstalled - that didn't help.
    The I noticed: there are a lot more Essbase components listed under the 11.1.1.3 downloads than for 11.1.2.0.0.
    Where are the other components (in the newer version)? Have things been rearchitected? Don't know so what I'm trying now is to download and install 11.1.1.3 and see if that works any better.

    (is this the right place for these questions?).
    Uninstalled all of 11.1.2.0.0 and backed up to the previous version 11.1.1.3. 11.1.1.3 was an even bigger mess than 11.1.2.0.0 - I couldn't even get 11.1.1.3 configured. It seems that such things as the application server and apache are not bundled into the 11.1.1 install while they are bundled into 11.1.2. I've repeated this process a sufficient number of times now that I feel I can say this with some certainty.
    Went back to 11.1.2. Installed it and configured, all of which I was able to do before. And 11.1.2 is (as it should be) an improvement over 11.1.1.
    My original problem was logging into the Essbase Administration Services Console. It turns out that localhost, 127.0.01, and the hostname value are not all equivalent (this machine is getting its address via DHCP and I do have the Windows Loopback Adapter installed). I don't know yet what this all means but when I login to the EAS console with:
    server = hostname value
    login = admin
    password = what I set this value to during the install
    it works.
    In the Admin console, I've registered my local Essbase server. However I'm not able to connect to it:
    Single Sign On External Authentication is Disabled
    Google this, etc. I then figured out a bunch of stuff about where various files are. You need essbase.cfg which should point to (for the purpose of Single Sign On) CSS.XML.
    And that would seem to work to the point where I get the following in essbase.log:
    [Sun Jul 18 12:39:02 2010]Local/ESSBASE0///Error(1051223)
    Single Sign On function call [css_init] failed with error [CSS Error: CSS class not found: NativeCAppImpl]
    I've googled this but so far haven't figure it out. The above though should be more useful here in that it's very specific.
    Oracle db = 11.1.2
    Essbase 9.5 or whatever's the equivalent to 11.1.2
    on Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit

  • Essbase V11.1.1.2.0

    I noticed the OTN download (Evaluation)  does not have Essbase Admin 11.1.1.2.0, though it does have Essbase Provider services, client & server downloads for Essbase. The  Essbase V9.3.1 does  have  all the modules.    Can anyone explain why the Essbase  Admin is missing on V11.1.1.2.0 ?

    Hi John and all the others here,
    As long as I work with essbase (since 2001)
    it was possible to intall it on a mobile workstation too as a playing/lerning/education instance.
    I loved this opportunity.
    Is this still possible (means hat anyone experience with) installing essbase 11.x (and the stuff close around it)
    on a workstation (WinXP Prof 32bit, 3 GB RAM).
    Or can someone say that it's definitely (im)possible to make it run.
    If there where at least a small likelihood I would like to try it out.
    Please let me know.
    Thanks in advance and Best Regards

  • Backwards and upwards compatibility on essbase, EAC and Analyzer

    we have running essbase/analyzer/EAC 7.1 environment and a running essbase/planning 9.3.1 environment.
    It occurs to us that modifying the 9.3.1 environment with the EAS7.1 tool results in a essbase crash (without any information in the essbase log files).
    Is there any information for essbase about upwards and backwards compatibility from 7.1 and 9.3.1.

    In addition to Nathan's comments this would be a platform that Oracle hasn't regression tested. So even if it were to appear to work if you encountered an issue Oracle would be justified and asking you to re-create the same issue on a supported platform.
    In my opinion if this is a production application this is a risk you should not take.
    If you are playing with an internal environment and want to learn more about Win2K8 that's one thing. Realizing most folks will give you the "It's not supported line" when you start asking why EPMA, FDM, and HFM do not work with IIS 7.x

  • System 9 Add-in compatibility with Essbase previous versions

    Hello,
    Is it possible to connect to Essbase 6.5 with the excel Add-in of version System 9 (Smart View for Office)?
    Thanks for your help

    As Robert indicated, you may be able to connect with the classic Excel add-in. You will not be able to connect using Smartview.
    BTW, just because you can connect, that doesn't mean that everything will work properly. Further, Tech Support will tell you it is unsupported if you have any issues and try to get tech support to help you.

  • Export data in cloumn format in Essbase v11.1.1

    Hi Everybody,
    I have installed essbase 11.1.1 in my personal desktop recently, to understand the new features and I observe dataexport in column format is not working as intended. When i select option called "export in column format" data is not exporting in cloumn format, exporting in blocks(normal export). In version 7.1.6 we did data export several times using column format and data was exported in cloumn format.
    Do i need to change any settings in cfg file to export data in cloumn format?
    Please some one share your views on this?
    Thanks,
    Ram

    Export in SQLLoader format has been changed to generate the data in a separate file from the control file. This was done as there are restrictions in the data that can be embedded in the control file. You should now find two files generated for each loader format export: a .ldr and a .ctl file.

  • Office 2007 compatibility with essbase 7.1.0

    Hi All,
    Recently our user group has been upgraded to Office 2007 from office 2003 and Present essbase version is 7.1.0.
    I think officialy there will be no compatility of excel 2007 with essbase 7.x versions.
    I have seen some posts that classic essbase client 9.3.1 supports with essbase 7.x versions, though oracle will not provide any support if there are any issues.
    can anybody have any ideas, that i can suggest to client.
    Regards,
    Stally.

    Hi,
    If you are using Excel 2007 please follow below instructions to set up the (Essbase client)Excel addin 7.x.
    After installing Essbase addin
    Go into Excel 2007 "Excel Options. and select Add-ins. Go to Excel Addin. Browse.
    You'll need to manually load 2 files.
    1: Browse and go to C:/Program Files/Office12/1033/Exptoows.xla OK (It will install into the add-in list.) This may install through the install wizard
    2: Browse and go to C:/Hyperion/Essbase/Bin/Essexcln.xll OK (It will install into the add-in list.)
    Now you can see Essbase tab when you open Excel...

  • ITunes compatability v 10 + v11 in shared NAS

    I have moved all my music files to a Western Digital Network drive. This drive runs as a iTunes server.
    I have sourced the files from a Mac (OS 10.5.8) running iTunes v10 , and a Mac (10.6.8) running iTunes v11, two Windows 7 PCs running iTunes v11. I have followed the instructions as to copying files to the correct location on the WD drive, and set iTunes server "ON".
    When I start either versions v10 and v11, only the v11 music files can be found in the "Shared" sidebar, under the network drive name.
    I cannot update iTunes on the mac (OS 10.5.8) as there is no updates available.
    Does this mean that v11 music files have been altered to work with the new version, and the v10 files are now orphans????
    Or maybe a problem with the WD drive iTunes server????

    I now have a Mybook live where Itunes from both mac and PC runs OK to Itunes server in HDD. However it took about 7 days for Itunes server to publish Itunes 10 music files.
    My Mybookworld just spins and spins when trying to connect.
    I contacted WD and got this response.
    We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, we will be more than glad to assist you with this issue. Please keep in mind that in order for you to use the iTunes server on your My Book Live you must use the iTunes version 10.2 or earlier, please see the links below for more information:

    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?

  • Essbase Excel Addin on 64 Bit Windows 7 and 64 bit Office 2010

    Hi Everyone,
    I have installed 11.1.2.2 on server with Essbase and Shared Services.
    Now, on the client I have 64 bit Windows 7 and 64 bit office 2010.
    I tried installing Excel Addin client only (without Essbase client) and restarted machine after install.
    After install Addin didnt come up automatically and i tried to manually set the add-in, I'm getting an error "This is not a valid add-in"
    Is it because i am using 64 bit of office and have to go back to 32 bit.
    Isnt 64 bit supported for latest 11.1.2.2 Essbase ?
    Any ideas or experience in this regard will be helpful to me as our company is going for Windows 7 and Office 2010 across the business users and if 64 bit Office is not supported or has issues i would have to suggest them to go with 32 bit Office 2010.
    Thank you.

    for 64 bit i guess its not avaiable for 2010 excel

  • Essbase Add-In Drill Down Error

    Hi
    When double clicking to zoom down in excel, excel crashes. I can use other features ok, and s/sheet retrieves ok if I select members first. I am using;
    Essbase V11.1.1.3
    Windows XP SP3 (recently upgraded from SP2)
    Excel 2003
    Hyperion components (Essbase databases / Planning / Reporting / Shared Services) are hosted on virtual servers.
    I have tried uninstalling Smart View and reinstalling Essbase on my laptop, but Excel still crashes.
    Although I recently installed SP3 (and this may coincide with the error), other users in the company also upgraded to SP3 are unaffected.
    Not sure how to uninstall the add-in, but did deselect, the reselect the add-in (Tools - Add-Ins).
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    3. Copied the .dll files from the bin folder above to the c:\Windows\System32 folderThis solved your problem for now but may cause you further headaches in the future if and when you upgrade. I strongly recommend that users resolve the issue with the PATH statement so the appropriate files are found first in the essbase\bin directory structure.
    When I have seen this in the past, it was discovered by running SysInternals Process Manager, finding the appropriate process, then looking at the dlls, their versions and load directories, and seeing that mismatched dll versions were loaded into memory at the same time. That is almost guaranteed to crash.

  • Problems with extract metadata from Essbase with ODI 10.1.3.5.

    Hello there, I have a really annoying problem. I have 2 dimensions in essbase v11 with a space on it, (Itens Financeiros and Centros Financeiros), and this is causing a problem when I try to extract the metadata from essbace to a table. the problem occurs some times in 3 - loading - ss_0 - begin essbase metadata extract and some times in 4 - loading ss_0 - extract metadata, but in this 2 steps the error is the same:
    unknown member name [itens] in function [@idescendants]. I see in Johns blog someone sayng to add a '/"' in the front and at the end of the member filter criteria to allow ODI to parse the space as part of the member name. but I really don't understand this. Someone can helpme with this? Thanck you.

    It doesn't matter, I am able to replicate with an older version of the essbase adaptor...
    I take it this is the type of error you are receiving "com.hyperion.odi.essbase.ODIEssbaseException: Extract operation failed : Cannot query members by specs. Analytic Server Error(1200497): Error parsing formula for [REGION DEFINITION"
    If you download patch - Patch 8785893: ORACLE DATA INTEGRATOR 10.1.3.5.2_02 ONE-OFF PATCH
    It is easy to install just a matter of copying a jar file over an existing one in the \oracledi\drivers directory.
    It should resolve the issue.
    Ok?
