Dynamic members in Smartview

Hi,
Is it possible to set dynamic members (not dynamic time series) in smartview for Essbase datasource,if so how to create it.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Glenn,
Sorry my question was vague, Is it possible to have dynamic column members based on the filter selected by the user, (for an example, if we have given the option to search for certain categories1,2,3,4....etc, the user may be interested to see category1,2 and the next time the user may be interested to see catergory 1,3,4.
Would it be possible o do in smartview.

Clear data in ASO - Dynamic Members

Folks,
I've been trying to clear partial data in my ASO cube but encountered this error -
ERROR 1013358 - Dynamic members are not allowed in data clear region specification
There are few dimensions which are tagged as Dynamic and few members have formulas on them. Is it possible to exclude those members in the Maxl script or any better way of doing it?
I read a post where Glenn mentioned he used an exclude clause but I'm not familiar with the usage.
Thank you!

Why do you want to clear dynamic members? Clear out the members that you dynamic member is based off.

Create SCOM Group with dynamic members about 10minutes !

in our SCOM 2012 SP1 (CU3) environment with about 800 Windows Agents.
OperationsDB on a Windows Cluster (2 physical server with 2 processors (six cores). Datawarehouse on separate cluster.
When i create a group with dynamic members, it took about 10min. During this period all the consoles are busy and freezing.
Is that normal ?

Can't modify the display of members in SmartView

Hi,
When I want to change the display of my members in SmartView (Hyperion->Options->Display) to display only the members name and/or aliases, I can't change it. The option is not selectable.
Can you help me please ?
Thanks.
Virgile.

You don't write what release of SV you're on or the tool you're going against, but I'll give you v11 and Essbase and try to remember 9.3.1's approach.
In 11, if you've made a particular database a Favorite in the Common Provider Services, you should be able to right click on the Essbase database and select "Change Alias Table" or something very much like that.
If the database is not added as a favorite, retrieve to the sheet, and then go to the Hyperion->Ad-Hoc Retrieve->Change Alias Table selection (doing that from memory, but I think that's it).
Lastly, if this is 9x, before you connect (maybe after? it's been a while), open Connection Manager, and right click n the connection name. A pop up menu will appear -- select "Change Alias Table".

Clear ASO region with dynamic members

I have a problem in clearing a region in an Oracle ESSBASE ASO cube that returns in an error like:
dynamic members are not allowed in data clear region specification
when i try to execute this query
alter database 'aso'.'db' clear data in region '{CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin(CrossJoin({[var1]},{[var2]}),{[var3]}),{[var4]}),{[var5]}),{[a],[b ],[c],[d]}),{Descendants([node],Levels([dim1],0))}),{Descendants([dim2],Levels([dim3],0))}),{Descendants([dim4],Levels([node1],0))}),{Descendants([dim5],Levels([node2],0))})}' physical;
In my case there are level 0 dynamic members in dim5.
As you can see i tried the "physical" approach as found in some oracle forums but with without success. I want to work at leaf level for each node, excluding the ones marked as dynamic. How can I achieve this? How can I exclude from the query dynamic members in the hyerarchy and, as in my case, only dynamic leaf?
Help is very appreciated.
Thank you
Edited by: user9289301 on Feb 23, 2013 12:46 PM

There are two things I have done.
1. Move all of the dynamically calcualted members under a a parent like statistical, then for Dim 5 I wuld do the level zero members except the statistics parent
2. put a UDA on each of the members with formulas then exclude them.(You could conversely put a uda on members without formulas and select only those

MDX query performance on ASO cube with dynamic members

We have an ASO cube and we are using MDX queries to extract data from that cube. We are doing some performance testing on the MDX data extract.
Recently we made around 15-20 account dimension members dynamic in the ASO cube, and it is taking around 1 and a half hour for the query to run on an empty cube. Earlier the query was running in 1 minute on the empty cube when there were no dynamic members in the cube.
Am not clear why it takes so much time to extract data from MDX on an empty cube when there is nothing to extract. The performance has also degraded while extracting data on the cube with data in it.
Does dynamic members in the outline affect the MDX performance? Is there a way to exclude dynamic members from the MDX extract?
I appreciate any insights on this issue.

I guess it depends on what the formulas of those members in the dynamic hierarchy are doing.
As an extreme example, I can write a member formula to count every unique member combination in the cube and assign it to multiple members, regardless if I have any data in the database or not, that function is going to resolve itself when you query it and it is going to take a lot of time. You are probably somewhere in between there and a simple function that doesn't require any over head. So without seeing the MDX it is hard to say what about it might be causing an issue.
As far as excluding members there are various function in MDX to narrow down the set you are querying
Filter(), Contains(), Except(), Is(), Subset(), UDA(), etc.
Keep in mind you did not make members dynamic, you made a hierarchy dynamic, that is not the same thing and it does impact the way Essbase internally optimizes the database based on Stored vs dynamic hierarchies. So that alone can have an impact as well.

Dynamically updating members in SmartView

Hi all,
I've got a pretty simple requirement that I've been trying to thrash out in SmartView with Smart Slices and Queries but I'm just missing something obvious I'm sure.
I'm trying to show my hierarchy in the columns with 2 unnecessary generations excluded from the view (they will eventually be removed - this is an interim solution)
E.g. the hierarchy currently looks like this in the column (Where ">" is the indent showing generation) :
">Products
     >>Cars
     >>>     Mod_A
     >>>>          Mod_A_2011
     >>>>>               Mod_A_11_5dr
     >>>>>               Mod_A_11_4dr
     >>>     Mod_B
     >>>>          Mod_B_2011
     >>>>>               Mod_B_11_3dr
     >>>>>               Mod_B_11_5dr
But I want it to show:
"> Products
     >>Cars
     >>>     Mod_A
     >>>>>               Mod_A_11_5dr
     >>>>>               Mod_A_11_4dr
     >>>     Mod_B
     >>>>>               Mod_B_11_3dr
     >>>>>               Mod_B_11_5dr
So rather than showing Gen 1, 2, 3, 4 & 5
I just want to see Gen 1, 2, 3 & 5.
If A new product is added at Gen 5 (which is Lev0) then I want it to appear, so if "Mod_C_11_3dr" was added, It needs to automatically update and appear the next time the report/slice/spreadsheet is opened as per:
"> Products
     >>Cars
          >>>Mod_A
                    >>>>Mod_A_11_5dr
                    >>>>Mod_A_11_4dr
          >>>Mod_B
                    >>>>Mod_B_11_3dr
                    >>>>Mod_B_11_5dr
          >>>Mod_C
                    >>>>Mod_C_11_3dr
I cant seem to find a way to automate the above without having to go and reselect the creation criteria.
Can anyone offer any suggestions or point me to some reading on this?
Regards
Ed

Just in case anyone is sadistic enough to want to know how I got around some of this:
I managed to get a work around for viewing just the levels of the hierarchy I wanted by tagging all relevant members of the hierarchy at the relevant level with attributes then using subsets in the member selection window in SmartView to call just those levels.
I wasn't able however to automate this process so that on creation of a new member it would automatically appear in the report next time it was opened. I'd still love to hear if anyone is able to do that!

Ed

Aliases for shared members in Smartview

Hi All Gurus,
I am using Oracle EPM 11.1.2.3. I migrated an EPMA planning application from 11.1.2.2 to 11.1.2.3. The Alias for Shared members are not getting displayed When I access through Smartview ,instead it is showing as [Parent].[child] . But When I access the same application in 11.1.2.2, I can see the Alias.
How to fix this?

It is been identified as a bug have a read of this Oracle - Hyperion Labs......: Smart View issues with alternate Hierarchy - Surprises in Essbase Part V

Wants to get the dynamic members of a cluster

 Hi,
 How could I, within a member of a cluster, get the dynamic list of the others
 members of the cluster?
 Thanks


You can use JMX in 6.1. I don't know the location of the doc on that
 specific item though.

Dynamic members in time dimension

Hi All, In my outline, time dimension is sparse. and i kept certainhigher level members as dynamic calc. But, when I checked thedatabase information, it shows that all members in time dimensionas stored, even though some of them are dynamic calc. Any Idea? Thanks in advance,

OK...I poked around and found this in our Support database:In the database statistics, a sparse dynamic calcmember will be counted as a stored member, whilst a dense dynamiccalc member will not be counted as stored. This is normalbehavior.Although Dynamic Calc members are calculated on dataretrieval, they are considered stored members because new blocksare created upon their retrieval.An implicit or explicit shared member would not qualify as astored member because they share data and calculated values fromthe original member.This is a publicly accessible database for our customers onsupport, so you can contact them for access if desired.

Input data into dynamic calc in Planning forms

Hi guys,
Have someone tried to combine these two requirements:
1. to have upper level members dynamic calc
2. to give users the ability to input data into those upper level members through Planning forms.
I need to do that in order to pass inputted values into HBR, and allocate those values to the leaf level across multiple dimensions. I need those members dynamic calc because otherwise I would need to aggregate data across 7 dimensions and that takes too long. Those allocations are suposed to happen constantly and are the main purpose of application.
I know you can have dummy stored members that correspond the uper level dynamic members, but then the user will have input forms without current data and will be required to check reports/forms with dynamic calc members prior to updating data.
I wonder if it is a realistic task to change jsp files that generate those forms, so that data can be inputed into the form, but instead of passing it to Essbase cube to send it to relational database.
P.S.
This is related to the thread I opened about optimizing recalculation time:
Recalculatiion takes much longer than initial calculation
I received a lot of valuable advices that would definitely work in other situations, but in my case they seem to contradict either user concurrent access or performance requirements.
Thanks a lot!
Dmitry

Hi Glenn,
I think i found a workaround for this, or may be i am missing something. I will replicate my hierarchies so that one hierarchy will have uper level stored members, and another dynamic calc. Once user loads the form it will run on-load script that will copy data from corresponding dynamic calc to stored slice. The updated data will be alocated to the leaf level, but will never be aggregated. Since reporting is done from ASO cube i only care about the leaf level and current selection in the form.
Thanks!

Hyperion Planning and Smartview : Build function HS Description

Dear all,
I am currently using Hyperion planning 11.1.2.2, I would like to display in excel adhoc reports the description of some dimension members via smartview.
To this end I used the "build function" functionality:
I selected an empty cell and call the functionality, a window appears with two parameters :
1-connection : this field is automatically filed (WSFN|HP|pc|Planning|Plan1)
2-Member List : I would like to fil it manually ex : "Account#100"
I click on validate : the following message appears : Selected connection does not support this function.select new connection.
I would like to know what is meant by connection? what is the syntax of the connection string? could you please provide an example?
Thank you
Best regards.
Toufik
Edited by: user11081975 on May 12, 2013 12:55 PM

Hsdescription is not supported by Planning connection.
You can use that with Essbase connection.
Read http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/sv_user/ch17s01s08s15.html
It talks about what are shared and private connections.

Business Rules - Selecting Members

Hope somebody can help me with an issue I am facing. When I run/validate a Business Rule and when I try to select a member, I encounter the following:
Some parent level members have a lock symbol and cannot be selected
Some zero level members have a green lock symbol and cannot be selected
Other member (parent and zero level) without the lock symbol works with no issues
The members with locks beside them were created a while back and calculations in those members appear to be correct. However, why can’t I select them to run? How can I fix the issue?
Thank you

John,
The prompt is for @IDESCENDANTS( [GeoPrompt] ) so it should include everything in the GEO dimension. Additionally, I am logged on as ADMIN so I think it should not be limited by security. Also, using the same credentials, I can access all members through smartview and the webforms. Is there a standalone module in Business Rules that can be causing the issue?
Thank you.

Dynamic query disappears from group

Hi All,
I've created a group within my SCOM deployment and wanted to add Windows servers to this group dynamically, using a Dynamic inclusion Rule.
However when I create the rule and click apply, it seems to save (it also says populating the group members).
But when I check the group via the "view group members" actions, it is empty..
The formula I've added is a very simple one: ( NetBIOS Domain Name Equals 'domainname' )
When I check back on the tab for Dynamic Members, then I don't see my rule anymore.
It seems as if it didn't get saved.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks
Filip

Apparently SCOM removes the query in the GUI if it's invalid. Sadly, SCOM doesn't notify you of this, so I was pulling my hair out trying to find out why this was happening.
To be able to build the query requested above, I've created the following query:
Object is Windows Server 2008 Logical Disk
And Group
Display Name Equals S:
Or Group
    Windows Computer.DNS Name matches wildcard WEBNY*
    Windows Computer.DNS Name matches wildcard SQLNY*
    etc
The above query works for Logical Disk 2008. For 2012 Logical Disks, use the appropriate Class. To get the Windows Computer.DNS Name just hit Insert and in the dropdown menu go down to (Host = Windows Computer). This should do the trick to only find disks
belonging (or not, depending on the query) to the targeted computers.
Membership should update almost instantly.

Can i hide members for users?

I need, if is possible, hide several members in outline, so that users do not see this members in SmartView. I'm the admin of Essbase and i don't know if is possible. Thanks.
Essbase: v11.1.1.2

Hi,
May I ask the reason behind this? I've never heard of this feature. One option is to assign security to these accounts so the users would see them but would not be able to see any data. they would get #No Access when they retrieve data for these members (you probably already knew this)
Another option could be to create another app/db with a different hierarchy, but then it could be hard to maintain it.
Those are the options that come to my mind.
Cheers,
Mehmet
