EAS without Shared Services

Hi Guys,
in former Essbase 11 and Essbase 9 Versions it was possible to remove the shared services authentication by modifing the OlapAdmin.properties file.
After an successfull 11.1.2.0 installation I can't find that file anymore.
Does anybody know of another way to bring EAS back to native security mode in version 11.1.2.0?
Thank you very much!
Best Regards
Thomas

Hi,
It may be stored in the shared services registry.
You can export property, update and then import back in using LCM
Log into HSS, expand application groups > Foundation > Deployment Metadata
Expand Shared Services Registry > Essbase > LWA -eas@... Tick properties
Run the migration and will create a files in
Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\import_export\admin@Native Directory\EAS\resource\Shared Services Registry\Essbase\LWA - eas....
Have a look in the property files generated see if it is in there.
I have not tried this by the way, Oracle may have changed to force to use shared services mode now, if I get a chance I will look into it further unless somebody else knows the exact location.
Cheers

Unregister EAS from Shared Services

Hi Together,
I've a problem that an installation over an existing installation (same version) registered my eas to shared services what I don't want to have.
I red in the documentation of EAS that the backwords way isn't possible.
Somebody got a trick to bring EAS back to native security?
Thank you very much
//Thomas

Hi,
Your question is not clear. First of all, EAS will not be in native security mode. Essbase will be native security mode. From my undrestanding, I think you have externalized essbase security to shared services. If you want to bring that security back to native essbase, then:
1. Stop essbase server.
2. Go to $HyperionHome/AnalyticServices/bin
3. rename the existing Essbase.sec to Essbase.sec.X
4. copy essbase.bak_preUPM as Essbase.sec
5. Start essbase server.
Hope this helps!

Unregister Essbase/EAS from Shared services

Hi Is it possible to unregister essbase, EAS from shared services? if so can some one please guide me unregister. we are on EPM 11.1.1.3
Thanks

Hi,
I've a similar issue with my customer.
In fact we have an an application with several databases and end users have read access on one, write acces on another and finally calculation accesses (but only on few calc scripts) on the last database.
SO, in shared security mode we can't reach all these requirements, beacause access are granted at the Essbase application level.
Therefore, the only solution I've found to put Essbase in stand-alone mode is to drop the essbase.sec file and recreate the essbase applications thanks to EAS or maxl commands.
For EAS I've found a topic on this forum, and the solution is to edit the olapadmin.properties file on the installation path of EAS server and to swith the value HUBProvisionEnabled=true at false.
You have to stop and start the services to do that but it works. And when started, you can use the EAS default login.

Can we install and use Essbase 9.3.1 without Shared services ?

Hi All,
we need to have two different database schemas for Shared services and EAS. But we are currently having only one schema, so we started to install and configure with out using Shared services. Finally i have installed and configured EAS, Server and client. While configuring , i left the shared services part as we don't have another schema to use for that.
When i logged into the Essbase environment, i tried to add a server, it was done. now when i tried to create an application under that sever.under the create option "application" is in disable state and rest are enabled.
I am not getting where i went wrong.IS that the reason,i have not installed and configured Shared services
Can anyone please let me know the reason to which i am failing to create a new application under the newly added server.
Regards

Hi,
1. You need not install and configure shared services , if you intend to work only on essbase.
2. In version 9, if you had installed essbase server, and have essbase admin server along with essbase administration sevices ( i.e EAS) , you are good to work on essbase.
3. No need of shared serives, and even no need of any schema to configure, if you dont want to use shared services for managing users.
4. The reason for failure? Pls send logs that would help

Can we configure EAS and Shared services wih out a Database

Hi All,
Can any one please let me know if we can configure Essbase administration servies ans Shared services with out giving Database details while configuring.
If Database schema is not yet ready to use, is it possible to configure EAS and login to Essbase to create an outline with dimension building and Dataloading.
Regards

Hi,
I doubt it as when you start up the web applications they try and communicate with the databases, if they fail then the web app won't start up fully.

Shared Services Registration Failed While Re-Configuring EAS

Hi
I was re-configuring EAS and my shared services and deployment failed.I reached out to oracle and they gave me a solution to delete the HBR instances.
But when I try to open the url in microsoft word it opens in html format .And i am unable to delete any HBR instance.What is the correct way to do it?
The solution offered by Oracle Support:
To resolve this issue, do the following steps:
1. Log into the User management console using the URL http://localhost:58080/interop/index.jsp.
2. Append the URL to show the files http://localhost:58080.interop/content/files
3. Copy this URL and open in Microsoft Word. (file->open option in MS Word)
4. Provide username (admin) and password (password).
5. Check in AdminProjects, Products and Projects folders for the files and folders related to HBR and delete any occurences.
6. Save and close the file.
7. Restart the services.
8. Configure EAS with Shared Services using the config utility.
9. For Business Rules to work, go to \Hyperion\AnalyticAdministration\storage\easuser location and delete all contents from the easusers folder.
10. Restart the EAS server.
Thanks

I never really used the method with word and always used davexplorer which can be downloaded from http://www.davexplorer.org/download.html
Follow the rest of the instructions which you posted to delete HBR.
Cheers

Hi,
Have you tried running the sync option in shared services, this syncs shared services repository with open ldap.
Administration > Sync Native Directory.
I am not how succesful it will be now you have been registering and provisioning again but worth a try.

Essbase App disappering in Shared Services v 11.1.2.2

We are having an issue where Apps mysteriously disappear from Shared services - it has happened 3 times now. One day they are there and the next day they are not. I have tried to register them in EAS but I receive an error message:
Error: 1051432: Failed to add application [dir_srvA] to project at Shared Services with Error [Application not found.]
We are on the brink of a full roll-out and this is very concerning to me.
Any insight out there?
We run v 11.1.2.2 on an aix 5..3 platform.
Thanks!
- Mike

Error: 1051432 Failed to add application [appname] to project at Shared Services with Error [Application not found.]
Cause
Security is not synchronized between Shared Services, Essbase and Essbase Administration Services (EAS).
This application does not display in EAS or Shared Services.
Solution
To remove the application from the Shared Services Registry:
1. Backup the Relational Database used by Shared Services.
2. Navigate to \Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem\bin.
3. Delete application from registry using command from cmd window:
epmsys_registry deletecomponent #{appname}_EssbaseCluster-1_1.ESBAPP
4. Create the application in EAS.
Hope it helps...

Shared services security and essbase security

recently upgraded to sys 9 and now use shared services 931
we used to have security at essbase level previously and now its all Shared services..
now i have so many concerns
Can we automate the security just like I used to automate in essbase earlier...
or can we automate secuirty in essbase and them sync it to Shared services??
I know that we change security settings in SS and then sync it to essbase but is the other way around possible???
IF yes HOW?
IF NOT - can we automate SS security which reflects to essbase...
I have to go through the prod doc and I'll do that very soon but any suggestion on this would really help me out..
Thanks in advance

Hi,
can you please write more about which products and version are you using and on which operating system name and version.
Why do you use Shared Services? Are you using only Essbase server or any other server? If you use only Essbase server there is probably no need of using Shared Services.
If you need only Essbase you can see my info about installing Essbase without Shared Services: hyperion essbase installation
Please provide more info, so that we on forum can help you.

Could anyone give us an advice how to fix it?
Thanks,

Hi Amith,
Before configuring EAS with Shared Services, please verify following:-
1- Installaed relational database repository (SQL Server, Oracle, DB2).
2- Create a database called hypdb in database repository.
3- Create user called hypuser with valide password who has access on this database.
4- Also ensure service related to database repository is running.
Now try to configure EAS with SS. Hope it will help you.

About Shared Services

Hi,
I need some clarification about Shared Services. Let us assume Shared Services down in my Environment. I have Admin Authorization. So, My question is - Is it possible to login to the Essbase as a ADMIN and Is it possible to work on applications in Essbase. Without Shared services, Is it possible to login to Essbase and Planning as a ADMIN?
I didn't face this issue. Just i need to know about it.
Thanks,
Nagesh

Sorry it took time to write a post
Anyway
Without starting shared services ...you cant access Essbase application
starting from 7 to 11x series
The way of shared services is moulded
9.2>Open LDAP and shared services
9.3> same
9.5> foundation OLAP & foundation Shared services
11 is actually 9.5 version since oracle bought Hyperion (no much change aprt from installation Though)
then 11.1.2.1 u have direct foundation which includes shared services and LDAP services
not sure about 11.1.2.2
To all of above versions i would say u need to start Shared services which will talk directly or indirectly to essbase server
