EIS Data load

Hi all,
I am bit confused about loading data via EIS. We have two process one is to load data via rule file hisdld created by EIS and second is using user defined sql query. Are both these methods independent of each other or not?
When i say independent i mean if we make some changes in user defined sql and load data are those changes first refelected in the rule file and then data load process occurs using this rule file or data load occurs just via sql quey we run
It would be great if somebody could clarify the same.
Thanks in advance!!

Thanks for the reply.
Yes i am talking about sql query within EIS so if i understood it right by your post if i make changes to that user defined sql code(within EIS ) it will make the changes in the data load rule file created by EIS i.e "hisdld". So If we talk of a data load process within EIS the User defined sql is used to create data load rule "hisdld" and hence they are dependant on each other.

  • EIS data load via rules file

    Hi,
    PLease let me know the process to control the EIS data load into essbase using a rules file. I did not find the option in EIS. please help me.
    Thanks,
    pr

    In EIS
    1) You have to define the Logical OLAP Model connecting to the relational source.It defines the joins between fact table and dimension tables.
    2) Based on the OLAP Model You have to create meta outline which defines the rules for loading members and data into essbase.

  • EIS data load slow

    Greetings all,
    Windows Server 2003 SP2. SQL Server 2000 SP3. Hyperion 9.3.1.
    I am running an EIS data load, and the load time is progressively longer depending on the number of records loaded.
    For example, when doing a data load of 1,000,000 records, it takes 2 minutes to load the first 500,000 records but an additional 10 minutes to load the next 500,000 records.
    Is there any reason for this, and can I do anything about it?
    Regards,
    Paul.

    Since non-Streaming mode is the only mode that EIS leverages to load data, it's not surprising that- Data loads are slow.
    If you want to continue using EIS for data loads, I believe- All you can do is- To refine/tune your User-defined SQL.
    You've mentioned about just few million records. However, in the volume-intensive environments where records are in the order of hundreds/thousands of millions, the majority would think of using EIS only for Metadata load & deferring data load to the flat file data extracts, which is way faster. At the same time, you'd have to consider if the extraction time required is not too much that it defeats the very purpose.

  • EIS data load problem

    Hi,
    I use user defined sql to do a data load using EIS 7x
    When i run the sql in toad just to see the data I see 70000 rows
    But when I use the same sql in the userdefined sql and try to load data...I dont know why EIS says that it loaded around 69000 rows and also I see no rejections...
    I even made some sql changes to find out what are the records that are not being loaded..and I see some rows when I run a sql in toad and if i use the same in EIS its not loading those rows which I can see in toad for the same sql ...
    This is very strange.. Can any one help me with this,..??

    Glenn-
    I dont think there is anything unique about the missing rows..
    Actually the a part of code has been added to the previously working view(which i use to load data) to bring in some additional data...
    I took that part and tried to load data...and I see no data being loaded or rejected..
    It just says that records loaded "0"..rejected 0...
    but the same part brings in the required additional data... when exectued in toad..
    and about the excel sheet lock and send..I did that a week and as you said to my surprise it loads everything....
    This was the test bu which I figured out that EIS is not even able to load a part of data...and I found the exact part of data by going through it closely..
    So I think this is something to do with sql interface..
    And I did not understand the last lines in your post...
    /////I know when I do regular Sql interface some data types don;t load and I have to convert them to varchar tto get them to work. If the Excel file and Flat file loads work, look at that//////
    what did convert to varchar???
    Excel load works fine..So I think its something similar to what you mentioned in your post...
    Can you please explain it ...

  • EIS data load issue (04/24).

    Hi,
    I am trying to load data using EIS 7.1 to an ASO cube. The log says load was done successfully and that aggregation failed. However, there is no data at the zero level after the load (which could be why aggregation failed). It was running successfully earlier. I changed a dimension from Multiple Hierarchy to Dynamic...not sure if this caused the problem. What are the potential causes? Please help.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Try this:
    1. Backup model and metaoutlines
    2. Open model, delete connection (and dimension for which You are having a problem)
    3. Save model (open again and add the dimension)
    4. Open one of Your metaoutlines and do the same with this dimension
    5. save it and make test
    Please let me know if it works fine (I have such a problem and usualy it was the right solution :) )
    regards
    Karol

  • EIS data load rejects

    Is there a way to find out if there were any dataload rejects after the EIS dataload when running using scripts?
    If I use the EIS console and run the load then I can see the number of records loaded and rejected, but is there a way to find out about this info if we are running the load using EIS scripts?

    Hi,
    I think Donald has already mentioned the answer in his above post, although indirectly.
    All you've to do is-
    (i) Before your cube refresh starts, delete all the folders(corresponding to the cube you're loading) from loadinfo folder
    (ii) After your load completes, let your batch script check if any new folder is created for the cube you're loading. If yes, there're errors/rejections. Else, your load is successful!

  • EIS data load issue

    I have a dimension in the metaoutline as given below heirrachyORG ~ -> State ~ -> Division ~ -> Agency ~ -> Agent ~ I am able to build the heirrarchy in this order , but the data that I load needs a diffirent filter on each dimension level for example : For state load data where type = 5For division load data where type = 4For agency load data where type = 3For Agent load data where type = 2 When I put a filter on each level it uses the 'AND' operator which I do not want. Please advice how this can be accomplished in EISThanksande

    Load the member data in four different passes and set the appropriate filter for each pass. The filter on the first pass would be where type = 5, on the second pass where type = 4, and so on.

  • EIS 6.2 Data load

    We are upgrading to EIS 6.2. I've set up an outline that mirrors our production outline and can perform a member load without errors. The data load also runs without errors, the problem is no data gets loaded. I have cut and paste the SQL query the EIS generates from the log file and used it the query the Oracle database. It returns valid data. Has anyone had this data load issue with EIS 6.2. I checked the log file after the data load and I cannot find any errors.

    have you tried putting that working SQL statement in the user defined sql and using it for the data load? what do the loadinfo/dataload.txt files say (if anything)

  • EIS to Essbase data load process

    I have two user defined queries in a metaoutline. When i perform dataload operation from EIS, the Essbase application log says that dataload updated [] cells and Data Load Elapsed Time [] seconds but the EIS dataload process is still running. It seems that Essbase is loading the data only for the first query and completing dataload while EIS is still running second query.Has anyone else experienced this problem? Essbase and EIS both are 6.5.0.

    In EIS
    1) You have to define the Logical OLAP Model connecting to the relational source.It defines the joins between fact table and dimension tables.

  • In EIS at data loading Few Records are getting rejected

    Hello,
    I m loading the data in Essbase through EIS.I am using user defined SQL for data loading.
    In log this this is showing that 22000 records are loaded and 564 records rejected.
    Can any Expert let me know why these records are getting rejected.
    Thx
    Shivendra

    If you look on your EIS server, under hyperion\eis there is a logfiles directory. Under it are folders for every load. In these folders are the error files. If you look at the file, the first column shows you the member that got rejected. You can then look to see if it is in your outline. My guess is your custom sql is bringing back rows that are not in the cube

  • All data load records rejected by EIS

    I have a very strange behavior with EIS:
    We used to successfully build an Essbase cube (V6.5.3) from a SQL 2000 database using EIS (V6.5.4).
    A few weeks ago we doubled the size of a dimension (from about 13000 members to 27000) by adding a new branch exclusively based on shared members (no increase in the data).
    Since then, most of the time (but not all the time !) the data load rejected absolutely all the records.
    I can certify that the records are OK. When we try to reduce this dimension to smaller parts, each individual section can be built and loaded successfully. But when loading everything, EIS reject all the data records.
    We were able to do the full load only once or twice just after having restarted EIS...
    Did anybody already faced such problem ? Are you aware of a limit in the number of members EIS can handle in one dimension ?
    Thanks for any tips or workaround about this issue that becomes very critical for us.
    Best regards,
    Stephane

    i faced some similar problem AIS 9.3.0.1
    once check the rul file for data load in essbase.EIS automatically creates one rul file for data loading.

  • Automate EIS dim builds and data loads

    I want to automate the dimesion builds and data loads from my ETL tool (DTS). I have not been able to find anything about scripting EIS automation in the documentation. Is there any?

    what you can do is create go into EIS metadata outline and create a member load and data load script. Do this by selecting the Outline menu item, then select member load. click next, on this screen, select only save load script. Click the button "Save scripts" to give it a name. click finish. repeat for the dataload script. (If you are using ASO cubes, you must use separate scripts, you can't do both in one script)Then create a batch file to run the member load and data loads. In DTS, use an execute process task to run the batch file

  • EIS Member and Data Load-Getting OS Error-Please help!

    Please help! I have created a OLAP model then created a Metaoutline.
    Then I went ahead to do the Member and Data load. I logged into my server and started the member and data load.
    Then it gives me the following error:

    The load terminated with errors.
    Thanks in advance for any replies.

    thanks all! the error has been resolved.

  • Incremental Data loading in ASO 7.1

    HI,
    As per the 7.1 essbase dbag
    "Data values are cleared each time the outline is changed structurally. Therefore, incremental data loads are supported
    only for outlines that do not change (for example, logistics analysis applications)."
    That means we can have the incremental loading for ASO in 7.1 for the outline which doesn't change structurally. Now what does it mean by the outline which changes structurally? If we add a level 0 member in any dimension, does it mean structrual change to that outline?
    It also syas that adding Accounts/Time member doesn't clear out the data. Only adding/deleting/moving standard dimension member will clear out the data. I'm totally confused here. Can anyone pls explain me?
    The following actions cause Analytic Services to restructure the outline and clear all data:
    ● Add, delete, or move a standard dimension member
    ● Add, delete, or move a standard dimension
    ● Add, delete, or move an attribute dimension
    ● Add a formula to a level 0 member
    ● Delete a formula from a level 0 member
    Edited by: user3934567 on Jan 14, 2009 10:47 PM

    Adding a Level 0 member is generally, if not always, considered to be a structural change to the outline. I'm not sure if I've tried to add a member to Accounts and see if the data is retained. This may be true because by definition, the Accounts dimension in an ASO cube is a dynamic (versus Stored) hierarchy. And perhaps since the Time dimension in ASO databases in 7.x is the "compression" dimension, there is some sort of special rule about being able to add to it -- although I can't say that I ever need to edit the Time dimension (I have a separate Years dimension). I have been able to modify formulas on ASO outlines without losing the data -- which seems consistent with your bullet points below. I have also been able to move around and change Attribute dimension members (which I would guess is generally considered a non-structural change), and change aliases without losing all my data.
    In general I just assume that I'm going to lose my ASO data. However, all of my ASO outlines are generated through EIS and I load to a test server first. If you're in doubt about losing the data -- try it in test/dev. And if you don't have test/dev, maybe that should be a priority. :) Hope this helps -- Jason.

  • Choosing Dimension Members / Creating Data Load Rule Files

    Hi
    Let me explain this problem using an example. Let's say I have a dimension table called "Product" and its has ProductId, ProductCode & ProductName fields, and a Fact table with ProductId and Value columns. As you can see ProductId has beed used to link to Fact table. I want to display ProductCode as dimension members (ProductName as Alias). I have no problem creating this scenario using EIS. But when I am not sure whether I could do this with EAS. I tried but I cannot get it working. Does anybody know to do this in EAS please? Also, how to create the data load rule for this problem using ProductId?
    Regards
    Chandra

    You can do this using a SQL load rule.
    One rule to build your dimension, simply select statement on the one Dimension table.
    Second rule to load data is going to require a Select statement with a join to pull the product name from the dimension table and the data from the fact table linked on the Product id.
