EPMA Batch Client Error (Version 11.1.1.3)

Issue: I receive the following error message when I execute my batch command: “The application "CompSls" has been redeployed with message "UNKNOWN" and job id "-1"”.
Does anyone know what is causing this error. I have outlined the steps I followed to replicate the error:
Step 1: Created a text file named “EPMA_METADATA_DEPLOY_BATCH.txt”in the following directory:
a. C:\Hyperion\products\Foundation\BPMA\EPMABatchClient\
b. The syntax within the text file is a follows:
//LOGIN
set BPMAServerURL='http://hyperion/hyperion-bpma-server';
set WorkspaceURL='http://hyperion:19000/workspace';
login fakeuser, fakepassword;
//EXECUTE REDEPLOY
Execute Redeploy
Parameters(ApplicationName, InstanceName, ApplicationServer, HubProject,
waitforcompletion, purgeTransactions,deployOption, datasourcename, createoutline, refreshoutline,CreateSecurityFilters, SharedMembersSecurityFilters, ValidateSecurityFilterLimit)
Values('CompSls','Default','Default','Planning Applications','true','true','AppView','HYPPLAN1PROD','false','true','false','false','false');
QUIT;
Step 2: Syntax to call EPMABatchClient from command line:
call epma-batch-client -C"C:\Hyperion\products\Foundation\BPMA\EPMABatchClient\EPMA_METADATA_DEPLOY_BATCH.txt" -T"C:\Hyperion\products\Foundation\BPMA\EPMABatchClient\EPMA_METADATA_DEPLOY_BATCH_TraceFile.log" -R"C:\Hyperion\products\Foundation\BPMA\EPMABatchClient\ EPMA_METADATA_DEPLOY_BATCH_ResultFile.txt" -LOn -SFalse
– fakeuser -fakepassword

EPMA batch client with Essbase application - does not update aliases

Hello,
We are using EPMA 11.1.2.1 for managing outlines for Essbase applications.
Changing aliases in EPMA and launching manually redeploy from Workspace, with flag "Full Deploy" change correctly the aliases in Essbase..
Using the EPMA batch client to redeploy the Essbase application deletes all aliases in Essbase outline.
Someone knows how to solve this problem or what am I doing wrong in the EPMA script?
thanks...
this is the EPMA script:
SET bpmaserverurl=http://epma_server/hyperion-bpma-server;
SET workspaceurl=http://work_space_server/workspace;
login admin,password;
Execute reDeploy
Parameters(ApplicationName, InstanceName, waitforcompletion, deployOption)
Values('PNL', 'ESSBASE_STUDIO_SERVER:essbase_server_name', 'True', 'AppView');
Quit;

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
From your description it seems that you are facing issue only with windows 8\8.1. So firstly suggest you to check with application support team, whether they have whole support for application with newer version. Also check once with application support team
regarding this issue.
This issue occurs because the local taskbar does not receive the EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE event from the system due to a timing issue. The EVENT_OBJECT_NAMECHANGE is needed to update the taskbar title information.
More information (For reference).
The taskbar may not show the application name correctly when using a Terminal Server RemoteApp
Hope it helps!
Thanks.

EPMA Batch Client - Can I launch business rules created in Calc Manager?

I'm currently on a project where we have implemented an EPMA Planning app (v 11.1.1.2), and we need to schedule business rules to run in batch. In the past, I used the command line launcher to perform this task. Unfortunately, the command line launcher is really a part of EAS, so it would appear that I cannot use this method to launch a rule created in Calc Manager. Is this correct?
It looks like my other option is to use the EPMA Batch Client. In looking at the "Execute" command in the documentation, it doesn't reference the ability to run a business rule. The docs are fairly limited, so I'm wondering if I really CAN launch a business rule from here.
Has anyone scheduled a business rule (created in Calc Manager) to run in batch? If so, what method did you use? If all else fails, I can create a calc script and run it from MaxL, but I'd rather not have multiple versions of the code floating around.
Thanks!
- Jake

Hi Jake,
One of the known issues in 11.1.1.3 is :-
You cannot launch a business ruleset with runtime prompts from the Planning command line launch (7205464).
Whether this means you can't run calc manager BR's from command line I am not sure.
There is no documentation in this area so I assume it can't be done yet.
Cheers

Export Dimensions using EPMA Batch Client

HI,
Does anyone know if there is a way to export the dimensions from EPMA using a command line tool like the EPMA Batch Client. I have gone through the guide and there are commands to import the dimensions but none to export them from EPMA. We are on EPM 11.1.2.1 version and all our apps are using EPMA with planning so unfortunately i cannot use the planning outline extractor tool either. Thanks

You can use LCM to export a hierarchy, and that can be scripted LCM batch utility. Create a migration to the file system with LCM. Select the hierarchies you want to export. When you get to the point where it asks you to execute the migration, there is also an option to save an XML file with the options you selected. You can use that xml file with the utility. Details are found at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/epm_lifecycle_management/frameset.htm?launch.htm.
The exports are in the import/export folder under the ID of the person executing the migration. The folder/files can be copies anywhere.

Check the URL being used:
SET BPMAServerURL=http://webservername:port/hyperion-bpma-server;
webservername - Server in which IIS is installed and you can see the hyperion-bpma-server virtual directory
SET WorkspaceURL=http://workspaceservername:port/workspace;
workspaceservername - Server in which WebServer is installed and re-directed to the workspace webapp server (May be IIS or Apache)

ODI OS command call epma batch client failed to run

hi expert,
I have a question to ask for solution.
My problem is that ODI OS Command failed to run epma batch client to import dimension members and deploy to application .
I am using ODI 11g and EPM 11.1.2.1. I added the ODI_Agent to opmn as service. tested agent ok.
I installed ODI as client can run ODI packages to update dimension members choosing ODI agent to run. The package shows run successfully in ODI operator. But when I check the EPMA job console. no dimension update job ran.
my ODI OS command as below:
cmd /cE:/Oracle/Middleware/EPMSystem11R1/products/Foundation/BPMA/EPMABatchClient/epma-batch-client.bat -CE:/Scripts/Import_FIN_DIM.txt -RE:/Oracle_data/Finance/IMPORT_FINANCE.log -LOn -SFalse
any ideas ?
regards,
Chris

Check the script. Your command does not return any specific code. Even if the EPMA batch client returns an error code, DOS does a poor job of communicating it back to java programs which is what ODI agents are. Now, since the code failed, you have to investigate the reason in your script.
My suggestion is to wrap your command in a script, check for the returned error code in that script and then write a error file or update a table or point to a specific line in log file so that ODI can find if the process was successful or not. Then call the wrapper script from ODI.

Log files in EPMA batch client

Hi All,
I want to make log files while using EPMA Batch client.
I am using -T and -R option to make the log files. But its not working correctly. Can anyone tell whats wrong with this?
I used belong command.
epma-batch-client.bat -C"D:\Ads File\DimAddDeploy.txt" -T"D:\Ads File\Trace.log" -R"D:\Ads File\ResultFile.txt"
Also when we run ImportParameters to add the dimensions , I need to make a log file. Instead of going to the URL for checking logs, can we import the URL contenst in a seperate log file?
Thanks in advance.

DRM Batch Client Error - ORA03135 connection lost contact

Hi All,
We have the DRM 11g installed on Windows machine and migrated this server recently to a new datacenter(DC1) however the database connected to this DRM server is still on the original datacenter(DC2).
DRM works fine after the migration except for few issues in the nightly jobs scheduled on DRM server for doing exports. The scheduled job is invoking DRM batch client and failing with the following error.
Unexpected error in drm-batch-client: Error received from DRM Process Manager service using address: net.tcp://localhost:5210/Oracle/Drm/ProcessManager/: ORA-03135: connection lost contact
However this error does not occur if we restart the DRM services(thru config console) and rerrun the batch client automatically. Looks like DRM is loosing connectivity to the application server process , is it anything do with the timeouts between IIS and Weblogic server ?
Any insights on this problem would be really helpful.
Thanks,
RB

Hi RB,
This isn't going to be connection between IIS and Weblogic as DRM does not use Weblogic (aside from the manual configuration for the DRM web service). The error that you're getting is being returned from your database server and seems to indicate that the connection to the Oracle database server has been dropped for some reason. There are some suggestions on what to do to try and resolve the ORA-03135 error here ORA-03135 Connection Lost Contact Tips

Properties that are updateable and which ones not using epma batch client

Can anyone provide list of properties (HFM/Essbase etc.) that are updateable and which ones not using epma batch client?

This will be documented in the batch client and related documentation on the EPM documentation portal

EPMA Batch client command Equivalent to Select Top Member

Hi
I am looking for EPMA batch client command equivalent to performing "Select Top Members" in web against a shared dimension in Application library.
I can find commands for exclude members in the document but could not find any Dimension Property or Command which will help me to automate this.
Thanks in Advance.

I don't believe there is a command that will do that yet.

DRM Batch Client error during export

Hello,
I am experiencing an error when using the DRM Batch Client to execute export books. The same export process fails sometimes and runs to completion successfully at other times. When it fails, it does not always fail in the same place within the export process, and the error is as follows:
2/2/2011 8:31:40 PM - ERemotableException with message: "Server was unable to process request. ---> Error during Export. Export was unable to run. Error: Timeout expired" while running Export Book
2/2/2011 8:31:40 PM - => ERROR: Data Relationship Management Server returned error: "Server was unable to process request. ---> Error during Export. Export was unable to run. Error: Timeout expired."
2/2/2011 8:31:40 PM - *** MDMConnect stopping ***
Because this issue is sporadic, it seems like there could be a few possible causes:
1. Network issues
2. SQL connection/time-out issues -- These particular exports are writing to SQL tables versus flat files
3. Am wondering if there are any known issues with the MDMConnect? Or are there time-out settings we can adjust?
We currently have our in-house IT chasing down any possible network or SQL issues. Does anyone know of any issues with the batch client, or have ideas on any other possible causes? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
EJ

There is a timeout setting in DRM system preferences and there are mulitlple session timeout settings in IIS that you may need to configure. Try the system preference first. For very large jobs, ie. hundreds of thousands of nodes with hundreds of properties per node, you'll need to update settings in IIS as well.

EPMA - Batch Client

Hi,
Can you batch up the tasks of creating ADS files etc? Thinking a great way to backup Planning EPMA apps would be the ability to batch up some functionality of creating ADS files, calc mgr rules, webforms etc... Is there a way to batch that stuff up?

Thats really what I want to do. I want to batch the LCM. Was thinking it might be in the EPMA batch guide as when you goto LCM via Shared Services the navigation is to Foundation->EPM Architect.
So LCM batch info would be found in the Foundation documentation then?

Error while running EPMA Batch client in 11.1.1.3

I am using the following syntax to refresh a plannin app
Execute Deploy Parameters(ApplicationName,InstanceName,ApplicationServer,HubProject,waitforcompletion,purgeTransactions,deployOption,datasourceName,RefreshOutline) Values ('Appname','PLANNING','PLANNING','PLANNING','true','true',‘AppView’,DSNname','true');
but I am getting the following error message
Missing single quotes on the value " 'AppView','DSNname','true' "
I have checked the DSN name and I'm passing the correct parameter.
Would appreciate any help on this.
Thanks

There is a single quote missing on in your example in front of DSNName, here is a working example from 11.1.2.1 though it should be similar for your version.
Execute Deploy Parameters(ApplicationName, InstanceName, ApplicationServer, HubProject, ClearAll, CheckIntegrity, waitforcompletion, purgeTransactions, deployOption, datasourceName,CreateOutline,RefreshOutline,CreateSecurityFilters,SharedMembersSecurityFilters,ValidateSecurityFilterLimit) Values ('EPMASAMP', 'Default', 'Default', 'Planning', 'false', 'false', 'true', 'true', 'AppView', 'EPMASAMP','false','true','false','false','false');

Batch client in EPMA

Hi,
i just want to use batch client to update member property in EPMA. But the batch client is not installed in windows server, it is in UNIX.
Can I still do that in UNIX according to the Batch Client Guide? If so, how can i log in to the path?
Thank you.

Hi,
Thank you.
I have tried to launch the epma-batch-client in Unix as below, but it shows some error. You can see the below.
I just use PuTTY to log into the BatchClient directory in Unix and launch the epma-batch-client.bat like below,
<server>:../oracle/epm/EPMSystem11R1/products/Foundation/BPMA/EPMABatchClient>epma-batch-client.sh
it show error: ..<server> does not exist or is not readble.
I also tried that:
<server>:../oracle/epm/EPMSystem11R1/products/Foundation/BPMA/EPMABatchClient>./epma-batch-client.sh
it shows the same error.
I wonder if it is the user has no access to execute the epma-batch-client.bat?
Thank you.
