Essbase Applications to EPMA

does anyone have an idea on how can i load essbase applications to EPMA?
Thanks,
Hanson

In this case you would have to first load the entire outline of the ESSBASE application in EPMA and then modify the properties accordingly (if reqd).
The entire outline can be loaded to EPMA through a textfile , by going into the dimension library and selecting: file - import profile

  • Re-deploying Essbase application with EPMA version 11.1.2.

    Hi everyone.
    We recently upgraded to Hyperion Planning 11.1.2 and we are also using EPMA 11.1.2.
    EPMA 11.1.2 is significantly different from 11.1.1.3 in several key respects, including the new synchronization functionality. What we're struggling with is figuring out how to re-deploy Essbase and Planning applications from EPMA. We've been able to deploy them the first time, since then we've made changes in the dimension library and we want to now re-deploy these modified Essbase cubes out to the Essbase server. In the old version of EPMA 11.1.1.3 I would just right click on the application in the App Library and select "Deploy | Refresh" and it would go do it's thing. Now in 11.1.2 EPMA, when I right click nothing happens. HELP!
    Tom

    Hi Tom,
    Frankly speaking, I did not get when you said that nothing happens when you Right click the application in the App library.
    Ideally, you would see the options as is, with certain options like " Validate, Deploy, Open" etc to be disabled.
    You might need to provide the Application Manager role for the user for that particular application and then re-launch EPMA to view the enabled options.
    Then, on right clicking the application and select Deploy option, you would view the options so as to perform a Re-deployment.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Vipin.

  • Essbase Applications through EPMA - Advantages and Disadvantages over EAS

    Hi,
    Does anybody has any documentation highlighting the Advantages/Disadvantages of EPMA over EAS Console for Essbase Applications.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    my advice is to go for CSV anytime compared to XML.
    XML is first made available to the BW system via  SOAP ( Simple Object Acess protocol) interface. Next it is updated into the required data targets as before , Via a data source for the myself source system.
    SOAP = XML+HTTP.
    XML cannot be used for mass data. It is only to load small data into SAP BW on a single document level.
    BW provides flat file interface so, there is no all these hassles in case of CSV. go for CSV

  • 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!

  • Time Balance is set to Last for EPMA Essbase application in Essbase Outline

    Hello Gurus,
    Following is my scenario -
    I have an EPMA Essbase applications that I have deployed from Workspace.
    I have observed that even though the Time Balance property for members for the accounts dimension are set to Balance (as seen in Dimension Library) in EPMA, after I deploy the application the dimensions are tagged as TB Last in Essbase outline (as seen in EAS).
    I am not aware of the functional part much, would really appreciate someone's help on this issue.
    Thanks.
    hyperionEPM

    Here is the doc that explains time balance settings in Essbase:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_dbag/dcatimse.html
    Here is the doc that explains time balance settings in Planning:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/hp_admin_11122/ch12s04s08s01.html
    And here's a quick cross reference between Essbase and Planning:
    ESSBASE / PLANNING
    TB Last = Balance
    TB None = Flow
    TB First = First
    TB Avg = Average
    In general, Income Statement accounts are "Flow", and Balance Sheet accounts are "Balance" (unless you're storing activity, and not balances). Statistical accounts are a mixed bag.
    Hope this helps,

  • EPMA Essbase Application Validation - A internal server error

    I have created an essbase application "TEST". In Epma i have uploaded the dimensions for the application and tried to Validate the application. But during validation I am getting the following error
    "A internal server error occured communicating with the server - URI: http://server.com:19000/awb/integration.verifyApplication.do

  • Unable to Deploy an ASO Essbase cube in EPMA

    Hi All,
    I am having issues while deploying an ASO essbase cube application in EPMA.
    1.Have created a new Essbase ASO cube application
    2.Created an basic outline about 10 dimensions
    3.Validated it successfully
    4.When i deploy it starts the initiation and after sometime it comes up with Below Error message
    Detail: Initiating product Action
    Generating Headers and callback information
    Posting Product request
    Connection timed out: Connect
    I have created an Empty ASO application and selected the sot order..It validates fine, But unable to Deploy..same error message

    This issue is seen only with IBM JDK 1.6 (any SR) because, IBM packages the xerces version 2.9 as a part of $IBM_JDK_HOME/jre/lib/xml.jar.
    I think/understand that, your application is also packaging a xerces impl jar(different version otherthan xerces version 2.9) in WEB-INF/lib of you application.
    So, to make sure that the WebLogic Server uses the xerces impl jar that has been packaged, you are trying to use the filtered classloader in weblogic-application.xml
    But the filtered classloader would not have any effect, since, the IBM JDK packaged xerces parsers would also be with the same package structure. So, I think you should try with setting the following in WEB-INF/weblogic.xml inside the <weblogic-web-app> tag.
    <container-descriptor>
    <prefer-web-inf-classes>true</prefer-web-inf-classes>
    </container-descriptor>
    I think this should work with WLS 11gR1PS2 (WLS 10.3.3).

  • After Upgrade from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2 Essbase Application Not Shown in Calculation Manager

    I have upgraded from EPM 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2 and now want to import Business Rules to Calculation Manager for use with Essbase.
    However I cannot see my Essbase Application in Calculation Manager; (only the provided sample applications are shown in the hierarchy)
    How do I check my configuration? How does Calculation Manager connect to Essbase and find my app?
    I haven't knowingly altered Essbase server/port details during the upgrade as I opted not to re-host.

    Yes the EAS schema was upgraded by the configurator.
    I ran upgrade_ps2.sh (unix) without changing any configuration just to see what it does and (after I had to manually create the directory structure for the log file) it created an HBRrules.xml file successfully fo the first time under EPMData/planning (The missing log file directory structure may have been why the configurator didn't create the HBrrules.xml file at the first attempt during the Planning upgrade)
    Anyway not entirely sure where upgrade_ps2.sh got its rules information but the file it created was very similar to the HBR file exported from EAS prior to starting the upgrade.
    I attempted a 'migrate' again with Calculation Manager but still get the "No objects were found in the document for importing", i.e. kind of back to square one.
    I really need to understand what is Calc Managers problem?
    Q .What server should the upgrade_ps2.sh be run on? Planning or Shared Services? (I did it in on both)
    Q. How can I get Calc Manager to tell me more with logging or tracing somehow?
    Any other suggestions gratefully received
    Many Thanks

  • Essbase Application Corrupted

    When i am Refreshing the Applicaiton to Essbase i got an error
    " *com.hyperion.planning.olap.EssbaseException: Unable to load database [%s] (1002097)* "
    .... my essbase is corrupt.... I guess...
    I could not able to log into the EAS"Essbase application"
    but I can still log into the Planning Application....
    Can any one tell me how to restore the database in essbase... which is corrupted i guess...

    Hi,
    the Application"ABC" consists of two databases
    DB1 and DB2
    so you want me to go to
    Z:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\app\ABC\DB1
    Z:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\app\ABC\DB2
    and rename the DB1.dbb and DB2.dbb in resp databases to .db?
    One more thing i can see the DB1.db already exist in the Database folder :(
    Can you tell me what do i need to do?
    Is there anything releated to delete .esm file and restart database for the recovery? does this help???

  • Error upon starting an Essbase Application

    Good day Guys,
    I'm having problems on starting an Essbase application. When I try to start the application, I get this error message:
    *Cannot load application [App Name] with error number [1052003] - see server log file.*+
    I tried the solutions in the Error Message Reference but to no avail. I increased the NETDELAY and NETRETRYCOUNT, I restarted Essbase server.
    Anyone please help.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    I have one reverse approach for your problem, open EAS console copy the application databases to some other application folder in EAS. Once you are done with this delete the database of the application, please be sure you are deleting the database which is having the issue now start the application. Now log on to he Planning and deploy the application from Planning to Essbase by manage database in Administration module.
    Once this is done come back to the EAS console here you will see a new database is created in the application folder, now you can compare the older database with the new database which is newly created. This will help you in determining what may be the issue.

  • Cannot start Essbase application

    Hi-
    We could not start our Essbase application after stopping and starting Essbase services. This issue happens randomly, usually when big calcs are running and getting interrupted by the nightly backup process.

Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Is there any better way to get rid of any hung processes besides "alter system kill request all;" command? Thank you in advance..

    Please be careful.
    When you kill a calc script, it can damage your app/db.
    I would suggest to make sure that your calc script finish before your backup run, or run after the backup finish.

  • Essbase Application Restore Issue.

    Hi All,
    I am trying to copy an Essbase Application from a distant install. I have been provided the contents of the 'app' directory of the remote server. After copying to my Essbase server instance 'app' directory, I am trying to restore by creating a new application in EAS with the same name. But I get the below error:
    *Error: 1002097 Unable to load database [PFTAPRFT].*
    This application has 20 DBs. If I remove the PFTAPRFT folder from the app directory, it gives the same error on another database. All this while I try to create the application as BSO. But when I try to create the same using ASO option, I get a different error as below:
    *Error: 1002112 Unable to convert outline [D:\EPMhome11G\user_projects\epmsystem1\EssbaseServer\essbaseserver1\APP\ACCPROFT\PFTAPRFT\PFTAPRFT.otl], verification failed*
    I also tried not to place these applications in the 'app' directory and manually create the application, outline and load data using files, but that cube did not show any measures and was showing all values as '#MISSING'.
    Can some one please point me on what I am missing here to able to move the application successfully from one Env to another ?
    -Sandeep.

    why dont you check with your server team(windows/unix) to revert it back as your applications are getting effected & ask them to first apply on Dev/QA servers and then test, if everything is ok, then move it to Prod.
    Are you sure that before restore you always change the app/db settings(uncheck allow users to start,etc) and stop the application, then try to restore full application or only DB also fine as you are not going to change anything on app files.....

  • How to know the number of Active users logged in to a Essbase  Application?

    Hi,
    Is there way to capture/log the number of active users who have logged into a particular Essbase application at a given time.
    In Essbase or in Shared services?
    I know we can see the EAS-Edit Sessions shows the actively logged-in users, then we can sort on the application/database & manually count the number.
    Is there a way to capture it in a log at a given time on a regular basis. Any MAXL or Shared services feature?
    Appreciate your thoughts.
    Thanks,
    Ethan.

    You could use maxl .
    display user all;
    there will be a column called "logged in" which will display true/false for the users
    but that will just show if they are logged into the server and not the application
    You can also use use display session
    display session all;
    or
    display session on application sample;
    which should show what you are after.
    Cheers

  • Error while migrating Essbase application

    HI i am on 9.3 trying to migrate an Essbase application from one server to another.
    But in selection page I could find only one server name in both source and target?
    Thanks

    Hi John,
    I am using the migration wizard, but its showing the same server name in both source and target.
    If i am migrating the app from Development to UAT its showing only Development server in both source and target. i did tried it in reverse from UAT to DEV then i could find only UAT server in both source and target.
