Financial Reporting services distributed.

Hello All,
I see that the five services of Financial Reporting is distributed on different servers.I mean three of the services on one server and rest two services are replicated on 2 different servers.
I want to know what is the need of keeping services on different servers...
Thanks in advance.
Pam

Hi Pam,
There are 5 services for Financial Reporting as shown below and I hope you may see the following three Financial Reporting Services out of 5 on one Server:
If the version is 11.1.1.3 or lower, you would be the services as follows:
1. Hyperion Financial Reporting - Java RMI Registry
2. Hyperion Financial Reporting - Report Server
3. Hyperion Financial Reporting - Scheduler Server
The rest two would be as follows:
4. Hyperion Financial Reporting - Print Server
5. Hyperion Financial Reporting - Web Application.
Please correct me, if I'm wrong. I suggest you to update the Services info that you see on your two server, based on which I can clarify you and describe you the reason behind.
Regards,
Aejaz Shaikh.

Issue on Hyperion Financial Reporting Services -URGENT

Hi Gurus,
I would like to know the steps to be performed to take the back up of the Financial reports when all the Financial Services are stopped running.
Production server is down and noticed that all the services are running fine except the Financial Reporting services.
I need your advice on how to bring back the Financial reports server to work.
1) Do I need to take back up of all the Reports before going for server reboot? If yes, can you give me the detailed steps on how to take the back of these reports.
2) If I go and raised the request to restart the server, is there any effect to the Reports?
Can you please tell me the procedure/process on how to deal with this kind of issues?
Awaiting for your help..
Regards,
Upendra.

Hi,
What happens when you try and start it? Is there anything in the logs or the event viewer ?
Financial report information is stored in the database repository, so restarting the server is not a problem.
Reports are usually backed up by exporting them or backing up the database (though you have to back up all hyperion databases at the same time so they can be put back into sync)
Cheers

Financial Reports WIndows Service(s) missing?

I'm trying to install Oracle EPM version 11.1.2.1, and I'm pretty far along, but this seems weird. Everything is installed and configured, but I have no Windows service(s) for FR on the services tier server.
Looking at the startup order in the Installation and Configuration Guide, I see Financial Reporting Services listed just before Financial Reporting application server. I assume this is what used to be the 4 services on the services tier server that have been consolidated to 2, but I don't see any.
I double-checked the installer, and I have no check box under the 'Services' tier heading for FR, and no "Financial Reporting Services" item listed when I go into "choose individually." This seems wrong, but I'm not sure. I re-downloaded all 13 files from e-delivery that are flagged as necessary in the Readme. Still, nothing.
Print server is installed with the FR client, evidently? Is it not a server-side service anymore? Or is it now OK to install the FR client on the same machine that the server is on, which used to cause problems?
Thanks for your consideration,
-- Joe

Hi Joe,
Can you provide a link to the documentation you are reviewing and make sure it is for 11.1.2.1 version?
There are two services for FR - the Financial Reporting Web Service and the Financial Reporting Print Service. That is all that you should need.
For information on how to configure the print service check here,
http://epm-errors.blogspot.com/2012/01/configuring-financial-reporting-print.html
It is a server side component that they decided to bundle with the client installer... It's a bit strange to me.
Thanks

Financial Reporting Web service Out of Memory (11.1.2.2.300)

Financial Reporting web services runs out of memory. The JVM settings are currently set to 2048. The OS is windows 2008 64 bit.
We have made the the following settings but it still does not help. The service would stay up for about 5 to 6 hours and then would go out of memory. We also see that there is a continuous activity in Financial reporting logs even when there are no users using the system.
- Navigate to the following Windows Registry key on the server hosting the Financial Reporting web application component:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Hyperion Solutions\FinancialReporting0\HyS9FRReports
- Export the above mentioned Windows Registry key for backup purposes,
- Create a new "String Value" entry with following name and value:
Name:JVMOptionY
Value:-XXtlasize:min=4k,preferred=64k
With Y being equal to (current value of JVMOptionCount) + 1
- Create a new "String Value" entry with following name and value:
Name:JVMOptionZ
Value:-XXlargeObjectLimit:4k
With Z being equal to (current value of JVMOptionCount) + 2
- Increase the value of the JVMOptionCount parameter by 2
- Restart the Financial Reporting web application component for the changes to be taken into account.

Shared Services Security Issue with Financial Reporting - 11.1.1.3

Hi,
So we have some users that are provisioned in some groups. Those groups have Essbase Server Access and Planner access to an application. That access is working great. They have access to the app and they have access via Smartview to the cube.
Now we need them to be able to see all the Financial Reports (FR) created for that application. There are so many provisioning choices under 'Reporting and Analysis', that I'm not sure how to get this done correctly. Right now we have to assign 'Viewer' access and 'Explorer' access under 'Content Manager' tree in order for this to happen. I just think this seems wrong. We just need the user to be able to run and view a report from Workspace.
Any help is appreciated as this is a very green area for me.

Hi,
You will need both Viewer and Explorer access for users to run reports.
the reason is that without the Explorer, users will not be able to see any reports or the explorer in Workspace.
Without Viewer, users will not be able to view/open any of the reports. You also have to give report access to users anyway related to the groups.
You can see anll information about different security roles for Reporting and Analysis in the shared Services admin guide.
The documentation is the best place to start for any information needed and confirming what fulfills your needs.

Issues in Shared Services, Workspace & Financial Reporting

Hi All,
I am working on hyperion 9.3.1.
I have two issues. Someone help me in this sistuation
1) In shared servcies, I cant able to access my planning application. If i click the planning application its *"Loading for a long time"*
Note : I updated the Patches *8527948* for 9.3.1. Still i am facing the error.
2) I created two classic applications in planning and registered with shared services. I cant see the planning application in workspace.
3) I can't access Financial Reporting through workspace. Please let me know the url for FR.(http://localhost:8200/hr/index.jsp - If i give this url its redirect to workspace)
My Installation Order:
1) Shared Services
2) Essbase
3) EAS
4) Report and Analysis UI Services
5) Report and Analysis
6) Planning
Please guide me in this situtation.
Thanks,
PC

Hi,
On the issue of not seeing the planning applications, have you tried reconfiguring the web server part for Reporting & Analysis in the config utility, you probably have to do this if you configured planning after reporting & analysis
What do you mean you can't access Financial Reporting ? You need to create a report using the Financial Reporting Studio client then save the report to workspace.
The report is then accessed through explore in workspace.
Cheers

Migrate Financial Reporting reports from version 11.1.1.2 to 11.1.2.1?

I have recently built a brand new 11.1.2.1 environment. Our current environment is running 11.1.1.2. I have successfully migrated shared services data, and hfm data across to the new environment. I am now trying to move the financial reporting reports. Anybody know the best way to do this? Thanks.

I did do something wrong : )
I selected import file instead of import financial reporting documents!
Now when I import it asks me to create a datasource which I did. It then gives me the following error:
"Server/Cluster is incorrectly configured. Please reconfigure your Cluster or Server connection. Server/Cluster is incorrectly configured. Please reconfigure your Cluster or Server connection."
Now I know the server/cluster is configured properly for I can open the Financial Management application through workspace and through the Financial Management client with no issues whatsoever. So they are registered properly.
I'll continue to work at it and see if I can figure it out. In the meantime if you have a simple solution, please let me know.
Additional info:
I have a distributed environment. Foundation web server is where I run all the web components including Reporting & Analysis web, Financial Rptg web, shared services etc. I have a BIplus services server that is running RA Famework Server, FR Print server and HFM web server etc. I then have 3 essbase servers and one HFM server.
Thanks,
Mike

Error while running the financial report in the workspace.

Hi,
Im getting the below error while running the financial report in the workspace in HTML mode.
*"Required application module reporting.HRRunDlg is not configured. Please contact your administrator".*
And im not able to login to the Hyperion Financial Reporting as well.. i get the below error
*"You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator"*
Can someone let me know how to resolve this error.

You don't mention the version, what app server or web server you are using, etc.. That information might be helpful, but in general, you can try the following:
1. Make sure you have gone through the FR Web App deployment steps and verify the settings entered in the Config Tool.
2. For version 11.1.1.x and 9.3.1.x, try opening the report in FR Studio and running it via the FR Studio Print Preview (*bold*not*bold* Web Preview.) If the report runs/processes, then the back-end FR Services are functioning and the issue is confined to the web interface. Verify the FR Web App is up and listening on the designated port (8200, by default), check the FR Web App logs and the App Server (WebLogic, WebSphere, Tomcat, OAS) logs for errors/issues.
If the report fails to process in FR Studio Print Preview, then there is a problem with the FR Reporting Server Service. Check to make sure the service is up/functioning and check the FR Report Server logs for errors.
3. Test access to other FR functionality in workspace (ex: Files->Preferences->Financial Reporting or Explore->Tools->Database Connection Manager?) If these don't work, then try to connect to the following URLs:
http://workspaceServer:19000/hr/status.jsp
http://frWebAppServer:8200/hr/status.jsp
Note: The URLs above assume standard/default ports. You may need to adjust them for your environment.
If the first URL fails, but the second URL works, there is a problem with the HTTP redirect settings on the Web Server (Apache, IIS, etc.) Run through the Workspace deployment and make sure the Web Server Config settings point to the right ports/servers.

How do you resolve Financial Management service validation error in EPM ?

Does anyone know how to resolve Financial Management service validation error from EPM Diagnostic Report?

5) Installed Weblogic Server 9.2 and configure it using Configuration Wizard – Selected “test environment” and ticked default “listening port” – Shutdown the machine
6) Basic installation of Oracle Database 10gR2 using Step-by-Step guide provided by Oracle and carried out Password Management steps. After installation, I then created a user “oracle” and assigned it to ora_dba User Group with the required Local Security Policies – “log on as a batch job” and “Act as part of operating system”
7) Logged into database and acknowledge the licensing window – Shutdown the machine
8) Restarted the machine and checked all relevant and newly installed Database and WebLogic services are running.
9) Started Installing EPM components by double clicking “InstallTool.cmd” and selected all relevant components at ONCE as per Installation Guide – Result: - All selected EPM components were successfully installed without errors or exceptions
10) At the end of installation window, I carried out the configuration in the following scearios:
Scenario 1: Configuration all at Default settings
Scenario 2: Configuration all, except “Application Server” I selected the WebLogic9.2
Scenario 3: Configuration all, except “Application Server” and “Workspace Web Server” were being Welogic9.2 and IIS HTTP
RESULT: After all numerous installations, all came down to ONE ERROR from “Diagnostic Report” stating the following:
Financial Management:
FAILED SVR: HFM Service Validation Check if HFM service in working state.
Error: Error message: <03/11/2010 05:32:26 PM> CreateApplicationCAS... Failed at line: 2
Recommended Action: Make sure HAT utility is working. 1 s
I then simply ignored this error and tried to deploy an Application, all worked fine until you get to the point at “Job Console” where you need to press “Refresh” button. Progress remained at 12% until it got timedout after 300 seconds and force attempt of refreshing resulting in “aborted” job with the following error:

This is, I believe preventing me from deploying Consolidation Apps, including Sample Application provided with EPM Downloads. I have tried installing and configuring by components. All failed with the same outcome.
I have been working on this effortlessly in different combinations to get at least one Financial Management Application get deployed so I could enhance my learning adventure. As it stands, I am not sure where to get help and completely lost in the World of Oracle. I am also come to wonder whether “Free Downloads of EPM” are indeed, is “complete and is in working-state” or do I need a licence to use for personal learning experience? Are there different downloads for different needs or/users For example, eDelivery downloads are different from OTN Agreement downloads?
I have downloaded the files from following URL:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/bi/performance-management/index.html
I am completely lost and all services are up and running and not sure what I am missing!! Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
Many Thanks
BT

I am having exactly the same problem using Windows 2003 Standard editions SP2. Is there anyone who knows a possible solution for this? The effect on HFM is that is not possible to create an application, since I always get an error that says "Server execution failed"

Hi,
I have similar issue and cannot find an answer.
My environment is 11.1.2.1 (upgrade from 11.1.1.3)
All applications working fine (planning, essbase, hfm).
I'm unable to change database connection to hfm (db change to essbase and Plannng works). Error says that I have wrong cluster/server configuration.
Question is how this configuration should lokks like. I already tested:
1. HFMProd - this is cluster name and Server1 as a server in HFMProd cluster
2. No cluster, just Server1
3. HFMProd and Server1 in plus Server1 separately
In all cases the same message.
When I open FR studio I'm able to see reports (from workspace also).
When I try to open report I have an error due to some links to the old server ip (I guess this is taken from connection info that I can not change)
What is more I can create new Planning report in studio, but can not open through workspace.
From Workspace I can manage reporting services so everything is visible correctly (or should be :) ).
Any idea?
regards
Karol

Financial Reporting 11.1.1.3 Client "Access Denied" connecting to HFM

Hi,
I have installed Financial Reporting 11.1.1.3 Client on a PC running Windows Vista 32 bit SP1. When I try to access to a report created form another PC that connects to HFM, it says "Error connectiong to server" and "Cannot connect to database "X": Access Denied". The native user is the same that created the report; on the same machine, I can succesfully access HFM applications from HFM client and Rule editor.
Any idea?
Thanks

HTTP Status 500 message when attempting to open Financial Report.

In a new 9.3.1 installation (BI, Essbase, HFM, Planning) I am unable to run Financial Reports in Workspace. As a test, I have created a simple report, using Studio, which has only boilerplate text - no grids or anything else that requires a DB connection. The report previews fine from the Studio client but when I attempt an HTML preview or when I attempt to run the report from within Workspace, I receive an HTTP Status 500 error in the right panel in Workspace. Below is the text of the error. I am using IIS 6 with Tomcat. My troubleshooting effort have been around IIS and BI configuration. I am able to open Web Analysis documents without any trouble. Any suggestions you may have would be appreciated.

Hi again Ramana,
Did you try any of the following:
1.) Delete Tomcat cache with the following steps
Stop Tomcat.
Remove the folders from <Tomcat\work\Catalina\localhost> directory.
Start Tomcat. (it will delay a few minutes)
The cache will be recreated automatically.
2.) Redeploy Explorer application with wdeploy tool (Location: <install_dir>\SAP BusinessObjects\SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0\wdeploy)
Syntax
wdeploy <WEB_APP_SERVER> [-D<PROPERTY>=<value>] <ACTION>
Example
-- Undeploy
wdeploy tomcat7 -DAPP=explorer undeploy
-- Deploy
wdeploy tomcat7 -DAPP=explorer deploy

Ilias
