HFM 9.3.1.04 Patch

Where will I get the HFM 9.3.1.04 patch and how will this be updated. What are the steps to update HFM 9.3.1 to 9.3.1.04?
Thank you.

They can all be found here: https://support.oracle.com in the Patches & Updates section. 9.3.1.4.00 is patch #8259783. You will want to then apply all the service fixes, which go up through 22 I think. Check with Oracle support, but I think you are required to install .05, .06, .13, and .22 to be current.

HFM API - OpenApplication

We are trying to leverage HFM API for a custom program (a command line utility) to export data using EA process.
HsxClientlib.dll is referenced from /common directory and using OpenApplication method to connect to the application after login.
I am able to connect individual servers however not able use HFM cluster. Is there a way to connect using HFM Cluster instead of single server.
We are using HFM v11.1.2.2 patch 305.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

Doubts: how to check this patch which were installed in EPM HFM...

Dear Expert
I'm new to Configuration Management Service for EPM HFM.
And my doubt is how to find out which patch is installed on EPM HFM?
How can I find it?
thank you

In EPM System Release 11.x, you can use the lsinventory command to OPatch to find the release and patches that are installed in an Oracle Home. For example, enter the following command on one line:
Windows:
opatch.bat lsinventory -oh <EPM_ORACLE_HOME> -jdk <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>/jdk160_29
You can also check the Patch levels by;

HFM client patch installation

Hi,
We have an HFM - FDM - Riporting system which consits 3 application servers and 1 terminal server.
The HFM application server were updated to the 11.1.2.1.600 version, but the terminal server which only have an HFM client remained on the 11.1.2.1.0 version.
As the .600 patch instruction says, we must stop the HFM processes and the IIS.
If I want to install this patch only to the terminal server, is it a must to stop these services?
I think the answer is not, because only a client will change, but please ensure me, if somebody has experience about a situation like this.
Regards,
Tamas

If there are no HFM related processes running on the machine you are applying the patch then you should be ok.
Cheers

HFM Patch issue

Hi,
We have applied patch 9976978 on the hfm server which is at version 11.1.1.3.0 in order to upgrade it to 11.1.1.3.50.
The patch was succefully applied and the hpatch.bat lsinventory listed the patch after it was applied.
Now we have tried to apply a new patch which fails in the prerequisite steps asking for the patch 9976978.
I run hpatch.bat lsinventory and see no patches listed Strangely the patch which was applied disappeared.
Can someone tell if they have faced the same issue and also how can we make sure that the version is 11.1.1.3.50 even if it is not listed in the inventory.
Thanks.

I've applied patch 50 multiple times and never encountered the behavior you are seeing.
You should be applying patches as the user who installed Hyperion. This should be a generic service user account.
If you are using an account other than the account you patched with this could be the case.

HFM Patch 9976978 (11.1.1.3.50 Service Pack)

Hi All,
Just curious if anyone has installed HFM Patch 9976978 (11.1.1.3.50 Service Pack). On a recent service request, Oracle indicated it was a mandatory patch for us.
Wondering if anyone has applied it yet and if there has been any issues with it?
Much Appreciated,
Mike

We are attempting to install the patch to our development system and have run into an error. The error message "An unexpected database error occured. Check event log for details. Error Code: -2147220900". This same issue had appeared on an earlier patch in 9.3.3. I have opened an SR and have not found a resolution for the problem as yet. The file referenced in the 9.3.3 that caused the issue is "HsvDSICM.dll". This file has been updated in the 11.1.1.3.50 patch and may be the problem. More laterz.

HFM Patch Rollback

Hi,
I am using version 9.3.1 and planning to upgrade to 9.3.3.
I just want to know that After applying patch for 9.3.3 is there a way to rollback to 9.3.1 in case anything goes wrong?
I think this would be a general thing to rollback to the previous state before patching.
Please, tell me how to do that.
Thanks
J

The 9.3.3 patch will potentially modify files in the hyperion home directory , relational database tables, and potentially .dll libraries within C:\windows\system32.
If you have a good backup you would be in good shape for recovering the system. However, I would use that as a last resort - you should probably commit to the upgrade process and try to work out issues as they come up and try it out in a development environment first.

Can no longer connect to HFM Office provider via Smartview

Can connect to Essbase and Reporting and Analysis via Smartview. Just not HFM. This worked for over 1 month and suddenly just stopped! Nothing changed on the servers that we know of. Our TQA environment is still working fine. Just our production environment that broke!!
We are running version 11.1.2.1. Office 2003. XP on the desktops. Windows 2008 R2 64 bit enterprise on the servers. Shared and Private connections do not work.
Here is the link we use within smartview for private connection:
http://<servername>/hfmofficeprovider/hfmofficeprovider.aspx
Event Viewer on HFM web server gives this error each time I try:

When trying to access the HFM application via Workspace, receive a Class not registered warning. HFM application will not open. You are left at Workspace homepage.
I can run Financial Management client and access the HFM application with no issues. I can run Financial Reporting reports against the HFM app. via workspace with no issues.
We really need to get this working. SR is open with Oracle support. They recommended patch 12830755, but it did not help.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi Mike,
What is the user running hfmSmartViewAppPool on your IIS ?
is there a possiblility that its rights has been updated recently ?
you can try to update the user with your DCOM service admin user and restart IIS and HFM services.
Hope it helps,
Ahmet

Error trying to extract data via HFM objects

I've written a program to extract selected data from HFM (version 11.1.1.3.500) using the API objects. The program (shown at the bottom of this post) is failing on the 2nd of the following 2 lines:
oOption = oOptions.Item(HSV_DATAEXTRACT_OPT_SCENARIO_SUBSET)
oOption.CurrentValue = lBudgetScenario
where oOption is a data load/extract object previously initialized and lBudgetScenario is the long internal ID for our budget scenario.
The error is usually "COM Exception was unhandled" with a result code of "0x800456c7", but, mysteriously, even with no code changes, it sometimes throws the error "FileNotFoundException was not handled", where it says that it could not load "interop.HSXServerlib or one of its dependencies". The second error occurs even though HSXServer was previously initialized in the program and used in conjunction with the login.
I've carefully traced through the VB.NET 2010 code and find that all relevant objects are instantiated and variables correctly assigned. It also occurred to me that the data load DLLs might have been updated when the 11.1.1.3.50 and 500 patches were applied. For that reason, I removed the references to those DLLs, deleted the interop files in the debug and release folders and copied the server versions of those DLLs to my PC. I then restored the DLL references in Visual Studio which recreated the interops. However, the error still occurs.
The ID I'm using (changed to generic names in the code below) has appropriate security and, for example, can be used to manually extract data for the same POV via the HFM client.
I've removed irrelevant lines from the code and substituted a phony ID, password, server name and application name. The line with the error is preceded by the comment "THE LINE BELOW IS THE ONE THAT FAILS".

oMetaData = oSession.Metadata

GetMemberID = oEntityTreeInfo.GetItemID(strMemLabel)
End Function
End Module

I stumbled upon the solution to my problem. The documentation for extracting data via objects defines member ID variables as Longs. In fact, I've always defined such variables as longs in previous object programs and had no problems. It appears that the datal load/extract "option" property of "Currentvalue" is defined as integer. When I changed all of my member ID items (such as the "lBudgetScenario" variable that was the right-side of the failing assignment statement) to be integers, the program worked.

Smartview 11.1.2.1.103 problem: Merged cell in HFM workspace is unmerged in smartview

I have an error here in smartview 11.1.2.1.103. In HFM workspace, the form I designed has merged cell in row1. But I open the same form in smartview, row1 is not longer merged. Does anyone have the same problem?
PS: I've already set the option: excel formatting in smartview.

Hi,
thanks for your answers. From all I could find out from Oracle support, I'll have to wait until 11.1.2.1 is GA and then try again :-(
Or will there be a patch for 11.1.2.0 as well?
Best regards,
Markus

Did I do something wrong in the installation?

After upgrading to version 9.3.3, 11.1.1.3.50 or 11.1.2.1 this error could occur with the below scenario...
The cause was due to a program change in these upgrade version, with how logins work when accessing HFM via workspace. Any login to HFM that does not go through workspace, will inconsistently cause this error.
To resolve this issue in version 11.1.2.1, download and apply Patch 12865428.
Refer : Financial Management Error "The Parameter Is Incorrect" Appears Frequently in HsvEventlog.log After Upgrade to Version 9.3.3, 11.1.1.3.50 or 11.1.2.1 (Doc ID 1290122.1)

HFM 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2 upgrade - applications not visible in workspace

Hi Gurus,
                    Recently upgraded HFM system in distributed environment from version 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.2 on MS Win 2008 R2 platform and Oracle 11g database. There are two servers as follows:
Machine 1:     Foundation
                       Reporting
                       Workspace
                        HFM Web
Machine 2: Foundation common components
                   HFM
                   FDM
Applied maintenance release, configured existing databases for individual components and deployed to application server on existing domain (on Machine 1 WebLogic) which went fine. Lastly configured web server on Foundation (Machine 1 - Oracle HTTP). Then executed the HFM schema upgrade utility.
Workspace & shared services are working fine, HFM apps are appearing in shared services, hfm text appears using hfm url, services are running fine. Issue is that HFM applications do not show up on workspace.
Oracle support suggested applying adf patches, HFM 303 & 305 patches, but the problem remains even after applying all the suggested patches. Is this a bug in 11.1.2.2? Please help.
Thanks,
Hamminder

Hi Hamm,
The fact that you are saying that "hfm text appears using hfm url" can mean that you have not configured the workspace web server after you configured the HFM. Have you done that?
As another test, have you tried toy connect to HFM via smartview to an existing app?
Regards,
Thanos

HFM and Workspace 11.1.2.0 issues with opening Apps and reports via web

Hi,
we are running decentralized environment where we have HFM Web and App servers on Windows 2008 Server SP2 and few shared elements like OHS, HSS (Shared Services) and Workspace service from Solaris 10 SPARC (64bit) server.
The base version is 11.1.2.0 and on Windows we have fixes from 1-9 installed whereas on top of Solaris we have no fixes/patches yet installed.
When we test workspace from web server desktop connecting to Solaris server it seems traffic is fine as Apps are available and browsing them seems to work normally = Webserver is able to locate Workspace on Solaris, Workspace is able to connect to HFM App server and App server again able to connect HFM App db container.
When we access to workspace url over web (the traffic according to my understanding should go via OHS to Webserver and then redirect to Solaris server Workspace and then like mentioned above.
Something gets wrong here as when accessing Workspace url we get non-showing icons, $ characters in messed up menu rows and few error messages like :
- Invalid or could not find module configuration
- Required application module hfm.appcontainer is not configured. Please contact your administrator
- Namespace Communication Error
Also opening test report via web url workspace gives error:
Required application module reporting.reportViewer is not configured. Please contact your administrator.
+
Namespace Communication Error
Our experience from previous lower environment was that symptons like described might be caused by wrong service start order. Thus we tried to review this carefully and boot in correct order, but still problems. Also, boot order shouldn't be totally wrong as workspace works when using directly from Web server.
If any of mentioned symptons rings anyone's bell please reply.
Something still in firewalls or rather in configuration, OHS maybe?
At this point we don't yet dream of proper loadbalancing or High availability, but rather get this single web and single app server server + shared elements from Solaris server to work without error messages.
We do know that release 11.1.2.1 is supposed to fix many things, but we need to get this 11.1.2.0 working in a way or another.
Thanks for any tips that might arise.

Inventory says that Patch is not available but regedit has the patch.

Hello,
Ours is an HFM 11.1.1.3 and 3 months back we applied HFM 50 patch on it.
Last week when I was applying HFM 500 patch we noticed that when I fired "hpatch lsinventory" it did not had HFM 50 patch in it, but when I saw in the regedit I was able to see HFM 50 patch in it and also I could see HFM 50 patch in HFM client.
Then I tried applying HFM 500 patch but I got error saying pre-requisite HFM 50 patch is not available , so I applied HFM 50 patch again and then applied HFM 500 patch over it.
What I understood is that our inventory might have got created by somebody in our team, but my question is do we have to reapply all the patches every time when we re-create inventory and then try to apply higher version of HFM patch.
Regards,
Rajnish Singh

If you recreate the inventory you will lose the history of installed patches.
If you then need later to install a patch which has a prerequisite patch, you will need to reapply the prerequisites (as you did) before you can proceed with your new patch.
In short, you should not be recreating the inventory except in an emergency (corrupted) situation.
going forward, oracle will be trying to release less smaller Patch Set Exception patches and more complete PSU patches (Patch Set Updates). if you keep up to date with the Patch Set Updates and minor releases, even if an inventory is recreated somewhere along the line, there should not be too many additional patches to be installed.

HFM Report export to Excel changes cell category

Greetings,
we just updgrated to version 11.1.2.2 and are noticing some strange behavior coming out of an some HFM reports we are exporting to Excel.
We are trying to sum up some values and are getting #VALUE!. We have to manually change the category settings of all columns in order to enable any Excel formulas. This occurs when values are "-".
We can manually change Excel to reflect the cells to be numbers but there are a lot of reports to change, and on top of this, the prior version of HFM/Reports did not display that issue.
Pls let me know how to resolve this issue.. Many thanks.

Issue is not with HFM, but with FR Studio and version 11.1.2.2.302. Patch is available.
Patch # 16088101 -- FR 11.1.2.2.303
