How to Interchange Member Names (None Name) with their Alias?

I have a Parent Child Alias hierarchy in DRM. What is needed is INTERCHANGING iof Alias with Member Names (Child). So, Reporting Segments is replaced by OR0778 and always referred as this in the hierarchy. This will eventually be exported as flat file hierarchy and loaded up on Essbase. How can we do this on DRM?
Lines of Business|Allocated Business Lines - w/Disc Ops|OR80003
Allocated Business Lines - w/Disc Ops|Reportable Segments|OR0778
Reportable Segments|National Lending|OR00781
National Lending|Platform Management|DI15081
National Lending|National Lending Admin Roll-up|
National Lending Admin Roll-up|Natl Lending FCST - Profit|
National Lending Admin Roll-up|Natl Lending Management|DI17037
ROW2: Reportable Segments should be replaced by OR0778 as member name
AND ROW3: Instead of Reportable Segments USE OR0778 and then the child should be OR00781 (member name for National Lending
and so on.
For some records, Alias is not present. In that case, use the current member name itself.

Please be clear dude, what's the crux of the question?
If you can just summarise what you want to do in a sentence or two. It seems like you gonna have to crack a script for this one but yeah! explain.

How to extract Member Names in MDX script?

I have a MDX script that by default gives me member aliases. How can I change it so it'd give me member names? I know I can use something like that:
NON EMPTY [Employee].Levels(0).Members DIMENSION PROPERTIES [Employee].[Member_Name]ON AXIS(4)
but then it gives me member aliases AND member names, and I need the names only.
Thanks!

The syntax you have is the way to get the member names, but as I said you wouldn't like the way it is displayed. MDX is not a reporting language and so it does not have the nice formatted selections. You will get both alias and member name by using the properties. you could run the output through some sort of parser (Perl perhaps) to get the format you want

How to increase member name length in essbase studio

Hi All,
Currently we have requirement to build a hierarchy which contains member having length more than 80 characters.
I seen somewhere where the member name limitation is 80.
Can someone help me out how to build the hierarchy with long member name
Thanks,
SatyaB

You would have a hard time containing your comments into a cube especially because they are so freeform. You said you are using Studio to create your cube. Create a drill through report that when users are at a selected intersection of data, the can execute a drill through report to get additional detail. For instance in addition to the comments column, there might be other information on the table they would want to see. You can select what columns get returned.
For example, I've jusr drill through in a GL cube to get back to the Journal Entries. It allowed the users to see all sorts of things, like all the JEs for a cost center, who created them, comments, currency conversion done fromn the source system, when they were posted, etc.
Because they are not in the cube, it makes the cube a lot cleaner.

How to change member names in mass

Hi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to change about 100 member names all at once in Essbase instead of doing this manually?
Thank you!

Good idea, Sunil, and I've done this in the past. You don't even necessarily need to do that 'dummy parent' stuff if you have a source file from which you can build the entire dimension again with the 'remove unspecified' option.
I've also used Glenn's approach.
What you really must think about in either situation is whether any of the new names match existing member names. That definitely complicates things.
Honestly, if you don't already have the code written, for a strictly one-off 100 member change it would probably be faster to suck it up and work through them in EAS. But where's the fun in that, right?

How to place file names with thumbnails?

I have several thousand images that need to go online but I cannot for the life of me figure out how to add file names to the thubnails. Every bit of documentation I've read talks about adding it to the larger images only. I figured that part out but can't I have file names for the thumbnails too?

Bummer. I was hoping for a secret key to take me there. I have too
many images that can be scanned via thumbnails and for the detail
shots they can go larger. There is no way I can use this as it is with
9000+ images that need to be gone through quickly. Thanks for the
answer.

How to get cluster name with c++ API?

Hi everyone,
I want to get cluster name with c++ API, do you know how to do that?
Thanks very much!!!

Hi Robert,
For Java, we can get the cluster name like this:
cache.getCacheService.getCluster().getClusterName(),
for c++, just as you said, do you mean that i can try to get cluster name like this:
Sting::View name = cache->getCacheService()->getInfo()->getServiceName();
InvocationService::handle invocation = cast<InvocationService::handle>(CacheFactory::getService(name));
String clusterName = invocation->getInfo()->getServiceName();
But i can not get the right result.
I know little about how to use InvocationService, could you give me example?
Thanks very much!!!
GuangyinHi Guangyin,
I do not know the C++ API, I never used it, but what you wrote definitely does not look right.
InvocationService is a way to send arbitrary Java logic (you need to write both the Java logic and a C++ counterpart class, the C++ class will serialize itself with POF and the Java class will deserialize the same data appropriately) as a command to the cluster via the TCP*Extend connection and the command would execute on the proxy node and thus it would have access to the cluster itself.
You probably should start with the documentation of the Coherence*Extend C++ API documentation for samples.

How to retrive table names with Java?

Hello!
If I connect to my Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Instance with some Java code and I run the following code:
               ResultSet resultSet = databaseMetaData.getTables(null, null, "%", types);
               while( resultSet.next() )
                    String tableName = resultSet.getString(3);
                    System.out.println(tableName);
I get loads of different names of tables beside those that belongs to my user like:
DR$NUMBER_SEQUENCE
DR$OBJECT_ATTRIBUTE
DR$POLICY_TAB
ARTICLES
BIN$tQZXQ0iGufbgQAB/AQELFg==$0
BIN$tQZXQ0iLufbgQAB/AQELFg==$0
But when I log in to http://127.0.0.1:9090/apex I get a perfect list of the tables belonging to the user:
ARTICLES
CUSTOMERS
DATATYPES
ORDERROWS
ORDERS
REQUESTROWS
REQUESTS
SUPPLIERROWS
SUPPLIERS
Does any one understand how to access just these table names that is created with my user?
Best regards
Fredrik

Hello Adrian!
Yes you are right I now understand that this is the wrong forum.
So I posted the "same question" at:

How to print Field name with value of a Class object?

hi, In C#, I need to print a class field or property name with value without using reflection or string.join method.
For eg.
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
List<EmployeeInfo> obj = new List<EmployeeInfo>();
obj.Add(new EmployeeInfo { eid = 123 });
obj.Add(new EmployeeInfo { ename = "abc" });
Response.Write(obj.ToString()); // output must be => ename ="abc" , eid = 123
public class EmployeeInfo
public string ename;
public int eid;
It need to be resulted as follows automatically with property name and value :
ename ="abc" , eid = 123
It need to be resulted with good performance and simple way.

You could override ToString method in EmployeeInfo class:
public class EmployeeInfo
public string ename;
public int eid;
public override string ToString()
return string.Format("ename =\"{0}\" , eid = \"{1}\"", ename, eid);
protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
EmployeeInfo obj = new EmployeeInfo() { eid = 111, ename = "aaa" };
Response.Write(obj.ToString());

List of avaliable MDX properties / Always show member name instead of alias

Hi all,
does anyone know if there is a list of ALL available MDX properties which can be used in an MDX query with Essbase?
There is a very small list in the technical documentation (http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/esb_techref/mdx_properties.htm), however I know there are a lot more properties.
E.g. one property which is not documented is ANCESTOR_NAMES:
WITH MEMBER [Year].[dummy] AS '0', SOLVE_ORDER = 0
SELECT {[Year].[dummy]} on columns,
[Account].Members properties ANCESTOR_NAMES on rows
FROM [App.Db];
Anyone knows if there is such a list?
And another question:
The Query always brings up the alias of the members (e.g. [Account].Members). Is there a way that per default the member name instead of the alias is used? Without using the MEMBER_NAME property?
Essbase version: 11.1.1.3
Thanks

However, e.g. the porperty PARENT_UNIQUE_NAME does not work. Also the Book MDX solutions has a list with it with e.g. PARENT_UNIQUE_NAME specified which does not work...
Anyone an idea how to get a list of all properties valid with MDX using Essbase?

How to change the Name and/or Alias of a Public Folder Mailbox in Exchange 2013

So when I migrated our servers from 2010 to 2013. I did not plan well and ended up with this.
Name                      Alias
Mailbox1                  PF1
Mailbox2                  Mailbox2
Mailbox3                  Mailbox3
As you can see the first mailbox is named PF1. I want to be able to change both the name and the alias, but have failed to find mechanism for doing so in ecp or powershell. Any assistance is greatly appreciated. I would also like to change the email address
for these as right now they are [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]
Thank you very much
