Hyperion planning/Essbase performance Improvement/optimization

Hi Guys,
I got an emergency to do. I need to improve the performance of the data retrieval, Data saving, Form access.
Users trying to enter the budget data in Planning forms. For them data saving, data access, rules execution are taking very long time.
I cannot change the Dimension order in Essbase. I have to keep the same dimension order.
Please let me know what are the other optimization steps i can do now. I know about Cache settings (Data cache, index cache, buffer size)
Please tell me.
Thanks
Mahesh

Mahesh,
There isn't much you can do -- if the design is wrong, no amount of cache tweaking is going to solve it. Such is life.
Especially when you say that retrives/saves and calcs are slow. Sometimes you can tilt db design one way or the other, but typically you can't do both (okay, sometimes yes, but often there is a choice as to which one will be the beneficiary).
From a "don't change anything but make it faster" perspective, how about some smokin' hot hardware to push things along?
Okay, one more thing -- how about making the forms a lot smaller? That should speed the perception of performance. Sometimes perception is all.

  • Best Practice for Hyperion Planning : Essbase or Dataform for Adhoc Analysi

    Hi,
    with Hyperion Planning, you are able to start an Adhoc Analysis from an Hyperion Planning Dataform or from an Essbase cube?
    What is the best way / pro / contra ? thanks in advance
    .... I 've juste notice that when you delete the dataform the Retrieve doesn't work anymore :-( .... and with Essbase you get some "un-useful" dimension as HSP_Value
    Regards
    xavier

    A couple of other things that go with Planning as the data source:
    1) You have access to all of the non-Essbase data -- think SmartLists, text (okay, it's there now in Essbase, but not from Planning applications) fields, supporting detail, etc. If you want users to see that relationally stored data, the only other way to get it in Excel is to run a Financial Reports report into Excel (or hack the tables and write SQL to pull the stuff -- did that pre 11x and it's too much work).
    2) There's a performance hit when going against Planning, just like there is when Planning is the data source in Financial Reports.
    Using a form to limit dimensionality - isn't that what SmartSlices are for? I guess it's another way to get to the same place. Although you have to administer the SmartSlices, I would imagine they would break less often than a form might. Having said that, once built, how often do you delete a form?
    It's really nice that ad-hoc analysis from forms are now possible, but I've always thought of it as nice feature to have alongside data entry, never as the primary path into Essbase analysis.
    Just my $0.02.

  • ODI - Hyperion Planning/Essbase Knowlege Modules

    Hi All,
    I have installed and configured the ODI 11g Iam working with Hyperion EPM 11.1.2 series does any one let me know do we need the knowledge modules to be imported.Why do we need this knowledge modules for ODI as Iam new to this product I want to know more about this modules.
    Thanks,

    John,
    Thanks for your reply I got it.
    One quick question I have from ODI Series 4 from your blog
    I have created a new model for Files to be loaded. Then I have created new data store in that data model. I have exactly mapped the information as you mentioned in your blog In the column section when I click on reverse engineering I get the following error
    The directory E:\Hypdata\ODITest.csv specified in your schema does not exist
    But I have my file in that location.
    Can you tell me where Iam doing wrong.
    Thanks,

  • Hyperion Planning Classic or EPMA?

    Hi,
    We are creating new Hyperion Planning applications (11.1.2.2.300) and it is time to decide if we should continue using Hyperion Planning Classic or move to
    EPMA. We are already using Calculation Manager, but not Dimension and Application Library. Currently, we have DRM installed and we bring all Metadata
    from DRM into Oracle tables. We are using ODI to load data/Metadata from Oracle tables to Hyperion Planning / Essbase. I heard that Hyperion Planning Classic may go way in near future. I'm not aware of any ODI KM for EPMA but I know that EPMA has improved a lot recently. Any advice or comments on either way will be great appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Caio

    It is definitely not going away, if you take 11.1.2.3 there was lots of new functionality introduced for classic and not so much for EPMA, if you look at Oracle's cloud solution it is classic only as it runs on Linux and no windows which EPMA still requires.
    If you are already using DRM and ODI ask yourself what benefit you will get from EPMA, if you feel you will gain from EPMA then try it out, it is long old debate classic vs EPMA which everybody has there owns views on so there is no definite right or wrong but I know from experience which one I prefer
    Cheers

  • Error while configuration of Hyperion Planning

    I have successfully installed EPM, Hyperion Planning, Essbase , Reporting and Analysis Framework, EPM workspace.
    Then while doing configuration I got error at the stage of pre-configuration of Essbase server. Due to this it has not created respective Essbase service and hence we could not create any Data source.
    Please let us know if you have any idea on this. And are there any logs where we can check configuration related logs?
    Thanks

    Thanks John.
    I am using Windows Server(R) 2008 standard Service Pack 2.
    I checked logs and I found that in configtool_summary.log it is showing error as -

  • Hyperion Planning on Oracle DB 11.1.0.6.0(Microsoft Windows (x64))

    1. Is Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3 certified to work on Oracle DB 11.1.0.6.0 (Microsoft Windows (x64)) ?
    2. Is Oracle Database 11.1.0.6.0(Microsoft Windows (x64) certified to work on Windows 7 Pro 64bit ?

    You also do realize Hyperion Planning/Essbase/... is not supported on Windows 7 Pro. If you wish to install on a supported operating system install on Windows 2003 Server x64.
    Yes, 11.1.0.6 is supported as a database for Hyperion 11.1.1.3 - review the certification matrices for Hyperion at: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/hyperion-supported-platforms-085957.html
    No, Windows 7 is not a supported platform for 11.1.0.6 databas - review http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/install.111/b32305.pdf
    You can also located supported platforms with say 5 minute software with say 10 minutes of using google. If you do not have this much time to put towards the installation then you should not be installing as you should review all installation documentation before proceeding as it is at least a full day activity to do it properly (even after you have done it 20-30 times).

  • Optimal configuration of laptop in order to install EPMA 11.1.x (Planning & Essbase), VM Ware.

    Hi,
    I am planing to buy a new laptop and looking for optimal configuration of laptop in order to install EPMA 11.1.x (Planning & Essbase) to be run on VM Ware.
    Can you please suggest?
         Thanks.

    I have an old Lenovo W520 with 32GB of RAM and a 1TB Samsung Evo 840 SSD.  I have Planning, Essbase, EPMA, FR, Calc Manager and Oracle 12c running (version 11.1.2.4) on Windows Server 2012 R2.
    16GB of RAM will allow you to run a compact deployment, but probably not a "regular" deployment.  I don't like compact deployments as they can make it difficult to troubleshoot issues with individual products.
    I recommend 32GB of RAM.  I also recommend an SSD rather than a regular hard drive.  Quad-core processor is a must-have.
    I would look at either a Lenovo W541 (not the new W550s as it tops out at 16GB of RAM) or a Dell Precision M4800 or M6800.  If you really want to go nuts, check out Digital Storm/Clevo/Sager, where you can custom build your laptop.  These three appear to use the same components.
    Check out my blog where I illustrate step-by-step how to get Hyperion Planning running on a laptop.  I should have the last posts in the series up this weekend.

  • Improve web form performance of Hyperion Planning

    Hi all,
    I am not sure whether anyone has tried the recommended method from Oracle to compress the web forms used in Hyperion Planning so as to improve the network perfromance?
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12032_01/doc/epm.921/html_hp_admin/frameset.htm?/docs/cd/E12032_01/doc/epm.921/html_hp_admin/hpamin-19-17.htm
    Slow Performance When Opening Data Forms Using a Dial-Up Connection
    Scenario:
    Opening a data form using a slow network connection (for example, with a modem) takes a long time.
    Solution:
    You can significantly increase the network bandwidth when opening data forms by modifying the web.xml file, as described in this section. This solution compresses by approximately 90% the data stream sent from the Planning server to the client.
    Note: If you are using a WebLogic (all supported versions) Web application server, complete the second procedure, which is specific to WebLogic. If you are using any other Web application server, complete the first procedure, which contains general instructions.
    To modify the web.xml file to improve performance, for any Web application server except WebLogic:
    1 With a text editor, open the web.xml file, located in HyperionPlanning.ear or HyperionPlanning.war.
    2 After the tag </description> and before the tag <listener>, insert the following lines:
    <filter>
    <filter-name>HspCompressionFilter</filter-name> <filter-
    class>com.hyperion.planning.HspCompressionFilter</filter-class>
    <init-param>
    <param-name>compressionThreshold</param-name>
    <param-value>2048</param-value>
    </init-param>
    <init-param>
    <param-name>debug</param-name> <param-value>1</param-value>
    </init-param>
    </filter>
    <filter-mapping>
    <filter-name>HspCompressionFilter</filter-name>
    <url-pattern>/EnterData.jsp</url-pattern>
    </filter-mapping>
    3 Save the web.xml file.
    If you are using WebLogic, you must manually modify the .ear file and redeploy it for the Web application server.
    To improve performance with a WebLogic application server:
    1 Unzip the HyperionPlanning.ear file to C\:ear, for example.
    2 Unzip Hyperion.war under C:\ear to C:\war.
    3 With a text editor, open the C:war\WEB-INF\web.xml file and modify it using the instructions in step 2 in the preceding procedure.
    4 Compress the content in C:\war to C:\ear\HyperionPlanning.war.
    5 Compress the content in C:\ear into C:ear\HyperionPlanning.ear
    6 Deploy the new HyperionPlanning.ear for the WebLogic Web application server.

    Hi,
    Yes we did this with a bank which had branches connected to the servers via dial-up. They were complaining about the amount of data being transferred in between branches and servers. This has worked well over there and increased the data transfer performance considerably. However, nowadays the performance bottlenecks are not generally due to the amount of data being transferred over the network but the javascript components that should run on client and heavy calculation/data and report creation processes.
    Cheers,
    Alp

  • Where can I download a trial version of Hyperion Planning and essbase?

    I am new to Hyperion and want to train in it . Where can I download a trial version of Hyperion Planning and essbase?

    Edeliver is where you go to download any of Oracle products. They are not trial versions. They are full versions. The license that you must agree to inorder to download them are for development and self-educational purposes only.
    The main site is
    https://edelivery.oracle.com/
    From there you pick your language, identify yourself, and agree to the license agreement. Then, you select the product pack and OS of host system. Then, select the product you want to download. The products are splitup by component or modules. You must download everything you need. Foundation, Essbase, Planning, and Reporting and Analysis if you are going to do any reports.
    Product pack - Choose Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System
    OS - I use a 64bit OS, but choose the right one that you will be installing on.
    Then choose,
    Oracle Enterprise Performance Management (*11.1.2.0.0*) Media Pack for the OS you choose
    Once you have downloaded the required packs, unzip them all into one folder. Merge the folders together and copy and replace all files. Put a check mark in the box that asks to perform this for other conflicts.
    Once you have all packs unzipped, run InstallTool.cmd
    The documentation zip file can be downloaded from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/epm/documentation/epm-096302.html
    Hope this helps.

  • Performance issue - Hyperion Planning Web

    Hi,
    We are using Hyperion Planning 3.5 and Essbase 6.5.
    Our Application & Database servers are located in Dublin,USA.We access the application through web.All users access the application from the same Dublin location have no issue with the Application performance.But user's who access the application from outsideDublin(eg - Greensboro) are finding major issues with the application performance.Specifically with webforms and while running businessrules.And the issue occurs only during the peak of budget season when most of the users access application.
    Client state that,
    "The system is much slower out in the field than here in Dublin.It literally takes 15 – 20 minutes just to make a change and then after all that, it takes an hour to see the results only to find that they had to re-enter something. It’s really a very tedious process"
    Please advise.

    I am not really sure what I can suggest as you on such an early version, you could have a look at :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_hp_admin/ch13s16.html
    The information relates to version 9.3, it may be applicable to your version but I can't confirm that.
    You could also look into increasing the java heap size for the planning web application, though I can't remember the exact process on your version, if planning is not run as a service the settings are probably in one of the start up scripts for planning.
    Cheers

    Have you tried restarting the services and giving it a try?
    Which version of Essbase/Planning are you on?
    If your Essbase server name has more than 30 characters, please use NODENAME with short server name.

  • Hyperion Planning migration error while refreshing/creating Essbase cube

    Hi,
    I'm migrating a Hyperion Planning application (11.1.1.4) to a complete other environment (due to the split of the companies). I have read most post on otn, but unfortunately nothing that helped me to solve the issue, yet... I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance!
    I have executed the following steps:
    1. Create a new Oracle database
    2. Create a datasource to the Oracle database and to Essbase (both tested succesfully)
    3. Create a fresh planning application (I have used a native Admin account and not the original owner)
    4. Go into the database tables for the planning app and look at table HSP_USERS, store the SID value against user 50001
    5. Go into the database planning system tables and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application you have created - I did not do this since I could not delete this value. null is not accepted.
    6. Stop Planning
    7. Restore the planning application database over the one created in the first step (I had to drop the existing tables first)
    8. Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
    9. Start planning
    10. Log on to planning and I did see the webforms, etc as expected.
    11. Now, when I try to refresh the database, I receive an error:
    Cube refresh/create in progress
    Status failed
    Step 4 Adding dimensions
    java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: getAttributeType
    Does anyone has an idea? Hope someone can help me since the deadline is getting closer and closer.
    Thanks!
    Kind Regards
    Martin

    Hi John,
    Thanks for your reply.
    I have exactly done what you have described. I droped the schema and recreated it with an impdp to import.
    But, in the meantime I have been investigating the dimensions and there's indeed something very wrong. Some dimensions have been mixed up. In the 'old' environment I have 10 stored dimensions and 4 attribute dimensions (as well as in EAS as in Planning, offcourse as you expect). In the 'new' environment, two stored dimensions have been mixed up with two attribute dimensions.... How is that possible?
    I have never seen that. Could this be caused by the reason that we use a different version of Oracle (11G release 2 vs 10G (10.2.0.4))? Or went something wrong with exporting the schema...? Can you tell me what I can do to investigate this?
    Thanks!
    Kind Regards,
    Martin

  • Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 "Configure Data Sources" freezes at Essbase conf

    Hi!
    I am setting up a demo environment of Hyperion Planning for one of our customers (my first time installing this application). The platform is Windows Vista Business 32-bit. RDBMS is Oracle 10g on another machine. I've successfully installed Hyperion 9.3.1 Shared Services, Essbase, Essbase Admin Services and Planning application.
    I've successfully configured all the applications (with the Configuration Utility) besides Hyperion Planning. I can access Workspace, User Management Console, Essbase Administration Services (and connect to my localhost Essbase server from there), etc - thus I believe that the installations and configuration of these modules is successful.
    When I try to finish my Hyperion Planning configuration with the utility, the last step is to "Configure Data Sources" (previous configuration steps including "Product Instance Registration" were successful).
    I start the configuration utility, select the properties, enter the Oracle db connection properties (no error there), then enter the Essbase connection properties (the same which enable me to add this server in the Essbase Administration Services, view and start applications, etc) and the installer just freezes.. hangs indefinitely..
    Server: localhost
    uid and password are the ones I provided during essbase installation/configuration
    I've tried this configuration step multiple times, I've restarted the machine. The maximum time I've waited is ~30min.
    Questions:
    # Is it normal for the Essbase configuration page to freeze after clicking "Next" for 30min (maybe I'm just impatient, I'm new to Hyperion)
    # What could be wrong?
    # How could I see the error message - is there an error log somewhere?
    Many thanks for your time.

  • Making Changes in Essbase & Hyperion Planning

    when we make changes in Hyperion Planning Application they show changes in Essbase Application also but When we make changes in Essbase Application It does not show changes in Hyperion Planning Application. Why?

    Any changes you want to make to the Essbase database for Hyperion Planning must be done through the Planning app. Otherwise direct changes made on the Essbase side will be erase upon the refresh.^^^Not strictly true -- the Essbase UDA_HSP allows Essbase-only properties without reference to Planning. This is the way Planning worked till System 9. You can still use this UDA in Planning -- I used it in Planning just last week for a Scenario member calculation that referenced members in only one Plan Type out of three. It is a pain in the rear and impossible to resolve in Planning member formulas themselves.

  • Reconfigure issues in EPMA with hyperion products(essbase,HFM,Planning)

    Hi All,
    Reconfigure issues in EPMA with hyperion products(essbase,HFM,Planning,calc manager,etc.,)
    I have created new schema for foundation and one more schema for all other hyperion products and try to reconfigure but i unable to configure and all components are not shown in some hyperion products( in workspace in administer im unable to see classic application, in essbase im unable to see all application...).
    as per my understanding im unable to see *"Registerd with shared services"* for each products in the final stages of configure.
    Please try to know that what may be the cause.
    Thanks & Regards,
    Kittu.

    I can't answer the Import profile, though could you expand on

    In planning i was not able to import Security and planning units. Can you please help?Are you trying to import access permissions using LCM ?
    If you are importing security into a target application then I believe that the users will need to exist in the tables before you do so.
    I would run the provisionusers.cmd or go into the planning app and go to provision dimension security and click migrate identities.
