Hyperion Planning Upgrade License fee

Hi,
If we upgrade Planning 3.3.1 to 9.3.1, do we have to pay an additional license fee apart from the support fee?
Madhura.

Unless something has changed, the answer is yes. I'd talk to my sales person to determine what that fee is.

Hyperion Planning Upgrade from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2

Hyperion Planning Upgrade from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2
So far I have done the following 3 steps:
1. I have successfully installed and configured Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.2 in a new Server. (Windows Server 2008 R2).
2. I have created a blank classic Planning Application in 11.1.2.2.
3. I have copied the relational database from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.2
Could you please let me know the next steps to perform the upgrade?
Should I use the Migrate Button in the Hyperion Planning Webpage or use the option in the EPM System Configurator "Upgrade existing database to the current release from 11.1.1.3". Please advise.
Note : A native User is the owner of the Planning Application in 11.1.1.3 and hence I made the same in 11.1.2.2 also.
Also, please let me know if I need to migrate the shared services security and convert the HBRs to Calc Manger rules first before upgrading the Planning Application.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks John for your quick response.
Yes, I have performed a clean install and then going for upgrading the existing Planning Application.
The Application owner in both the source and target Applications is a native user named hypadmin (not the default admin user). Do you want me to change the owner to default admin user, or the user hypadmin is ok to go with?
Please advise.
Also, is there any specific order I need to follow for migrating the below components?
1. Shared Services Security
2. HBRs to Calc Manger Rules
3. Existing Planning Application Upgrade

Hyperion Planning upgrade issue : Upgrade planning 9.3.1 to 11.1.1.3

Hyperion Planning Upgrade

Hi
we are planning to upgrade our environment(Planning,FR,HSS,EAS etc..) from 9.3.1 to 9.3.3.
what is the brief procedure to upgrade to 9.3.3
Is it patch installation on the existing environment? or we have to install the software on new servers and migrate the application?
If its a patch installation, do we have to make any mojor changes to the application.
please suggest..
Thanks,

You don't have to install on different servers, there is a readme for each product which tells you how to upgrade/deploy to the 9.3.3 release.
They are available at - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/nav/portal_1.htm
Make sure you read everything very carefully and be totally sure you understand before upgrading, if it is not clear then call in a consultant to help with the upgrade.
Cheers

Why do we have to pay full license fee when upgrading to FMIS 4?

Just tried to order FMIS 4 but it's not possible to upgrade from FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 4. I know it was previously possible to upgrade from streaming editions to FMIS 3.5 and we paid only the upgrade fee (I think $3500) vs the full license fee ($4500). Now it doesn't appear as if we can upgrade from FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 4 and we have to buy a brand new license. Why is this so? If it's not technically possible to upgrade from FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 4 then why can't we at least get a discount for the money we paid on previous version licenses?
I have a few FMSS licenses and I'm choosing not going to upgrade to FMIS 4 because of this.
On a side note, it looks as if it's possible to upgrade FMSS 3.5 to FMIS 3.5 and then FMIS 3.5 to FMIS 4. Of course you pay for two upgrades then.
Can Adobe shed some light on this?

You can check it here: https://store2.adobe.com/cfusion/store/html/index.cfm?store=OLS-IE&event=displayProduct&ca tegoryPath=/Applications/FlashMediaInteractiveSvr&distributionMethod=UPGRADE
I would suggest contact the dealer/reseller from whom you got 3.5 and ask him/her the same.
if you still dont get the info do let me know.

Hyperion Planning Licenses

Hi,
It may sound naive, but i wold be glad if anyone can help about Hyperion Licensing (i already went through EPM Licensing Guide 11.1.2):
My doubt is if a client has purchased 25 User license for Hyperion Planning does that mean i can create only 25 users in native directory , if yes what if i want to configure active directory If No, then where does this number 25 will put constraints.
Appreciate any help.

I will get in touch with Oracle Account Manager .
What i understand for now is if there 25 names user licenses , then at a given time i can have 25 provisioned users irrespective of number of native or AD users.
Will update if i get any more clarifications.
John thanks gain, your blog/replies/posts have been great help in understanding EPM concepts and resolving doubts.
Cheers

How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.

HI,
How to find maximum number of users we can assign for Hyperion Planning.i.e., how to find license limit in hyperion planning 11.1.2.1.
In Essbase propreties, the system is showing maximum planning users could be 65535.
what would be the number for concurrent scenario?
Thanks
Giri
Edited by: Giriprasad on Jun 18, 2012 2:18 AM

The number of users would be based on your license agreement with Oracle, the system is not aware of your license agreement so it is up to you to stick to it.

Hyperion Planning Classic vs. BPMA 9.3

Hi,
We are on Hyperion Planning 9.3 (including all latest patches). We are in the process of building a new Planning application. Currently we donot have an ETL tool and it doesnt seem we will get one for the next few months until our new Planning application is deployed into production. So in a nutshell we wont have an ETL to solve the below problem.
I have used Planning Classic along with an ETL tool to build my meta-data in past implementations, and havent had a chance to use BPMA. Lately I have started getting aquinted with BPMA and understand some of its advantages. However, I still have a few specific questions;
1. I know Planning Classic allows manual creation of members, does BPMA allow the same? Or does BPMA have to have flat file or interface table to create or add members? Our business users would be manually creating some members, or for instance change the start or end month of a 'Scenario'. So, does BPMA allow manual editing and pushing of meta-data?
2. If an application is created via BPMA, they would have to interface via BPMA and not Planning Classic anymore. Is that true?
3. I understand it is possible to convert a Planning Classic application into BPMA but "NOT" vice versa. Is this true?
4. Finally, a more difficult question, a more specific question which kinda of dictates the choice for us.
My client would like individual departments do their respective budgeting (noting unusual there). However, most of these departments budget per 'Project' and more specifically like to budget based on 'Project Name' (which are unique and not generic) as opposed to 'Project Numbers' (there isnt a Project number standardization as such yet). The challenge is getting the 'Project Names' into Hyperion Planning (sadly it doesnt exist in ERP/GL yet because these are new projects).
So, though the Finance Team ultimately approves each department's budget, they would like each department be able to create their respective 'Project Names' in Hyperion Planning. And Planning capabilities like supporting detail, etc wouldnt work as they would like variance based on 'Project Names' and be able to slice-n-dice based on 'Project Names'.
Now if we had an ETL tool the above would have been simple, I would have just created an automation to say pick-up a file with 'Project Names' from a pre-determined folder location. However, because we donot have an ETL, I was wondering if BPMA could do the same, i.e., automatically pick-up a file from a folder and create members and refresh Hyperion Planning? Could the 'Batch Processing' in BPMA handle this?
Appreciate all your responses...

Hi,
First of all I wouldn't recommend using EPMA until version 11, 9.3.1 was riddled with issues.
To try and answer some of your questions
1. You can manually maintain members in EPMA if you choose to do so, you need to push it down to planning/essbase if you do make changes.
2. If the planning app is in EPMA mode then you can't edit/add/delete member information through the classic route, you can view. You still can design forms, task lists etc through planning web.
3. It is possible but no you are not meant to.
Sounds like you could do with ODI it would make your life easier, are you sure you are not licensed to use it, you may be entitled to use it.
Cheers

How to find out total of number of users accessing Hyperion Planning applications ?

Hi All,
Could someone help me with the details of how to find out total number of users who are accessing Hyperion Planning application in Env.?
This is with regard to licenses so wanted accurate and unique information,
Thanks
Amith

Hello Amith,
I think you should have a look at the blog of Cameron Lackpour http://camerons-blog-for-essbase-hackers.blogspot.be/
In the "Shared Services Stupid Trick" blogs, he shows how to find the real access to an application. The side benefit is that it is amusing to read.
In how far this is OK for the licenses is written on another page. You likely need to use the same method as Oracle does. Ask the Salesperson how to do this. (I am curious what his/her reply is).
Regards,
Philip Hulsebosch.

Hyperion Planning Workspace - Export option missing in IE 8

Hello,
I am using v9.2 of Hyperion Planning. I noticed that the option to export Financial Studio Reports in Workspace does not appear in Internet Explorer 8 while in 6/7 it did. Is there any fix for this problem or any workaround?
Regards

I doubt IE8 is supported on 9.2, I know there are patches for 9.3 though I have not heard about any for 9.2, suppose Oracle want to force an upgrade.
Cheers

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.
Mike

Smart View 9.3.1 error to connecting Hyperion Planning using Excel

Hello Folks,
When I try to connect the Hyperion Planning 9.3.1 using Smart View 9.3.1 I had the following error "Client authorization is needed to accpet the certificate". I am using the URL connection with the following address http://server_name:8300/HyperionPlanning/SmartView.
Regards,
Wallace
Brazil

Venkat,
Based on our web session your production BEA license has not been installed and your production server is limiting the number of unique connections to five clients. Those first five clients who connected to the system.
As we proved in the web session Internet Explorer gets a 403 error and Firefox shows the root cause of the five license issue.
You may verify this by looking at the license.bea file on your servers and you will see it is an evaluation license. Being a licensed Hyperion customer entitles your company to use a restricted use WebLogic in a non-clustered environment. Below is the proper license.
The fix for this is to do the following:
1) Download a license code from Oracle
2) Go to http://licensecodes.oracle.com/bea.html
3) Download LIC-WLXB92
4) On your server(s) backup <BEA_DIRECTORY>\license.bea
5) Copy text file within the LIC-WLXB92 over the license.bea file
6) Restart your Hyperion Services

Notification message box of Hyperion Planning when user login

Can we have a notification message box popup when user login Hyperion Planning or Workspace application? We would like to communicate to the end users by the system instead of just email because some end users may not check the email so frequently. It is the best to notify end users about any latest changes e.g. budget rate, etc when they login the system to check data or print reports.
We noticed that there is a broadcast message feature but only limit to those users already online. And the message will not shown when there are some users login later. We would like to have some notice board like message instead of instant messaging.
The online help of "broadcast message" feature:
"Use broadcast messaging to communicate a text message to all Planning users currently logged on to an application. For example, you can send messages about system availability or periodic maintenance. You should also send broadcast messages to request that users log out before upgrading or migrating applications.
You can send broadcast messages using the Web client or a command line utility. If you send them using the Web, they are sent to users of your current application. If you send them using the command line, you can specify any application, without being logged on to it. You can also schedule messages using standard operating system mechanisms. "
Thanks in advance!

I have tried the above step and it only works when i am in the advanced mode. but when i change to basic mode i can see the forms and still can access without any disturbance. for your help i am pasting the planningcentral.jsp so that you could suggest me something other.

Planning upgrade from system 9.2 to System 11

Hi,
Can any one pls. let me know the upgradation process from Hyperion Planning version 9.2 to version 11 ? Can we directly migrate from version 9.2 to 11 ?
Thanks,
PR

Hi,
I would not go down trying to directly upgrade from 9.2. to V11.
I would back up all your planning objects, install configure V11 and perform a standard planning migration, it will upgrade the planning relational database.
Cheers

WLC upgrade license and access point

Hi everyone,
I need suggestion regarding wlc 5508 upgrade license. Right now i have 150 license for access points. There will be upgrade around 300 access points. So we are planning to buy new license until the maximum capacity of 5508 (500 licenses).
Our management ip address is 192.168.50.x/24 . so all the access point are pointed to this management ip address (in the same subnet)
First question,
Because there will be an upgrade to around 450 access point. The current management ip address will not be enough.
Please, give me the best suggestion ?
Should i create another management ip address ? or I need to make a bigger subnet using the current management ip address ?
if i create a bigger ip address, the current access points must be set again yups ?
Second question
There will be a new link connected to the wlc, and i want to create new user subnets.
what is the best practices for this matter ?
if there are better suggestion, please let me know, i am still learning about wireless
I have attached the topology.
Thank you
Fanie

For an example, a 5508 can support up to 500 AP's, and the AP's can be in one large subnet or be in many different subnets and or even different locations. As long as the ap knows how to discover the WLC or the ap already had joined the WLC, then the AP's don't have to be on the same subnet as the WLC. The easiest way to have AP's join is to stage them on the same subnet as the WLC management and then move them to a different subnet. I would probably have no more than 100 AP's per subnet, but that's me. Stage some AP's on the management subnet that the WLC is on and then when the AP's join and complete downloading code, change the switch port Vlan and shut and no shut the port. The ap will come back up and join the WLC.
