Installing BPC to NLB Ap servers

Hi All,
I want to make a formation of 4 servers as redundant system to keep high availability.
That system include 2 application servers as Network Load Balancing (NLB) and 2 database servers as Microsoft Cluster Services (MSCS).
The 'BPC Master and Installation guide.pdf' has no information about this kind of installation, so we tested a little in our Lab.
Through our Lab test, I confirmed how to perform the Multiserver Installation when I use MSCS instead of single machine as SQL/OLAP server. (I think the only thing I should do is specify cluster name as SQL server name)
However, I can't understand how to install BPC into NLB when NLB is used on application layer yet.
Would you tell me how can I do it?
Regards
Hiroki

I believed that I could make my NLB Web and AP server, but during the installation I could specify the full name of NLB (like nlb1.mydmain) as web server name and couldn't specify that NLB as AP server.
Is that mean only one real server can be the application server of BPC?
If so, I think it means that NLB can't be the solution to get high availability on BPC. Is there any other solution on that case?
I have a document file named "NLB Environment Best Practices for installing CPM.doc" .
In this document, ex-OutlookSoft described how to install ex-OutlookSoft CPM software on NLB servers.
Is there a document about BPC 5.x like this?

Installing BPC on a different domain apart from BI

Dear experts,
Currently I have BPC working with BI on the same domain. And I know there're some services triggered by domain accounts which across BPC and BI.
However, our client need BI & ERPs to be isolated in a domain and web servers (including BPC) serves in another domain which contains all users.
Question: Can I install BPC on a different domain apart from BI? If so, what port do I need for BPC to connect to BI? How do I deal with the services authentication between BPC and BI?
Many thanks for any comments,
Jim Hsu

Installed BPC 7.0 for MS, but cannot connect to server in admin console

I have installed BPC 7.0, and in the server manager, everything is ok, and seems to be running and there are no errors. When I attempt to connect to the server with the Admin Console, I am getting the following error:
"The sstem cannot connect to the XXXXX Application server. Verify that you have Specified a valid Application server name, or see if the Application server is unavailable at this time"
any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I would request you to try few things.
1. This is might be because there are other processes using port 1080.
   Log on to the application server via Remote Desktop.
   Open Task Manager and select the Processes tab.
   Select ManagementAgentNT.exe and choose End Process.
   Select RouterNT.exe and choose End Process.
   Log into IIS and START the Default Website.
2. Another possible cause can be if the Server and Client are running different versions of BPC. If the version of BPC is different on the server and the client then an uninstall will need to be done on the client
3. The APPINFO.XML file is corrupt. Delete the APPINFO.XML file located on the client machine in folder "My Documents\OutlookSoft" and login again using the connection wizard.
Hope one of the above resolves your issue.

Install BPC for Office memory error

Hi, I have a Windows 7 workstation with 8Gb of RAM. When I try to install BPC for Office, I get the following error: 'Not enough memory. A minimum of 64 MB of memory is require." How do I get around it?

Hi
As per Sorinu2019s response, until 7.5 there is no official support for Windows 7 or 64-bit operating system.
However, with that said, if you still wish to progress at your own risk, then you can do so.
You will first need to get Microsoft .Net 1.1 (32-Bit) installed and configured.
Then you can install BPC client. However, you cannot install the client from the OSOFT WebPage, else you will receive 'Not enough memoryu2019 error.
You will need to copy the two executables for the client installation (EverestAdmin and EverestClient) to the client PC and install by running these executables. You must be logged onto the client PC as an account with full local Administrator privileges, and you must also be logged in as an account with full local Administrator privileges for first logon to BPC Admin and BPC Office client.
Be aware that certain functionality may not work as expected, for example PDF Publishing.

Error in installing BPC 5.1

Hi experts,
When we are trying to install BPC 5.1 then we are geting error saying that "System Exception:Can not create ActiveX component".
Can anyone plz suggest the solution.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Prakash

I think your problem is related to rights of installation user.
It should be administartot into that computer.
Or it is related to the fact that installation of SQL, OLAP was not done with default instances and in that case you have to specified the right instances during the installation of SAP BPC.
Also can you please provide the information what version of SAP BPC 5.1 are you trying to install?
When you launch the installation of SAP BPC are you using startup.exe or setup.exe.
You have to use startup.exe
Let me know if any of suggestion help if not I will try to provide others.

Proactive caching Error while installing BPC 7.0 SP6

All,
We are installing BPC 7.0 sp 6 on Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (RTM) - 10.0.1600.22 (Intel X86) Jul 9 2008 14:43:34 Copyright (c) 1988-2008 Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2 <X86> (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
In short SQL 2008 Standard Edition. Will BPC 7.0 work with it?
We tried to install the BPC and recived the "Proactive caching" errors. I know we will need this feature for ROLAP.
Can we keep Standard Edition and make it work? Or we will need EE of SQL for BPC to work?
Thanks for your help.
Sam
Edited by: Sam Patel on Mar 24, 2010 10:05 AM

SQL Server EE is required for all SAP BPC Microsoft versions.
BPC is using functionalities from SSAS delivery just with EE.
Proactive caching is one the features available just into EE not into SE. But are also other features used by BPC from SSAS which can be found just into EE.
It is true that actually just for SSAS we require EE, for all other componetnts we don't really need EE.
So the installation will work, but of course you will have some limitations coming from Microsoft.
For example SQL Server SE is able to handle maximum 4 processors.
RS can not be installed into Web farm if you are using SE
And many others.
I hope this will help you to have a bteer view about what is reguired and why.

Installing BPC 7.5 on Windows Server 2003.

Hi all.
I'm installing BPC 7.5 on Windows Server 2003.
The step: Sap bpc installation - "check server environments" is taking too long.
Is that normal???

Hi Gisele,
no that step does not usually take very long (a few minutes at most).
Did you check that your server meets the requirements as listed in the instalation guide?

Problem with web BPC after installing BPC 7.0

Hi all!
We have installed BPC 7.0 for Microsoft. Diagnostics in Server Manager showed that everything is OK. But when we open BPC for Web an such error occurs:
Server Error in '/OSoft' Application.
Compilation Error
Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.
Compiler Error Message: BC30456: 'Security' is not a member of 'Microsoft'.
Thanks for help.

Hi Denis,
To fix this issue, you will need to install the Microsoft Anti-Cross Site Scripting Library, which provides protection to Web-based applications against Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) attacks.
You can download it at the following URL:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=efb9c819-53ff-4f82-bfafe11625130c25&
displaylang=en
After having installed it, you will need to copy AntiXssLibrary.dll to <BPC_folder>\Websvr\Web\bin on both the BPC Application server and the BPC Web server.
You can find more information about this process in the Installation Guide for SAP Business Planning and Consolidation 7.0, version for the Microsoft platform (p.24-25).
Best regards,
Julien

How to install BPC help file

Can somebody point me in the right direction for installing the SAP help files for BPC. I have installed BPC, it's configured and working, but a user says there's supposed to be help file and I can't find anything about them in the installations and master guide.

As indicated above, help files do exist in MS version within the application. Perhaps you're inquiring the NW version which does not have the help file within the application. In that case, you need to go to help.sap.com and find the BPC help file for NW.
The right navigation would be
help.sap.com->SAP Business Objects->Business Planning and Consolidation->SAP BPC 7.0 version for SAP NetWeaver.
You will also find the help file for other versions here as well.

Installing BPC NW 7.0 - Problem with SystemAdmin User ID

Dear experts,
I´m trying to install BPC 7.0 for NW but there´s a problem regarding installation guide page 21 u201CSpecify the Administrator and password for the Windows Server that you are logged on tou2026u201C. .Net Server Components is supposed to be installed on a Win 2003 Server (32Bit). For the installation I logged on with my domain user[USER1]. This user is defined as a local administrator but not as a domain administrator. This user is also assigned to BPC SysAdmin User, BPC AdminUser and BPC User. During the installation process I was asked to enter the SystemAdmin User ID. First I typed in companyUSER1 and other local Administrators but I always got a failure notice saying that this was not an Administrator. Although I tried to use our super-administrator (Domain Administrator and local Administrator) it didn´t work either.
Does anyone have an idea of the mistake I made or maybe had the same problem and can provide solutions?
Thanks for your help.
Markus

Hi Markus,
the sysadmin does not need domain admin rights. So th eproblems is elsewhere.
is that account directly a member of the local Administrators group? Or is is a local admin through other groups (like it's a member of GroupXYZ and GroupXYZ is a member of the local Administrators group).
I believe that the BPC installer checks for direct membership in the group, rather than for effective rights.
Best regards
Bruno

When i run Client diagnostics, it says that your computer has met all requirements. Please wait while BPC Administration software is downloaded.
but when i start the client download, system prompts me to Login to BPC server, Uname, PW, Domain. i enter the admin ID i used to install BPC, but i get LOGIN FAILED, DO YOU WANT TO RETRY? i have tried loging in using other accounts i created during BPC installation but failed.
What ID is BPC looking for??
Thanks in advance!

Hi all,
I am using BPC 7 for MS.
I able to login the BPC launch page, Run client diagnostics etc..
When i click BPC for office installation or BPC Administration Installation, it prompts me to enter login details. i enter the admin user i used to install BPC or the user i used to login BPC launch page, but fails.
Does the client installation really require you to enter login details? Also, i tried to change the login credentials in SERVER MANAGER. still the same result. what other areas should i check for the user credentials?
Hope u can help
Thanks!
