MAXL and Transparent Partition

Hello,
I am actually working on the Hyperion Essbase EPM 11.1.2
I am trying to create a transparent partition using a MaxL command:
When I create manually this partition (using EAS): This is validated and data are copied.
When I run the MaxL: The partition, appear but it seems to be broken, I can only repaire or delete the new partition.
If I try to repair it (in EAS), It does not work. I don’t manage to link my partition to source and target database.
I have used with two different users : Admin (native directory) and another user (admin access).
Thanks for your answer,
Arthur.

Hi,
What the error message you are getting.
When you create a partition via Mxl editor it will open the interface to create the partiton. Check this Mxl with your mxl.
Thanks,

DynCalc And Transparent Partitions

Following Problem:We have a big cube (13 dimensions!!!)covering 5 years of data, which i build up every month (for performance reasons). The 5 years are members of a separate (sparse) dimension.I also have a scenario dimension (sparse) including members like actual, forecast, LastYear (DynCalc), variance (Dyncalc),...Now I think of splitting the cube in 5 single cubes, one for each year (including the scenarios actual and forecast) that should serve as the data sources in a transparent partition.The data target should be a cube with all 13 dimensions (including all years!) and all scenarios (incl. the dynamically calculated ones). Unfortunately a retrieve on e.g. the member "lastyear" (DynCalc) shows a very low performance!Any ideas?(BTW: all 13 dimensions are necessary....)

Depending on how much physical memory you have, bump up your Index Cache. You will also want to bump up your CALCCACHEHIGH to 199999999. Refer to this setting in all your memory intensive calc scripts. Unfortunately, using transparent partitioning adds a layer of overhead to data retrieves. If you have ample storage space, try changing the member option to dynamic calc and store. This will help out the performance for next user who retrieves this data. I have a very similar model. Less dimensions but some huge hierarchies.

Transparent Partitioning Error

Can somebody please help with this error :
[target] - partition definition is not valid: [unable to process area for slice [1] see server log]

There are 2 cubes A, B and transparent partition created to third final cube C with both of them. On partition b/w cube B and cube C following error is coming:
[target] - partition definition is not valid: [unable to process area for slice [1] see server log]
I read somewhere on google that this error comes when there is problem with other partitions on same cube.
On partition b/w cube A and cube C following error is coming:
Partition [sestc01as288.danfoss.net:1423 EssDRS EssDRS] is not valid [Target] - Partition definition is not valid: [Partition definition for slice [1] does not parse]
Please suggest some solution how to check.

Syntax error Creating Transparent Partition in MaxL

Hello,
I'm trying to create a simple transparent partition (no mapping needed, just using all the 3 dimensions and descendants in the source database to the target database. I'm getting a syntax error, I went through the MaxL naming conventions and also tried a couple of diffferent things but to no avail. Please help as to what the error might be:
My code is as below. The error I get is: Getting a syntax error near '@IDESCENDANTS("Accounts"), @IDESCENDANTS("Products"),@IDESCENDANTS("Market)
Code:
create transparent partition student8.coke area '@IDESCENDANTS("Accounts"), @IDESCENDANTS("Products"),@IDESCENDANTS("Market")' sourceArea to student8.cokepart at lab01 as essadmin identified by 'password' area '@IDESCENDANTS("Accounts"), @IDESCENDANTS(Products), @IDESCENDANTS("Market")' targetArea;

Nobody replied to this, but actually the error was the double quotes on Accounts, Products and Market.

ASO and BSO Transparent partition

Hi
I have couple of questions regarding transparent partition, please help me out,
1) I have two ASO cubes and one empty BSO cube, do I need to run security (apply filters) on both ASO and BSO cubes?
2) How should I give access to users? For example: what should I write as "..."identified by" ....
TO 'VZB_ISu'.'VB_IS' AT "localhost"
AS "....." IDENTIFIED BY "....."
AREA '"2006","2005",@IDESC("Month"),@IDESC("Scenario"),@IDESC("Measure_Type"),@IDESC("Measures"),@IDESC("Accounts"),@IDESC("RegionCompany"),@IDESC("Company"),@IDESC("RegionOrganization"),@IDESC("Organization"),@IDESC("Affiliate"),@IDESC("Product"),@IDESC("Ledger_Code"),@IDESC("Region"),@IDESC("Country")';
3) Are their specific ways to tune an empty BSO cube transparently linked to ASO cube? BSO cube has no data.
Thank you
Namita

Hi,
1) You only need to set security on the BSO db (I'm assuming the users will not be connecting directly to the ASO db). When you setup your partition you define what user will be used to login to the ASO database. When ever an end-user retrieves data over the partition it's the partition user that logs into the ASO database to retrieve the data. You only need to make sure that the user defined in the partition has sufficient rights to retrieve that data.
2) You can either use EAS to create the filter or MaxL...this is the example for create/replace filter: create filter sample.basic.filt1 read on 'Jan, sales', no_access on '@CHILDREN(Qtr2)';
3) Try an avoid too many dynamic calcs in the target. These will obviously affect the retrieval times.

Performance tips on transparent and replicated partitions?

I am quite new to this partitioning scene. Does anybody has tips on how to improve the performance and create the most feasible tranparent and replicated partitions? Thanks.

Our design is triangle shaped structure. There is a main application getting fed from two sub applications and these two sub applications are connected also by a transparent partition. One of the sub applications is the same as the main application. Same number of dimensions with the same dimensions. The second sub application is a smaller subset of the main application with less dimensions. All the transparent partitions defined as "(@IDESCENDENTS("Managerial Statement of Operations") @IDESCENDENTS("Income Statement Ratios") @IDESCENDENTS("Operating Ratios") @IDESCENDENTS("Statistics")@IDESCENDENTS("System Administration")) @IDESCENDENTS("Time") @IDESCENDENTS("Income Statement Type") @IDESCENDENTS("Funding Type") @IDESCENDENTS("Network Indicator") @IDESCENDENTS("Product") @IDESCENDENTS("Market Segment") @IDESCENDENTS("State") @IDESCENDENTS("Scenario") @IDESCENDENTS("Trading Partner") @IDESCENDENTS("Organization")" at the source and "(@IDESCENDENTS("Managerial Statement of Operations") @IDESCENDENTS("Income Statement Ratios") @IDESCENDENTS("Operating Ratios") @IDESCENDENTS("Statistics")@DESCENDENTS("System Admin - PL")) @IDESCENDENTS("Time") @IDESCENDENTS("Income Statement Type") @IDESCENDENTS("Funding Type") @IDESCENDENTS("Network Indicator") @IDESCENDENTS("Product") @IDESCENDENTS("Market Segment") @IDESCENDENTS("State") @IDESCENDENTS("Scenario") @IDESCENDENTS("Trading Partner") @IDESCENDENTS("Organization")" at the target. The dimensions are "Account", "Time", "Scenario", "Market Segment", "Income Statement Type", "Funding Type", "Product", "State", "Organization", "Trading Partner", and "Network Indicator". Thanks.

Difference between transparent and replicated partitions

whats the difference between transparent and replicated partitions in EAL. currently we have created essbase cube via transparent partition in eal. performance of obiee reports on essbase cube is very bad. now somebody suggested to create essbase cube via replicated partition in EAL. what difference would it make. one guy said replicated partition would make it more slow. i am confused. please explain.

Transparent Partition does not occupy or create extra memory Space in the Destination Application , it just shows the Data from Source to the Destination cube . This partition is completely dependent on Existence of Source Data . While , in replicated Partition you can use a copy of source data in the Destination cube.

Transparent Partition Mapping Error

I havd an ASO source cube and BSO target cube
Source Dimensions:-
Periods
Account
Company
CostCentre
Product
Target Dimensions
Periods
Account
FiscalYear
Scenario
Company
CostCentre
Product
Using MAXL I create a partition but I cannot get the mapped area to work correctly. the syntax I am using is :-
create transparent partition 'SOURCE'.'GrpSrc'
area '@DESCENDANTS("Periods"), @IDESCENDANTS("Account"),@IDESCENDANTS("Company"),@IDESCENDANTS("CostCentre"),@IDESCENDANTS("Product")' sourcearea
to 'TARGET'.'GrpTgt'
area '@LEVMBRS("Periods","Lev0,Periods"),@IDESCENDANTS("Account"),@IDESCENDANTS("Company"),@IDESCENDANTS("CostCentre"),@IDESCENDANTS("Product")' targetarea
mapped targetarea('"Actual"') to ('')
mapped targetarea('"CY"') to ('');
The partition is not being created correctly because the extra dimensions in the target cube [Scenario and Fiscal Year] are not mapped
Please let me know what I should be doing to get this to work!
Essbase 11.1.2.1
Many thanks

Hi ,
This error generally comes when there is an extra dimension in the target datasource.
Yes, you can create a transparent partition between databases having different numbers of dimensions. In your case, you have to create a mapping from 'void' to a member in your extra dimension (i.e. 'Actual') in the target. There is an example in the DBAG.
see the section on this page headed "Mapping Data Cubes with Extra Dimensions": http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/esb_dbag/dotprtbd.html.

Outline Synchronization in Transparent Partitioning

Hi,<BR><BR>Would it be possible to synchronize outlines in a transparent partition that uses different types of storage? I have a source db of ASO and target db of BSO. I tried GETPARTITIONOTLCHANGES using Esscmd, but didnt work since it requires both cubes of the same storage types. I also tried using 'refresh outline' from maxl, but it didnt seem to do any good. Anyone encountered this type of problem?<BR><BR>Gerd

Found out that this cant be done if the storage types between source and target are different.

Synchronisation of Transparent partitioning throught AAS

I am having problem synchronizing two databases with Transparent partitioning.
If I try to do it through MAXL script it works perfectly fine but when I try to do it manually using AAS (9.3.0) it throws an error
Error : Partition does not exist - 'can't be found in local partition definition file'
Any suggestions?

Hello Martin,
Thanks for the info. Now, I am able to understand...:)
You consider following and check if the error message is resolved:
1. If executing the MaxL script from client machine, add the Essbase Server IP addresses to the Hosts file of the Client machine
2. Edit the essbase.cfg file and add the following:
NODENAME
NO_HOSTNAME_LISTCONNECT TRUE
3. If using EAS console, and if Essbase server is NOT added explicitly with port number .i.e. HOSTNAME:PORT then please do so:
ServerName:PortNumber (for example Localhost:1423)
If using MaxL, connect to Essbase Server in the above format.
4. Try connecting to Essbase Server using IP Address.
If nothing above works, then you can suspect that the partition is corrupt. Then try the following:
1. Rename or delete the .ddb files from the source and target database directories.
2. Stop and Start the source and target databases.
Hope it helps...

P.S: If this is helpful, Please mark it :)

User View is not reflecting the source data - Transparent Partition

We have a transparent partition cubes. We recently added New fiscal year details to the cube (user view as well as source data cube). We loaded the data to the source data cube. From the user view, we tried to retrieve data, it shows up 0's. but the data is availble in the source data cube. Could anyone please provide the information what might be the issue?
Thanks!

Hi-
If u haven't add the new member in the partition area, then Madhvaneni's advice is the one u should do. Because, if u haven't add the member, the target can't read the source.
If u have already added the new member in the partition area, and still the data won't show up, sometimes it's worth to try re-save the partition, and see what's the outcome.

Using AGG/CALC DIM function in the BSO target cube of Transparent Partition

Hi,
Is it possible to use AGG("dimension") on a dimnesion in the BSO cube that is a target cube for a BSO-BSO Transparent Partition/
I have created the partition area with 3 dimensions, one being 'Source'. 90% of the source members are being refrenced from source to target via that transparent partition. But I still have the 10% Source members in the target cube that need to roll up to the 'Source"(along with the 90%) for correct aggregation.
When I try to use AGG("Source") in a FIX statement that's within the partition area, I get the following error:
Error: 1042013 Network error [10054]: Cannot Receive Data
Error: 1042012 Network error [10054]: Cannot Send Data
Can I not aggregate the dimension in the Target cube?
Thanks

Hi,
We have the same problem.
I try to create transparent pertition between BSO (as a source) and ASO (target) and have the same warning message.
Just to eliminate possible effect of outline complexity I created very simple DBs with the following outlines:
__For ASO:__
mes1
mes2
Measures
prd1
prd2
Products
Actual
Adjustment
Scenarios
__For BSO:__
mes1
mes2
Measures
prd1
prd2
Products
Adjustment
Scenarios
In addition to the message I have the following behavior - ASO has data in "Actual" scenario, BSO has data in "Adjustment" scenario. Before partition definition I can see the data in the right places, but when the partition created, Actual data disapeared from report of ASO. It is still in the database, and when the partition removed - appears again.
Any ideas?
Thank you in advance,
Alexey

Drill-through via Transparent Partition

Hi
I am using Essbase Server and EIS 11.1.1. I have a ASO target cube which points to different ASO source cubes partitioned on dates. Each source cube has defined a drill-through report and this drill-through reports work fine if I access them directly from Excel add-in. But when I access these source cubes via my target cube (transparent partition) drill-through reports don't work (no visual effect on intersection cells). When I double click on them I cannot see my drill-through reports. Could anyone tell me what I am doing wrong here please? According to documentation, I should be able to drill-through via tranparent partioned target cube.
Regards
Chandra

Thank you for the reply but Essbase Studio does NOT support drill-through from Recursive Hierarchy dimensions. That's why I had to go back to EIS.

Transparent Partition Between ASO & BSO

Hi,
I am trying to define a Transparent Partition between an ASO (Source) & a BSO (Target) cube.
My ASO cube has 16 dimensions, BSO has 12 dimensions. The matching 12 dimensions are identical.
The data from the source should be taken from all levels of the 12 matching dimensions and Highest level data of the non matching dimensions.
Is this doable?
Is there any special syntax in partitions definitions?
Appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ethan.

Glenn,
Thanks. It's working. I created the partition manually, kept void for all the 4 missing dimensions.
When I have to write the script, I am not sure how to specify that in the script
mapped targetAreaA ("Dim1") to (Void)
mapped targetAreaA ("Dim2") to (Void)
mapped targetAreaA ("Dim3") to (Void)
mapped targetAreaA ("Dim4") to (Void);
or
mapped targetAreaA ("Dim1", "Dim2", "Dim3", "Dim4") to (Void, Void, Void, Void)
Are these correct syntaxes?
Appreciate your thoughts.
Thanks,
Ethan.

Essbase Transparent partitions error

Please help

Hi-
It wouldn't be matter if members in current BSO cube partitioned to members existing in historical ASO cube. But if you want to retrieve new members that exist in BSO cube and don't exist in ASO historical cube, it won't show any value since it doesn't exist in the historical cube and of course the partition area from BSO to ASO can't be updated except when you want to map it to another member.

Will
