Maxl error rename cube

Hi all,
I am using this script to kill and disable the connection before renaming the cube ,
If any one is using that cube or doing reports in that cube , I want to kill and diconnect connectionn that session before renaming but its throwing errror
It is locked by the user
MAXL:
alter system kill request on application 'ANAY1';
alter system logout session on application 'ANAY1';
drop lock on application 'ANALYAY1';
alter application 'ANAY1' disable connects;
alter application 'ANAY11' rename to 'ay2';
alter application 'ANAY1' enable connects;
so how can i disconnect the users who is working on that cube to excute this statement successfully any other maxl statement
Your help would be appriciated
Thanks

Yes, you need to use Force option to force logout users on application.
Also it is better to first disable connects and then logout user so that no new users will login after logging out existing sessions.
so your MAXL will be
alter application 'ANAY1' disable connects;
alter system kill request on application 'ANAY1';
alter system logout session on application 'ANAY1' force;
drop lock on application 'ANALYAY1';
alter application 'ANAY11' rename to 'ay2';
alter application 'ANAY1' enable connects;
Also we might need to run the logut session command more than once, to be able to logout all users on application.

MaxL error 1241114 - There were errors, look in...

I am running the following MaxL in a batch script on one of our Essbase cubes, which passes the MaxL to ESSMSH.
MaxL:
login admin identified by ******* on *******;
iferror "errorhandler";
spool stdout on to "\\*******\\*******\\Logs\\*******BefLoad.log";
iferror "errorhandler";
spool stderr on to "\\*******\\*******\\Logs\\*******BefLoad.err";
iferror "errorhandler";
set timestamp on;
execute calculation "'FIX(\"*******\",@ICHILDREN(\"*******\")) CLEARDATA \"*******\"; ENDFIX'" on *******.*******;
iferror "errorhandler";
import database *******.******* dimensions from data_file "\\\\*******\\FDMDATA\\*******\\Outbox\\*******.Dat" using server rules_file "L_Data" preserve input data on error append to "\\\\*******\\*******\\Logs\\*******BefLoad.err";
iferror "errorhandler";
logout;
exit 0;
define label "errorhandler";
exit 10;
However, every time the MaxL executes, I have the following single line generated in the "\\*******\*******\Logs\*******BefLoad.err" file:
WARNING - 1241114 - There were errors, look in \\*******\*******\Logs\*******BefLoad.err.
This error is actually pointing to itself (the .err file), however this is the only line with no further information, and is generated every time the batch script is run, even though the build appears to have worked fine. I have double-checked and there are no errors (or even warnings) in the Essbase application log to suggest anything has gone wrong!
Does anyone please have a suggestion as to why it is being generated? Can we just ignore this error? I have read the following, which points out that data load errors will not be trapped by the MaxL "iferror" statement. However, it would be useful to know why this error is occurring and specifically what is going wrong.
MaxL Error Codes

Hi James -
Your dataload errors are getting spooled to the same file as Essbase is trying to spool the message saying that there were dataload errors. I wouldn't count on that working the way you expect it to, and it's not an approach I have ever used - I'd think keeping the stderr spool separate (i.e. separate files) from the dataload errors makes sense.
My bet is that if you point the two error streams to different files you'll see that there are in fact load errors, they're just getting messed up by the fact that stderr and dataload errors are pointing at the same file.
BTW, I appreciate that you're anonymizing for client confidentiality (amazing how many folks post info that obviously identifies their company and give out server / user names...), but any chance you could use e.g. 'appname', 'dbname' etc rather than *******? Asterisks make my eyes hurt, but more importantly they make the different tokens impossible to distinguish. Cheers!

Error while cube deployment in Essbase Studio

Hi All,
I created the hierarchies,however when I am facing below error during cube dployement.
Member load for dimension H0-Releases started at: Mon Apr 18 15:21:25 GMT+05:30 2011. Member load elapsed time: 3 Seconds.

Can someone help me out to resolve this issue
Thanks,

Hi KosuruS,
Thanks for your help. But,
1> I have duplicate member names(as shared hierarchy)..but not with delayed key binding.
2> I don't have any user defined member with member formula.
I have my Measure hierarchy which have user defined member other than measure all hierarchies are coming from views.
Even it shows error which is a staight hierarchy like :

MAXL error handling

MaxL error tracking II

I have a simpler question about tracking errors from a Maxl script. I run a Unix script that calls Maxl to back up the Essbase applications. I just want to trap the return code and send a email if there were any errors from the Maxl script. I'm using the follow code to trap any errors from the Unix commands. This is working for the Unix commands but does not reccognize errors from the Maxl script. Is there a way I can set the return code in the maxl script to non zero when an error occurs. Currently the return code is zero after returning from Maxl when an error occurs.
error_message()
mailx -s "Essbase backup error" email@... < /opt/BackupError.txt
trap 'error_message' ERR
set -e
cd /opt/hyperion/HYP_BACKUP/scripts
/opt/hyperion/AnalyticServices/bin/essmsh < /opt/staff/MaxlScript.msh > /opt/staff/Maxl.log 2>$1
exit
Thanks,
Tom

I'm no *nix jockey, so you're going to hear this from a Windows perspective.
In Windows, %ERRORLEVEL% will return the error code, sometimes. See my comments in this thread: MaxL error tracking
A more robust approach would be spool errors to STDERR, and then test to see if that file exists, and if so, what's inside.
^^^Probably not what you wanted to hear.

Just an add on that writing a routine that interrogated the file shouldn't really be that big of a deal. Once you code your own way on this you can pass whatever value you want on to the calling code.

Error Renaming Record

Hi Experts,
I am not able to update the validation or assignment Expressions from DM. There is always showing a message like:
Error Renaming Record
Field not found <0xFFAA1000>
version 7.1 (7.01.04.139)
when I tried to save them. Actually no changes can be made in this situation.
Could any of you advise what does this message mean ? How should I do with it to be able to save the updated Expressions ?
Thanks very much in advance
Regards,
Wei Dona

Hi Wei,
Please refer SAP NOTE: 1385073
How should I do with it to be able to save the updated Expressions ? Please refer SAP Note 1385073, Navigate to General->
1. A code field was added for Validations and Assignments. All repositories must undergo verify/repair before loading for
the first time in MDM 7.1 SP04 so that the added codes for Validations and Assignments are implemented.
2. Validations and assignments from previous versions that contain lookup values will need
modifying before the repository schema can be transported as the lookup values in
expressions will now internally include the lookup table ID in addition to the value itself.
This change was made to ensure that expressions with lookup values are transported correctly.
In order to modify these expressions you will need to load the repository and delete all
the referenced lookup values from each expression and then add them back into the
expressions.
If you try to transport the repository schema before modifying the expressions, you will receive a transport error and a
message will be generated in the MDS.log stating the assignments or validations that need to be updated.
Hope it helps..

Mandeep Saini

Error in Cubes

Hi Gurus,
Can anyone explain me, how can I solve the issues like Number range error in Cubes and Master data. SID related problems. Using RSRV
Thanks,
ND

Hi,
I think, there is nothing to do with RSRV, if the problem is to increase the number range for ur info object, u can do it in this way:
go to TC SE37,
give the Functional Module RSD_CUBE_GET (gives info. abt ur cube)
enter ur info cube name and execute
Double click on E_T_DIME (gives information regarding dimensions of ur info cube)
Identify the relevant number range object (relevant to ur info object) and copy that
go to SNRO and paste the no.range object and click on change button, here u can increase the no. range object.
I think this is wat u r expecting
assign points if useful

Maxl Error during data load - file size limit?

Does anyone know if there is a file size limit while importingdata into an ASO cube via Maxl. I have tried to execute: Import Database TST_ASO.J_ASO_DB datausing server test data file '/XX/xXX/XXX.txt'using server rules_file '/XXX/XXX/XXX.rul'to load_buffer with buffer_id 1on error write to '/XXX.log'; It errors out after about 10 minutes and gives "unexpectedEssbase error 1130610' The file is about 1.5 gigs of data. The filelocation is right. I have tried the same code with a smaller fileand it works. Do I need to increase my cache or anything? I alsogot "DATAERRORLIMIT' reached and I can not find the log filefor this...? Thanks!

Have you looked in the data error log to see what kind of errors you are getting. The odds are high that you are trying to load data into calculated memebers (or upper level memebers) resulting in errors. It is most likely the former. you specify the error file with the on error write to '/XXX.log'; statement. Have you looked for this file to find why you are getting errors? Do yourself a favor, load the smaller file and look for the error file to see what kind of an error you are getting. It is possible that you error file is larger than your load file, since multiple errors on a single load item may result in a restatement of the entire load line for each error. This is a starting point for your exploration into the problem. DATAERRORLIMIT is set at the config file, default at 1000, max at 65000. NOMSGLOGGINGONDATAERRORLIMIT if set to true, just stops logging and continues the load when the data error limit is reached. I'd advise using this only in atest environement since it doesn't solve the initial problem of data errors. Probably what you'll have to do is ignore some of the columns in the data load that load into calculated fields. If you have some upper level memebers, you could put them in skip loading condition. let us know what works for you.

How to resolve data request error in cube load

I apologize in advance if this is too much detail, but here goes...
We are on BW 3.5 and have only one cube active (0SD_C03). This cube contains five data targets. One of these targets had an update request fail due to an error in the transfer rule.
Basically, I have a custom characteristic which is populated by parsing out the Product Hierarchy field from R/3. The BW custom characteristic is a 5-character Alpha field. Problem is that in this case, the format of the code is not five characters; instead, it is a blank and then four digits. So instead of being '8613A' it is ' 8613', so the transfer rule terminates with the error 'InfoObject /BIC/ZPRDCODE does not contain alpha-conforming value'.
I recall being told by consultants to always "fix the data in the source system" but in this case, the data isn't wrong per se.
So I guess I have two questions:
1) Can I manually edit the data in the PSA to "correct" the product line field to be a conforming value? i.e. I would change it from ' 8613' to '8613x'. The help says something about deleting the request in order to maintain data in the PSA, but I'm not clear on how to do this. And once I have edited the data, how do I "release" all the subsequent deltas so they are available for reporting?
2) Can I change my transfer rules such that these errors don't occur in the future?
Again, sorry for all the detail, but I'm fairly desperate.
Thanks in advance,
Michele

You can manuallly edit the data in PSA .But to do this you have to delete the request from the Data target(s).Then edit the data in PSA. And then schedule the request from PSA tree.
2) Can I change my transfer rules such that these errors don't occur in the future?
I hope, you can . select tick mark for 'Conversion' column in transfer rule of this object .

Error Renaming/Deleting a folder!

try {
boolean result = false;
Folder folderToBeRenamed = getFolder(oldName);
if (folderToBeRenamed.exists()) {
if (folderToBeRenamed.isOpen())

result = folderToBeRenamed.renameTo(f1);
if (!result)
EL.writeError("UserStore: renameFolder: Error while renaming folder!");
else
EL.writeError("UserStore: renameFolder: Folder does not exists!");
if (result)
updateFolderNames();
return(result);
catch (Exception ex) {
EL.writeError("UserStore: deleteFolder: "+ex.getMessage());
return(false);
public boolean deleteFolder(String folderName) {

Error in Cube Deployment from Essbase Studio

Hi All,
I am very new to ESSBAE Studio. I build up a minischema, dimension element(drag and drop from minischema), hierarchy(using dimension element) , Cube Schema and Meta model.
Now when I'm going to deploy the model to Essbase Console It throws error :

Member load for dimension BU started at: 29-Nov-2012 12:52:32 o'clock GMT. Member load elapsed time: 1 Second.
No mapping found for class : \'test'\'Dimension Element_MS'\'BU_V'\'ESS_PARENT'.
Any help on this please.
Thanks in advance.

Error processing cube - requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open

Hi,
We have recently moved our production servers and since the move have been experiencing an intermittent (but frequent) error when processing our OLAP cube.
The error messages presented are:
"Error: The following error occurred during a file operation: The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open"
"Error: Errors in the OLAP storage engine: An error occurred while processing index for the <Partition Name> partition of the <Measure Group Name> measure group of the <Cube Name> cube from the <Database Name> database"
I assume the second message is a consequence of the first error. The partitions and measure groups seem to vary each time the process is run.
It appears from similar threads that this is usually caused by backups or anti-virus applications locking the files that Analysis Services is using the process the cube. I have ensured that there are no backups running at the time of processing and
I have disabled anti-virus programs without success.
I have also created a new version of the cube (using the deployment wizard) which deployed without error but then encountered the same error when processing for a second time. There was nothing (client application wise) using this cube when it failed
to process.
As I mentioned earlier, this problem is intermittent. Sometimes the cube will successfully process but usually it fails to process.
We have not encountered this error in our previous production environment or in any of our development environments.
Has anyone encountered this problem before? Any suggestions on possible solutions?
Thanks
Rich

Hi jonesri,
I think you can try to use SSAS Dynamic Management View to monitor SSAS instance, such as existing connections and sessions. For example, please run the following MDX query:
SELECT[SESSION_COMMAND_COUNT],
[SESSION_CONNECTION_ID],
[SESSION_CPU_TIME_MS],
[SESSION_CURRENT_DATABASE],
[SESSION_ELAPSED_TIME_MS],
[SESSION_ID],
[SESSION_IDLE_TIME_MS],
[SESSION_LAST_COMMAND],
[SESSION_LAST_COMMAND_CPU_TIME_MS],
[SESSION_LAST_COMMAND_ELAPSED_TIME_MS],

Maxl - Error while building dimension

Hi,
I am using below syntax in Maxl for building dimension. I am getting error. Could someone help me with this. I am pulling the load rule using SQL
import database 'Application Name'.'Database Name' dimensions connect as 'User Name' identified by 'password' using rules_file 'Buildfilename' on error write to 'D:\Error.txt';
Thanks

Try this
import database 'Application Name'.'Database Name' dimensions connect as 'User Name' identified by 'password' using SERVER rules_file 'Buildfilename' on error write to 'D:\Error.txt';

Maxl Error

I am trying to load data from RDBMS using maxl script. I am using this script
import database Rollout.Rollout data
connect as Suman identified by kolkata@1
using server rules_file 'Rul_DB.rul'
on error write to 'C:\Hyperion\AnalyticServices\app\Rollout\Rollout\ErrorLog_RDBMS.txt';
I am getting this error:
syntax error near ['@']
In password i have the '@' symbol. I am getting no other error. Please help me to fix this issue.
Regards,
Suman

I'd try ruling out the password first then. Have you tried putting it in quotes? Another thing you could try is changing the password temporarily if that is possible.

MAXL error logging

Hi Guys,
I have a script to import a number of dimensions, this was previously done with an Esscmd script but is now in a MAXL script. Is it possible to write to an error log for each dimensionn I dont seem to be able to get the syntax correct;
import database Appname.DBname dimensions
connect as 'user' identified by 'password' using server rules_file 'Products' preserve all data on error append to '\\\server\\share\Products.err',
connect as 'user' identified by 'password' using server rules_file 'Customer' preserve all data on error append to '\\\server\\share\product.err',
and so on, this will error at the first comma at the end of line 3, if I replace the comma with semi colon the first statement is executed ok but not the second.
All help appreciated
Ed

What happened is that you used the error file after each transaction, you should add the error file after your last transaction or build. Or if you want to have separate error files you have to have separate statements for each dimension build that starts with 'importdatabase Appname.DBname dimensions'.
here's a sample of a single statement:
import database sample.basic dimensions
from server text data_file 'genref' using server rules_file 'genref' suppress verification,
from server text data_file 'level' using server rules_file 'level' suppress verification,
from server text data_file 'time' using server rules_file 'time'
preserve input data on error append to 'C:\Hyperion\EAS\eas\client\dataload.err';
