Migrate planning 11.1.1 to 11.1.2

hi all,
does anyone know how to migrate planning 11.1.1 to 11.1.2?
i try to migrate, but there was a message "the application version is invalid.Existing version is 11.1.1, Expected version 11.1.2.0".
is there any tips n tricks for this??
regards,
ccm

It's not supported by Oracle, but the migration code is still there - the MIGRATE button still appears if the VERSION field in HSPSYS_APPLICATIONS is below 11.1.2.
(Having said that, I'm still testing whether the resulting application is actually stable in 11.1.2.)I think there is a big confusion of what is supported and not, I have had no problems using the migrate to 11.1.2, all the migrate does is run SQL to update any tables that have changed between versions.

My 10.6 Upgrade and OD Migration plan

Hi, I wish to share my 10.6 upgrade/migration plan in order to get feedback/comments from people who may have insight/experience doing the same and thus be able to offer advice as to whether my plan is solid or if there's anything I should add/change and any potential pitfalls.
Background:
We have:
200 x clients
1 x OD/Mail/Firewall/PrimaryDNS/etc server - 10.5.8 (hereafter referred to as ODS1)
1 x File Server - 10.5.5 (hereafter referred to as FS1)
(current 80GB HDDs in these servers to be upgraded to 1TB)
Reason for upgrade is ODS1 causes all kinds of issues:
- OD seems to be corrupt (people sometimes can't log in, accounts can't be deleted in workgroup manager)
- Mail service only comes up sometimes at random intervals upon restart (i.e. sometimes takes half an hour, sometimes won't come up for a whole day or not at all.)
Unable to solve these issues and decided to upgrade this server to 10.6.7 in the hopes of solving problems. We will also move OD to a separate virtual machine in the process - theory being that if OD has problems we can restart the server without affecting Mail and vice versa.
Restrictions on upgrade:
ODS1 is an XServe with two network cards (external and internal interfaces for Firewall) and Mail Store & User Directories is on Fibre Channel attached XServe RAID which means:
- I don't want to buy another fibre channel card so Mail Service has to remain on this XServe unless I move the mail store
- FW preferably to stay on here because this XServe has 2 network interfaces.
Luckily, very few users use the servers on the weekend so I don't have to worry about taking servers down for the upgrade.
Plan:
1. Prepare our new 10.6.7 Open Directory Master. This will be a virtual machine running through Parallels Bare Metals on an XServe
Set hostname “ldap.ourcompany.com”.
Set static IP address
Install all the latest updates.
Set up as DNS master – import all entries, but change ldap.ourcompany.com to point to this machine.
Set up Open Directory Master with correct SearchBase, etc.
Disable any other services that we don’t need.
2. Export Users and Groups from ODS1 through Workgroup Manager
3. Import Users and Groups to new server through Workgroup Manager
3.5. Run script to set all passwords from our list (Yes I have a list - and I know this is not best practice)
4. Test: by binding a new computer to this server and logging in with a user account set up on this server.
5. Backup
Make a backup copy of the new OD Master virtual machine.
On ODS1 and FS1, export all settings from Server Admin onto a thumb drive
Make an archive of Open Directory onto a thumbdrive (Server Admin -> Open Dir -> Archive Tab)
Copy from ODS1 onto some external HDD: Mail store and home directories locted on Fibre Channel attached storage
Run mailbfr –b /Path/to/backup/volume –full
Clone ODS1 HDD onto 1TB HDD using a caddy
Clone FS1 HDD onto 1TB HDD using a caddy
Remove HDD’s in ODS1 and FS1 and replace with clones and blank 1TB HDDs.
Implement new OD Master
6. Update ldap.ourcompany.com DNS entry to point to new server.
7. On ODS1, change Open Directory Role to Replica.[2]
8. On FS1, reconfigure Open Directory Replica.
9. On ODS1, change DNS role to replica and point tonew OD/DNS Master[3]
10. On FS1, change DNS replica to point to new DNS
11. On FS1, change DHCP to supply new DNS serveraddresses.
12. Test:
DHCP supplied LDAP on new computer.
Mail
Logging into accounts from existing computers
AFP
13. Backup again (so if next step fails we have at least achieved setting up new OD server)
Clone FS1 and ODS1 to blank internal 1TB drives.
Swap HD and Backup drive names and change start-up disk in System Prefs to newly named HD disk on both FS1 and ODS1, and restart, effectively testing the clones.
14. Upgrade ODS1 to 10.6.7
15. Change ODS1 DNS role to replica and point to newOD Master so that it has a working DNS service during the upgrade process.
16. Upgrade ODS1 to 10.6.7 in-place with CD
17. Check Mail settings before starting it.
18. Test:
Mail
Logging into accounts
Firewall
DNS Replica
VPN
Our Company custom scripts previously handled by Lingon (Any alternative to Lingon in 10.6?)
iChat
iCal
Software Update
WebMail
19. Point new OD Master’s Software Update to upgraded ODS1
20. Go Home!
Any advice?

Ok modified new plan, changes include:
- FS1 gets upgraded to 10.6 as well
- no "backup again" done - this will never be a point we roll back seeing that 10.5 can't be replica of 10.6
- software update added
- clean installs rather than in-place upgrades so that we start afresh and hopefully not importing the many problems we were facing on 10.5
- other little changes
Everthing up to before the "Upgrade FS1" section is done in normal working hours while clients are using the servers and from then onwards, on a weekend.
Prepare our new 10.6 Open Directory Master virtualmachine
Set hostname to “ldap.ourcompany.com”.
Set static IP address 192.168.30.30
Install all the latest updates.
Set up as DNS master – import all entries, butchange ldap.ourcompany.com to point to this machine.
Set up Open Directory Master with correct SearchBase, etc.
Disable any other services that we don’t need.
Export Users and Groups from ODS1 through Workgroup Manager
Import Users and Groups to new server
Run script to set all passwords
Change Home Directories to “None” or if this fails, to a location on the local HDD. (We use mobile accounts - ideally we need managed local accounts, nothing gets synced to server, so hopefully server home folders are not necessary - in 10.5 it didn't seem to work without having a server home set with a directory full of empty folders.)
Change software update managed settings in Workgroup Manager to: http://ods1.ourcompany.com:8088/index-leopard-snowleopard.merged-1.sucatalog This will only work after ODS1's 10.6 upgrade is complete
Test: by binding a new computer to this server and logging in with a user account set up on this server.
Backup
Make a backup copy of the new OD Master virtualmachine.
On ODS1 and FS1, export all settings from ServerAdmin onto a thumb drive
Make an archive of Open Directory onto a thumbdrive (Server Admin -> Open Dir -> Archive Tab)
Document all settings on ODS1 and FS1 by takingscreen shots of each pane in Server Admin and RAID Admin for easy referencewhen later setting up the new 10.6 ODS1.
On FS1, document all file shares and permissions
Copy from ODS1: /Volumes/Xserve User RAID and/Volumes/Xserve_Mail_RAID onto external HDD.
Copy from ODS1: /usr/bin/cyrus/bin/ to thumbdrive (required for migrating mail later)
Run mailbfr –b /Path/to/backup/volume –full
Clone FS1 and ODS1 HD drives to the internal BUdrives.
Make FS1 file shares backup (on separate XRAID)
Upgrade FS1
Remove HDD’s in FS1 and replace with 3 blank 1TB HDDs.
Install 10.6 from DVD.
Install latest updates.
Configure as per previously documented screenshots, but with the following changes:
Make it a replica of the new OD Master instead of ODS1
Add a secondary DNS zone pointing to new DNS server
Configure its DHCP to provide new LDAP server
Set all correct file share permissions aspreviously documented.
Test:
Attempt to connect to every volume with various different users to test that correct permissions are being applied.
Turn many client computers on to test if correct DHCP settings are received.
Upgrade ODS1
Do a fresh install of 10.6
Set up all services using documented screenshots, but OD and DNS will be replica instead of Master.
Migrate Mail store by renaming mail folder onthe XRAID to oldmail, then issuing this command: sudo/usr/libexec/dovecot/migrate_mail_data.pl —moveMail 0 —cyrusBin "/Volumes/thumb_driveXXXX" --database "/Volumes/X-SERVE_Mail_RAID/oldmail/imap"--sourceSpool "/Volumes/X-SERVE_Mail_RAID/oldmail/spool/imap"--targetSpool "/Volumes/X-SERVE_Mail_RAID/mail/spool/imap/dovecot/mail"
Test:
afp://ods1.ourcompany.com./
Logging into accounts
Start up all computers in the office to makesure mail, managed prefs, DNS, DHCP, etc. work for all computers.

Migrate planning application without migrating Provisioning information

Hi,
Is it possible to migrate just Planning application and other Hyperion objects without provisioning information. which we can assign as per new requirement.
will it work or need to migrate provisioning information first then we can change later as per our requirement.
This time MSAD Provider should connect with different host.
Please advice.

I understand that planning application contain provisioning information of Planning application in shared services and should be migrated along with Planning.
My question was:
Is it possible to migrate planning application only and then i should able to either re provisioning everything from scratch for migrated planning as we had bad experience with existing provisioning.
though i have seen some option of update/delete in CSSImport (importexport.properties)
please advice.

How to migrate Planning from Production to Disaster-Recovery server?

We are using Planning 11.1.1.3 Oracle repository. Presently our DR Planning Application name is different than production's name, and the DR's Windows server names are different from Production's. Otherwise, all other configuration the same.
How do we migrate Planning from Production to Disaster-Recovery server? We stopped Planning on DR server. Then we exported production planning Oracle repository and imported it to DR Planning. We restarted DR's Planning. DR planning seems to be running fine, but I am afraid to click "Refresh Planning" on DR Planning - it might update Production server. So how can I be sure DR and Production planning are disconnected ?
Is there anything we need to do? This method seems to be faster than migrating with LCM.
Edited by: Essbase Fan on Oct 18, 2010 10:11 AM

You are definitely go about it the correct way, if you are migrating the whole planning application I have to agree it is a safer and quicker route.
The connection information to essbase is stored in the planning system database/schema so as long as you have not migrated that then you should be good to refresh.
To put your mind at rest, log into the planning application and edit the datasource associated with the application then you will see where the essbase server is it is going to refresh.

Migrating planning artifacts from 11.1.3.3 to 11.1.2.2.

Hi,
I am migration planning application from 11.1.3.3 to 11.1.2.2 . I am trying to use LCM to migrate the artifact using shared service but while importing all the components are grayed out.
Can you please let me know how to migrate artifacts from 11.1.3.3 to 11.1.2.2.
Thanks.

LCM migrations are not actually supported between different versions, though saying that is it usually possible to get most artifacts migrated, you may need to edit some of the xmls.
If you perform an export on the target you get an idea of the format that is required for the import to work.

Migration cockpit : transport of settings (migration plan / package...)

We are running New Ledger migration with scenario 6 (to add doc. splitting functionality). We have created in the Dev System with transaction CNV_MBT_NGLM (Migration cockpit) following settings like the creation of a project, then assigned a package and later on the creation of a migration plan.
It looks like we have to recreate in Quality and Production the migration project and then the assignment of a package... and ONLY the migration plan can be transported ? (thanks to the activity called "Create Transport for Migration Plan Customizing" if the activity "Customizing of Package via Transport Request " has been done before ?
1. Could anyone please confirm this understanding ?
2. Furthermore, we'd like to test migration and document splitting validation in different clients in Dev and in Quality... should we recreate migration project and assignment of a package & migration in all the clients ?
Many thanks for any feedback.

Marc -
This question is a slight variation to the question posed by Maninder.
Client plans on upgrading the BW instance to "NW04s/SEM 6.0" and also merge an old SEM instance (BW 3.1 SEM 3.5)to the upgraded BW instance. They plan on using the SEM 6.0 BPS instead of the new NW04s IP functionality.
The merging of instances requires migration of configuration / data.
What are the major cautions you advise?
Also, as requested by Maninder any SAP documents that shed light on issues that one needs to consider while migrating BPS data would be of great help!!

Anil

Upgrade/Migrate Planning application from 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3

I have installed 11.1.2.3 on Window 2008 R2 servers. Our old environment is on 11.1.1.1 is still up and running on different server(windows 2003). I have successfully completed the following:
1.     All Hyperion products (HSS,BIPLUS,CALC MGR,EPMA,Planning,FDME installed successfully and everything working fine.
2.     I am able migrate the all FR reports successfully(Export/Import method) and Yet to test the reports after application migration.
3.     I created Planning apps in the new system which is similar to old application , I can open the Planning Application Administrator via WorkSpace URL.
My question :1) Can i migrate Planning repository DB schema from SQL server 2005 to New application schema on SQL server 2008.
                            (There is any update required before and all the repository table of 11.1.2.3 similar to 11.1.1.1
                   2) How can i migrate the Business rules to Calc manager(.i.e 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3)
                   3)How can i migrate the FDM application (.i.e 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3)
Please let me know if you need any further information.

First of all 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3 direct migration is not supported so if you have issue upgrading planning then unfortunately that may be the reason.
SQL Server 2005 to 2008 should be ok but if you are concerned then upgrade the sql server 2005 version to 11.1.2.3 then use LCM to change database versions.
Business Rules read the following support doc - "Hyperion Business Rules (HBR) to Calculation Manager Migration White Paper (Doc ID 1528121.1)"
FDM - Upgrade utility.

CopyApp utility vs Migration-Planning and objects

Hi,
Moving from 9.3.1. to 9.3.1.x.
If we have similar DB on different server and want to move planning application from one server to another with all relevant objects (like Business rule, Calc, Substitution variable, Rule file, cache settings etc.
Which is better choice?
How to use copyapp utility for moving planning application and objects.

Edited by: Kumar 1 on Oct 22, 2010 4:36 AM

In my opinion I don't like the CopyApp utility and it has been dropped anyway in version 11, some people have had success with it so it is just my opinion but you may have a good experience with it.
You should give it a trial and see if it is good for you, It doesn't copy business rules
Also are you happy with this post? :- migrate planning application without migrating Provisioning information

How to migrating planning applications version 9.2.0 to 11.1.1.3 directly

Hi All
Please help.
Can be migrated Planning applications from version 9.2.0 to version 11.1.1.3 directly?
There is documentation that explains the process?
Attentive to your comments
Regards
Pedro
Edited by: user13040806 on 06-feb-2013 5:48

Hi Pedro,
The quick way, assuming you are using Classic Planning Administration in 11.1.1.3 is to export the application schema and Essbase data & objects from the 9.2.0 environment and import into the new environment.
Thanks,
Andy

CF8 Enterprise migration to another hosting provider. Help with migration plan (license) needed

Hi there!
We are running a CF8 Enterpsise on an older root Server (virtuozzo VM) and we need to switch to another provider (vmWare VM).
We will probably need more then one month for the migration and I need to come up with a migration plan that doesn't involve rendering the service unavailable.
I've tried to contact Adobe hotline, but the people there knew nothing about licensing, the other number I got from them kicks me after 20 minutes on hold... so I was hoping to be able to find answers here.
I understand CF Enterprise is licensed for 2 CPUs, for unlimited number of virtual machines, so the other server wouldn't qualify to run on the same license key because it's different 2 CPUs. If I could migrate everything within a month then I could use the 30 day demo license, but I will need more then 30 days.
So what are my options? Even if I wanted to buy CF8 Standard to cover the second server while migrating (am not really willing to pay $$$ just to cover few weeks of migration), I'm not sure I'd be able to find a place to buy it. CF9 or CF10 is not an option because we'd need to rewrite the code. What happenes if we do use same license key for few days on both servers - does it stop working? Any hope of me contacting Adobe and getting some kind of "extension" of the 30 day demo license so we can complete the migration?
Any ideas what I can to?
TIA

When you install WS2012R2 on KMS02, you can add the VA role (or you can add it after initial Windows installation), this gives you KMShost and also VAMT.
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-au/library/dn613834.aspx
http://blogs.technet.com/b/askcore/archive/2013/03/14/installing-volume-activation-services-role-in-windows-server-2012-to-setup-a-kms-host.aspx
(this article describes WS2012, not WS2012R2, but it's the same procedure. Note that a Windows Server 2012 R2 CSVLK can activate Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows 8, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1
and Windows Server 2012 R2 KMS clients.)
To do this, you will need the KMShost product key (CSVLK) for WS2012R2. You can't use an older version product key for this.
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/22510.volume-activation-kms-mak-adba-avma.aspx
So, you would setup KMS02 with the KMShost feature for Windows, then add the Office2010 KMShost license pack + Office2010 KMShost key, then add the Office2013 KMShost license pack + Office2013 KMShost key. (the Office license pack downloads are linked
in the above wiki)
By default, KMS02 will attempt to self-publish into your DNS (so that your KMSclients can discover it and begin activating with it).
If existing KMSclients have previously discovered KMS01, those existing KMSclients will continue to contact KMS01 (because clients will cache the KMS they last discovered and used).
You may wish to export the data from KMS01/VAMT2.0 as a file, then, import to KMS02/VAMT3.1:

Issue with LCM while migrating planning application in the cluster Env.

Hi,
Having issues with LCM while migrating the planning application in the cluster Env. In LCM we get below error and the application is up and running. Please let me know if anyone else has faced the same issue before in cluster environment. We have done migration using LCM on the single server and it works fine. It just that the cluster environment is an issue.
Error on Shared Service screen:
Post execution failed for - WebPlugin.importArtifacts.doImport. Unable to connect to "ApplicationName", ensure that the application is up and running.

Hi,
First of all, if your environment for source and target are same then you will have all the users and groups in shared services, in that case you just have to provision the users for this new application so that your security will get migrated when you migrate the from the source application. If the environs are different, then you have to migrate the users and groups first and provision them before importing the security using LCM.
Coming back to the process of importing the artifacts in the target application using LCM, you have to place the migrated file in the @admin native directory in Oracle/Middleware/epmsystem1.
Open shared services console->File system and you will see the your file name under that.
Select the file and you will see all your exported artifacts. Select all if you want to do complete migration to target.
Follow the steps, select the target application to which you want to migrate and execute migration.
Open the application and you will see all your artifacts migrated to the target.
If you face any error during migration it will be seen in the migration report..
Thanks,
Sourabh

MobileMe and apple ID migration plan and online file / data storage

Ok, I've not been brave enough to get started yet but I have a plan and a question to put to those who have moved from MobileMe to iCloud.
I have a mobile me account and a separate apple id. I have used the apple id for iTunes and app store purchases both on ios Devices and mac computers.
I use mobile me for syncing iCal, keychain, bookmarks, contacts etc and for iDisk which is where I keep my main Documents folders/files so that I can access them and work on them from anywhere already.
I visited the Genius bar at my local apple store today and they advised me to use the apple id for the iCloud update not MobileMe as this would enable the software to auto update etc across all my devices whereas the MobileMe upgrade to iCloud wouldn't.
So, my plan is ....
1) Offline back ups of everything first!
2) turn off mobile me syncing on all devices
3) upgrade to iCloud using apple id and create new me.com account in the process
4) repopulate new iCloud account with all bookmarks, keychains, contacts, iCal etc from desktop running lion os.
5) switch on iCloud syncing on other devices using new account
Does this make any sense?
The other question I had relates to all the .pdf, .ppt, .doc, .xl, .jpg files I have backed up online on my iDisk. Can I copy these into my 5gb iCloud account and uses the same file directory etc to access these files from all my devices via iCloud?
Or will I need dropbox to do this?

I'm no expert. I found your question whilst looking for clues on how best to start migrating from separate apple-id (for iTunes and app store purchases) and mobile me (for data sync) accounts.
If you intend to use iTunes in the cloud and have app store software installed on your pc then I have been told today in apple store that the auto software updates will only work if you upgrade that apple id to iCloud and keep that.
What I am thinking of doing is then using my desktop to repopulate all my old mobile me data into this new account and new mobile me email. This way I could always go back to the old MobileMe account (until June 2012) if anything goes wrong. I can forward the old mobile me email to the new a/c too

Unable to migrate Planning Securities filter form Prod to Qa

Hi,
We have migrated Sys9 planning application from prod env to Qa but security migration dint happend. Each time we need to login Oracle repository and do a export and import.
Please let us know the easy way to perform migraiton.
plz temme

If the users already exist in the Qa environment then you can use the updateusers.cmd utility, this will try and update the native sid values for users and groups in the planning repository to match shared services.

Migration plan from 2007 iMac to MacBook Air

I'm looking to migrate from a 2007 iMac to a 2013 MacBook Air and have a recent wireless AC TimeCapsule that's presently backing up both Macs wirelessly. I also have an older wireless N TimeCapsule that's in the closet and a new external storage drive. My iMac has something like 400 GB of stuff on it and the new Air has a 128 SSD.
It's my understanding that you can't run two TimeCapsules at once, so my plan was to turn off the newer TimeCapsule, then plug in the old TC with a cable and do a final backup before I migrate. I'll put the old TC back in the closet, just in case I ever want to pull things out from around the date of migration. I'll then use migration assistant to transfer from the iMac to the new external HD that will be connected to the Air.
I haven't done any of this yet, so there's no actual problem, I just wanted to see if there were any problems with what I planned to do.

How do I go about using migration assistant to transfer my files from an iMac to an external, connected by USB, hard drive
This willl make a cloned copy of your iMac system disk to the external HD.
Use Disk Utility to format the external HD Mac OS Extended (journaled).
Boot from the Recovery Partition (Boot Command-R).
Disk Utility > Restore
> Source: Your iMac system disk.
> Destiation: The external HD.
> Restore
Then when you use Migration Assistant on the MBA, point it to the external HD.
