Migrating application from Development to Production

Good day all,
Our development phase came to an end and now we need to "deploy" our application on the production server (with it's own OID). Note that we're on release 10.1.2.
In my mind we need to do the following:
- Export users/groups using the OID utilities.
- Export database objects schema containing tables, procedures, functions... by creating a dump.
- Export Page groups, db providers using transport sets.
Just to confirm, is that what we need to do? Can anyone give me some details (especially on 1 and 2)?
Thanks is advance!
Jaco

These are the steps in general for performing the deployment.
For details on OID utilities, see
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B14099_01/manage.1012/b14082/tools.htm#i1041008
In particular you would use ldapsearch (and outputting the result to a file) or ldifwrite (to directly write to the file) and bulkload (to load the data output from the development oid to production oid) utilities in particular to achieve the migration.
For schema migration of database schema - make sure that the schema components (tables, triggers, other objects) are exported and imported and there are no invalid objects that the database provider depends on before you start the next phase of migration (of portal content).

Problems migrating application from development server to production server

Well, we succesfully migrated shared library, application settings and BRs, BUT we couldnt migrate permissions and more than half of total forms, possibly because of lack of permissions, could you please point me to the direction of some manual about migrating, or just share an advice.
Thanks in advance!

Version - 11.1.2.0.83
We did migration by LCM using this http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/hyp/PLN11.1.2_LCM/index.html guide, Importing Planning Applications from the File System into the Destination Environment part

How to migrate reports from Development QA Production environment

Hello,
we have 3 Oracle Discoverer 10.1.2.3 environments and I would like to know what is the correct way to migrate reports from DEV to QA and to PROD.
I'm researching about this by a couple of days and didn't find anything handy.
The most likely way that I found was to export the entire EUL from one environment to another with the eulapi with a command line like that:
exporting:
eulapi -connect DEVUSER/pass@orcl -eul DEVUSER -export exp_all.eex -all
importing using [ -import_rename_mode refresh ]:
eulapi -connect QA_USER/pass@orcl -eul QA_USER -import exp_all.eex -identifier -import_rename_mode refresh -log imp.log
That would work.
However if the developer delete some object from the DEV environment and then import in the QA environment the deleted object won't be deleted from the QA environment and after some time the QA and PROD environment would be a mess.
Another way that I figured out was to drop the eul from the PROD environment and then import all over. That would solve the problem but It has a lot of risks.
Thanks in Advance,
Jonas Zanon

Hi,
I think the best approach is to export the EUL components (e.g. business areas, folders, hierarchies, workbooks etc) separately from your development environment and hold these in a change management system. You can then import the components into test and prod and know which version of each component you have.
Often when you make a change you will have to export/import several components. For example, if you add a folder you will need to export the folder, any business areas that hold the folder and if the folder is joined to any detail folders then these as well.
We don't have scripts to delete components from production. Very rarely do you need to delete anything from production and generally it is not a good idea because reports will stop working because the references in the reports are missing.

Moving Planning application from development to production

Hello All,
Pretty sure this has been answered heaps of times but here goes...
I have dev and prod enviroments of planning and essbase - version 9.3.1
Dev and Prod have own shared services install and also own SQL Servers
EPMA is used in both environments.
I have a planning application in dev with forms, task lists, business rules etc and access assigments.
* What would be the best method to move the application from dev to prod?
* How could I refresh changes I make in dev to prod server eg. changes in EPMA - add new members, changes to forms and business rules?
Appreciate your advice.
Regards
Dinesh

Hi,
Try with this post to start with - Migration of Hyperion Planning Application
Version 9.3.1 EPMA migration on different shared services you would have to use the EPMA file generator to export to ads, then import the ads in the targe env.
Business rules export to XML through EAS, import on target (may have to update the XML because server names will be hardcoded)
Cheers

Ora -20001 When moving application from development to production

Hi,
I am currently trying to get this application to successfully to update but i am receiving the below error message.
The action I am performing is trying to update a record via a save button.
This issues an SQL_UPDATE to Automatic row processing.
ORA-20001: Error in DML: p_rowid=5718074, p_alt_rowid=PERSONAL_ID, p_rowid2=, p_alt_rowid2=. ORA-20001: Current version of data in database has changed since user initiated update process. current checksum = "F6632C5E819349C1307E25A54BBD2F93" application checksum = "0"
This is not happening on the development application or when I access the application via the admin login. It is only when I use the following url:
http://<server>:<port>/pls/htlmdb/f?p=101 I get the error.
Both versions of APEX are 2.2.1.00.04 and using IE 6.0
I have checked various entries in the forum but they do not fully meet the scenario I am getting,
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Many thanks

ERROR WHILE MIGRATING SSIS PACKAGE FROM DEVELOPMENT TO PRODUCTION IN EXECUTION

HI,
I have a problem while executing the package after migrating from DEVELOPMENT to PRODUCTION.

Can anyone help for this error.
Many thanx in Advance

Hi Babloo,
According to the error message, the package may have failed are as follows:
The user account that is used to run the package under SQL Server Agent in PRODUCTION server differs from the original package author.
The user account does not have the required permissions to make connections or to access resources outside the SSIS package.
The package may not run in the following scenarios:
The current user cannot decrypt secrets from the package. This scenario can occur if the current account or the execution account differs from the original package author, and the package's ProtectionLevel property setting does not let the current user
decrypt secrets in the package. In this scenario, we can change the SSIS Package ProtectionLevel property to EncryptSensitiveWithPassword, then modify the SQL Server Agent job step command line to include this password.
File access fails because the current user does not have the required permissions to write to the file share that the connection manager accesses. In this scenario, we can create a SQL Server Agent proxy account. This proxy account must use a credential
that lets SQL Server Agent run the job as the account that created the package or as an account that has the required permissions.

SSIS package does not run when called from a SQL Server Agent job step

OWB propagation from development to production environment

Our department is in need to implement overall security around our production data warehouse.
One issue that seems to bother our management is having only one OWB Designer where developers would have to be responsible enough to use snapshots and export mappings to mdl files. Management would like to have development and production OWB Designer Repository where production designer would always be in sync with what is deployed in prd database. Also prd OWB Designer Repository would be like a source safe so we have to always get a mapping from prd designer move it dev designer and when done propagate changes back to prd designer and then deploy to prd database.
Would this be a good approach?
Any input on how to handle propagation from development to production environment, and if you are aware of "best practices" when it comes to OWB environment is appreciated.
Best Regards,
Vlasta

Hi,
Copy whole catalog and rpd from dev to prob.
If you want to copy specific report go to OracleBIData\web\catalog\samplesales\root\shared\sample+sales(group folder name)
You can copy reports under folders and dashboards in _portal in Sample sales group folder...both file and .atr file.But you may miss security applied on those dashboards.
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2008/04/28/migration-obiee-projects-between-dev-and-prod-environments/
Best practice is to copy whole catalog and rpd (or) Copy shared and system folders and their .atr files from OracleBIData\web\catalog\samplesales\root so that you will not miss security and you will not over ride users folders which may contain some data created by them.
Thanks,
Srikanth

Error while importing the ODI Package from Development to Production Enviroment

Hello Everybody,
Currently I'm face the problem when import ODI models (from Development) to Production environment
And the error show follwing error:
ODI - 23040 Import file "C:/BIAPPS_Package/Models/XyZ.xml" error
please help.

Do the user performing the import have permissions to import models to the production environment? I'd also mention that you would have a better setup if your production environment only held executables such as scenarios, load plans etc. and not development objects. It leads to better change control management and simplifies the migration process from DEV --> PROD

Does anyone have experience with migrating applications from iAS6.0 SP2 to SP3? Did it go smoothly or are there problems to be expected?

Hi,
I haven't. But, there are lots of changes from each service packs,
henceforth you may have to stick to what the documentation says to avoid
the errors that shoots up. Again, the errors depends upon how you have
coded your application. Please let me know if you have encountered any
errors and the messages for me to help you.

Questions on Analyzer Upgrade and Moving Analyzer Reports from Development to Production

Hi,We run Analyzer 5.0.3. We are planning to go to Analyzer 7.2. Did any body go thru this upgrade? If so, what is your opinion and tips that may help. Also, we never had Analyzer development environment. We are planning on having Analyzer development environment. In our installation, all of the Analyzer reports are centrally developed based on user requests. Once we have development and production at the same Analyzer version, if a report is developed in the development system, how can the report be mirateed/moved from development to production system?Thank you for your help,Prasant

Hi Vinay,
As Visakh mentioned, the issue usually occurs because the package runs in 64-bit runtime, however, the Excel driver is 32-bit. According to your another thread, it seems that you use SSIS 2005, right? In SSIS 2005, there is no “use 32 bit runtime” option
for the package executions of a SSIS package job step. In this condition, you have two choices:
Install the 64-bit Microsoft ACE OLE DB 12.0 Provider on the production server. Here is the download link (AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe):
http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=13255
Create a CmdExec type job step instead of SSIS Package job step, so that we can call 32-bit DTExec.exe to execute the package within command line. For more information, please see:

VC Reports transport from Development to Production

Hi all,
     How do we transport the VC Reports from Development to Production.
     How to transport the model.
     Do we need to create new System Object.
     please help me. Are there any standard document available.
Thanks & Regards,
kishore.

Hi
After importing the model as Dharmi explained, you might need to change the systems' names in the model to fit the production landscape. For example, if a backend system has an alias AAA in Dev and same system has alias BBB in prod. To do this, simply choose Tools > Manage services...
If the landscapes are compatible, you can transport only the working iView using the portal transport capabilities. Navigate to System Configuration > Transport in the Dev portal, find your iView and add it to a transport package.
Hope this helps,
Shay
