Migrating Essbase from 7.1.6 to 11.1.2.2 in Unix Environment

Hi Experts,
we are going to migrate Essbase from 7.1.6 to 11.1.2.2 in unix environment. We have heard that we cant migrate directly from 7.X to 11.X Version. If so, then how can we proceed. Please suggest the steps to follow and documents to proceed in Unix Environment. I am new to unix environment.
Your suggestions will be more helpful...
Thanks,
Chinnu

Thanks Celvin,
But my doubt is can we migrate 7.1.6 version Essbase to 11.2.2 version in a single shot? I have heard like If we want migrate 7.1.6 to 11.1.2.2
1. we have to migrate 7.1.6 to 11.1.3 and then
2. 11.1.3 to 11.1.2.2.
Will the migration utility work to migrate 7.1.6 to 11.2.2? Please suggest on this am not getting a clear clarification on this.
Thanks,
Chinnu

  • Essbase migration procedure from Unix to NT

    Does anyone have a procedure to migrate essbase from unix to wondows NT? I know that is a procedure in installation guide Ch.10, but I think it is just for the NT to NT..

    we did this last year. export the data from the databases to a text file, use level 0 if you only load at level 0.after installing essbase on nt, add the same name apps and dbs in nt, connect to the unix & nt servers in appman, copy the outlines/dbs from unix to nt. load the data from your exports.copy all the object files eg .csc, .rpt, etc from the unix server, reset all server, app and db settings, including cfg file and recalc.we recreated security ids, groups and filters

  • Migration Path from v2008.3 to v9.3.2

    Is there a migration path from v2008.3 to v9.3.2?
    Our v2008.3 environment is on a Windows 2003 server, therefore we cannot do an in-place upgrade to v9.3.2 (on Windows 2008R2).  CatalogDeployer does not work between v2008.3 and v9.3.2.
    Any ideas on how to move the services from one environment to another?
    Please help!

    We were on 2008.3 and then went to 9.1 SP2.  The upgrade meant we had to install the last service pack for 2008 and then install to 9.1 and then install the SP2 pack.  This change fro 2008.3 to 9.1 SP2 was a big pain for us on the Reporting side.  The MyServices and ServiceDesigner pieces had little problems.  This was an upgrade from Win2003 w/ SQL 2005 to Win2003 w/SQL 2008.  We've been running 9.1 SP2 on SQL2008 for a year now with no problems.
    We are now upgrading to 9.3.2 and are just going to run the 9.3.2 installer.  We will have new servers put in place with Win 2008R2 and on the database side have just done an inplace update from SQL 2008 to SQL 2008 R2.  This means that currently we are running 9.1 SP2 on SQL 2008 R2 in production.  We run a very high volume for RequestCenter so the setup works fine for us in this topology.  Going to Win2008 we are going to copy the database tables and run an in-place upgrade on the newly built Win2008 app server. 
    As for CatalogDeployer, we kept the old environment and the new environment around while testing the upgrade.  This meant we could make changes to Prod using the old environment and then once production was upgraded, we deleted the old environment.

  • Upgrade Path for migrating Essbase 7.1 to Essbase 11.1.2.1??

    Can any one tell me the upgrade path (and related documents) for migrating Essbase 7.1 to Essbase 11.1.2.1??

    Thanks Nathan for your response.
    Will the below Essbase Upgrade steps work (From version 7.1 to Version 11.1.2.1 directly)?
    1. Install Essbase 11.1.2.1 in one server (new) and Shared Services in another server (new). Both the new servers with Win 2008 OS.
    2.Login to EAS console in the new server. Open the outline version 7.1 and then migrate to version 11.1.2.1.
    3. Copy the artifacts (such as Calc Scripts and Rule Files etc.) from the Old Essbase directory (Version 7.1) to the new Essbase directory (Version 11.1.2.1).
    4. Extract data from the old system and import into the new system.
    5. Export Essbase security from old system and import to the shared services of the new system. This might requires some manual interventions.
    Or, do I have to upgarde from version 7.1 to 11.1.1.3 and then from 11.1.1.3 to 11.1.2.1?

  • Migrating Security from Native to External Authentication mode Servers

    Hi All,
    I am migrating applications from V7, V9 (doesn't use Shared services) to V11 (Shared Services Enabled) Essbase server.
    I am able to migrate the application definition using the Application Migration Wizard.
    Take level-0 export from the source server & load on the target server & do the default-calc or series of custom calcs depending upon the application's maintenance process.
    Using the Application Migration wizard, we can also migrate security only if both Source & Target servers use Native Authentication mode.
    This can be ruled out in my case as only Sources are native & Target is Shared services enabled.
    Here are few tools available to do bulk provisioning on a Shared Services enabled Essbase application -
    1. MAXL - Works great - But too tedious to create the MAXL statements based on the security definitions on the Source servers.
    2. CSS Import-Export utility - I heard it works only when both Source & Target are Shared services enabled. Can this be used for my case. Also heard many didn't find success with this one.
    3. LCM - Not sure if this can be used for security.
    Are there any other utilities?
    Has anyone done similar migrations before? Please let me know the best practice to do this.
    Appreciate your thoughts.
    -Ethan.

    It is much easier to go about that method, it is not always 100% successful with groups/users but gets most done.
    If you are past that stage then maybe try using the advanced security manager to extract security from your source environment.
    Then you could use the CSSImportExport Utility, first create a template from the information you extracted from your source and then run use the utility to provision users in the new environment.
    There are obviously other ways but that is the way I would prefer if using Shared services security.
    Cheers

  • 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 Essbase Objects

    While migrating essbase objects from one essbase server to another, i copy the whole applciation folder in NT environment.this invariably copies the app.app and app.apb files.
    I opened the .app file and saw the database setup details in there and realized that the target app essbase server is different.
    Does this mean that copying of .app and .apb files are not needed while migration?
    Also, in the target environment, there is not .apb file. i guess this is because it is a newly created blank application upon which the migration is done. In that case, when in the .apb file created as this is the app backup file.

    Hi,
    The Best thing you can do during migration is, Export Level 0 data first. If you want to use the wizard, it will copy all the Essbase objects. Copy the security file from Dev to QA (assume you are migrating from Dev to QA). If you do not want to use the wizard, just simply create the application in the new server, open the outline (Dev outline) and save it in QA. Now you can import the data and run the calc script. Hope this helps and i did this process many times

  • How to migrate users from HUB to Shared Services

    Hi,
    We are upgrading Essbase from 7.1.6 to 9.3.1. In 7.1.6 we were using Hyperion HUB for provisioning and we are going to use Shared Services with External authentication for the provsioning from now on.
    My question is what is the best way of migrating users from Hyperion HUB to Shared Services.
    Thanks,
    MP

    After you copy the SQL Repository across to the new environment and log in with the owner account, you will be required to register the application with Shared Services. After registering with SS it should prompt you to "Migrate Users and Groups" which will do the migration for you.

  • Error while migrating reports from one instance to another(no torch seen)

    Hi,
    I am facing this problem when I am trying to migrate reports from UAT to Production. After migration when I try to run the report from Discoverer plus, I cannot see the torch symbol which is general if we have any parameters for that report. So, I again migrate the same .eex file and now I see the torch.
    Can any one throw some thoughts why is this happening, why I cannot see the torch symbol in the first time itself?
    Thanks,
    Srini.

    Hi Srini
    The list of values is not being associated with the item the first time around. The order in which the items are selected is important so for example if lists of values were imported first without the items upon which they depend they will be ignored. Running the import a second time will cause the LOVs to recognize their associated item and thus the association will be made.
    Generally I do two exports. I will export my folders and workbooks first and then export my item classes.
    Hope this helps explain what you are seeing.
    Best wishes

  • Migrating menues from oracle 11i to R12

    Hi all,
    I have to migrate Menus from Oracle 11i to R12, this can be done using FND_LOAD, but we have to migrate it using API's. Please suggest me the API name and approach. Currently I am investigating on fnd_menus_pkg.load_row and fnd_menu_entries_pkg.load_row . Please let mw know if these are the correct API's to migrate Menus. Any help is appreciated.

    If the version of $FND_TOP/patch/115/import/afsload.lct and the table structure is identical on both instances, you may use FNDLOAD for your custom menus. However, I would not recommend using FNDLOAD or any API between different application releases.

    Hi,
    as stated before if the desname value is pointing to the client filesystem it wont create the output there because Reports Server is not running on the client, it is running on the server as this is the way it is.
    If you want to save output to the client you need to use the options mentioned before.
    For testing purposes only change your code as follows.
    e.g
    Add_Parameter(pl_id,'DESNAME',TEXT_PARAMETER, 'c:\'||vACNAME||' '||:BLOCK50.DOCDATE||'.PDF') ;
    As you can see I changed the original folder name to C:\ .. (I hope your reports serve is running on a Windows machine if not then changed to /tmp). Run your form and check c:\ or /tmp and see if you see the report output there. If so,
    than your code is fine the only problem is what I have already stated.

  • Migrating portal from 10g to 11g

    Hi,
    We are in the process of upgrading oracle mid tier from 10gAS to OFMW 11g and also migrating it from Solaris to Linux.
    With regard the portal migration from OAS 10g to OFMW 11g
    1) Is it possible to migrate portal objects from 10g (solaris) to a new install of OFMW portal 11g(linux) directly OR do we have to upgrade the existing OAS 10g to OFMW portal 11g (on Solaris) and then migrate the portal objects to OFMW Portal 11g (on Linux)
    I am new to portal migration. Any suggestions and additional details would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    RB

    Migration + upgrade in one shot is do-able, because upgrade will require a sequence of processes but they will be mostly based on repository upgrade, and hence will be transparent to the OS you are using.
    However, in practice, the standard rule-of-thumb is that you avoid dealing with multiple layers of complications in a single shot. That means, you break complications in such steps where you could recognize the sources of any later errors/problems you encounter.
    hope that helps!
