Migration of planning from essbase side

Hi,
Planning Migration have:
1) migration of provisioning (CSSImportExport utility)
2) migration of planning application (using schema restore on dummy application) (data form, outline, task list, etc....)
3) migration of essbase objects for planning application (like business rule export/import, data export/import)
I am not sure which option should i use for moving calc script, report script, load rules, configuration file -.cfg, substitution variable, data cache settings etc)
should i use file copy to move file?
should i use migration utility inside EAS to move these information?
does the order of migration is correct 1, 2 and then 3.
Version 9.3.1 to 9.3.1
Please help.

Hi John,
Thanks for the help.
you mean to say copy file for calc script, report script, load rules.- which is OK for me.
what about configuration file -.cfg, substitution variable, data cache settings etc ?
what would be recommended for substitution variable, data cache settings, configuration file -cfg, etc)

Also before that do we need make a client copy of the BW production system.
After the users and the respective authorizations are migrated does they get migrated into new authorizations or we need modify any.

Loading metadata from Essbase to Planning.

Hi,
I want to know what are the methods to load metadata into planning from essbase cube. I tried outline extractor to make a csv file, then I've used ODI to reverse the file and create a datasource. Then I reversed the planning application, created the interface and mapped the dimensions. I have more dimensions in planning target than the file datasource and when I execute the interface I always having some problem.
Do i need to create a sql table from the csv file and then reversed and map it to planning? Is there an easy way I can load the members without using ODI?
Thanks in advance,
-Hussain

Hi John,
I have tried the essbase to planning series. There were no errors in the operator but I dont see any members in planning after database refresh. I checked the log file and it says:

Rahul,
As John pointed out, copyapp may be available between different versions of planning but is not compatible between different versions of the software. When a copyapp command runs, it connects to shared services, planning and essbase data sources and basically performs an export and import of data. It works on the premise that structure for export is same as structure for import. However, the underlying architecture for shared services (moving away from openldap) and planning tables, essbase (security outside .sec file) has changed and there you cannot just export and import between different versions of software.

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.

Migrate the users, groups from essbase 7.1.6 to shared services

Hi
Our current production is essbase version 7.1.6 and we are planning to migrate to EPM 11.1.2 . We would like to move the security administration from Essbase to Shared Services (want to use Native Directory).
can somebody please suggest
1) An utility that Oracle provides with EPM 11.1.2 that helps to migrate the users and groups from 7.1.6 to shared services?
2) After bringing the users groups from 7.1.6 to 11.1.2, do we need to externalize these users and groups or no need?
Appreciate the help. Thanks,

if you have LDAP/MSAD try to configure it first .That will get your users
Now using maxl
spool on to GROUP.txt
display gruoup all;
spool on to USER.txt
display user in group all;
for test purpose create a test group and a test user from the shared services.
Now using GROUP.txt
make up maxl statements to create groups(use any advanced text editor or MS excel to get your work done fast)
create group 'groupname';
now login into that shared services
go to FOundation Application group->click sharedservices->drop down native directory ->Right click on Groups and select export for edit.THat will save you Groups.csv file.
Now
1.Open that Groups.csv file
2.Using USER,txt ,paste the users in that file under their respective group.(Look for test group created that should give you an idea!!!)
3.Paste user correctly and save it to the same file Groups.csv
4.go to FOundation Application group->click sharedservices->drop down native directory ->Right click on Groups and select IMPORT for edit.
5.that will get your users into the groups.
________filters_______
Using maxl again
spool on to FILTER.txt
display filter row all;
spool on to GRPRIVILEGE.txt
display privilege group all;
Now using FILTER.txt
create maxl statements
(use any advanced text editor or MS excel to get your work done fast)
Ex: create filter app.database.filtername read/write/none/metaread on 'AREA ' ;
Using GRPRIVILEGE.txt
create maxl statements
grant filter app.databse.filtername to 'groupname';
that should get your filters created and assigned.
else you can use Advanced Security Manger

hope that should give you an idea!!!!!!!

Migration of application from Oracle Express 6.3.4 to Essbase 9

I got a requirement to migrate an application from Oracle Express to Essbase.Can any one help me if there is any documentation for migration or else do I have to rebuild a new application in Essbase with the same functionality as in Oracle Express.
Rgrds,
G.K

As far as I am aware there is no migration tool to convert to essbase and you will have to build a new application in essbase.
On a side note this campaign from Oracle back in 1998 amuses me - http://books.google.co.uk/books?id=4VEEAAAAMBAJ&lpg=PA17&ots=Amg-YO3m5X&pg=PA17#v=onepage&q&f=false
The line "Oracle Express Server slaughtered Arbor Essbase in both load and calculation times and query times" is a classic.
I wonder if Oracle feel the same way now :)

Steps to migrate Hyperion Planning application from 9.2.0 to new 9.3.1 env

We currently have 9.2.0 Hyperion planning installed in a windows env. We are planning to setup a new Hyperion planning env on a totally new hardware upgraded env. Would be appreciate if some can outline steps invloved to migrate Hyperion Planning apps, forms, BR ect from 9.2.0 to the newly setip 9.3.1 env. Is there any documentation, URL's to do the above. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Any issue to look out for, setbacks details would be helpful.
Thanks..

Hi,
One way of doing it would be :-
Create a new database for your planning application 9.3.1
Create a datasource to the database
Create a fresh planning application on version 9.3.1 make sure the admin is the same name as your old 9.2 planning app
Go into the database tables for the planning app and look at table HSP_USERS, store the SID value against user 50001
Go into the database planning system tables and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application you have created
Stop Planning
Restore the 9.2 planning application database over the one created in the first step
Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
Start planning
Go to planning web and you should see your application when you try and log in it should take you to a migrate screen.
If you are requiring to migrate users as well, you will have to make sure you create them in Shared Services and then use the updateusers utility in the planning bin directory.
Or you could try using the copy app utility though I don't believe it is the best utility about and not sure how it handles between different versions(http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/html_hp_admin/ch09s01.html)

Migration of Planned Orders from one SAP system to another one

Hi,
A quick help needed.
We are migrating SAP data from one SAP system to other due to business split. Regarding PP data, can Planned orders be migrated as it is from one SAP System to another? What is the impact if we do so?
Appreciate your response.
Kind Regards,
tanuji

hi ,
As suggested , you can propose to migrate only Firmed Planned orders from SAP to SAP system .
How to acheive it ?
You can use below BAPI to extract details of planned order from Table PLAF and upload in TARGET SYSTEM
BAPI_PLANNEDORDER_CREATE
Please note newly created Planned order in Target system would not have BOM EXPLOSION and Scheduling .
If need , Make a BDC recording as a add on step to explode Bom and Schedule by clicking those icons in Planned order .
Technical Team can do this .

Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can only extract metadata from essbase, if you want to have a look at some examples of how to do it then have a read here

Help in strategy for Migrating to MPLS from PRN cloud Same provider

Dear,
We are planning to migrate to MPLS from PRN using same provider, I have about 12 sites to migrate, new circuits have been provisioned and new routers are ready to be shipped to each site for installation.
Now, I am facing a dilemma, briefly speaking with provider they tell me that we can migrate a site a time no problem here, then next day they tell me it needs to be a hot cut over migration how can this be? so going back and forth and tayloring routers configurations I literally stopped, would like ask for assistance and your opinion on how to go about such migration to tentatively lock into a solid strategy.
Any documents out there you can point me to or experience in such migration will be appreciated.
All of our sites currently connect to PRN cloud including HQ, running OSPF multiple areas, at a glance I was thinking the provider would somehow bridge the two clouds so that I could build a parallel infrastructure and migrate branch offices one at a time but I am still unclear on how to proceed, I will be speaking with the provider more extensively in the next few days but any guidance will be appreciated.
Best Regards

Henry, thanks for those links and help.
Would like to share what I have done which seems so far to be working properly, so that if any one comes accross they get an idea.
It turned out our RPN/MPLS provider cannot or don't want to somehow cross connect the two clouds, so I was forced to do the cross connect at my end begining with two sites, I have setup what I had in mind, for each of the two targeted sites I have installed a new 3845 router with new DS3 link to MPLS cloud and created a cross connect to a 6509_switch_router that is connected under the PRN infrastructure. The 3845 was configured as a virtual link for ospf, all good here so far the 3845 joing ospf domain and received routing table from from PRN side. The next site had also new router and new circuit for the MPLS side, at this second site I brough down the router connecting to PRN cloud then brought up the new 2811 router which I had preconfigured under the same ospf domain and received routing table from the 3845 router DS3 MPLS link. We will let it run for a week to allow to troubleshoot or spod any issues before proceeding to migrate more sites.
