NumBroadcastThreads meaning for Data Cache setting

Hello,
I would like to ask some clarification on the meaning of the
NumBroadcastThreads setting for the TCP kodo.RemoteCommitProvider.
The documentation says this is the "The number of threads to create
for the purpose of transmitting events to peers."
My question is how to best set this value and if there are any risks
(maybe loosing some events?) when setting this value wrongly?
Thanks,
Werner

From our docs, NumBroadcastThreads: You should increase this value as the number of concurrent tx increases. The max number of
concurrent tx is a function of the size of the connection pool. Setting a value of 0 will result in behavior where the thread
invoking commit will perform the broadcast directly. Defaults to 2. LaurentHi thanks,
my question is how to best set this value and if there are any risks

Another doubt is if I set the NumBroadcastThreads value too low, can it
be that, in case of high load, it takes long time for the broadcasts to
be sent?

Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).

Hi,
Our Environment is Essbase 11.1.2.2 and working on Essbase EAS and Shared Services components.One of our user tried to run the Cal Script of one Application and faced this error.
Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than [100] ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry(a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
I have done some Google and found that we need to add something in Essbase.cfg file like below.
1012704 Dynamic Calc processor cannot lock more than number ESM blocks during the calculation, please increase CalcLockBlock setting and then retry (a small data cache setting could also cause this problem, please check the data cache size setting).
Possible Problems
Analytic Services could not lock enough blocks to perform the calculation.
Possible Solutions
Increase the number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate for a calculation:
Set the maximum number of blocks that Analytic Services can allocate to at least 500.
If you do not have an $ARBORPATH/bin/essbase.cfg file on the server computer, create one using a text editor.
In the essbase.cfg file on the server computer, set CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH to 500.
Stop and restart Analytic Server.
Add the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH command to the beginning of the calculation script.
Set the data cache large enough to hold all the blocks specified in the CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH setting.
Determine the block size.
Set the data catche size.
Actually in our Server Config file(essbase.cfg) we dont have below data added.
CalcLockBlockHigh 2000
CalcLockBlockDefault 200
CalcLockBlocklow 50
So my doubt is if we edit the Essbase.cfg file and add the above settings and restart the services will it work? and if so why should we change the Server config file if the problem is with one application Cal Script. Please guide me how to proceed.
Regards,
Naveen

Your calculation needs to hold more blocks in memory than your current set up allows.
From the docs (quoting so I don't have to write it, not to be a smarta***:
CALCLOCKBLOCK specifies the number of blocks that can be fixed at each level of the SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH | DEFAULT | LOW calculation script command.
When a block is calculated, Essbase fixes (gets addressability to) the block along with the blocks containing its children. Essbase calculates the block and then releases it along with the blocks containing its children. By default, Essbase allows up to 100 blocks to be fixed concurrently when calculating a block. This is sufficient for most database calculations. However, you may want to set a number higher than 100 if you are consolidating very large numbers of children in a formula calculation. This ensures that Essbase can fix all the required blocks when calculating a data block and that performance will not be impaired.
Example
If the essbase.cfg file contains the following settings:
CALCLOCKBLOCKHIGH 500 CALCLOCKBLOCKDEFAULT 200 CALCLOCKBLOCKLOW 50
then you can use the following SET LOCKBLOCK setting commands in a calculation script:
SET LOCKBLOCK HIGH;
means that Essbase can fix up to 500 data blocks when calculating one block.
Support doc is saying to change your config file so those settings can be made available for any calc script to use.
On a side note, if this was working previously and now isn't then it is worth investigating if this is simply due to standard growth or a recent change that has made an unexpected significant impact.

Dynamic Calc Issue - CalcLockBlock or Data Cache Setting

We recently started seeing an issue with a Dynamic scenario member in our UAT and DEV environments. When we tried to reference the scenario member in Financial Reports, we get the following error:
Error executing query: The data form grid is invalid. Verify that all members selected are in Essbase. Check log for details.com.hyperion.planning.HspException
In SmartView, if I try to reference that scenario member, I get the following:
The dynamic calc processor cannot allocare more than [10] blocks from the heap. Either the CalcLockBlock setting is too low or the data cahce size setting is too low.
The Dynamic calcs worked fine in both environments up until recently, and no changes were made to Essbase, so I am not sure why them stopped working.
I tried to set the CalcLockBlock settings in the Essbase.cfg file, and increases the data cache size. When I increases the CalcLockBlock settings, I would get the same error.
When I increased the data cache size, it would just sit there and load and load in Financial Reporting and wouldn't show the report. In SmartView, it would give me an error that it had timed out and to try to increase the NetRetry and NetDelay values.

Thanks for the responses guys.
NN:
I tried to double the Index Cache Setting and the Data Cache setting, but it appears when I do that, it crashes my Essbase app. I also tried adding the DYNCALCCACHEMAXSIZE and QRYGOVEXECTIME to essbase.cfg (without the Cache settings since it is crashing), and still no luck.
John:
I had already had those values set on my client machine, I tried to set them on the server as well, but no luck.
The exact error message I get after increasing the Cache settings is"Essbase Error (1042017) Network error: The client or server timed out waiting to receive data using TCP/IP.

Essbase BSO data cache setting

can you guys post your BSO cube compressed data size(.pag files) and data cache setting? I am trying to get a better understanding about these two areas interms of optimization. I am also curious to know the maximum data cache setting ever used on BSO cube....(1 GB is what I know as of now)
I think the settings depends on million things (available RAM on server, performance check, etc etc) but just a quick check.
Thanks,
KK

Indes and data caches work differently and it is probably good to talk about that. When an Essbase database starts, it will grab all of the memory you have defined for the index cache and nothing else can get at it. Data cachs is grabbed as it is needed until it reaches the maximum. It was truly problematic in the old days when we had much less memory to work with. If you started too many applications, you took all available memory right away. Man I feel old talking about it :)

Essbase data cache setting not registering

Hi,
We have 64-bit essbase. I changed the data and Index cache setting (storage type Buffered IO) in essbase.
After restarting the database, I see the value getting updated in the "Index cache current value" but the value in the "Data cache current value" is zero.
These are planning essbase databases. The behavior is same for the native essbase dbs.
I have also tried restarting the essbase service. The essbase version 11.1.1.3
Please help.

Spatial Data Cache Setting

Hi all,
If I disable the cache, I mean if I set max_cache_size to 0 on mapviewerConfig, Will it affect mapviewer performance or speed?
I have developed sample application to move a point data on web using mapviewer. After updating SDO_GEOMETRY column on database, I will refresh the map. The map will show moved point data only if I set max_cache_size to 0 on mapviewerConfig. Is there any mapviewer API is available to clear spatial data cache?
Thanks,
Sujnan

This is likely a bug. It assumes a 2gb limit.

Data Cache Settings

Hello,
I am coming up with the spreadhseet retreival error very frequently and get Essbase Error 1130203. I went through the Error interpretation and found that Data Cache might be causing it. Here are the details of cache settings on my

Hi,
1. For error no 1130203, here are the possible problems and solutions, straight from document.
Try any of the following suggestions to fix the problem. Once you fix the problem, check to see if the database is corrupt.
1. Check the physical memory on the server computer. In a Windows environment, 64 MB is the suggested minimum for one database. In a UNIX environment, 128 MB is the suggested minimum for one database. If the error keeps occuring, add more memory to the server computer.
2. If you are on a UNIX computer, check the user limit profile.
3. Check the block size of the database. If necessary, reduce the block size.
4. Check the data cache and data file cache setting. If necessary, decrease the data cache and data file cache sizes.
5. Make sure that the Analytic Services computer has enough resources. Consult the Analytic Services Installation Guide for a list of system requirements. If a resource-intensive application, such as a relational database, is running on the same computer, the resource-intensive application may be using the resources that Analytic Services needs

Essbase cubes - best cache setting

We implemented Essbase about 2 years ago. We have never reset our cache settings. We are experiencing slowness in our cubes. Could this be caused by our cache settings? Do we need to reset our cache setting every so often. Thanks.
Below are our current cache settings.
Index Cache Setting 50242
Index Cache Current Value 50242
Data File Cache Setting 327680
Data File Cache Current Value 0
Data Cache Setting 300720
Data Cache Current Value 87232
Index Page Setting 8
Index Page Current Value 8

We struggled with cache settings for a while until we found a sweet spot, and we make periodic adjustments. Make sure you follow the published guidelines it will save you a lot of pain. It looks like you have plenty of room on most of the cache settings and only max out the Index Cache. Below is an excerpt from the dbag...
Index Cache Recommended Value
Combined size of all essn.ind files, if possible; as large as possible otherwise. Do not set this cache size higher than the total index size, as no performance improvement results.

Possible to set CacheSize for the single-JVM version of the data cache?

Hi -
I'm using Kodo 2.3.2.
Can I set the size for the data cache when I'm using a subclass of the single-JVM version of the
data cache? Or is this only a feature for the distributed version?
Here are more details...
I'm using a subclass of LocalCache so I can display the cache contents.
The kodo.properties contains these lines:
com.solarmetric.kodo.DataCacheClass=com.siemens.financial.jdoprototype.app.TntLocalCache
com.solarmetric.kodo.DataCacheProperties=CacheSize=10
When my test program starts, it displays getConfiguration().getDataCacheProperties() and the value
is displayed as "CacheSize=10".
But when I load 25 objects by OID and display the contents of the cache, I see that all the objects
have been cached (not just 10). Can you shed light on this?
Thanks,
Les

The actual size of the cache is a bit more complex than just the CacheSize
setting. The CacheSize is the number of hard references to maintain in the
cache. So, the most-recently-used 10 elements will have hard refs to them,
and the other 15 will be moved to a SoftValueCache. Soft references are not
garbage-collected immediately, so you might see the cache size remain at
25 until you run out of memory. (The JVM has a good deal of flexibility in
how it implements soft references. The theory is that soft refs should stay
around until absolutely necessary, but many JVMs treat them the same as
weak refs.)
Additionally, pinning objects into the cache has an impact on the cache
size. Pinned objects do not count against the cache size. So, if you have
15 pinned objects, the cache size could be 25 even if there are no soft
references being maintained.

Set request timeout for distributed cache

Hi,
Coherence provides 3 parameters we can tune for the distributed cache
tangosol.coherence.distributed.request.timeout      The default client request timeout for distributed cache services
tangosol.coherence.distributed.task.timeout      The default server execution timeout for distributed cache services
tangosol.coherence.distributed.task.hung      the default time before a thread is reported as hung by distributed cache services
It seems these timeout values are used for both system activities (node discovery, data re-balance etc.) and user activities (get, put). We would like to set the request timeout for get/put. But a low threshold like 10 ms sometimes causes the system activities to fail. Is there a way for us to separately set the timeout values? Or even is it possible to setup timeout on individual calls (like get(key, timeout))?
-thanks

Hi,
not necessarily for get and put methods, but for queries, entry-processor and entry-aggregator and invocable agent sending, you can make the sent filter or aggregator or entry-processor or agent implement PriorityTask, which allows you to make QoS expectations known to Coherence. Most or all stock aggregators and entry-processors implement PriorityTask, if I correctly remember.
For more info, look at the documentation of PriorityTask.

How to configure params for buffer pool for named data cache?

when create a named data cache on ase 12.5, it will setup 2K I/O buffer pool by default with Configured size=0, wash size = 60M
1. if 2K can be changed to 8K for this buffer pool?
2. If add another 16k buffer pool, should Affected Pool be changed to the right pool?
3. How to decide then pagesize, configured size and wash size for a buffer pool? Are they part of total memory size allocated for this cache?

> 1. if 2K can be changed to 8K for this buffer pool?
You should be able to create an 8K i/o pool, then drop the 2k pool by setting its size to 0.
> 2. If add another 16k buffer pool, should Affected Pool be changed to the right pool?
If you don't specify the Affected Pool (when calling sp_poolconfig), the procedure uses the pool with the smallest i/o. So if you had an 8k but not had dropped the 2k, the space for the new 16k pool would come from the 8k pool.
> 3. How to decide then pagesize, configured size and wash size for a buffer pool? Are they part of total memory size allocated for this cache?
The wash is included in the pool. I don't think it usually needs to be adjusted.
Which page size pools to have will depend on how the cache is used. Tables with a clustered index that have a lot of range queries will benefit from larger page size pools, as will text/image/java. Syslogs is said to do well on a 4k pool.

Establish a connection through RF modem's on client & server side & to set up PPP communication for data transfer

hi
can any1 over here help me out in how to establish connection between 2 RF modem's for data transfer , between client & server USing LABVIEW?
I want to establish a connection between 2 PC's through RF modem on client & server side & to set up PPP communication for data transfer.
(I have tried data transfer through RS-232 using TCP/IP whn the 2 PC's are connected over ethernet... which is working.
I also tried connecting loopback cable between 2 PC's COM port & geting data transfer using VIsa configure serial port & other visa functions ... which is working)
can u guide me how to establish connection between 2 RF modem's using LABview?
& how does the data transfer take place between 2 RF modems through RS-232?
is it using TCP/IP?
If you got any links to go abt this issue do send me related links .. or any examples .....
I am currently using Labview version 8.
Waiting in anticipation.. reply ASAP..
thanking you
Regards
Yogan..

Howdy yogan,
Maybe you could clarify a few things for me, and we'll see how we can help ya. TCP/IP protocol occurs through an ethernet connection; RS-232 communication occurs through an RS-232 serial connection, typically through a cable that has a DB9 connector on both ends. Do you mean that the RF modems in question have the option to communicate via RS-232 and/or via TCP/IP ethernet? Specific information like the manufacturer of your RF modems, the model number of your RF modems, and how you connect the modems to the PC would enable us to give you more efficient support.
You can check our Instrument Driver Network (IDNet) to see if a plug-and-play/IVI driver already exists for your RF modem. (You'll need to know its manufacturer and model number.) In the case that you do find an IDNet driver for your modem, you can use this KnowledgeBase article for instructions on how to use the driver.
Another excellent resource to consider is the NI Example Finder. You can access this within LabVIEW by navigating to Help»Find Examples and then searching for serial or TCP/IP examples.

Setting Expire Time for Data

Hi,
Is there any way to set the expire time for data in BDB? I need the data persist only for a limited time, after that the data should be deleted from db.
If no such option available, is there any external tool to do this?
Thanks,

Thanks Sandra for your response.
I need to store the key/value pair for specific time, means it shouldn't persist ever. It should persist for some user specific time. After that it should be automatically deleted/expired. or Any other tool should do this!
Let me explain the scenario in elaboration, i need to store session (some) variables for 30 minutes, even if the user loggedout before 30 mins, some session variables should persist in the
database for 30 min. After 30 mins even if the user loggedin some session variable should be cleaned.
so i need the data to persist only for 30 mins!
My understanding is db->del will delete the key/value pair, but there is no such option for expire time.
Thanks,
