OBIEE Admin Tool (11g) takes very long to start up

I am running on Windows 8.1, on a new, fairly powerful desktop machine, and launching the BI Admin Tool takes much longer than (I feel) it should. I haven't timed it but it's in the ballpark of 15-30 minutes. I double-click the shortcut and immediately I see a black console window with the title "BI Administration", but it takes such a long period of time to eventually open a GUI window. I can observe via Task Manager that the CPU appears to be utilized constantly during this startup time. Could I have something configured incorrectly? Any advice on solving this problem would be much appreciated.

Hi,
If you look at the certification matrix for OBIEE you will see the Admin Tool is currently not officially supported on Windows 8.1, for now it's only up to Windows 7 (and starting from Windows XP if not wrong).
Making it work on Windows 8.1 is a workaround (I remind I read it require the 32bit version even on a 64bit OS) so you can't complain if it's taking long or not working at all.
For a perfectly working Admin Tool stay on supported environment => use a virtual machine.

  • ESSBASE + OBIEE Dashboards or OBIEE ADMIN TOOL + OBIEE Dashboards.

    Hi all,
    Hi all,
    I am currently working on the proposal for a Financial BI reporting project for a company in the UK and would like to know the advantages of using ( ESSBASE + OBIEE Dashboards) solution over (OBIEE ADMIN TOOL + OBIEE Dashboards).
    As the project has complex data model the client is insisting on Essbase; will ESSBASE give me more flexibility over BI Admin tool in data modeling and cube designing?
    Appreciate your thoughts.
    Regards

    Hi,
    OBIEE has infinitely superior reporting functionality to Essbase.
    Essbase is absolutely excellent if you want to give your users data input and intuitive drill features. For financial projects Essbase is excellent for budgeting, planning, forecasting etc where you want a good deal of user input on a flexible and intuitive basis for data modelling from a large end user audience.
    Essbase is a highly complimentary product for OBIEE as OBIEE fills its reporting needs, modelling Essbase cubes in the repository is brilliantly fast and Essbase' cubes create things like dimension hierarchies purely by dragging physical cubes into the business model layer.
    11g features like asymmetrical drilling, ragged hierarchies etc could have been built with Essbase in mind - and MOLAP was definitely built with Essbase in mind.
    I would recommend looking at the Oracle by Example for Hyperion (which has Essbase at its core) for a feel of what Essbase can do for you.
    regards,
    Robert.

    OK. If you believe that.
    When the disk is starting to die it can be bad for a moment and then be good for a while. If there was no problem while you were checking it of course it shows up good.
    I tell you those are the signs of a disk that is about to die.

    Hi, original poster here. I did not realize this would generate more discussion so I never checked back. I still had my warranty, so I took it to the store and got it repaired. The original problem I had was a screen with this icon flashing when I attempted to boot it up:
    When I took it to the store, they told me that my computer was unable to communicate with the hard drive. I had this same problem three times in two months where this screen reappeared. Each time I went back to the store and they said the cause was different, but they were all hardware issues that physically made it impossible to communicate with the hard drive. After the third time, they simply replaced my laptop and I haven't had the same problem.
    So in short: The reason you can't reinstall or move anything when you encounter this screen appears to be because nothing can communicate with the hard drive in the first place. You can't reach the disk or anything on it. So I don't believe it's possible to do anything besides take it to a physical store and have it fixed.

  • Retrieving free/busy information from the server takes very long time

    Hello, we are running Outlook 2010 32-bit in Windows 7 64.bit, and  have encountered a strange problem, whenever we want to book
    a resource (i.e. conference room) from Scheduling assistant, it takes very long time, sometimes even more than a minute to see the utilization of the room, it being stuck at "Updating schedule information. Retrieving free/busy information from the server"
    The interesting thing is that most newly deployed PCs exhibits this same behavior, while older machines with basically the same setup gets the availability information almost immediately.
    It is unclear whether this is a server setting or desktop issue, as all new Windows 7/Outlook machines that are deployed from the WDS-server exhibits the same slow behavior.
    Please advise any troubleshooting steps to investigate the very slow retrieval lookup of free/busy information from the Exchange server.

    Hi,
    Does this issue occur on OWA?
    If no, it means the issue is mainly related to the Outlook client.

  • Utlrp.sql takes very long (8 hours) while upgrade database from 9i to 10g

    1) Follow the note of 369693.1 ; and 362203.1 to upgrade database from 9.2.0.6 to 10.2.0.4 for e-business suite 11i (11.5.10.2)
    2) utlrp.sql takes very long (8 hours), even the job_queue_processes > 20.
    This is not acceptable for the upgrade in production environment which will take a long down time.
    Appreciate that any one can share tips on this, our database is about 400 GB, 4 CPU on production.

    in which our database has about 40,000 packages and 28,000 Virews. With this number of invalid objects, it is ok that utlrp.sql takes this time.
    using parallel worker of 4 for 2 CPUMake this 8 (4 * No. of CPUs).

    this is real real urgent .
    Ragards

    Hi,
    first ask yourself if a SELECT FOR UPDATE is really necessary. If so, try to use an FOR UPDATE OF <attribute>. If there are many users accessing and updateing this table try NOWAIT Option. Your process will not be blocked on case of another lock. You will get error ORA-00054 and can do other things while waiting.
    Keep in mind that locks will only released after COMMIT.
    But remember to ask yourself. Row locking can be very time consuming. If you can avoid it.
    Bye,

  • Failover of ASCS takes very long on a Windows Server 2008 Cluster

    Hello everybody,
    I have configured a ABAP SCS (NetWeaver 7.0) running on a Windows Server 2008 Cluster. The database runs on SQL Server 2008 which is also configured for use in the MSCS. The ASCS and the database run fine in the Cluster. So far so good.
    When I want to move the SAP Group which contains the ASCS from on node the other node, then the failover will take very long (approximately 2-3 minutes). The Service of the group will go offline in a few seconds, but the Instance needs about 1 minute to go offline and on the other node it needs more then one minute to become online.
    The failover of the databaseinstance will take only about 10 seconds.
    Have you got any ideas why the failover of the SAP Group will take so long?
    Thanks for your help in advance!
    Kind Regards,
    Wolfgang

    One minute would be somewhat long if you are running a faster server and just the ABAP environment. But I've seen ABAP/JAVA systems take up to 10 minutes to restart on a win 2005 clustered system.
    Have you looked through the developer traces?
