Performance Management Dashboard (PMD) -- BPC 5.1 & SQL 2005?

Hi all,
Here's a good question:  The Performance Management Dashboard (PMD), is a main part of the Sales & Demonstration cycle, but it doesn't appear to actually be a standard part of BPC 5.1...
Has anyone tried to enable the PMD (you know, with the thermometer, etc.) on either BPC 5.1 or SQL 2005?
I have tried it, and didn't have much luck with the latest version -- apparently the PMD with SP2.  Below is the thread where one of the old Outlooksoft folks says that it's not part of the system anymore:
[Re: BPC 5.1 Performance and Dashboards|Re: BPC 5.1 Performance and Dashboards]

Garret,
I have had exactly the same error with the eData menu at several customers. I solved it following the method below. It might be that these changes also have a positive effect on your issue.
Changes have to be made to the outlooksoft.config file and the connectionstrings in tblappsetinfo. Be sure to restart the server(s) after applying these changes.
1. In outlooksoft.config file of x:\OutlookSoft\Websrvr\bin folder on the web server change the following line:
<add key="Database_AppServerDBConn" value="Server=<servername>;Database=AppServer;Trusted_Connection=True;"/>
to
<add key="Database_AppServerDBConn" value="Server=<servername>;Database=AppServer;Trusted_Connection=True;pooling=false"/>
Please note that where I have <servername> you should put the name of your server ****
Also, add the pooling=false; to every connection string in tblappsetinfo.
Hope, but am not sure, it helps,
Alwin

  • BOE XI 3.1 Performance Manager/Dashboard Manager - Import Customer Calendar

    I am trying to load a custom calendar in Performance Manager through the interface using the Import Calendar. I have followed the format correctly and loaded the CSV file onto BOE. When i try and load the calendar it keeps giving me error message and doesn't load. The error message is irrelevant to me i just need to know has anyone managed to load a calendar through the import calendar from BOE i.e. InfoView (Portal) successfully?
    Also there is no separate topic on the Performance Manager on this forum so had to post in general.
    Any comments would be appreciated.

  • Is partitioning supported in BPC 5.1 (SQL 2005)

    Hi guys
    We run BPC 5.1 SP5 on a clustered SQL 2005 environment.
    I am looking in to how we can improve response times for our users and one of the suggestions is to partition the AS cube and/or the DB tables.
    I am led to believe that partitioning the cube is possible, so am looking for any pointers on the best way to do that (and any ideas of what speed improvements are possible) from someone who has the knowledge.
    There has been some debate internally on whether or not it is possible to partition the tables with our version of BPC.  Can anyone confirm whether or not BPC 5.1 SP5 can handle it and the best way to do it using SQL 2005?
    I know it's a lot to ask, but I could really use the pointers.
    Thanks
    Craig

    Craig,
    You can do Partition in AS DB.
    There was a bug in AS that didn't keep partititon information but it was fixed.
    Please try it.
    Also you can find How to document in here.

  • Performance Management - Layout

    Hi All,
    I really need your brilliant advice on how to change the standard layout of Performance Management Module.
    I've issue, where one of my client want to freeze column for objective. So then, they no need to scroll left or right to read the objective.Thus am appreaciate if someone can help me on this matter.
    Any good information regarding this module, am really apprecite that.
    Thanks in advance
    RJ

    Hi RJ,
    Are you saying that you have managed to get the Performance Management Desktop (PMD), to work with BPC 5.1 in some way?  It was designed for v. 5.0.
    If so, that's an item that a lot of folks would be interested to know how to do.
    As to your question, I've always heard that it would require some custom editing of the style sheets for the page (CSS).  I've done some web development and editing of cascading style sheets here and there, but was never able to get the PMD to work on v. 5.1.  If it can work, either I or others with web experience can help with the style sheets.
    thanks,
    Garrett

  • Problem in refreshing Performance Manager Metric

    Hi,
    We are Using SAP BusinessObjects XI 3.1 SP3.
    On this environment, we have configured SAO BO Performance manager / Dashboard manager Application (not EPM).
    While refreshing the metric following error occurs;
    Error:The probe engine cannot query the repository.(EPM 03008)<Metric Name> : ORA-00936:missing expression
    Any clue on this?
    BTW, I have tried to debug the problem and verified that, the query generated for metric is syntactically correct and runs without any problem (when @prompt replaced by actual date).
    Some more details are as below;
    Created a Calendar (Monthly) and also Created a Dimension.
    The Connection is created which has privileges to access both PM Repository Schema and the Report Data Schema.
    Thanks,
    With Regards,

    the very simple strategy to do is to call removeAllItems() method for the 2nd combox box and then insert the contents. this is because the validate() method is not repeatedly called and so the contents are not updated immediately.

  • Custom DTS package migration from BPC 4.2 ,SQL 2000 to BPC 7.0 M , SQL 2005

    Is there any changes required in the custom dts package when migration from BPC 4.2 , sql 2000 Environment to bpc 7.0 , SQL 2005/2008  Environment.
    or
    Please suggest process for migrating  custom dts package from BPC 4.2 ,SQL 2000 Envirnment to BPC 7.0 ,SQL 2005/2008 Environment

    When you say "custom dts package" that can mean many different things. What type of customization has been done?
    There are a few BPC-related features which changed from 4.2, which must be manually adjusted, if you're using those features.
    But SQL itself also changed dramatically in moving from SQL 2000 to 2005. So if your customer's packages are heavily customized around SQL 2000, this may require substantial re-work.
    The only migration process for custom DTS packages -- that I'm aware of -- is to use the SQL 2005 migration tool in SSIS, see how much it messed up, and then fix everything else that's still broken.
    But there also may be opportunities to improve the package overall. SQL 2005 has a lot of great new features in SSIS, over what was there in SQL 2000.
    I haven't started working with SQL 2008 yet, so I can't say what complexity there is in upgrading DTS packages from 2005 to 2008. From what I read in the BPC 7 release notes, it sounds like it's a very minor upgrade, compared to the jump from 2000 to 2005.

  • BPC 5.1 Performance and Dashboards

    Hi:
    I have BPC 5.1 Installation and cannot find the Performance feature installed.
    I have seen this in Demo VMware which is located at http://<<server>>/osoft/performance/default.aspx.
    I could not find this and when I checked my server installation I do not have performance folder in my web directory.
    Is there a separate installation for performance and dashboards?
    Thanks,

    I am sorry to say but it is not part of the product, it is technically a prototype/custom solution. It will not be supported in 5 nor become part of the commercial product.

  • Performance manager sql action rule for updating metric table

    Hi, I need to update metric stop_date using a sql action rule (Performance Manager execute sql action rule). My problem is I can't update stop_date into the PM Repository Database. Sql action database connection is properly set, but when I set sql for executing update in table ci_probe and I schedule the rule the system doesn't seem to connect to Database (the rule run successfully, but the table ci_probe is not updated). I don't understand if the problem is database connection or wrong sql code.
    Can Anyone help me with suggestions or sql action rule samples?

  • MSS Dashboard for Performance Management - PMP vs Flexi-Form

    Hello Experts,
    I have the following problem in Performance Management.
    We have decided to use PMP template for some employees (manager level) and Flexi-form for remaining employees (because we have pre-defined criteria in template that PMP UI is not showing).
    I found that PMP dashboard in MSS is only showing PMP appraisals.
    When manager opens Flex-form UI, it is showing all appraisals that the manager is responsible for (PMP & Flexi) and when the manager clicks on an employee's appraisal document link, it is always displaying the document in Flexi UI mode.
    If a manager is having half of his employees using PMP and other half using Flexi-form, what is the best way for him to look at Dashboard (initial screen to open employee's appraisals), so that for PMP appraisals will open with PMP UI and Flexi appraisals will open with Flexi UI?
    Thanks

    Hi Raghu,
    So i was wrong about it being portal development, glad I finally figured out how to do it. 
    configuring the "quick criteria maintenance": 
    It can be done by config following this post:  Define default value in POWL Quick Criteria Maintenance for all users
    regarding assessment, it doesn't work for you, b/c you probably haven't done the configuration.  go to talent management and talent development > talent assessment.
    here you wil have to read all the IMG activities, the documentation is decent on how to implement.  Basically with EP4, there are new types of assessment that a manager can do besides just performance, this includes assessing potential, risks, barriers, and development plans.  all of these assessments processes tie into downstream talent management processes such as talent review meetings and succession planning.  hope this helps.

  • Bad Performance on SQL 2005 multiserver installation

    We have upgraded our server environment from  a single server solution with SQL 2000 and are now running on a multiserver solution with one DB server with SQL 2005 and two applictionservers.
    And now we are experience a much slower performance in our new environment on all EVDRE reports. Is there anyone who know about any issue with a multiserver environment or SQL 2005 that makes the reports slower?
    In our more advanced report with "expand by sheet" that took about 1 minute to expand on our old environment can take up to 10 minutes to expand in our new environment.
    Both servers are running BPC 5.1 SP5 patch 1

    The SQL Server version is very good and the performance problems should not come from there.
    Please make sure you check the document from sd regarding
    SAP_BPC_Performance_Tuning_Guide.doc to be sure you have the right configuration for OLAP and SQL and also application server.
    Can you please provide an information regarding what kind of configuration do you have into this multiserver environment?
    It is important also nr. of processors and memory for each server.
    Do you have a maintenance plan for your SQL server database?
    If you don't have that can cause again a big problem regarding performances.
    Please run into management studio exec sp_updatestats for you database to be sure that you have at least update statistics.
    So all these things mentioned before should be managed carefully to be sure that you have good performances into system.
    From application point of view make sure that you schedule lite optimize to be sure that you don't have more than 40000 rows into wb table.

  • Performance Manager  and Data Gatherer

    Hello,
    I am looking for some basic info (I think). I have been using the EM Console - standalone for some time now but would like to use the diagnostic pack and Performance Manager. Can this be used in a standalone configuration or do I need to buy Enterprise Manager? If it works in a standalone configuration and I do not need to buy it, could you point me in the direction of documentation on how to start the data gatherer on my 9i database on AIX 5?
    Thanks,
