Planning and Reports Server

We are beggining the purchasing process for planning. We will have 235 liscened users for planning. So I am starting to look at hardware, not my strong suit. I have 50K, so I plan to get a quad with as much space as possible, typically do I need seperate boxes for the two products? I also have two fairly robust duals currently in production, one for essbase, one for analyzer. Would I be able to integreate reports into the analyzer server?? Also do most people have test environments for planning and reports??? thanks in advance..

Actually, we are running Analyzer and Essbase on the same server and reports on a seperate server. I inherited the Essbase/Analyzer configuration and since it is working well, I'm not looking to mess with it. Reports worked out well because we had just decommissioned a server that was running SpiderMan (Hyperion Enterprise Web tool) when we took Spiderman down, it freed up a perfectly good server which was already configured for Internet access. The install of reports was smoother than we could have hoped for.oh, and we do not have planning..Still using Pillar.

  • How to debug a form (servlet) in the Forms and Reports Server

    Hi:
    I have a new install of an application that ran perfectly on a different host using the Forms and Reports Server.
    I have installed the FRS on the new host and it is working fine. I can run the test form.
    When I run my actual forms app, I only get a blank screen in the browser and on the status bar it reports "Applet Started'.
    Is there a way I can turn on debugging or something so I can see at what point it is failing or why the form is not opening properly?
    Any advise would be appreciated.
    Many thanks.
    Bruce

    Thanks for the reply Frank. I have looked all through the Start menu but see no "Configuration and Migration". I assume it's because I only installed the Forms and Reports option, so I only have Forms Services, Reports Services, and the Universal Installer. No big deal - I've already setup tnsnames manually. I just like to use the Net Assistant when I can.

  • Forms and reports server characterset aix

    My database is in UTF8 mode and is displaying all characters correctly.
    However when I run a report using the forms and reports server it uses Western European Character Set.
    I have tried re-installing forms and reports server in order to fix this characterset issue, however I am not prompted for a characterset at installation time, so the forms and reports server is still set to the Western European Character Set, thus, some characters are not being displayed (inverse ?).
    I have tried specifying UTF8 for NLS_LANG in reports.sh but I only get garbage displayed.
    Can someone point me in the right direction please

    This issue has now been resolved. Changing the NLS_LANG setting in reports.sh to POLISH_POLAND.UTF8 was correct. The issue then was that greek symbols were displayed. This was a font issue and was resolved by amending a file
    $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/AFM/fontname (where fontname is the characterset you are using,eg in my case Courier ).
    the Change was to amend the line:
    EncodingSchemeProperty AdobeStandardEncoding
    to read
    EncodingSchemeProperty FontSpecific
    This fixed the problem for me , but Oracle also advise to amend the file $ORACLE_HOME/guicommon/tk/admin/Tk2Motif.rgb:
    eg change the below line from:
    !Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-2=EE8ISO8859P2
    to:
    Tk2Motif*fontMapCs: iso8859-2=UTF8 (or whatever charcterset you are using).
    Note that the exclamation mark has been removed.

    Hi All,

    I login to VCM using a Domain account for installation, and i tried to testing the DB using ODBC from the window, result fail.
    Error message as attach.
    I'm now totally lost on SQL portion.
    My Question:
    Is there any configuration needed on SQL DB?
    How to get the reporting server to working?
    What port is needed to it all working??
    VCM server Ms Win2012.

    Many thanks to all who reply.

    Hi Simonhoo79,
    For SSRS,   first check whether the report server link is accessible from your browser : "http://s01-fes-vcm1:80/ReportServer" . If you continue to get 404 error there also, then you need to reconfigure you report server first before proceeding to vcm installation. Follow the steps on below link on how to reconfigure report server using report services configuration Manager for 404 error.
    http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/75910bcb-a879-4eb7-9757-acc45201fa3a/can-not-connect-to-reportserver-http-404-file-not-found?forum=sqlexpress
    For SQL server ODBC connection,
    Dont create ODBC connection for SQL Native Client. Create ODBC connection for SQL Server.
    1. Open ODBC Data Source Administrator
    2. Click User DSN tab and Click Add button.
    3. Select SQL server and click finish
    4. Give name and description and Give the SQL server name (with instance name if your using named instance) or IP in the Server text box.
    5. Click Next and select either Windows authentication or sql authentication based on your SQL server authentication mode and click next.
    6. If the details given are correct then it will proceed further and  check "Change the dafault database to" to your VCM database
    7. Click next and finish and try test data source.
    VCM 5.7.2 and below will support installation only on windows server 2008 R2  and it doesn't support windows server 2012  but it support both 2008 and 2012 sql servers.

  • Shell script to start forms and reports server on reboot

    Does anyone have on shell script to automatically start up the forms and reports server on unix after a reboot?
    thanks much

    I also recompiled the "test.fmb" that came with the 10g Forms and Server on my windows xp machine and when I downloaded it back to the Linux Forms and Server machine, it loss the functionality of the "OK" button which is suppose to perform "exit_form" when pressed.

  • Win2K Server and Reports Server 3

    Does the following Combination will work?
    OS - Win2K Server
    Reports Server - ver 3.0
    Reports - ver 3.0
    Database - Oracle v8.1.6
    We are trying to upgrade our servers to Win2K from NT which unfortunately is running Oracle 8.0.6 with Reports Server 3.0 and Oracle Reports 3. We are planning of converting the OS and database only without upgrading the reports (due to lack of staff resources).
    My question is the above combination will work? Will Reports Server 3.0 run on Win2K? If yes, how do we set it up. We tried creating the Oracle Reports Server service but won't run.
    Any advise or pointing us in the right direction is very much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    Since Oracle Reports 3.0 has long been de-supported, this combination is not officially supported. I would recommend looking at migrating to Reports 10g:
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/reports/migration/index.html
    However, not sure if someone is using this combination currently in production environment.

  • How to connect SharePoint 2013 and Reporting Server - SQL Server 2008 - in native mode

    Hi,
    We are running Report Server on a SQL Server 2008 environment in NATIVE mode.
    We just installed a SharePoint 2013 environment. The SharePoint roles are installed on a single server and we are using a seperated SQL Server 2012 server.
    The goal: Display reports created on the Report Server in SharePoint 2013.
    The problem: I cannot get the two environments connected.
    I've read a dozen or more blogs but are currently more confused then before.
    What are the steps I need to take to connect the two environments?
    What options do I have in displaying the reports in SP2013 - do the reports need to be on the Reporting Server or can I add them to a document library... or are there other options?
    Thnx!

    Hi Sander,

  • Oracle Forms and Report Server and MS IIS Coexists in one Server

    Dear All,
    I have a Windows 2003 Server with two IPs and have IIS bind (10.1.1.20) to one IP and Oracle (10.1.1.21) bind to the other. But only one service can only run at any one time. Can someone help on how to make the two coexist on port 80 on different IP on one machine. Thanks.
    Regards,
    Kueh.

    Default settings for forms session timeout is 15 Minutes. But heartbeat parameter (default 2 minutes) doesn't allow AS to close idle sessions. So define heartbeat=20 in your formsweb.cfg file.
    As far as reports are concerned set engineResponseTimeout="15" in your report server configuration file. This setting will not allow any report to remain in the queue for more than 15 minutes.

  • Moving the Reporting Services and Report Server DB into AlwaysON Availability Group

    I have configured the new set of SQL 2012 AlwaysOn Availability Group and need to move the SSRS and it's Report Server DB into that Availability Group.
    Can anyone give tell me the steps to do this move?
    Can I just backup the ReportServer DB into the AG server then import that DB into the SSRS running on the new AlwasyOn AG SQL?

    Hello,
    Based on your description, it seems that you want to move the Report Server database to a different server. If so, both the reportserver and reportservertempdb databases must be moved or copied together. You can move the databases by using Detaching
    and Attaching or Backup and Restore.
    What's more, you should also backup the encryption keys for the report server database you want to move and then restore to the new server.
    You can configure report server databases in Always On Availability Group to be part of a replica; however Reporting Services will not automatically use a different replica for the report server databases when a failover occurs

  • How to run Net Configuration Assistant on 10g Forms and Reports server

    I have a Windows 2000 server with Forms and Reports Services installed from AS 10g v. 9.0.4 (just the Forms and Reports install). According to the OUI, Net Configuration Assistant 9.0.4 is also installed. However I cannot figure out how to run the Net CA. There is no shorcut that I can find. Can anyone help?

    Thanks for the reply Frank. I have looked all through the Start menu but see no "Configuration and Migration". I assume it's because I only installed the Forms and Reports option, so I only have Forms Services, Reports Services, and the Universal Installer. No big deal - I've already setup tnsnames manually.
