Post BI7 Upgrade Task

All,
Srinivas provided a really good info (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/wiki?path=/display/bi/upgradefromBW3.XtoBI7.0+%28SP13%29) on the Post-BI7 Upgrade Task:
1) Activating the Internet Communication Manager
2) Converting Web objects
3) Conversion of Chart Setting
4) new standard template for Ad-Hoc Analysis
5) Activating Hierarchy Version
6) Activating of Source System and replication of all Data Source
7) Setup BEX History

Post-upgrade tasks for OWB 10g Release 2

Hi,
we're planning to upgrade from OWB 10.1.0.2 to 10.2.x.
Now, I'm trying to get a clear view on what will be the "post-upgrade" tasks, in terms of manual adaptations, corrections, etc. to get everything back up and running after the upgrade ...
E.g. : by means of test al already exported a dimension, and imported it in the 10.2 repository ... Turned out that in the pre-10.2 version, there were no validation problems, but as from 10.2 (although the upgrade and import were successful), I got 19 warnings and 2 errors ... because each level needs to have a business or surrogate key ...
It' s things like that I'm especially interested in, in order to determine the workload after the upgrade ...
So, feel free to share your experiences ; I'm looking forward to read them!
Thanks!
Grtz.

Here are some from my list. I stopped maintaining it a while ago, we have lots more where this came from. Some of it also apply to older versions of OWB.
Key lookup     You are to choose input and output attributes BEFORE being able to choose loookup table, all in a time consuming wizard
Expressions     Copy and paste into expression editor, validation fails for expressions using lowercase (such as "upper" or "substr")
Renaming attributes     Not possible anymore, you need to open details
Adding a table component     You must browse in a tree structure (time consuming), not search functionality anymore
Import     Import converting from 9.2 hangs after 15% in about 10% of all imports
Import     Some mappings are not possible to import, a total rewrite is necessary
Deployment     You can only deploy about 5-10 times before you need to restart OWB
Memory leak     If something goes wrong in OWB, memory is never cleared - JAWAW.exe needs to be removed manually from memory
Import     Importing mappings one by one (as this is sometimes needed due to OWB), the last directory used is OF COURSE not default when importing the next time
OWB GUI / mapping editor     When working with components in the mapping editor, an object hidden behind the object you are actually working with is selected prior to the object in visual focus to the user
BUG!     Urgent: CASE - wrong generated Code
ANSI JOINS     Remove ANSI-SQL from mapping configuration, otherwise (+) outer joins will not work
Transformations     Not possible to enter a transformation such as "sysdate", you must find it in a huge tree structure list (no search available)

Post Upgrade Tasks

Hello,
Recently we upgraded our E-Recruiting 3.0 SP12 system to SP15 (13,14,15). Does anyone know of where I could obtain notes on post upgrade tasks? i.e. things to check, activate, etc.
Thanks!
Ryan

Best practice for upgrading task definition without deleting task instances

best practice for upgrading task definition in production system without deleting or terminating task instances
If I try and update a task definition with task instances running I get the following error:
Task definition 'My Task - Add User' may not be modified while there are active task instances
Is there a best practice to handle this. I tried to force an update through the console but that didn't work. I tried editing the task from the debug page and got the same error.

1) Rename the original task definition.
2) Upload the new task definition with the original name.
3) Later, after all the running tasks have timed out, delete the old definition.
E.g., if your task definition is "myWorkflow":
1) Rename "myWorkflow" to "myWorkflow-old-2009-07-28"
2) Upload the new task definition as "myWorkflow".
Existing tasks will stay linked to the original (renamed) workflow definition.
New tasks will use the new definition.
As the previous poster notes, depending on the changes you are making, letting the old task definitions stay active could have bad side-effects and might be better avoided.

Citrix is not working post Yosemite upgrade

Post the upgrade to Yosemite, my citrix application is not opening. I am being asked to install Java application everytime I boot even though I have installed. Not sure if both are related. I need citrix application to connect to my work. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks.

Since I am not familiar with the application, I am answering assuming that the Java issue is connected to the application problem.
Are you sure you have Java installed? An upgrade of OS X to a new major version, such as Mavericks to Yosemite, will delete at the very least the functional components of all Java installations (likely for security and/or compatibility concerns).
If you are sure, which Java do you have installed, and what is the nature of the Java install message?
Some applications on OS X still require the Java 6 runtime supplied by Apple which is now considered 'Legacy Java'. It is a seperate install to Oracle's Java, and as such installing Oracle's Java 7 or 8 will not dismiss the message to install the Legacy Java.
There are some convoluted methods involving the terminal to 'force' legacy dependent apps to recognise the Oracle Java. These procedures are not recommended, as they may cause problems with the applications.

Issue with Bulk Load Post Process Scheduled Task

Hello,
I successfully loaded users in OIM using the bulk load utility. I also have LDAP sync ON. The documentation says to run the Bulk Load Post Process scheduled task to push the loaded users in OIM into LDAP.
This works if we run the Bulk Load Post Process Scheduled Task right away after the run the bulk load.
If some time had passed and we go back to run the Bulk Load Post Process Scheduled Task, some of the users loaded through the bulk load utility are not created in our LDAP system. This created an off-sync situation between OIM and our LDAP.
I tried to use the usr_key as a parameter to the Bulk Load Post Process Scheduled Task without success.
Is there a way to force the re-evaluation of these users so they would get created in LDAP?
Thanks
Khanh

The scheduled task carries out post-processing activities on the users imported through the bulk load utility.

Error Msg: SQL login failed for HOSTNAME? Upgrade task?

Hi everybody,
Since some weeks we see an error message in all servers our SharePoint 2010 SP1 Farm, regulary every hour:
SQL database login for 'SharePoint_Config' on instance 'sqlsrv' failed.
Additional error information from SQL Server is included below.
Login failed for user 'OURDOMAIN\SERVERNAME$'.
The interesting part is that the
server tries to connect to the SharePoint Config database, not a dedicated account, which is normally used for every SharePoint service.
What circumstances can lead to an access of a server?
Unfortunately I get no details of the service or application which is trying to access. The event log just states "SharePoint Foundation (Microsoft-SharePoint Products-SharePoint
Foundation)" , Task Category "Database". The user who raises the error is "SYSTEM".
In the ULS log I can find the Stack Trace below which indicates to an upgrade task. But why is the SYSTEM user trying an update? Normally we do an upgrade by running the Upgrade Wizard with an dedicated account. And only the SharePoint Administration
windows service runs as Local System.
And I never heard or read something like: Give Local System (so the server) access to the SharePoint Config database?!
Thanks for your ideas :-)
Benjamin

It will need to add user ‘NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE’
to your database to get rid of this problem.
An asp.net application is running under NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE account.
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2806438/login-failed-for-user-domain-machinename
NETWORK SERVICE and LocalSystem will authenticate themselves always as the correpsonding account locally (builtin\network service and builtin\system) but both will authenticate as the machine account remotely.
If you see a failure like Login failed for user 'DOMAIN\MACHINENAME$' it means that a process running as NETWORK SERVICE or as LocalSystem has accessed a remote resource, has authenticated itself as the machine account and was denied authorization.
Typical example would be an ASP application running in an app pool set to use NETWORK SERVICE credential and connecting to a remote SQL Server: the app pool will authenticate as the
machine running the app pool, and is this machine account that needs to be granted access.
When access is denied to a machine account, then access must be granted to the machine account. If the server refuses to login 'DOMAIN\MACHINE$', then you must grant login rights to 'DOMAIN\MACHINE$' not to NETWORK SERVICE. Granting access to NETWORK SERVICE
would allow a local process running as NETWORK SERVICE to connect, not a remote one, since the remote one will authenticate as, you guessed, DOMAIN\MACHINE$.
If you expect the asp application to connect to the remote SQL Server as a SQL login and you get exceptions about DOMAIN\MACHINE$ it means you use Integrated Security in the connection string. If this is unexpected, it means you screwed up the connection
strings you use.

Difference in risk analysis results post sp upgrade

Hi Team,
Recently we upgraded our GRC component in dev box to SP level 14. We reactivated the BC sets and ran all sync jobs.
Now the risk analysis results are very different from the non upgraded system.
Do we need to activate BC sets post SP upgrade ? Also how will be the latest rule sets released by SAP imported into the system ?
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Anil

Hi,
Isn't ANALYZE outdated for R12?
You may still use the Analyze command in 11g Database (R12 is application version), and is not obsolete.
Please refer:
Analyzing Tables, Indexes, and Clusters
Ask Tom &quot;analyze in 11g ,not obsolete?&quot;
How would this resolve the issue?
If the optimizer is not updated with the latest statistics in database, then the COUNT(*) will not be updated and as a result the count will be showing a lower value.
I suggested you to perform an analyze or gather schema statistics in order to eliminate probable cause for the issue.
Thanks &
Best Regards,

PCD 10.5 upgrade Task Unified CM Upgrade file not found

Hi,
I have upgraded PCD from 10.0.1 to 10.5.1.10000-6.
Now i want to config na upgrade task to upgrade CUCM 10.0.1 to CUCM UCSInstall_UCOS_10.5.1.11901-1.sgn.iso but when i do browse in task for
Unified CM Upgrade it appear after some seconds popup window saying The Page cannot be updated. Files not Found.
But if i go to PCD SFTP Datastore menu i can see file is there in upgrade folder also i have tried with a firmware file for exemple and problema is the same.
Regards.
MC

Hi Manish , thanks for the reply
So I switched back to 8.6.2SU2 and then re ran the Upgrade.Switched back to 10.5 and waited.It took about 30 mins but eventually everything came up.Rebooted again to check , and it came up much quicker so that seems to be the way it is.
"Did you take a backup of the newly upgraded 10.5 and then edit its hardware settings followed by a restore?"
Glad you bought this up as I understand that the reason behind this is to align the partitions.I checked my 8.6.2 before istarted the upgraded, using the TAC approved method which said they were aligned
After the upgrade 10.5 reported the partitions aligned.The OVA readme talks about changing the OS NIC etc , which I did .Are there other reasons why I would now need to do a back and restore ? if my partitions are aligned?

Pre-Upgrade Tasks

Hi Experts
My client is planning to execute a 782 SIA to 8.1.1.x SIA Siebel Upgrade and as a part of initial pre-upgrade tasks we have following queries.
1 Lots of custom columns created on EIM Tables.Being known the fact that all the EIM tables dropped and recreated with vanilla schema ,please let us know how to preserve the custom extensions done on the EIM tables as a pre-upgrade step.
2 We have ENU as primary and 4 other Global languages deployed on both Application and database and planning to execute the Multilingual upgrade for all the langs at once.Any pre-upgrade tasks with respect to the Multilingual setup.
3 Please list the obsolete tables for the above upgrade path and also any handy sql query to identify the custom columns and indexes on these obsolete tables to preserve the date.
Thanks in Advance.
RR

Hi,
Your understanding of the upgrade is not correct. As long as your X columns are in Siebel Tools they will be there after the upgrade. Promise.
The steps for the ML upgrade are all in Bookshelf for you to read. You will need to install the all LEP's before attempting to run the upgrade. There is also a step to make sure you LOVs correctly reflect your languages with no missing languages or extra languages.

Upgradation tasks - urgent!!!!

hi folks,
can anyone help me in understanding the upgradation tasks or process in SAP ABAP with some examples.
thanks
Vinu

About differences between 4.5b and 46c, you will see major differences in some business processes. 46c is th enjoy release of r/3 where there are a lot of transactions that use frontend gui controls, like trees, text containers, docking containers, etc. Some transactions like Me21 have been redesigned in transaction Me21N. You can still use ME21, but the new version has a lot more stuff to it. The business object is still the same, just a different front end.
As for unicode, I would suggest doing a search on SDN for "unicode". There should be a lot of info.

IPhone 3GS post iOS6 upgrade...

Hello!
Today, I upgraded an iPhone 3GS which I preserve as an "iPod" for the children.
Well, post the upgrade the original charger simply will not be accepted!?
A respective message appears on the screen whenever I plug it in!
The same stands if I plug the original charger of the "3GS", to my "4"...
The iPhone 3GS charges perfectly well with any other "later" charger...
"Weird" or not?
Definitely weird and frustrating (because it renders the original charger as obsolete).
If this result had been known by Apple in advance, then the implementation as such was rather arbitrary.
