Properly and accurately calculating application cache settings

Hello everyone.
We are running Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.1 and one of the dataforms we have set up is quite heavy (it includes several DynamicCalc members with considerable ammount of scripting) and it fails to load from time to time, just saying "Cannot open dataform X. Check logs" and such.
I have tried to increase cache sizing in the databases of the Essbase application (right clic on each database > edit > properties > caches), as well as buffer sizes and commit blocks.
Little by little I have managed to improve performance by modifying the above mentioned caches (it crashes less often), but still I guess it's nuts to infinitely increase caches to make sure it works.
So, my question is: Is there a way to calculate the accurate cache settings for a given application?
My current settings are:
Buffer size: 200 KB
Short buffer size: 200 KB
Index cache setting: 30720 KB
Data file cache setting: 61440 KB
Data cache setting: 51200 KB
Commit blocks: 30000
Do you think these are accurate?
Thanks a lot,
G.S.Feliu

You haven't really provided enough information to be honest, for example are you running a 64bit system?
But that is rhetorical, as usual the first port of call is the DBAG. I don't see why a link should be posted, you must have access to it already if you're administering a production system. That will point out things like that the Data file cache setting is only relevant if Direct I/O is being used and that the index size should be at least as big as the file if memory allows.
Commit blocks....is interesting, personally I have set it to 0 in some projects and seen some improvement but as usual testing is the key.
However their is a performance tuning guide out there that you may find very useful:
https://blogs.oracle.com/pa/entry/epm_11_1_2_epm1
that focuses on the infrastructure a bit more. Bit complicated though and I would thoroughly recommend recording a set of benchmarks before applying any of those changes, and applying said changes one by one or you'll never know what is good and what is not so good.
Learn from the pain others have already endured ;-)
Good Luck

  • Cache settings in BI7. Data still not displayed correctly in RSRT

    Good day
    Please assist? I did scan SDN for a similar problem and did check the CACHE settings in RSRT etc.
    My problem is: If I check the data in the DSO, then the updated information that was loaded yesterday is displayed. When I run the query, it does not display the last loaded information. I have run the query in RSRT and the updated information does not display either. I have changed the cache properties of this query to different settings already, and running the query from RSRT, with no success.
    I also checked the query itself (design) It is not restricted to anything. User selects 0CALMONTH as variable only. I have logged out and in again after each Cache setting, no success of displaying the updated DSO information.
    Can anyone please tell me why the query does not pick up the latest information from the DSO?
    Thanks in advance.
    Cj

    Hi Cj,
    Is the last request marked as Ready for Reporting? This needs to be the case before the latest data comes up in the query.
    Hope this helps!

  • Photoshop CS6 is not installing properly and i am unable to locate the application

    HELP ME!!!! My trial Photoshop CS6 is not installing properly and i am unable to locate and open the application on my mac. I am just going around in circles from file to file and back to the starting "intall" icon

    I am on the Adobe Download Assistant. It was stuck at "less than a minute" for an hour and a half, showing that the installation was basically done, since the installation bar was full.  But it was stuck.  Now it has stopped all together, and is restarting the download from scratch.
    Apparently it does not save the download, or only saves a small portion.
    c:\adobe/CS6MasterCollection/MasterCollection_CS6_LS16.7z.adadownload
    It is at 85.6 MB, even though a short time ago it was close to 99.9% done with the 6,352 MB download.
    My internet connection is fine, all is working, and I am able to browse, etc.
    I have been careful to keep activity minimal on the computer, so as to avoid conflicts.
    The conflicts are with the Adobe Download Assistant.
    I amabout ready to just give up, and look for alternatives.
    Please help.

    Hi all ,
    We found the solution for this issue .
    We have installed the crypto library in global executable directory and any way it will replicate those binaries to individual application servers.
    But the parameters are still looking for global executable directory for loading crypto library during time.
    So all application servers are trying to load crypto library files from global "exe" instead of local directory, which was clustered .Sometimes during  heavy network load it may cause some delays to load the libraries to individual application servers and in turn is causing the license key issues.
    Note 982056 - The license key library has not been initialized yet..

    You will need to use an external DVD drive to run the disc installer that came you your machine. You can also do it with another Mac using the Remote Install Max OS X app. Finely, if you have access to another computer, you could burn the install image on a USB thumb drive, boot from that, erase the drive and run the installer.

  • BW cache settings and WebI

    Hello,
    we're trying to tune the BW cache for WebI queries, we'd like to change the default cache settings for a number of queries, including ones used for BO universes.
    I'd like to know if this changes will be picked and used by WebI or if it is not sensitive to such changes (Cache Mode and Persistence Mode).
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hello Pablo,
    I haven't tried yet but the OLAP cache should be used by WebI when it accesses the queries. You can ensure it does in transaction RSRCACHE by looking at the last access of a cached query. Could also look at the BI stats (if you have installed them and turned then on of course).
    Regarding the cache settings, I would personally recommend using the persistent cache (across App Servers if you have more than one app server) into a Cluster table (or Transparent table if the data set is quite large). Can find more details here: http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70ehp1/helpdata/en/d9/31363dc992752de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
    You could also look into MDX cache instead of OLAP cache, but I haven't played with it yet so I'm not sure it would help with WebI. Anyone else did?
    Hope it helps...

  • CSS and JS version control is causing issues with the Application Cache.

    Hi there,
    I am creating a Web App for use on an iPad and I have been using Adobe Muse to do this.
    The Web App needs to work offline for the most part so I have been using the Application Cache in HTML5 to do this. Everything is caching correctly to the iPad (Safari Browser), however, after a while, the browser is unable to retrieve the CSS and JS complonents of the site from the Application Cache. I have deduced after much mucking around, that the HTML references to the CSS and JS files have version control stuck on the end of it. This seems to work fine when online as the version number after the ? is ignored by the browser.
    When the browser is accessing the CSS and JS files from the application cache, it appears to require the version control number as well. This is where the entire site falls over. It sometimes takes about a day of being offline but eventually, the CSS and JS files must be purged from the browser cache and then they are unable to be resolved from the Application Cache.
    This is really annoying as I am having to go through every HTML file to remove the CSS and JS version numbers.
    Does anyone know if this Muse feature can be switched off (no version controlling on JS and CSS file) or will I have to use another product such as Dreamweaver?

    just to let you know, it turns out not to be the JVM (at least directly).
    the real problem seems to be the order of loading specific dll's. I noticed that the only differences (other than the blow up) was that MSVCRT.dll was being loaded far earlier than without the dummy dll.
    I removed the dummy dll I mentioned before, and went into the project workspace properties. I moved the .lib file for the dll that was actually pulling MSVCRT in to be first in the list, then in the driver program moved the .lib file for the new dll to be first in it's list.
    Everything worked.
    I'm not sure the exact bug there, but my current thought is: The MSVCRT.dll must be loaded prior to the .NET runtime dll (MSVCRT70) or say bye-bye.

    When opening Bridge (CS6) I get the following message: "Bridge encountered a problem and is unable to read the cache. Please try purging the central cache in Cache Preferences to correct the situation" I tried and after selecting purge cache it does not allow me to select OK. Also Bridge keeps saying "Building Criteria" with the spinning wheel and nothing happens. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Please help:)

    Maybe a Preferences reset can help:
    Numerous program settings are stored in the Adobe Bridge preferences file, including display, Adobe Photo Downloader, performance, and file-handling options.
    Restoring preferences returns settings to their defaults and can often correct unusual application behavior.
    Press and hold the Ctrl key (Windows) or the Option key (Mac OS) while starting Adobe Bridge.  
    In the Reset Settings dialog box, select one or more of the following options:  
      Reset Preferences 
    Returns preferences to their factory defaults. Some labels and ratings may be lost. Adobe Bridge creates a new preferences file when it starts.
    Purge Entire Thumbnail Cache
    Purging the thumbnail cache can help if Adobe Bridge is not displaying thumbnails properly. Adobe Bridge re-creates the thumbnail cache when it starts.
    Reset Standard Workspaces
    Returns Adobe predefined workspaces to their factory default configurations.
    Click OK, or click Cancel to open Adobe Bridge without resetting preferences.   

  • SAP Webdynpro ABAP Application Caching Issues

    Hi All,
    We have developed custom applications using Webdynpro - ABAP, using FPM and accessing those applications through SAP Netweaver Portal 7.0. I have deactivated all the caching techniquies in Portal @ iview level and Page level, Portal Runtime and ContentFetch side, But still causing the same problem.
    I have a doubt, wether this is happening because of SAP Logon Caching @ SAP WAS system level. I have checked the SSO parameter settings in RZ10 Profile parameters. Our basis people have set both accept and create parameter value = 1. Is this causing issue?
    Or Is there any other settings which is required to do in Portal or SAP system level. Please let us know , really appreciate your value suggestions and help.

    Hi-
    (though the url seen in the application in se80 in the webdynrpo abap component does not have workitem id paramter)
    It is required to have a parameter WI_ID (as an Application parameter) in your WDA. And via this Application parameter WDA will receive the workitem id, when the task is exceuted from UWL (provided configuration is done in swfvisu)
    Could you confirm, there is no Application parameter (WI_ID) in your WDA?
    It picks the same workitem id everytime. I tried doing this with a couple of different user ids. but I cant figure out from where it picks this particular workitem id
    If you defined WI_ID in Application parameter and there is an option to provide value and it seems, you have defined some value over there or other way might be in your method (inbound plug), you may gave default value to WI_ID in the parameter
    If your application is working properly from UWL and for testing purpose, you could put a breakpoint and change the workitem id, when executing from se80

Inspite of deleting the cache as mentioned in the above steps, Firefox still maintains a copy of the page in it's cache. Also, a serious bug is, even though we delete all temp files used by Firefox, and open the previously cached page, it displays it correctly, but upon refreshing/reloading it again shows the previous version of the page maintained in the cache.

    We have had this issue many, many times before including on the latest 3.6 rev. It appears that when the applicationCache has an update triggered by a new manifest file, the browser may still use only its local network cache to check for updates to the files in the manifest, instead of forcing an HTTP request and revalidating both the browser cache and the applicationCache versions of the cached file (seems there is more than one). I have to assume this is a browser bug, as one should not have to frig with server Cache-Control headers and such to get this to work as expected (and even then it still doesn't sometimes).
    The only thing that seems to fix the problem is setting network.http.use-cache to false (default is true) in about:config . This helps my case because we only ever run offline (applicationCache driven) apps in the affected browser (our managed mobile apps platform), but it will otherwise slow down your browser experience considerably.

  • Application cache removed with Clear Data

    I'm developping a tool on ipad which I want to run with application cache only according Safari's "Storing Data on the Client".
    and: "Safari Client-Side Storage and Offline Applications Programming Guide"
    But I observed that the app cache is deleted with " Clear Cookie and Data" in the "Settings".
    That's not what I expected from the app cache but from "normal" caching only.
    What sense does it make if the app cache is removed the same way?
    Is there someone who has other experience with app cache and Clear Data ?
    Thanks

    O, I'm sorry, I thought this was the forum for questions like that one.
    Still I'm not an enrolled apple developer. So I think I cant' ask their forum.
    Forums there are closed like a castle at midnight.
    But the problem does not belong to iOS.
    It's simply HTML + javascript performed by Safari. Runs on any other modern browser too.
    Hm, frustrating. I have an ipad, use Safari and cannot ask the Safari folk this question.
