Reboot of Essbase server

Every week we shutdown and startup Essbase (5.0.2 p14) but the machine (IBM RISC 6000 4cpu AIX 4.3.3 O/S) is rarely rebooted. During heavy usage periods we notice that Essbase does go down and we will on occasion reboot the machine and Essbase seems to be fine. Do anyone have any recommendations as to how often a hard boot should occur for the Essbase server? Thanks in advance. Frank Calandra

Hi Rinku-
Thank You. The details of the issue are provided below. This is especific to windows essbase environment.
We do the export/import reset etc to remove fragmentation and all the other good stuff as mentioned in the dbag, But even then once in a while the system would behave weird -
1. The export would start but never complete.
2. Excel retrieves would go on for ever, which other wise would be quick.
3. Calc's would just run for ever, which other wise complete soon.
so on....
The log's (essbase and app and windows) do not show any error, the memmory utilization is normal and the cpu is not high either.
If stop/kill the hung process (kill the pid) and start again, it may complete but will re-occur after a sometime (hrs).
If you stop and retstart essbase service and re run the process.......it may complete but will re-occur after a sometime (hrs).
But if the windows box itself is rebooted, the issues seem to be resolved for some days/weeks till it surfaces again.
I read somewhere (and can't find it now) that Hyperion on windows has memmory leak issues.
Does anyone else see a similar trend on windows environment and observes that periodic reboot of windows keeps the hyperion processing happy and smooth for a while?
Thanks
NS

  • Essbase server blinks and dissapear

    i All,
    I am using 9.3.1 version on windows 2003 server. Today When I tried to start my essbase server it just blinks and dissapears, and not starting. I even rebooted couple of times but turned no luck. Any body faced this problem before?? Please let me know what steps I need to take to get my essbase server up.
    Ragards,
    Assini

    Hi John,
    Thanks a lot....the essbase server pops up now and i am able to give the password after following your steps.
    Before adding your steps I just tried to register the essbase server as windows service from configuration utility and it was succeded. I was even able to login to console and access my applications.
    At that time i didn't have any problem with the environment variables which you have suggested. After that I stopped the service and followed your steps and started essbase server from Programs->Hyperion.......where the window pops up.
    Before adding your steps I checked that there was a variable with name as below:
    ARBORPATH: D:Hyperion\Analyticservices;D:\Hyperion/common/EssbaseRTC/9.3.1
    One more thing is that I was able to start essbase from Programs-.Hypeion....... before without any problem.
    Why this sudden behaviour???
    Please advice.
    Regards,
    Assini

  • Problem with the SQL Data Source (Essbase server in Unix Env)

    I too have the same problem.
    I have setup the Datasource for an Oracle db in the Essbase Server (which is on a Unix Box) using the Oracle Wire Protocol.I tested the ODBC connection in the Server and it connect with the credentials.
    But if i choose the same DSN in the EAS and try to connect i get the below error
    Error: 1021001 Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server.
    I even downloaded a document from the Oracle site.. on the SQL interface in Essbase but i could not find the inst-sql.sh file to enable Essbase SQL Interface on the server. Is this required??
    I tried with both the User & System DSN on the server but no luck.
    Any help on this will be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.
    Posting in a new thread since the old one is answered and no points available to score.

    It can depend on the version, it is different for version 11, further information :- How to define a relational data source in (odbc.ini) V11 Essbase?

  • Smartview 11.1.2.2.300 Essbase Server & APS Compatibility

    We want to add LRO's to data cells, but we can't get it working. As stated in the thread title, we use Smartview 11.1.2.2.300 and Essbase Server 11.1.2.1.00.
    The core of the problem is that the 'Linked objects' button in the Essbase-ribbon in Excel can't be clicked somehow. Every function of Smartview is working fine, just the Linked Objects function doesn't work. Do we have to enable this function on the Essbase Server-side, or can we fix this problem in another way?
    Thanks in advance!
    Edited by: AsjenW on Oct 15, 2012 4:58 PM

    I've discovered that the other functions of the latest Smartview release also don't work. Our guess is that Essbase Server and APS also need to be updated. The question is: to which version? Which patches should be applied, does anybody know that?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Error while adding essbase server(V9.3.1)

    I am sure that I am giving correct credentials as I did it couple of times.I just added the essbase server as LOCALHOST and username as ADMIN and password as PASSWORD and confirm password as PASSWORD.I am not sure where I am making mistake.or Do I need to configure anything after adding the ADMINISTARTION SERVER through CONSOLE.
    Please let me know if you have any idea on this.
    Thanks in Advance..

    Hi Sandeep,
    Yes,While configuring essbase server,it has asked me to provide userid and password twice.
    First time:
    By default it came with userid as hypuser.But i changed it to essadmin(This is the user which i have created in database specifcally for essbase).
    Second Time:
    After the above step is completed ,when i click next,It was asking the for userid.By default it came with admin.I left it as it is and provided password as password.
    After this it took several mins to configure and finally came out successfully.
    Now my doubt is that Do I need to provide essadmin(which i have given while configuring essbase server) while adding essbase server through CONSOLE?.
    Thanks.

  • Cannot add a New Essbase server into the EAS Console

    Hi can someone assist me...........
    I have installed Essbase on a new / additional server (that all went rather well, its not hard just pressing NEXT, NEXT, NEXT).
    I then used a essadmin account to configure, i have to say its not the same as the other essbase server (so i am wondering if this was the start of my problems)!!. I did not use the same essadmin as the password is unknown its not known and the orginal installation was not recorded. I do however know and used the admin account for the shared services.
    I then logged into EAS Console (single instance of the EAS, with a plan to add 3 new essbase servers to this console over the next couple of days.) i added the new essbase server, then externalised and all was happy with the world. SUCCESS :-)
    I closed EAS, and went back in and thats where the fun started, it then stated that it could not connect and i recieved the invalid login message in essbase. I have read some forums and followed the advise of going into Shared Services and manually removing the new essbase server registry under projects, cleared down and replaced the essbase.sec file etc etc to the originals and stop/started the services.
    So can anyone help on what my next steps should be?, I don't want to run off and re-register again via the console for shared services if i need to use the original essadmin password in my configuration. Any help will be gratefully recieved.

  • Unable to expand Essbase server in EAS console

    Hi All,
    I have recently installed and configured Oracle Hyperion EPM Essbase 11.1.2.2 in a distributed virtual environment (One Foundation/WLServer VM, One Essbase VM, One Oracle11g DB VM). Host OS: MS Win server 2008 x64 (SP1).
    I am using Native Directory for authentication.
    I am able to login and connect to the Essbase Administration server in the EAS console. But when I try to expand the Essbase server in the EAS console, the Hy9Seas.exe process gets crashed in the background (Hyperion Admin services - web application service stops).
    Here's the error log from the WebLogic EssbaseAdminServices server log:

    I am able to log into Essbase server via MaxL shell (essmsh.exe).I have checked out all the logs on Essbase server, they are fine. The Hyperion Shared Services console is working fine as well.
    I have tried to increase the Maximum message size & POST timeout to maximum in WLServer. I have also removed firewall from all the ports of the VMs. But nothing seems to work.
    I went through other such cases of this error on OTN, John Goodwin's blog and internet but I could not find a conclusive solution anywhere.
    Can some one please help me figure out where the problem might be? Point me to some logs?
    Thanks & Regards,
    Ishan

    The error "<Internal error: java.net.SocketException: socket write error: Connection aborted by peer...." can be ignored as it is common message.
    It might be worth checking out the EAS patches because I think some of them address problems with EAS crashing, also if you are using the web console make sure a supported java version is being used.

  • Common components install fails for Essbase Server in a distributed environment.

    Hello all, I am trying to install essbase server(V 11.1.2.3) on Red hat Linux 6, 64 bit. Have already installed Foundation Services on Windows 2008. Nothing has been configured yet. On the Linux install, the install of the common components fails. I have looked around in the forums and also in Oracle Support(Doc ID 1360561.1) and looks like it is a known issue. There is discussion that this is because of a few rpm's missing on the linux server. However I could not find a definite answer as to what exact package it was or if it actually is a rpm issue in the first place. Could someone please throw light on what exactly is causing the issue and what exact package is required. Thanks.

    Thanks,

    It will be because OCM is 32bit and requires the glibc 32bit packages.
    Try running
    yum install glibc-devel.i686 glibc.i686

  • Network error since moving Essbase server into new VLAN

    We just moved a Solaris zone containing an Essbase server into another VLAN and now I am seeing strange problems with network timeouts. When EAS runs "query database" commands in MAXL (when you click on a database, for example), it can hang for ten minutes and then timeout. If I run this locally on the server via essmsh:
    MAXL> query database <Db> get estimated size;
    I get, after ten minutes:
    ERROR - 1056213 - message from server [Network error [145]: Unable to connect to [chr7z037:1423]. The client timed out waiting to connect to Analytic Services Agent using TCP/IP. Check your network connections. Also make sure that server and port values are correct].
    THe server isn't down and I can connect to it via EAS and HSS.
    I am not sure what service is reporting this error - must be APS or HSS (which run on a seperate windows box)?
    Also EAS data previews are painfully slow and/or timeout with the same network error as above.
    The essbase server is in HSS mode.

    Hi Philip,
    As CL said ,even I had faced the similar issue. In our case , it was the concept of DMZ ( they were in 2 different DMZ's ) and not able to communicate and gave the error ( which you mentioned in your post).
    Try to open up the ports ( Try to telnet also to check)

  • Error connecting to Essbase Server when running business rules

    We recently migrated from v9.3 to v11.1.1.3. I have two users with Administrative access who need to run business rules on a native Essbase application, but cannot. They get the message 'Error connecting to Essbase Server'. They get this message when trying to set this execution database. They can't even expand the server to see the list of applications. I have tried deprovisioning them in Shared Services, refreshing security, then adding it all back in and refreshing again, but it doesn't work. My own id has identical access to that which I'm granting them, and I have no problems. I even created a native user with the same access and it works as well. No matter what I do, I cannot get these two users to be able to run their business rules in EAS.
    We also have a Planning application, and the Planning Administrative user has the same issue. However, this user is able to get around it by running rules using the Planning connection rather than the Essbase connection. She has the same issue of not seeing anything under the Essbase Servers when trying to set the execution database though.
    In version 9, we were not using Shared Services for Essbase security. Unfortunately our consultant chose to set it up using Shared Services security when migrating, and according to the documentation, one cannot go back to using Native Essbase security.
    I also tried running the Externalize Users wizard and the three users with issues failed to externalize. My own id did, and the native user I created succeeded.
    Has anyone experienced an issue like this or have any ideas on how to resolve?
    Thanks,
    Sabrina

    Follow up - Oracle has finally resolved this. It's so simple, yet no one thought to check until now. The three users with problems all have mixed case user id's in ldap. They have always logged into EAS with all lower case ids. In version 9, on native security, this was never a problem. But in version 11 using Shared Services (not sure which factor changed it), it doesn't work. The simple solution is to log in with their exact mixed case user ids. It only took Oracle three months and the creation of a bug issue to figure this out for us.

  • Not able to get Essbase Server list in Office with Smart View 11.1.2.1

    Anybody tried Shared Connection in Smart View 11.1.2.1? I am able to connect to but it does not show any servers in the non editable drop-down box. I tried this with Office 2003 sp3, Office 2007 and office 2010 but none of them is working. Also i tried to find out the datasourse.xml file in LWS-aps in shared services console but its not there. i tried the solution given on this link also but the datasourse.xml file is not in place.
    http://timtows-hyperion-blog.blogspot.com/2011/04/smart-view-private-connection-issue.html
    my Environment.
    Win 2003 SP2 32 bit
    SQL 2005 on separate windows box
    EPM 11.1.2.1
    Shared Services
    Essbase Server
    Essbse Client
    Essbase Integration
    Provider services
    Essbase Studio
    Configured all of the above components successfully.
    i'm connecting to Essbase through this URL http://<server>:19000/workspace/SmartViewProviders . it shows the login window and allow me to get in. but the drop down box is empty. no server listed.
    Please let me know what I'm missing.

    I am also getting same problem as gaurav,
    I checked,"http://<servername>:13080/aps/SmartView" Analytic Provider Services also running.
    instead of Server name i tried localhost, ip address, and computer name.
    but still not getting anything in drop down, even "Add New Server" Option also.
    I thought this may be because Analytic Provider Services was configured after Shared Services. But for that i followed the steps:
    1. Stop the Analytic Provider Server and Foundation Services.
    2. Open the EPM System Configurator through Start -> All Programs -> Oracle EPM System -> Foundation Services -> EPM System Configurator.
    3. Expand Hyperion Foundation and only tick the option 'Deploy to Application Server'
    4. Click Next through the Configurator until complete.
    5. Restart the Foundation and Analytic Provider Server Services.
    6. Open Excel, connect to the Shared Connections.
    But problem Continuous.
