Refreshing Database From Planning

Hello,
I have three datases in my Planning application.
I am going to perform a refresh from Planning to Essbase.
Is it possible to control which database is refreshed?
- If so, please tell me how. or point me to a resource I can use as a guide.
Or do I have to refresh all three every time I perform a refresh?
Thanks,
Dave

I am a little hung up on this - so please forgive me - I think I need a bit more clarification.
I have Essbase and Planning installed on separate servers.
Application: BUDGET
Database: Sales
Finance
If I use the following command:
HspCubeRefresh.Cmd /A:<application_name> /U:<user_name> [P:<password>]
C [D] [F[S|V]][RMIPORT:<rmi_port>] [L] [DEBUG])
[R] - Specifies a refresh
[D] - Specifies the database for the refresh
So if I specify my Sales database - to me this looks like I will only be pushing my Sales metadata from Planning to Essbase.
Am I incorrect?
If I am correct - then the Finance database metadata is not refreshed from Planning - Right?
Why would the command allow me to specify a database if it is going to force a refresh of all databases in that application?
Dave,
You need not specify any database name at /D. It is just to let planning know that you want to refresh database.
You have two options when you do a refresh.
1. database
2. security filters
/D specifies that you are gonna refresh database and by default it will update changes to all databases( nothing needs to be mentioned in specific). /F specify that you are gonna refresh filters. You can use both parameters as well.
I suggest you to look at the planningweb goto administration--->manage database. This will give you a clear picture of what a Refresh does.
Hope this helps!

Error 1054013 when attempting to refresh database from planning

I get the error 1054013: Syntax error loading filters - operation canceled when attempting to refresh the database from planning. I refreshed the security filters but it did not fix the problem. Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have an idea on the root cause? Thx in advance.

HiThis is actually an Essbase issue. If you stop and start the application it shoudl stop happeningNot sure what causes it, but seems to be long filters (generally created from Planning). It would be worth speaking with Hyperion or checking on the knowledge base for any further info.I have previously cleared the security file and recreated which clears the problem. Hope this helpsAndy Kingwww.analitica.co.uk

Unable to refresh filters from planning desktop(9.2.x)

Hi
i am unable to refresh filters from planning desktop.ie when a refresh is performed i get a popup with alist of users for which the filters didnt get updated and also the application goes into locked state.
I feel this is mainly due to the existence of stale users on planning desktop.Is there any workaround,query or patch to remove the stale users(users not existing in msad) from planning desktop such that the refresh takes palce properly.
Waiting for a quick reply
Thanks and regards
krishnatilak

Hi. I had this same issue with 9.2. I found that there was a user which was no longer in the AD that was still in planning.
First thing to check is can you see the users in SS - I suspect not but worth a look. If you can, deprovision them. If you cant (most likely) you will need to use an LDAP browser to clean them out, which is a very messy process.
Best of luck.

Attribute calculations dimension is absent while refreshing database in planning app

Dear All,
I have loaded two attribute dimensions and a custom dimension called "Program" in my planning application. These attributes has to be associated with the "Program" dimension members". After loading these dimensions I tried to refresh the planning application. But it throws me the following error.
"Attribute calculations dimension is absent"
Kindly guide me to overcome this issue.
SC

I take that you are using EPMA (the fact that you were able to create an attribute dimension without associating it with a base dimension).
You'll have to create an association, to attach the attribute to a sparse dimension.
Creating Dimension Associations
You can create a property for each attribute (I usually call it as <name of the attribute>_Prop)

Have you tried restarting the services and giving it a try?
Which version of Essbase/Planning are you on?
If your Essbase server name has more than 30 characters, please use NODENAME with short server name.

Hi John,
Thanks for the prompt reply..
I checked the error code *1042006* in esb_err_msgs PDF, it showing the errors as "*Network Error message: Unable To*
*Connect To serverName. The client*
*timed out waiting to connect to the*
*Essbase Agent using TCP/IP. Check*
*your network connections.*"
But, i am getting different errors in planning. As you suggested, i checked all the member formula. Its validating fine.
I confused here, which i have to follow John...

Write VBA or cmd code to refresh essbase db from Planning app

Dear all,
Did somebody try to write code with VBA or cmd to refresh essbase db from Planning app?
OS: Windows 2003
Planning Version: 921
Essbase EAS:921
Any ideas to auto refresh essbase db from planning app?
thx

Hi
There is a CubeRefresh.cmd utility that refreshes from Planning to Essbase. You will find it in the Planning > Bin directory (the location of which varies depending upon which version you are using). Take a look at the help doc below:

Error 1054013 when attempting to refresh from planning

I get the error 1054013: Syntax error loading filters - operation canceled when attempting to refresh from planning. I refreshed the security filters but it did not fix the problem. Has anyone else experienced this or does anyone have an idea on the root cause? Thx in advance.

I remember seeing this. There is a filter that is not working. You should open the filters of the application in question and verify. Was there metadata changes (dimensions) that the filter references? This could be the culprit.

Unable to Obtain a Connection to Hyperion Essbase from Planning Application

Dear All,
I have installed FDM+Foundation+HFM+Essbase+Planning 11.1.1.3 (Tomcat)
I have stacked with the following problem:
when I try to open my data form, I am getting
“Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If this problem persists, please contact your administrator”
Validate Database Connection & Validate Essbase Connection are successful throw Manage Data Source menu
Essbase user has admin privileges
In EAS console I can make myself sure, that my application is running
Data Form is valid (verified in Preview screen in Data Form wizard)
Can somebody help me with it?
Best Regards,
Siarhei

Thanks, John
Summary
Symptoms
When attempting to connect to Hyperion Planning as the admin user, the following error occurs:
Unable to obtain a connection to Hyperion Essbase. If the problem persists, please contact your administrator'
Cause
Hyperion Planning web accesses the application by making a connection to the Planning metadata in the relational repository (via Relational repository settings) and also to Essbase via the datasource settings.
Any Essbase connection issues indicate problems with the Essbase settings in the datasource or are related to the Essbase server.
Solution
- Edit the datasource via the Configuration Utility.
- Test the Essbase connection and make sure that the user used to make the connection is valid and has admin rights to Essbase.
- Restart the Hyperion Planning service once the Essbase user has been given the correct access rights.
- Login to the Essbase Administration Services (EAS) console and right click on the Essbase server name node -> Refresh security from Shared Services
- Expand the applications node (under the Essbase server name node) and check that there is an application with exactly the same name as the Planning application.
Note: Go to section 'manually recreating a Planning application in Hyperion Essbase, if the Planning application is missing in the above step.
- Login to the application in Hyperion Planning web.
Manually recreating a Planning application in Essbase:
- Login to the EAS console as admin (the Essbase user used by admin must have Essbase administrator rights)
- Go to Essbase servers -> your Essbase server name -> right click on applications -> Create application -> Using Block Storage and enter the exact Hyperion Planning Application name then click on ok.
Note: The above step will only create the application shell without the databases.
- Login to the application in Hyperion Planning web as admin and go to Administration menu -> Manage Database -> select database and filters (to create filter access to Essbase) and Refresh (refresh will also recreate the databases if they don't exist)

Siarhei

Refresh Database

Hi All,
I have migrated hyperion 9.3.1 to 11.1.2 and i have some problem when refresh database to update essbase cube.
I have 3 db and detacted in Manage Dimension> performance setting as Plan1, Plan2, and Plan3
But when i refrash database only Plan1 created on Essbase.
Could you please let me know how to created all db from Planning To Essbase?
Thanks

When doing a refresh from Planning, all databases are refreshed.
Did you try doing a "Create" instead of "Refresh the first time? Be aware that if you have uploaded data in Plan1, it would get deleted with a Create Database. So be ready for that if you want to try this route.
Cheers,

APO- BI Datasource from Planning Area

Hi All,
I need help with APO-BI datasource generated from Planning Area.
In the Dev environment we had two clients:
DCLNT020 (Holds APO part) DCLNT010 (Holds BI workbench).
So a datasource was generated from the Planning area in DCLNT020 --> it was replicated in DCLNT010 --> data from Planning Area was extracted to BI cube using this.
Now we transported this datasource to the Test environment which has only one client (TCLNT010). I maintained the Source to target mapping there such that DCLNT020 -- TCLNT010 and DCLNT010 -- TCLNT010.
However the Transport fails and the error message is:
Cannot replicate DataSource
Errors occurred during post-handling RS_AFTER_IMPORT for ISFS L
If I go to the Test system and try to generate the transported Datasource directly from the Planning area again, it says this DataSource already exists. However I cannot see this datasource in the system even after replicating and refreshing multiple times.
Please provide your inputs as to what might be wrong and hat I need to do to solve this.
TIA
Amrita

Hi Amrita Goswami
Based on the above post it seems to be your maintain two clients in Dev one is for creation and another is for testing and when it comes to test environment your maintain only one client and maintain the DS in one it wont give any impact..
Based on the error
> +Cannot replicate DataSource+
> +Errors occurred during post-handling RS_AFTER_IMPORT for ISFS L+
There could be two reasons
1) Needs to replicate the data source once you have imported it to test environ ment and than ran the program "RSDS_DATASOURCE_ACTIVATE_ALL" by giving the name of the source and DS name if its BI 7.0
If its 3.x then have to execute the program :"RS_TRANSTRU_ACTIVATE_ALL" By specifying the transfer structure name.
2) RS_AFTER_IMPORT in some cases its because of improper transport of the update rules.
Solution would be recollect the transport and release the DS transport first and execute the ( 1)Activities and then transport the remaining._
Hope its clear a little..!
Thanks

***Even if you have nothing, you can get anything.
But your attitude & approach should be positive..!****

Error from EAS - "refreshing security from Shared Services failed"

Hi,
I was using Native only security in HSS for Essbase 11.1.1.3 and EAS allowed me to Refresh security from Shared Services. (Essbase security was already externalized to HSS.)
However, after I added "MS Active Directory", and provisioned a MSAD user to a native Planning group, EAS errors out with "refreshing security from Shared Services failed" .
I checked Essbase security and that MSAD user is not added to Essbase.
From Essbase Log I see:
Essbase failed to get roles list for [ESB:Analytic Servers:servername:1] from Shared Services Server with Error [32:1062:Failed to connect to the user directory [ HSS'sMSADname].
I then tried to remove MSAD from our H Shared Services and see if this problem goes away. However, MSAD still shows on the left panel menu in H Shared Services. How can I get rid of MSAD?
Any suggestions?
Edited by: user643332 on May 12, 2010 12:05 AM

Hi,
Are you sure you have removed it from shared services, you may have just disabled it.
You must restart the shared services application server to apply any changes made.

Refresh database and another is create database

Hi All,
In the Hyperion planning under the administration menu there are two option, one is refresh database and another is create database.
Is there any way to hide/delete or not give the access to users of ”create database” option? I mean other than admin I don’t want any users to see “create database option” once they login.
Thank you

There is no option to hide the create database button, but the good news is the planning users won't be able to see that option anyways. Due to the provisioning, only Admins have access to the Administation Menu.
Cheers,
Mehmet

Issue with member move, change or delete from Planning web application

Hi
We need to make some basic editing (move, change or delete) of level 0 members of the cost center dimension from Planning web application instead of from essbase database outline. But everytime, we tried from the web Admininstration/Dimension drill down and did a Cut or Delete of a base member, the screen either becomes blank or hangs. And we would have to stop and restart the Planning web application server to bring it back.
Is this a bug or is there something we missed? We are using Planning 4.0.1 and essbase 7.1.1. Any advice on workaround is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hi,
Have you tried running the planning server in the foreground from the start menu and check the output to see if there are any issues.
Also it might be worth trying to increase the java heap size, maybe you have a complex hierarchy and this is causing the heap size to max out.
Have you tried using another method to make changes to the hierarchy such as HAL ?
Cheers
John
