Remove database fragmentation in Essbase

Hi,
Somebody guide me which is best option to remove database fragmentation in essbase at Production server.
I see Average clustering ratio is -> 0.5 which i think should be higher.
Option which i know:-
export data (all) > clear database > load data again.
Regards
Kumar

Either a full restructure or export,clear,import data should remove the fragmentation.
Personally I prefer to export/import.
Cheers

Best Practices - Removing table fragmentations.

What is the best practices for removing the fragmentation in the tables. Does this process be used after every week month or every day.

Hi Chunm,
What is the best practices for removing the fragmentation in the tables.I monitor chained rows (table fetch continued rows), reorg with dbms_redefinition (or move to larger blocksize), and ALWAYS adjust PCTFREE to prevent future fragmentation. Read this:

Hi,
so as grid user i enter
srvctl remove db -d name1Try as OS user (typically oracle ) which DBCA was executed at moment creation of database:
srvctl remove db -d name1Regards,

Not Possible Create Database Connection to Essbase From Web Analysis Studio

Hello
It is not possible to create a database connection to Essbase cluster from Web Analysis (WA) Studio. The following error message is displayed:
"Unable to retrieve the list of available databases"
And the detail:
[1033] Native: 1003 Error: Create connection failed [For input string:
[ApsServer=, OlapServer=[HOST];]]
Foundation Services, Agent, Financial Reporting and Web Analysis are enabled.
As additional information from EAS can seamlessly connect to Essbase server.
The EPM version is 11.1.2.2
Please help. thanks
regards
Rodrigo

Hi ,
For creating a WebAnalysis database connection, please make sure you do the following :
1. Verify if you have Essbase client installed on the WebAnalysis server.
2. Check if the path of adm drivers are mentioned in the system environment variable -> PATH entries.
3. Try giving the Essbase server name instead of the cluster name when attempting to create a connection.
4. The error 1003 means it doesnt seem to create a connection with the server and while attempting it fails.
Make sure you have all the parameters mentioned correctly in the server details.
To get detailed information on what is causing the problem, make sure you stop the WebAnalysis service and start it from console .

Change the Database Name in Essbase Studio

Hi All,
Happy new year to all of you.
Is there a way to change the database name in Essbase Studio, what I can see now once we have registered a database in Database Sources panel, we can't change the Database Name because it is always grayed out but the server name, user name and password can be changed.
Actually I have mentioned this issue to our team before starting development and they proposed me the schema that I can use, but suddenly our client did not agree with it that we have been using, and then our client asked us to use another schema, FYI we are using Oracle Database as the data source.
Can you guys here share how to manage this situation.
Thanks,
Rudy

For Essbase Studio, the configuration metadata are saved as CP_tablenames, look for the CP tables, and make proper database change for the database name.
1. Make a Oracle backup for the CP tables before you change the metadata so that you can get back in case if error
2. Change the CP_CONNECTION TABLE, NAME column
3. Change the CP_SOURCE table, column DNAME, for example, it is called TBC.Sales, change to NewDB.Sales
I am not sure if there are other table also need to be updated, anyway, when you update the DBname in the metadata level, everything should be consistent in all of the related tables. Here, I assume the new db has the same table names as the old db, if the new db has very different table names, recreating everything may be easier and has less risk.

Database fragmentation

I have a question about database fragmentation.
I know that fragmentation can reduce performance in query times. The blocks are distributes
in many extents and scans process takes a long time. Oracle engine have to locate the address
of the next extent..
I want to know if there is any system view in which you can check if your table or index
has high fragmentation. If it's needed I will have to re-create, move or rebulid the table or index, but before I want to know if the degree of fragmentation is high.
Any useful script or query to do this, any interesting oracle system view??
Any advice will bre greatly apreciatted.
Thanks in advance

Hi Sybrand
Thanks for your prompt reply.
Here's abit of my current situation which I have just taken over:
Up to now my company is still using 8.1.6 for 3 identical DBs (DMT) and they are supposed to be in sync. For about every 50-60days, they will not be in sync and I will receive an alert. Past DBAs (those my senior) always reckons that the issue is due to fragmentation in any of the DBs. And they will always do a physical copy and paste of the system, datafiles to resolve the issue. Thus, the idea of 'defragmenting databases' still exist.
this, in itself, makes no sense. What defines a database not being 'in sync' with another? Exactly what situation is it that triggers this alert? The term 'in sync' could mean anything at all, but it usually has something to do with data. I've never seen it to mean anything that would be remotely related to fragmentation.
I want to change them to LMT but they are all top critcal production DBs. But I have only 1 such DB for development, not 3. One way that I could prove that LMT reduces or eliminates fragmentation is to execute the DBMS_SPACE_ADMIN.TABLESPACE_MIGRATE_TO_LOCAL procedure in those 3 top critical production DBs and hope that I will not receive an alert in the future, but this would be very very risky.
This is the reason why I need to prove and test that LMT actually works before implementing in my production. With the proof and testing that I have done, I can then confidently claim that LMT reduces or eliminates fragmentation.You are not going to be able to "prove" anything until you have a firm definition of "fragmentation" and whatever it is that you refer to as "being in sync". In the broader sense, nothing can ever be "proven" until the terms are defined and the definitions accepted by all interested parties.

Impact in removing one of 2 Essbase servers in current 11.1.2.1 platform

Hello,
Here is what I'm trying to do:
I have Essbase installed on 2 servers and thus registered in Shared Services (epm registry). However, I will need to remove one Essbase server from the current configuration.
I was thinking of uninstalling Essbase from the "unwanted" server, but will the Epm Registry be updated accordingly? will the entries for the uninstalled server disappear from Epm Registry? Or will I need to manually delete these entries?
Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
Andy

I've experienced similiar problems in multiple environments. Even the outline for Sample.Basic was locked. I just stumbled across something that corrected the problem (at least for now :) ). I opened one of my outlines, selected the "*Account*" dimension and then chose to "*sort the children of the selected member in descending order*" (menu option directly above database outline) and somehow that unlocked my outline. Not sure why that solved the problem, but it did.

How to remove an instance from essbase cluster

I installed the new Hyperion 11.1.2, and I reconfigure the essbase server, it is added to the EssbaseCluser_1, now I have set up 2 instances for this cluster. Now I want to remove an instance from the cluster, how to do it with MaxL or what ever?

DATABASEInstance and Database are different things, be careful before using this statement after 10g :)
[from-documentation]
An Oracle server consists of an Oracle database and an Oracle instance.
The database consists of physical files such as:
The control file where the database configuration is stored
The redo log files, which have information required for database recovery
The data files where all data is stored
The parameter file, which contains the parameters that control the size and properties of an instance
The password file, which contains the superuser (SYSOPER and SYSDBA) passwords
The instance consists of memory structures such as System Global Area (SGA) and Program Global Area (PGA) and background processes that perform tasks within the database as well as the server processes that are initiated for each user session.
The size and structure of an Oracle database and instance impact performance. The physical structure of the database impacts the I/O to hard disks. It is therefore important to both size and place the physical files in such a way that I/O across disks is distributed evenly and waits are minimized. The size of the various memory areas of the instance directly impacts the speed of SQL processing.

How to remove database profile in report

Hello,
We have a report right now and upon accessing it, a window asking for a Database Profile comes out. This causes the program to have additional selection parameters for Project Definiton, WBS element etc.
Before we just ran the report for Period, Year, Cost Center Group. Ever since the Database Profile appeared we now have to put * in the WBS element so that the report will run.
Anyone know how to remove the Database Profile selection? One of our users reported that this wasn't in the selection parameters and our developer said there were no changes to the report.
Are there possible reasons why the Database Profile suddenly appeared?
FYI, the report was created using Report Groups (GR51/2/3)
Thanks.

Hi,
What selection criteria you need?
Database profile is needed to access objects from Logical PS DB. You have to put at least one selection object viz. Project Definition or WBS, or Network or Activity.
Create one of your own profile as per requirements and default it in user param.
Regards,
Harsh.

Deleting/dropping/removing database using Enterprise Manager (12c)

Hi,
I have run some searches and review the documentation... but I haven't found any way to drop/remove/delete databases using 12c EM.
We have multi-instance environments (one physical server with several instances/database). And from time to time we have to remove one or more instances when they are decommissioned.
So far we are using DBCA, but I wonder if there is any way to do the same with EM "out of the box ...
Could someone point me in the right direction?
Thanks in advance,
Francisco Palomares

Hello Francisco,
the only "out of the box" methods to delete/remove a database would be:
- Create a "User defined procedure" to do the job - Checkout the "Lifecycle Management" guide in the documentation
- When using the Self Service Portal as part of the Cloud Management feature, users would be able to request for a database to be created. When requesting for a database to be created the user can also identify for what period he/she would need the database. Meaning that you can indicate the moment a database need to be decommissioned. In that case not only a Job will be scheduled to create the requested database, but also a job will be scheduled to remove the database after the indicated time frame has passed. Check for this the Cloud Management Guide.
- You could of course also think about doing this using a custom made script that you could schedule from the EM job system.
Well enough material to think about ;-)

How do I remove previous configuration of Essbase Server from Shared Services?

Hi All,
I'm trying to reinstall Essbase Server (on a new server; we've upgraded the Essbase Server hardware) and reload data but the current install believes I've already configured it despite removing EssbaseCluster-1 from Shared Services Application Groups. Is there something else I have to do to get the new install of Essbase Server configured as a new Essbase instance?
Thanks,
Ryan

I did the install as PTH0RC and my inventory.xml is configured correctly, but I get the following message trying to run a simple view

How to remove database name from SQL query

We have an MS SQL server with several databases that are of the same schema but have different data. We do this for testing different environments. We are using Crystal reports for the first time and we are having trouble changing the database location in the designer. If update the data source location to the same database server, but different database name, the data still comes from the original database used when creating the report. We look at the SQL query and it contains the database name and does not change when updating the data source. Therefore the data always comes from the database used when originally creating the report.
How can I remove the database name from the SQL query so the proper database is used when testing the report?

Hi C F
Please ensure you have followed the procedure mentioned below:
In Crystal Reports, there are two ways to set the location of the data source your report points to, depending on your connection type.
For ODBC and Native Connections:
1. On the 'Database' menu, click 'Set Datasource Location'.
2. In the 'Current Data Source' section, click the data source to be changed. You must click each individual table in the data source one by one. If the data source is a stored procedure you will not see individual tables.
NOTE In Crystal Reports 10, XIR1, and XIR2, if you are mapping from a data source such as a stored procedure where the report designer can not determine which fields should be mapped automatically, you will see a 'Mapping' dialog box where you can manually map fields, as in the procedure cited above.
3. In the 'Replace with' section, click the data source you want the report to use.
4. Click 'Update'.
5. Close the 'Set Datasource Location' window.
The report now points to the new location.
For Native Connections Only:
1. On the 'Database' menu, click 'Set Datasource Location'.
2. In the 'Current Data Source' section, click 'Properties' to expand it and right-click 'Database Name: <path to database>'.
3. Click 'Edit' and then type the path to the
new data source location.
4. Close the 'Set Datasource Location' window.
The report now points to the new location.
