RKM Hyperion Essbase Issue

Hi,
I am trying to reverse Basic database of Sample Schema.
I've created new ODI model and using the RKM Hyperion Essbase.
When i started the reverse process, the Set Metadata step of the execution is taking very long time (kind of hanging).
Actually the execution never gets completed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
VBV

Hi John,
Good to hear from you.
The Essbase is on the same server as ODI. And i'm using the local agent. I am not able to stop the Execution.
I mean it gets hung.
BTW, i'm following your blog to do these actions. Your doing a great job!!
I am new to Essbase. Actually we have a requirement, we have to load data into Essbase cube.
So i've directly started with Essbase and i'm not looking into Planning.
Thats why i have to reverse a cube and use it as a target.
Thanks,
VBV

Mostly what are issues we get for production support in hyperion essbase project ?

mostly what are issues we get for production support in hyperion essbase project ?

This seems obviously an interview question, especially since you have asked an identical question in the Planning space: mostly what are issues we get for production support in hyperion planning project ?

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)
Best Regards,
Siarhei

Multiple source columns from Oracle DB to Hyperion Essbase cube

Hi Experts ,
We have a Source as oracle table to the target Hyperion Essbase Cube(Planning) 11.1.2 using ODI 11g.
Right now my issue is We need to map multiple columns from Oracle DB to One Dimension in Essbase (Planning).
For example -> * In Oracle table i have columns as Name,Volume,unit and item *
In Essbase the dimension called "*CatDefinition has lower level members as Name,Volume,unit and item * "
Now using ODI ,* I want to map the oracle table columns(Multiple) to the dimension(Catdefinition) ? * Please suggest me with idea to achieve multiple column mapping to the single dimension in Essbase .
Thanks in Advance !
Keny Alex

Do you even need FDM? You could build a load rule in Essbase directly. If you need to map, then you would register the Essbase target adapter.

Reverse engineer error with Hyperion Essbase and Planning

We are getting the following error in ODI Operator (3rd step) when trying to reverse-engineer Hyperion Essbase and Planning models. com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot invoke a rollback operation when the AutoCommit mode is set to "true".
Our ODI repository resides in SQL Server.. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Hi Dmitriy,
You should upgrade to the latest patch of ODI available on metalink.oracle.com 10.1.3.4.4.
There was an issue in 10.1.3.4 ODI with the intial reverse when using SQL server. If you shutdown all the ODI UI's and then restart. And then reverse it should work correctly. But you have to make sure you shut down all ODI tools.
Thanks,

Changing RDBMS Server for Hyperion Essbase

Hello All,
We have installed and configured 11.1.2.2.100(Essbase, EIS, Studio, Shared Services) on Windows 2008 32-bit Server successfully.
Everything went fine and all products are working.
Now we changed the RDBMS Server for Hyperion Essbase and ran the configuration once again with new RDBMS server with "Reuse existing tables" option.
H1
| First Current
DB1 -> DB2
From that time we are unable to access the essbase server.
We were able to see the users in Shared Services. All users able to login to Shared Services, EAS but problem with Essbase.
In HSS_Component table found old server name in two places, we have updated the old DB server name to Current DB server name.
When we try accessing essbase we are getting the below error(tried with hostname, ip address, EssbaseCluster1 as Essbase server)
Network error [10061]: Failed to connect to [Server Name:1423]
Error: 103: Unexpected Essbase error 1030818
Error: 1042006: Network error [10061]: Failed to connect to [[ServerName]:1423]
Error: 1030818: Login failed. Please check if server and port are correct. If you received timeout or handshake failure,
please check if you tried to connect to secure port without secure keyword or clear port with secure keyword.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Prathap

It is extremely important that you know what you are doing before touching the shared services registry and the correct way is not to update tables, it is to use the epmsys_registry utility.
To be honest you may have screwed up the registry and that is something I am not going to get involved in, try discussing with Oracle what you have just done.
If it is only the rdbms servername changing (not the essbase server) then you should follow the instructions in the documentation - Changing the Shared Services and Registry Database Connection Information and Password

Hyperion Essbase Best Practices Document...

Hi All,
Is there any document out there that has the best practices for Hyperion Essbase development? I am looking for methodologies, naming conventions and such information. Wondering if there is any such doc with Hyperion Essbase Guru's that outlines the best approaches for Essbase-outline development with it . Searching this forum with the string "best practice" yields a lot of threads on specific issues, but couldn't find any document.
Any pointer is most appreciated.
Regards,
Upendra.

Various consulting organizations have different
guidelines, each with their own strengths and
weaknesses. To get them to cough it up without
bringing them in for a paid project might be
difficult, but not impossible.I agree with Doug here.. Many of these consulting companies have developed their best practices over a number of years and view them as a competitive advantage over the other consulting firms. I would be highly surprised if you managed to get ahold of such a document very easily.
That being said, those same consultants share information here in bits and pieces, so you can learn at least some of the best practices here (along with best practice tips from consultants/developers/customers who don't have an 'official' best practices guide)..

Is it possible to migrate from Hyperion essbase ver 6 to Hyperion Ver 11?

Hi Hyperion geeks,
is it possible that Migrate from Hyperion essbase ver 6 to Hyperion Ver 11. if yes then pls let me know how we can do it????
reg,
abhishek

Hi,
We're finishing our migration from 6.2 to 11.1.1.3.
Of course won't recommend to migrate directly... they will recommend going through different steps (v7, V9...) => useless I think.
Here what we did :
- Installed v11 (new server)
- copied objects from v6 to v11, tested and validated objects under v11
- for .sec, recreated the app/databases first then copied the v6 .sec on v11 server. Of course your server have to be installed with native securities then you may push to shared services.
- if you don't care about changing password you could handle it with maxl extracts or secman (but I had issues with secman).
Finally it's just like any migration

Problem during installation hyperion essbase

Hi everybody,
I'd like to know, if possible, the right installation step to configure Hyperion Essbase on my machine.
My operating system is Windows 2003 server, and DB is microsoft sql 2000.
Main problem is after installation of "shared services", during the "hyperion configuration utility". I can't finish the configuration because of , I receive this error message
"Registration Parameters cannot be validated succesfully. Please check that the information entered is correct".
In your opinion what's my problem ???
Thank's to every body for your help.

I've also heard of an issue when installing shared services that it doesn't recognize the hyperion home directory properly. For instance, you have ArborPath and Hyperion Home pointing to drive E, but it installs to drive C, and then changes a variable or two to point to the wrong location.
Thus:
1) verify that the system variables are pointing to the correct place
2) uninstall/reinstall if they didn't install to the same drive/location
Good Luck++

Ok,
By the way, when we talked about why the Hyperion Foundation Shared Services - Web Application does not work, I didnt realize that it was not working because the Hyperion Foundation OpenLDAP just disapeared from the services, just after I turned off and on the computer. Can you tell me just in case that situation will happen again (because it happened twice to me, after the first time reinstallation repaired this issue and everything was working, but now after second time reinstalation repaired it again but as you know essbase is not workin) what can I do to repair the Hyperion Foundation OpenLDAP instead of reinstalling the system ??
