Running MAXL on EAS changing permssion on a file that is in UNIX

Hi,
11.1.2 Essbase is running on UNIX.
I was successfully to change the permission of a file that I extracted from a cube when I ran it on unix. Here is my code that I used to make this happen.
shell chmod 766 '/hyperion/MetaData/Outbound/GL/data_extract.txt';
My question is my client would like to run the maxl script on demand. They would run the maxl on EAS. I'm having a hard time to getting this work when I run it in EAS. When I run the maxl script i'm getting "Script: ignoring command:shell chmod 766 '/hyperion/MetaData/Outbound/GL/data_extract.txt';
I'm running this shell script after that file has been dumped into that directory in unix. Is this not possible to do when running maxl on EAS? or is there something i'm doing syntax wise is incorrect?
Matt

I have just experiences the "beep, beep, beep" after a hard crash.
The computer is overheating. The RAM gets hot and everything crashes.
The system will not restart, all I get is "beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep.....beep, beep, beep"
I pulled the ram, and switched the chips around. The system is back up without a problem so far.

Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Do you have Time Machine setup to backup your hard drive? If so you can use it to recover the files.
If not you will need to use a file recovery application like SubrosaSoft FileSalvage. It lets you run the application to check the drive for files that can be recovered before having to purchase it. There are other similar applications out there also. You can go to VersionTracker.com and search for "file recovery" to get other possible apps.
There are recovery services that can do the job for you. They are pretty expensive but if you can't get the recovery application to work they are another option.
Try to use the computer as little as possible beforehand so you don't run the risk of overwriting the deleted files.

Changes in the xml file AFTER submitting to store

hi,
I recently added a Podcast for BMWGroup.com to the iTunes store, which hasn't been released yet.
What I want to know is, whether changes in the xml file, that i made AFTER submitting it will be taken over when the feeds are going to be released.
For example a different categorie or image..
and if not? how can i change categorie or image later? does it update from the xml?
does anyone know?
thx,
best regards,
oliver
thx,

Oliver:
The simple answer is yes. Any changes you make to your RSS feed file (xml file) will eventually be updated by ITMS. Usually ITMS updates feed changes within 24 hours. However, the most recent changes I made in my feed files took almost 8 days before ITMS refreshed my listing.
One issue is clear. If you make changes to your image file, there is a high probability that when ITMS updates your database record, your listing in ITMS will show the broken link image for awhile. I've changed my image file twice, and each time, my ITMS listing showed the broken link image. Eventually the new image shows up, but it does take a long time for this day and age.
Good luck!

Error running Maxl and ESSMSH Commads

Hello,
I had recently installed EAS Client while my system was getting changed from a previous one . Firstly , I was unable to enter the Maxl with essmsh command , so i had started going to the directory where startmaxl.cmd site and from there when I run it i get into Maxl shell . i was curious on how to fix this. But the main concern now is , i am trying to encrypt few passwords and while i run essmsh -gk from Maxl shell , the key is not getting recognized . Previously , before re installing EAS i had no issues on this at all . Any comments or suggestion ?
Thanks !!

I am able to run maxl commands , not a problem with that . However my main issue now si teh decryption , we can try working the other way for now . Because the maxl issue is in my local machine , i went to essbase server directly and started this encryption process.
This what it looks like :
login $key AAAAAAAAA (ADMIN ID) $key BBBBBBBBBB (PASSWORD) on Essbase Server ;
import database 'App'.DB' dimensions
connect as $key XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX identified by $key YYYYYYYYYYY using server rules_file 'A',
connect as $key XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX identified by $key YYYYYYYYYYY using server rules_file 'B',
connect as $key XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX identified by $key YYYYYYYYYYY using server rules_file 'C'
on error write to "A\\File.err";
X is the database log in ID and Y is its password which was recently changed and this script was working till then .
I followed the regular encryption process , I had to Just change the encryption keys of X and Y , the proxy ID and password are still the same . SO , i created a .simple text txt file ;
login db ID db Password,
From cmd , ran essmsh -E File name publick key
I got encrypted ID and password .
When i implemented them on the above script , the script failed to execute in the db login stage as:
ERROR - 1021001 - Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server. See log for more information. (The log just gives the same info , SQL Login failed )
ERROR - 1241101 - Unexpected Essbase error 1021001.

Running MaxL scripts

I was helping a client with automating the running of a MaxL script, using the Windows AT command, and we encountered something odd: a MaxL script that runs fine in EAS does not run correctly when invoked programmatically.This seems to occur when the script involves path references (for error file locations, etc.). Surrounding the path (which had no spaces or "funny" characters) with single quotes works in a script that is to be run from the EAS console.However, when the script is run programmatically (through a batch file, or the AT command), it seems that you have to surround paths with--get this:First: single quotes, to denote the stringSecond: double quotes (outside the single quotes), for a reason a can't quite put into wordsThird: the backslash character used in Windows path references is an escape character in MaxL, so to actually refer to a backslash, you have to use two of them in a row.So, the path used in error writing was originally written in the script like this: 'D:\Errors\DimBuild.err'...and to run programmatically, it had to be:"'D:\\Errors\\DimBuild.err'"...and the problem is, the latter example will NOT run from EAS. Has anyone else encountered this issue?Jared

I've found that to use a windows path in MAXL, I've found by trial and error that the form that works is'\\\\server05\essbase\buddb\budapp\dataload.txt'Don't know why, but the double backslashes preceding the server need to be escaped, but the subsequent ones don't. I discovered this by trial and error and carefully reading error output.And of course shell statements don't work from EAS.

Is autoconfig required to be run for apps password change

Is autoconfig required to be run for apps password change -- We are only changing APPS and APPLSYS passwords.
How to Change Applications Passwords using Applications Schema Password Change Utility (FNDCPASS or AFPASSWD) [ID 437260.1] -- does not mention anything about autoconfig.
Please clarify.
Thanks

It's mentioned in the document twice
1. For APPLSYSPUB/GUEST as you mentioned
2. Under "Verify the new password" which cover the apps/applsys passwords
If you search the doc for "AutoConfig" you will find it there.

Long running rebalance after container change

Hi,
sometime I´ll change the container design in my productive system by deletion of one range. From former times I get the system with many containers with many different sizes which have a negative impact for the system.
Now I´ve copied lot of tables in other tablespaces and will now delete some containers until I reach the high water mark.
Question is how does this influent the system during production period?
Regards
Olaf

Hi Olaf,
it depends on the system and hardware resources like CPU, storage layout, IO Adapters (when SAN is used), ... if the reblance influences the production system. When you use extent size 2 as sapinst creates the tablespaces by default it should have no negative influence on the productive system performance. When your storage layout and IO adapters are well designed and the tablespaces are created with extent size 2 and there are enough free CPUs the bottleneck will be the file where the extents are manged. (<DBPATH>/$DB2INSTANCE/NODE0000/SQL00001/DB2TSCHG.HIS).
That is my experience with the rebalance utility. We created all databases with extent size 2 and rebalance of a 300 GB runs up to 12 hours. I have tested this szenario with extent size 4, 8 and 16. Up to extent size 8 the rebalance gets a "performance boost". The runtime of the rebalance utility decreases from 12 to 2-3 hours for the same tablespace. With a higher extent size of 8 i.e. 16 the rebalance performance does not change anymore and the file mentioned above is no longer the bottleneck. I wached this in our environment. But it really depends on the system and hardware resources your database is running.
If you are want to be on the safe side do not start rebalance on different tablespaces in parallel when there are not enough free CPUs available and the storage is not striped over some ranks on the storage subsystem and there are not enough IO adapters.
This is a very general answer I think. To give a correct answer is very difficult. It also depends on your production workload. Could you describe your resources, hardware, tablespace layout (db2look -d DB -l)?

Gerhard

Running MaxL statements from client desktop

I am trying to load data into an ASO cube via a batch file / maxl process. This process works fine from the server, but I want people to be able to do this without having server access to run the batch file. The batch file loads a .mxl file that clears the database, loads two files into a buffer, and then aggregates the cube.
My problem is that the two files I need to load are level 0 extracts from two BSO cubes. When I use the following statement it isn't finding the file:
import database 'ReprtASO'.'Report' data
from server data_file 'report\report\report_export.txt'
to load_buffer with buffer_id 1
on error write to 'c:\automation\ReprtASO.err';
What shows up in the log file is the following:
MAXL> import database 'ReprtASO'.'Report' data
2> from server data_file 'report\report\report_export.txt'
3> to load_buffer with buffer_id 1
4> on error write to 'c:\Automation\ReprtASO.err';
ERROR - 1003027 - Unable to open file [D:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\app\ReprtASO\Report\report\report\report_export.txt].
I have logged into the ReprtASO cube and it is using the default path for that application rather than using the Hyperion Home starting with the app directory (D:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\app\ReprtASO\ instead of D:\Hyperion\products\Essbase\EssbaseServer\app\)
Is there a way around this? My maxl statement to create the Level 0 export out of the Report\Report (app/db) works because I don't define a path. But I can't figure out how to have it start looking at the App directory instead of at the database directory. Any ideas?
Thanks,
Richard
Edited by: rchanks on Apr 14, 2010 1:30 PM

Here's the scenario. I have users that use the Excel Addin to lock-send data into my ReportXL BSO cube. In order for them to see it in the ASO cube, I have to go out to the server and run a batch file to export the Level 0 out of the XL cube and the use it with the extract from my GL cube (Report) to load the both of them into the ASO cube. Now, whenever users are updating the database, they have to come find me. I was just trying to get them a way to update it themselves.
Here's the dilemma. To extract data out of the ReportXL cube via a client mxl statement, it can only save to that directory tree. In order to load, I need it in the ReprtASO\Report directory. I don't want to give drive access to the server... especially in the database directory (.otl, .pag, etc.). Do you have any ideas for a work around?

Running Maxl from business rule

Hi,
We have very large BSO cube and we decided to create ASO for aggregation purposes.
We were thinking of running the replicate partition with Maxl, but we want to do it at the end of every business rule.
In order to do it we want to have the possibility to run Maxl from the BR. We heard that there is a way to do so, but we couldn't find guide / tutorial / any other thing that will give the proper explanation.
We are working with 11.1.2.2
Can someone help?
Thanks,
Rami

Running maxl parallaly

Hi guys..
I am calling a number of maxl files from a unix shell script using the format:
essmsh <maxl script1> &
essmsh <maxl script2> &
essmsh <maxl script3> &
But the files are not running. Somehow the & are also getting included in the file names and hence cannot find the files.
What could be the problem? Does essmsh not support parallel script calling? Or do i have to use startmxl.sh ?

the text1.txt is the stdout from the command "cat test1.maxl | essmsh -i" Could be more appropriately name test1.log :)
Let me break down what’s going on here.
test1.maxl, test2.maxl and test3.maxl are all just text files that content maxl statements. Below is what I had in test1.maxl. You can name these files whatever you want. I really do mean whatever.
login admin password on essbase_server;
display session;
logout;
cat test1.maxl - This will take the contents of test1.maxl feed it into the next command. Another way to do it would be ' echo "login admin password on server; display session; logout" | essmsh -i ` They both get the same thing done, the cat version has the maxl stored in a text file.
the pipe "|" - this is what takes the output of cat test1.maxl and feeds it into the stdin for essmsh.
essmsh -i - from the help "Read statements from standard input. A list of positional parameters may be specified." Plain and simple, read stdin.
the ">" - send the stdout from "cat test1.maxl | essmsh -i" to the file you named.. You should look up redirecting stdout and stderr. I'm assuming most people want to create logs of the process especially if they are running them in the background.
I'm a self taught shell guy so if my terminology is off, I apologize :)
The one thing I've learned about shell programming is there always seems to be another way of doing something if your first plan isn't working. I try not to spend too much time on one solution and often hit google to see what other ways things can be done.

I have just changed over from a computer that was 11 years old, running Windows 98, to a new computer running Windows XP. With my old computer I could easily download video clips, they would open and play as soon as the download had ended. Now I have to click on the download box and click on "Play". Also, when I wanted to keep a clip, I just right clicked and a menu appeared and I would then click on "Save as" or similar. Now there doesn't appear to be any way to save the clips. Apart from a faster and more powerful computer I feel I've gone backwards. Can anyone help?

Use the trackpad to scroll, thats what it was designed for. The scroll bars automatically disappear when not being used and will appear if you scroll up or down using the trackpad.
This is a user-to-user forum and most people will post on here if they have problems. You very rarely get people posting to say there update went smooth. The fact is the vast majority of Mountain Lion users will not be experiencing any major problems with the OS, or maybe with apps which are not compatible, but thats hardly Apple's fault if developers don't update their apps.

Maxl Script will not write to error file for data laod.

Sorry Glenn here is the new thread. I re ran without the semi colon after data 3 and the same error came up without anything being written to the error file.
I purposely removed a member from the orginal outline that is included in the data loaded but yet the error file is not written to. I tried doing the load manually but executing it in the background, error file is to be created on my local HD but it does not write it there. Checked the output and it is written to a directory located on the server. Although i think this is normal.
Could it be that it will not write to a local drive? I am going to try specifying a spot on the server to see if it runs there.
thanks

Hello,
I am also having this issue.
I will include my script below but will state some details before
We are on Essbase 11.1.1.3
I am running Admin Console from my client PC that connects to the server in the script and I read that in this set up the error file will not get written to. This documentation was for v 9.1.3
Here is my script (i changed some of the names)
login 'user' 'password' on server';
create application 'Money1' as 'Money2';
spool stderr on to 'errorfile';
import database 'Money1'.'Main' data
from local text data_file 'Money1_Data.txt'
using server rules_file 'Data3'
on error append to 'dataload.err';
execute calculation 'CALC ALL;' on 'Money1'.'Main';
logout;
spool off;
exit;
here is the error output i get:
code line: on error append to 'dataload.err';
Statement executed with warnings.
(3) Syntax error near ['$']
I don't see a dollar sign anywhere in my code and the error file does not get produced.
Also do error files get written too if the actins are executed in the background?
Thanks!
Alex

This works for me in a MaxL script run through essmsh.exe:
import database appname.dbname data from local text data_file "d:\\datafilename.txt" using server rules_file "rulename"
on error write to "d:\\errorfilename.err" ;Sometimes EAS (I think you are running it through that) does weird things to MaxL. I eschew MaxL in EAS as much as possible (like 100% of the time).
NB -- the datafilename and errorfilename and their drive letters are local to wherever you're running this process through the MaxL shell. I don't know how that works when you're running EAS -- are drives local to your session, local to the EAS server? Dunno. Leave EAS behind, buy TextPad (no I am not the author of that fine product) and download the MaxL syntax library, and be happy. :)

Put the MaxL into a code block to get it to display correctly.

Why am I being told that a JPEG file that I made changes to in Photoshop 6 (CS6) can't be saved? The message I get says that either the file is locked and I don't have permission to execute this or another program is using this file.

i recently purchased a 21.5 iMac with Yosemite (10.10.1) and was disappointed to discover that my CS6 programs are not functioning correctly. I am unable to use the "Save As" command when making changes to a JPEG file in Photoshop. The message I get says that either another program is using the file or it is locked and I don't have permission to execute that command. I'm experiencing a similar problem in Bridge when trying to move an unwanted file to the Trash. Again, I get a message telling me that i don't have permission to do this. Lastly, I'm unable to open any Camera Raw files. Any suggestions? I had no problems with the Mavericks OS on my old iMac and although it's much slower, I'm tempted to go back to using my old iMac. At this point, I feel as if I've just wasted $2300+ (tax included).

Back up all data before proceeding.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership, permissions, and access controls to the default. If you've intentionally set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it, but you do need to follow the instructions below.
Step 1
If you have more than one user, and the one in question is not an administrator, then go to Step 2.
Triple-click anywhere in the following line on this page to select it:
sudo find ~ $TMPDIR.. -exec chflags -h nouchg,nouappnd,noschg,nosappnd {} + -exec chown -h $UID {} + -exec chmod +rw {} + -exec chmod -h -N {} + -type d -exec chmod -h +x {} + 2>&-
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command may take several minutes to run, depending on how many files you have. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1, if you prefer not to take it, or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Start up in Recovery mode. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open. In that window, type this:
resetp
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
