Setting security in ESSCMD script (long)

Hi, I'm pretty new to Essbase but couldn't find an answer to a problem I'm having running a nightly script.Basically, I have to copy an application every night before running the nightly batch update - so that users can access either the pre- or post-update versions.We use a script like the following to make a copy of the application prior to updating the data: LOGIN "server" "username" "password" ; LOADDB "Snapshot" "History" ; SELECT "Snapshot" "History" ; DELETEAPP "Snapshot"; LOADDB "History" "History" ; SELECT "History" "History" ; COPYAPP "History" "Snapshot";     :END ; LOGOUT ; EXIT ;Basically, it deletes the "old" snapshot, and then copies the current History application / database as Snapshot.The problem I have is that a specified group of users need access to this database, but every time this script runs it deletes all their security access and I have to reset it through the Application Manager. The script runs after midnight, and a few of the users need access starting at 6:00 AM, and I don't want to have to dial in every day at 5:00 AM to set it.Is there a simple way to do this in the esscmd script we are running?Thanks,Scottp.s. using Essbase 5.0.2

FYI-When you delete the application or Database ,all security asociated with with that application is deleted, so there is no way to get back the security setup .There is a work around to overcome it.1. Before you run your esscommand script,Take security file Backup on server and save it in a safe location.2.Run your esscomand script .3.copy back your security file on to the server, so that you can restore your stuff,without re-doing the whole process.This security file is available on Hyperion bin directory with .Sec Extension.Let me know, if you have any questions.Thanks

    Hello, Is it possible to set security for a group at the application level so it automatically trickles down to the databases below (even new ones)? Thank you in advance.

  • Setting Security in Internet Zone to High affects Trusted Sites

    In response to the recent Security Advisory, we recommended our users set the Internet Zone security to High.
    However, this is causing our local Intranet site which is in every users Trusted Sites Zone (set at Medium-Low) to not function.
    I was under the impression that Trusted Sites are treated different than Internet Sites.
    What security settings do they share that would be affected by setting the Internet Zone to High?
    Thank you.
    Jeremy Leigh

    Hi
    f12>Console tab, refresh the page to show suppressed error messages, warnings, blocked content warnings.
    A 'High' security zone settings is equivalent to the Restricted Zones default setting.
    by default Active Scripting, scripting of ActiveX and applets and xss is disabled in the Restricted Zone.... basically domains mapped to the Restricted sites zone will be useless without active scripting.

    The best way to reduce GC is to change you application to use less memory. Serious.
    There are a number of JVM options for GC. I can't tell you what will work best
    for your application.
    25 seconds is way too long for a GC. Is the OS paging? You may wish to invest
    in additional memory.

  • Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2

    Hi,
    I have a Primary site (mixed mode) running SCCM 2007 SP1 for many months now with no issues.
    This site is made up of two Win 2008 sp2 servers sharing the SCCM roles:-
    SCCM01 - Site server, DP, RP, PXE and SQL2005 hosting the SCCM database
    SCCM02 – SUP, MP, FSP, SLP
    The SQL2005 on SCCM01 is running under a domain service account called
    domain\service_sccm which is also a sysadmin in SQL as is the SCCM02 server.
    In an effort to resolve the isse I have made this account a Domain Admin.
    I have also used this account to log onto SEC01 to run the Secondary Site installation and to be the SQL Service account.
    I'm now trying to add a Secondary Site on a Domain Controller called SEC01 (also Win2008 sp2) and on the same LAN as the SCCM01/02.
    This is where I get problems.
    I run the installation locally on the Sec Site server (DC) as a Domain Admin and the installation completes OK (all green ticks),
    the ComponentSetup.log and Pre-Reqs are all good as well however when I check the ConfigMgrSetup.log I see the below -
    Failed to set security on SQL Server registry key. Error: 2.
    <11-09-2010 22:46:59> SMS Setup full version is 4.00.6221.1000

    Adding the PMP role to SEC01 also fails to install and no MPSetup or MPControl logs are created.
    WebDav and win2008 roles, features all added and server fully patched.
    Despooler.log on SCCM01 seems good and passing keys.
    Tried installing to default path and to shortened path such as C:\SCCM
    The new secondary site is listed in the console and an address can be added for the Secondary Site
    BITS Server Extensions and Remote Differential Compression Features are enabled.
    The Group memberships all appear ok:-
    SCCM01
    Local Admins    
    contains the sec site server SEC01, SCCM01, installation accounts
    SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_001              
    SEC01 (the sec site server)
    SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_001                 
    SCCM02
    SEC01
    No Local Admins as a DC
    SMS_SiteToSiteConnection_002              
    SCCM01
    SMS_SiteSystemToSiteServerConnection_002     
    empty
    SQL 2005
    This has the account logged in during installation as a sysadmin
    SCCM02 is also sysadmin
    The fundamental issue appears to be that the SEC01$ server account is not being added to SQL Logins (and therefore SCCM database Roles)
    therefore the installation cannot complete.
    I have tried to manually add the SEC01 account to SQL Logins before installation of Sec Site but this did not work.
    Not sure if the fact that SEC01 is a DC may be a factor.
    Appreciate any help if anyone has seen this before or can suggest a resolution.
    Thanks

    After a lot of digging around and head scratching I eventually found the resolution.
    The original thread title Error turned out to be a bit of a red herring in that my failure to deploy Sec Sites came down to two separate issues seemingly unrelated to the error message of the thread title.
    The first part of the resolution was to manually create the SQL Server accounts for the Sec Site Servers and assign them to the smsdbrole_MP DB role to
    let the SQL side of the SCCM install complete a s these were not being created automatically.
    This then left the fact that that the installation of the Sec Site completed successfully according to the install logs in C:\ however the DP and MP would
    never install.
    The big clue was eventually contained in the mpfdm.log errors relating to
    **ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox SMS_AMT_PROXY_COMPONENT on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER 
    and
    **ERROR: Cannot find path for destination inbox Asset Intelligence KB Manager on server REGISTRY SMS_MP_FILE_DISPATCH_MANAGER 
    Thankfully the errors led me to these two blogs:
    http://myitforum.com/cs2/blogs/scassells/archive/2009/07/20/error-cannot-find-path-for-destination-inbox-sms-amt-proxy-component-on-server-registry.aspx
    and
    http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/configmgrsetup/thread/5fcc53d4-8629-4b34-9eaa-6cb020eedc13/
    As it turned out the SCCM installation registry and folder creation does not complete and I had to manually enter the reg settings as detailed in the
    links above to complete the installation. Once I did as described everything worked a treat – all my MPs and DPs are 100% now.

    How to set security group as primary site collection admin and secondary site collection admin using powershell in sharepoint online site - office 365?

    Hi,
    According to your description, my understanding is that you want to set security group as admin of primary and secondary site collection using PowerShell command in office 365.
    I suggest you can use the command below to set the group to site owner, then it will have the site collection admin permission.

  • Combine functionality Batch Create Multiple files and Set Security

    2)      Be able to create a batch process that first allows me to select the documents (Word, Excel, etc.) I want to convert into PDF files, then converts them, then runs the Set Security batch process.
    Right now it isn’t too much trouble to first “Create Multiple Files…” then run the batch process Set Security, but it would be nice to be able to do both with a single command.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you,
    TPK

    The first file is the problem file.  If you create this file separately, Acrobat will convert it perfectly.  But "Batch create multiple files" and the graphics are deconstructed on page 8

    Netscape security model is no longer supported.
    Please migrate to the Java 2 security model instead.
    Is logged to my java console window and the javabean will not be invoked. How do I migrate to the Java 2 security model. I'm tryÃng to use acrobat viewer for Java as a bean in my forms to open and print pdf documents.
    Thanks,

    Anders,
    see also my response to your second posting on this:
    VBean
    My last information regarding the Acrobat Reader jar files were that they are based on Java 1.x, wchih may explain the problems you are running into. I tried these jar files one or two years ago and had problems getting them to work in a newer Java environment.

  • Can you set security on Collab folders or just projects?

    I know this is the Content Services forum, but I couldn't find a forum for Collab. Anyone know if you can set security to the folder level in Collab 4.0.2 or can you only set it to the project level?

    thanks for the clarification...there is no concept of setting security on actual project folders. Security is managed on an individual project basis.

  • Detecting clientside NLS_LANG setting in SQL*Plus script

    Our company has developed an application that uses an Oracle database as it backend. Companies can buy our application and run it against their own Oracle installation.
    A new version of our application often requires an update to the Oracle database schema.
    Together with new application files we send our customers an update.sql script they must run against their database using SQL*Plus.
    This update script may contain international characters like é for example:
    UPDATE SHOPS SET DESCRIPTION = 'Café'
    WHERE SHOP_ID=1We save the SQL-script file in windows-1252 encoding so the character é is encoded as 0xE9 in the script file.
    When the DBA running the upgrade script has set NLS_LANG=.WE8MSWIN1252 this works perfectly.
    When the DBA has set his NLS_LANG=US7ASCII the é gets replaced by an upside-down question mark. Other NLS_LANG settings can also be troublesome.
    To prevent this we give very clear installation instructions. However, nobody reads them. This leads to two questions:
    A) Is there a way to prevent this problem so I do not depend on the NLS_LANG setting by the DBA running the upgrade script?
    B) Otherwise: is there a way to test for the NLS_LANG setting inside the script and abort if it is not WE8MSWIN1252?
    Info:
    Database is 10.2.0.3/10.2.0.4 and sometimes 10.2.0.5, always database character set WE8MSWIN1252.
    Client software: I do not know what each DBA uses but it will be mostly 10g client software
    Client OS: Some DBA's will be running the script from Windows, others from some Unix variety. I cannot control that.

    I agree with Sergiusz. You're much better off if you can remove character set dependencies from your scripts by using commands like this.
    UPDATE SHOPS SET DESCRIPTION =  unistr( 'Caf\00E9' )
    WHERE SHOP_ID=1 ;If that's not possible however you can try this approach to determine the session's character set.
