  • Essbase Studio Performance Issue : Data load into BSO cube

    Hello,
    Having succesfully built my outline by member loading through Essbase Studio, I have tried to load data into my application again with Studio. However I was never able to complete the data load because it is taking forever. Each time I tried to work with Studio in streaming mode (hoping to increase the query speed), the load gets terminated due to the following error : Socket read timed out.
    In the Studio properties file, I typed in, oracle.jdbc.ReadTimeout=1000000000, but the result has not changed. Even if it did work out, I am also not sure the streaming mode is gonna provide a much faster alternative to working in non-streaming mode. What I'd like to know is, which Essbase settings I can change (either in Essbase or Studio server) in order to speed up my data load. I am loading into a Block Storage database with 3 Dense, 8 Sparse and 2 attribute dimensions. I filtered some dimensions and tried to load data to see exactly how long it takes to create a certain number of blocks. With ODBC setting in Essbase Studio, it took me 2.15 hours to load data into my application where only 153 blocks were created with the block size of 24B. Assuming that in my real application the number of Blocks created are going to be at least 1000 times more than this , I need to make some changes in settings. I am transferring the data from Oracle Database, with 5 tables joined to a fact table (view) from the same data source. All the cache settings in Essbase are in default mode. Would changing cache settings, buffer size or multiple threads help to increase the performance? Or what would you suggest that I should do?
    Thank you very much.

    Hello user13695196 ,
    (sorry I no longer remember my system number here)
    Before it comes to any optimisation attemps in the essbase (also Studio) environment you should definitily make clear that your source data query performs well at the oracle db.
    I would recommand:
    1. to create in your db source schema a View from your sql statement (these behind your data load rule)
    2. query against this view with any GUI (Sql Developer, TOAD etc.) to fetch all rows and measure the time it takes to complete. Also count the effected (returned) number of rows for your information and for future comparing of results.
    If your query runs longer then you think is acceptable then
    a) check DB statistiks,
    b) check and/or consider creating indexes
    c) if you are unsure then kindliy ask your DBA for help. Usually they can help you very fast.
    (Don't be shy - a DBa is a human being like you and me :-) )
    Only when your sql runs fast (enough for you; or your DBA says is the best you can achieve) at the database move your effort over to essbase.
    One hint in addition:
    We had often problems when using views for dataload (not only performance but rather other strange behavior) . Thats the reaons why I like more directly to set up on (persistence) tables.
    Just to keep in mind: If nothing helps create a table from your view and then query your data from this table for your essbase data load. Normaly however this should be your last option.
    Best Regards
    (also to you Torben :-) )

  • How to set alias using Essbase Studio?

    I have read through P113-P118 "Oracle Essbase Studio User Guide" about the how to set up alias. It seems easy t create the Alias Set according to the document.
    I want to set 100-10 alias as "Cola", the information comes from the TBC relational database. The product table in RLDB has field SKU and SKU_Alias columns, the value of SKU is: 100-10,100-20, etc.
    My binding is:
    Source: SKU
    connection : TBC::TBC.Product.SKU_ALIAS
    This is using the grammer in page 115
    connection :
    \'<logical_source_name'::'<physical_data_source_name>.<physical_tabl
    e_name>'.'<physical_column_name>'
    But after I deployed the cube, I cannot see the product alias name as expected from EAS? I tried 100 times, but cannot find what's wrong with me. Please advise, thanks!
    My question: How to set up or associate the alias set with the product items from Essbase Studio so that I can see it from EAS? thanks! Bob

    First it may be useful to convert the EIS TBC model to Studio, to do this you would have to configure EIS and create the TBC sample application.
    Once it has been created in Studio you can go to Tools > EIS Catalog migration and migrate the TBC app from EIS to Studio.
    If you use this method all the aliases etc will be already set up so you can see how it is done.
    To set up Aliases you would go to
    Tools > "Alias set Manager" > Create a new alias say "Default" and add a binding e.g. PRODUCTDIM.SKU to PRODUCTDIM.SKUALIAS
    Then on your Model right click "Essbase Properties" > Alias tab > Select the Default alias table and move to the selected tables window.
    This should of then assigned the default table, if you check the properties of say PRODUCTDIM.SKU in the alias tab Default and the mapping should be shown.

  • Solution to Errno:7 in MaxL for Essbase Studio redeployment scripts

    This is an answer to an archived forum post that I found via a Google search.  The forum post no longer accepts replies.  The forum post contained an unanswered question about how to resolve "Errno:7" in MaxL in release 11.1.2.3 when trying to redeploy an outline through Essbase Studio.
    I encountered the same error in a client environment and could not find any resolution or references to this in the Knowledge Base, patches, release notes, etc.
    I wanted to post the resolution that worked for me, in case someone else encounters Errno:7 in MaxL.
    In this particular instance, the MaxL "deploy outline" script worked fine until we upgraded 11.1.2.1 to 11.1.2.3.  After upgrading, we could still connect to the Essbase Agent via MaxL, but the "deploy outline" script fails with "Not able to connect to BPM Server. Errno:7" and "BPM Connect Status: Error".  No evidence of the error could be found in the logs for the Essbase Agent, the Essbase application in question, and Essbase Studio.  Using the Essbase Studio Console to redeploy the outline worked fine.
    The root cause was learned when we ran the EPM Registry Editor to view a registry report.  The report showed that while Essbase Studio was correctly listening on port 5300, the web port was still on the old 11.1.2.1 port (9080) instead of the port 11.1.2.3 was expecting (12080).  This port number is not exposed to us if we go back into the EPM Configuration tool and drill down to Essbase Studio.  The config tool only allows us to change the relational database connection and the "datafiles" folder location.  Running "netstat -na" from the command prompt confirmed that the server was listening to 9080 instead of 12080.
    Using the EPM Registry Editor command-line tool to update the port's property value and then restarting the Essbase Studio service fixed the issue for us.  If you read the Essbase Studio documentation as I did, you may have had the impression that editing a file on the server would do the trick.  But the Readme for Essbase Studio 11.1.2.3 provides the real answer:
    "Starting in Release 11.1.2.3, the following Essbase Studio server properties are stored in the
    Oracle Hyperion Shared Services Registry database.
    The 11.1.2.3 Oracle Essbase Studio User's Guide describes all server properties as being in the
    server.properties file. To view or modify the settings in Shared Services Registry, use the
    epmsys_registry utility, described in the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System
    Deployment Options Guide."
    I hope this helps and good luck!

    Hi Santy,
    Here's the original forum post: Essbase Studio Cube deployment via MaxL error
    In that thread, someone had questioned if an 11.1.2.2 MaxL client could still connect and bypass the error.  I happened to have a laptop handy with the 11.1.2.2 MaxL client installed on it and was able to test that.  The 11.1.2.2 MaxL client got the error as well.
    In my 11.1.2.3 environment I tried both the 32-bit and 64-bit MaxL runtimes and verified both were on the latest available Essbase patch set for 11.1.2.3.  Again, they still got the Errorno:7 message.  The problem was only fixed after updating the "server.httpPort" property value via the epmsys_registry tool.
    Regards,
    - Dave

  • How to Clear Deployment History in Essbase Studio 11.1.2

    Hi All,
    I was unable to export the entire catalog in Essbase Studio 11.1.2.So,I posted the issue with Oracle Support and got reply as follows
    "found the failure for the export of entire catalog could be related to a large deployment history. In this case there are two options for 11.1.2.0.00 release
    1. Try to increase memory setting but on Windows 32-bit platforms ensure it should be below the maximum setting of 2048 MB.
    2. If it doesn't help, please try to clean-up deployment history."
    Which setting I have to increase

  • Essbase Studio Error in 11.1.2.2

    Hi Everyone,
    I have installed hyperion 11.1.2.2 in windows 2008 Server and configured sucessfully however when i click on essbase studio console i am getting the below error.
    A javaruntime environment (JRE) or java development kit (JDK) must be available. No Virtual Machine was found after searching the following locations.
    C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\Essbasestudio\console\jre\bin\javaw.exe
    javaw.exe is current path.
    i don't see the javaw.exe file in the above path. Kindly help me in this.
    Regards,
    AS

    If you edit
    <MIDDLEWARE_HOME>\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Console\startStudio.bat
    then you will probably see "set JAVA_HOME=..." is pointing to an incorrect location
    As the Studio console is 32bit then it needs to point to a 32bit JRE e.g.
    set JAVA_HOME="E:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\common\JRE"

  • Essbase studio 11.1.2.1 problem

    First of all hello to all and please please help. I'm in the on-site poc engagement where we successfully loaded customer's hierarchies using essbase studio but we cannot somehow make it working with loading data.
    Few details:
    fact table is very large, around 16 M records and is based on Oracle DB.
    The message I'm getting after launching only load task says:
    Cannot join following sets of tables: 1. [connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.KREDYTY']
    2. [connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.DORADCA', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.KAT_RYZYKA', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.ORGANIZACJA', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.OBSZAR', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.TYP_KRED', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.TYP_PROD', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.KANAL', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.TYP_RACH', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.POC_PARMPF_AGR', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.TERMIN', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.LINIA', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.PODMIOT', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.SALDA', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.TYP_OPROC', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.DEPOZYTY', connection : \'pko'::'POC_A.WALUTA'].
    I don't understand that as I did created joins between fact table and dimension tables.
    In the log file I found following 2 sections:

    If I understand it correctly essbase studio doesn't allow to deploy app that is already there but the question is why it want to deploy when I select only load data task ?
    Also, can somebody tell me why I cannot setup custom sql ?
    I'd really appreciate your help as we can win million + deal
    Thanks!!!!

    I hear that there is a really good book available now on Studio (http://www.amazon.com/Look-Smarter-Than-Essbase-Studio/dp/1458362434/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1336684325&sr=8-1), you may want to see if that helps. Hopefully the very reasonable cost can be viewed as a good investment for that million + deal.

  • Data load error in essbase studio

    I get the following error when trying to load an ASO cube using Essbase Studio (EPM 11.1.2). This error doen't seem to be documented in any of the Essbase manuals. Question - does this error indicate an essbase server issue or a data source issue? I'm thnking it's datasource related, but my data source is an Oracle database, which I've used previously to load cubes without a problem. I've refreshed the source and can connect to it fine otherwise.
    Error:
    Data load started at: Fri Dec 03 08:52:21 EST 2010.      Data load elapsed time:  10 Minutes 23 Seconds.
    Failed to deploy Essbase cube.
    Caused by: Failed to load data into database: 8020.
    Caused by: Cannot execute a SQL query
    Caused by: Io exception: Socket read timed out
    Caused by: Socket read timed out
    Appreciate any hel with this issue.

    When I have issues with Studio I try to break it down slowly. I build my dimensions one at a time. If it breaks on a single dimension build I trace the issues backwards and usually find my issue in the schema.
    Studio's role in life is to create SQL load rules and as such depend on a good schema definition. Unforntunately, the dimension build rules can't be opened in EAS with the Dataprep Editor (regular load rules) because they're binary and can do things that a normal load rule cannot (text measures, date measures, time varying attributes, etc.). But that doesn't mean the .rul files are un-readable. If you're having trouble with a particular dimension build process, open the load rule it creates with something like Notepad and grab the SQL that Studio is generating and drop it into Toad (or equivalant) to see if it is generating usable code. If not, there's something wrong with your modeling and you need to go back to the mini-schema.
    When you're able to build all dimensions all at the same time, you're almost there. If your issues comes when you want to build and load data, the final debuging steps go quickly. Towards that end, the data load rules (ones that load data vs. building dimensions) generated by Studio can be edited in EAS using the Dataprep Editor. If you know SQL Load Rules, you should be able to figure out. If not, contact John Goodwin, OCS or a partner and set up a consulting visit.

  • How to use Logical operators in Essbase Studio?

    I want to add a new Dimension Element like
    if ( connection : \'SH'::'SH.CUSTOMERS'.'CUST_GENDER' == "M" ) then "Male"
    else "Female"
    However, there isn't 'if ... then ...' expression in Essbase Studio. I'm puzzled to the usage of logical operators such as '==', '!=', and so on.

    The == and !== are to set conditions for filtering. the ! meand not. In esscense these allow you to get a subset of rows that meet the conditions specified. In your case where Gender == "M" you will only get those rows where the value is "M". What you want to do is transform rows not filter them. I have not looked at studio enough yet to know how to do this, but a few things come to mind. First, you could use text to create the outline menbers instead of values from the tables, you could crete a reference table with the M = Male and F = Female and join to it to get the values or you could use a standard load rule and sql interface to load the data and just build the dimensions and drill through from Studio. I think I would opt for the second option

  • Substitution variable in Essbase Studio

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if it's possible to use Substitution variables inside a custom SQL in Essbase Studio ? When I try to use, I got an error message ( ORA-01008: not all variables bound ).
    I'd like to make the SQL generated by Studio dynamic in order to set different load periods. The way I found is to join the SQL with a control table which has an initial/end date. Before running the cube deploy script I update the table with the date range I want. But I'm not sure that's the best way to do it.
    Anyn suggestion ?
    Thanks,
    Victor

    This post speaks to the error message but not in the context of Essbase Studio => ORA-01008: not all variables bound
    Although there are a myriad of approaches to accomplish this I can certainly appreciate your desire to have it function properly upon Studio code generation & execution itself.
    I will reach-out to some of my Oracle colleagues and inquire.
    Thank you,
    Todd Rebner

  • Essbase Studio - Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server

    Hi all,
    I am new to Hyperion and am having trouble deploying what seems a simple cube in Essbase Studio.
    My environment is Windows 2003, EPM 11.1.1.2, SQL Server 2000.
    I have the following two issues which may be related.
    1. The EPM System Diagnostic tool says that Hyperion Foundation cannot connect to the SQL database.
    Error:
    Failed: Connection to database
    Error: java.net.UnknownHostException: <server name: <server name>
    Recommended Action:
    Every other EPM application is able to connect to the database. I have tried re-configuring Foundation Services and checking the config files and nothing looks wrong. I would appreciate advice on how to fix this.
    2 In Essbase Studio, I was able to connect to the database where the source data is, build the minischema and create dimensions and measures. But when I run the cube deployment wizard I get the error:
    Message: Failed to deploy Essbase cube
    Caused By: Failed to build Essbase cube dimension: (Time)
    Caused By: Cannot incremental build. Essbase Error(1021001): Failed to Establish Connection With SQL Database Server. See log for more information
    …ODBC Layer Error: [08001] ==> [[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.]
    I have checked the DSN as well as the connections set up within Studio, and they are all able to connect to the database. I am using the admin user for the Essbase server and have created a different user for the databases where the data resides and the shared services database. I tried using the same user all the way through and this didn’t help.
    Can you please advise what else I can check or change to resolve this issue.
    Also, can you work in EAS with cubes that are created in Studio? I tried looking at it and I got an error that the rule file couldn’t be accessed because it was created in Studio.
    After the above failures, I tried creating a cube in EIS, with mixed success. I have been able to load the members and data without errors. But when I try to view the data in the cube, I am seeing field names for the measures instead of the data itself.
    ...Definitely more questions than answers at this stage of my learning.
    Regards
    Michelle

    Michelle,
    I don't know if you found an answer to you question after so many months but I was hoping I could be helpful.
    The issue you are experience happens often when the dimension that you are getting an error on, in this case TIME, is built from a snowflake lineage and there is a bad foreign key reference. This dimension is most like high-up in your outline build process for Essbase Studio and this prevents the build from happening usually early on.
    Check your logs also. They are in Hyperion > Products > logs > essbase > essbasestudio.
    You can also make your logs more verbose by setting a configuration variable in the essbase studio server.properties file but that should only be used for debugging as it really saps performance.
    And, yes, you can of course edit an Essbase Studio deployed cube in EAS. However, any changes you make to the cube in EAS are subject to being wiped-out upon the next Essbase Studio deployment of that Applicaion/Database combo.
    If you want to provide more detail, screenshots, etc. I would be glad to help where I can.
    Cheers,
    Christian

  • Essbase Studio: Failed to deploy Essbase cube

    Hi
    I have started working with Essbase studio sometime back and I am able to deploy BSO cube with success using the TBCSample Database which comes along with Essbase. Now I wanted to deploy ASO cube, as no sample database is available I thought to create one, I extracted ASOSamp using ODI to CSV files. Then I bulk inserted the csv extracts into MSSQL 2003 server which created 11 tables (Age, Geography, IncomeLevel, Measures, PaymentType, Product, Stores, Time TransactionType, Year). The above mentioned table does not have any keys(Primary, Foreign) as it is an Essbase export.
    I then successful created ASO Cube Schema using the newly created sample database in MSSQL, validated cube schema without any errors.
    Essbase Property Setting:
    Measures Hierarchy is tagged as Dynamic Compression at dimension level
    Time, Product and Year Hierarchy is tagged as Multiple Hierarchies Enabled, Year does not have multiple hierarchies but it has formulas for Variance and Variance % member. Is there a way to tag Year as Dynamic hierarchy?
    But when I try to deploy the cube to Essbase I receive following errors:
    Failed to deploy Essbase cube
    Caused By: Cannot end incremental build. Essbase Error(1060053): Outline has errors

    Are these errors due to data source, if yes what could be possible work around?
    Is there any problem with Essbase properties which I have set if so then when I validate cube schema why I dn't get any errors?
    Please help me, I am stuck here not able to deploy ASO Cube.
    Thanks in advance

    Hii
    I have the same problem , you have.
    did you manage to solve it ??
    Thanks in advance

  • How to update all hierarchies in Essbase Studio

    Hi All,
    Currently I am building ASO cube using Essbase Studio.We are having 6[Stored]+1[Accounts] hierarchies in that 3 hiearchies contains 4 generations and remianing 3 hiearchies contains 3 generations with 20 attricbutes each.When I am trying to use "INCREMENTAL LOAD" with "Update all hierarchies" option records gets rejected.When I am using "Incremental Load" with "Rebuild hierarchies" it taking very long time.
    Since our ware house is huge I cannot reset all and load from first.
    Can someone assist me how to update the hierarchies on daily basis in less time
    Note: In our cube we dont have any shared members
    Thanks,
    SatyaB

    The == and !== are to set conditions for filtering. the ! meand not. In esscense these allow you to get a subset of rows that meet the conditions specified. In your case where Gender == "M" you will only get those rows where the value is "M". What you want to do is transform rows not filter them. I have not looked at studio enough yet to know how to do this, but a few things come to mind. First, you could use text to create the outline menbers instead of values from the tables, you could crete a reference table with the M = Male and F = Female and join to it to get the values or you could use a standard load rule and sql interface to load the data and just build the dimensions and drill through from Studio. I think I would opt for the second option

  • Essbase Studio- DTS Issue 11.1.2.1

    Hi Everyone,
    A few months ago, we built our cube through Essbase Studio so that we could allow drill through reports on the cube.
    We set Dynamic Time Series on our PERIOD dimension at the Year and Quarter Level.
    Our hierarchy looks like this:
    PERIOD
    |--BEGBALANCE
    |--YEARTOTAL
    |--|--H1
    |--|--|--Q1
    |--|--|--|--APR
    |--|--|--|--MAY
    |--|--|--|--JUN
    |--|--|--Q2
    |--|--|--|--JUL
    |--|--|--|--AUG
    |--|--|--|--SEP
    |--|--H2
    |--|--|--Q3
    |--|--|--|--OCT
    |--|--|--|--NOV
    |--|--|--|--DEC
    |--|--|--Q4
    |--|--|--|--JAN
    |--|--|--|--FEB
    |--|--|--|--MAR
    In Studio, we built this dimension as a recursive hierarchy and NOT level based.
    Our settings are Time (DTS) however we can only choose generation 1 or 2 and cannot put it at gen 2 and 4 where it should be.
    We set it as a dense dimension, no two pass, and label only and no formulas or UDAs.
    When we run a smart view query with dynamic time series for October (for example), we get an error message [cannot perform cube operation.null].
    My coworker then converted the recursive hierarchy to level based just for testing purposes (because we thought the issue was that we built a recursive hierarchy and could only set DTS at gen 1 or 2). After building the hierarchy as level based, we hit the same issue regardless of whether we set the DTS at level or generation.
    I am just wondering if anyone has run into this issue before and has a resolution. We are running 11.1.2.1 for version. We have an SR logged with Oracle as of a couple of months ago and they told us they would have a resolution in a week since they were able to duplicate the issue. We have escalated the SR numberous times and have not received a solution yet.
    I appreciate your help,
    Thanks,
    Daniel

    I have run into the exact same problem. Did you ever get a resolution? I have also logged a support call so would be interested to know if it is resolved.
    Thanks
