System 9 Planning Migration

Hi!
We are experiencing some issues with migration of security between our dev environment and production.
We are using native groups to maintain security in Planning, Reports and HBR. These native groups are migrated using the import/export utility. After having provisioned the groups in Shared Services (the utility contains bugs so it won't migrate provisioning only the groups) and assigned the users (or validated that they are there) we refresh security in Planning.
Alas, the access does not work. Next step is to force planning to suck in security from SS by changing settings in the DB and the recycle the environment. It then removes all the original groups in Planning and replaces them with HP_WHATEVERTHE_NANE_OF_THE_GROUP, i.e. the HP_ prefix. It also adds these to Shared services.
Basically how to move security from one app to another? We have pretty delicate security settings for accounts for example that we don't want to loose.
Thanks,
N

Planning Migration from Development Server to Testing Server

Hi All,
I am doing migration from development env to testing env. I am stuck in the middle of the migration. Anyone please guide me in this situation. Its very urgent for me. I am following below steps for the planning migration
1. Create a new database on Production RDBMS Server for your planning application.
I created the new database for my planning application.
2. Configure a data source on Production Planning Server.
     I configured the new datasource on planning.
3. Create fresh planning application on Production Server and Ensure the admin is the same as your planning application on Development Server.
     I created the new planning application on production server. Its working fine with admin login.
4. Go into the database tables for the planning app on Production Server and look at table HSP_USERS; store the SID value against user 50001.
     I save the SID value against 50001 in a notepad
5. Go into the database planning system tables on Production Server and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application you have created.
     I removed the version for the application i created
6. Stop Planning.
     I stopped the planning services
7. Restore the planning application database on Development over the one created in the first step (to the Production Server Database).
     In this steps only, i am facing diffculities.
     How to take the backup of development database? (Here, i want to the take the database backup of planning application schema or entire oracle databat in development server)
     How to restore to testing env database
Please anyone guide me in this situtation. Please......
8. Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
9. Start planning
10. Go to planning web and you should see your application when you try and log in it should take you to a migrate screen.
11. If you are requiring to migrate users as well, you will have to make sure you create them in Shared Services and then use the updateusers utility in the planning bin directory.
Thanks,
Lakshmi

Hi Mars,
Thanks for your reply. I did the same as you specified. I used Imp instead of import, exp instead of export.
7. Restore the planning application database on Development over the one created in the first step (to the Production Server Database).
I restored the Planning dmp here
8. Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
Here, SID remains the same after restore the backup from the development server(SID same for Development and testing Server)
9. Start planning
I started the Planning Services.
10. Go to planning web and you should see your application when you try and log in it should take you to a migrate screen
I am facing problem here.
While login into planning application, its not redirect to migrate screen. Its normally login to the application
Thanks,
Lakshmi

New MBP. Used migration assistant in setup Safari crashes on launch OS10.7.4 Safari 5.1.7 Had Safari 6 on system I migrated from. help?

New MacBook Pro. Came with OS 10.7.4
Used Migration Assistant in initial set up
Safari crashes immediately on launch
System I migrated from, had Safari 6
Don't see any way to reload or to update Safari 6 on the new MBP
Software Update says all software on this computer is up to date

Updating to Safari 6 for Lion may help.
Click here > Safari Quits Every Time Opened: Apple Support Communities
Then click the link posted by: gregoryfromcork
That will automatically download this file > Safari6Lion.pkg.download
Now quit Safari.
Go to your Downloads folder and double click that file and follow the instructions for installing.
Then restart your Mac, try Safari.

Planning migration

Hi ,
We are planning to do migration for planning application version 11.1.1.1.3. My question is how many ways we can do planning migration, and which is better way?
Thanks in advance.

LCM will migrate all the objects e.g. web forms, task lists etc, it will migrate essbase objects but not data before version 11.1.2
If you use this method you don't have to copy the planning applications relational database.
If you use the relation database copy method it will take all of the planning application across at once, it does not do the essbase side.

Hyperion Planning migration error while refreshing/creating Essbase cube

Hi,
I'm migrating a Hyperion Planning application (11.1.1.4) to a complete other environment (due to the split of the companies). I have read most post on otn, but unfortunately nothing that helped me to solve the issue, yet... I hope someone can help me. Thanks in advance!
I have executed the following steps:
1. Create a new Oracle database
2. Create a datasource to the Oracle database and to Essbase (both tested succesfully)
3. Create a fresh planning application (I have used a native Admin account and not the original owner)
4. Go into the database tables for the planning app and look at table HSP_USERS, store the SID value against user 50001
5. Go into the database planning system tables and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application you have created - I did not do this since I could not delete this value. null is not accepted.
6. Stop Planning
7. Restore the planning application database over the one created in the first step (I had to drop the existing tables first)
8. Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
9. Start planning
10. Log on to planning and I did see the webforms, etc as expected.
11. Now, when I try to refresh the database, I receive an error:
Cube refresh/create in progress
Status failed
Step 4 Adding dimensions
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: getAttributeType
Does anyone has an idea? Hope someone can help me since the deadline is getting closer and closer.
Thanks!
Kind Regards
Martin

Hi John,
Thanks for your reply.
I have exactly done what you have described. I droped the schema and recreated it with an impdp to import.
But, in the meantime I have been investigating the dimensions and there's indeed something very wrong. Some dimensions have been mixed up. In the 'old' environment I have 10 stored dimensions and 4 attribute dimensions (as well as in EAS as in Planning, offcourse as you expect). In the 'new' environment, two stored dimensions have been mixed up with two attribute dimensions.... How is that possible?
I have never seen that. Could this be caused by the reason that we use a different version of Oracle (11G release 2 vs 10G (10.2.0.4))? Or went something wrong with exporting the schema...? Can you tell me what I can do to investigate this?
Thanks!
Kind Regards,
Martin

Forms system potential migration questions.

We have a forms and reports based system built in 10g.
We are considering migrating to 11g forms and reports but long term moving to ADF or APEX.
We are generally a data entry system run on intranet so my prefernence has always been APEX but management are trying to follow the Oracle roadmap which is pushing ADF.
We are a small outfit so the solution we choose will probably be the one which offers the quickest development times.
I have signed up for apex.oracle.com to have a play but seems to be taking forever to get approval!
A few questions re APEX (apologies if these are really simple)
1) How is user access controlled. Currently all our users login via one SYSDBA user. Our current system has a logon box which then allows access to the screens they can amend. I assume APEX uses the DB user access rights?
2) How easy is it to deploy fixes etc? We have upwards of 200 customer sites. We currently distribute fmx an RDF files on a monthly basis.
3) Can you use key strokes? Many customers like the F Keys to be used as quick keys? i.e. in forms F10 can be save, F3 can be clear etc
4) Can we use our existing database? Although this is many years old and all the correct constraints may not be in place (ie. a few FK/indexes may be missing - but we could try and tidy up pre migration) would it be possible to use this. We are consdiering rewriting the database but most customers will want to bring through their old data and have custom reports built on these so would struggle to rewrite)
5) How is inheritance handled? In our forms environment all our items are inherited from one point so if we change that one point it follows through the system
6) I have seen online demo were by people are creating mini databases from spreadsheets. Can it be setup so the users can create things like this without affecting other areas of the system?
7) Any pros/Cons when comparing to ADF
8) Any people any fedback from migrating from Forms
Any feedback at all is greatfully recieved.
Im looking forward to the online demo.

Sure Oracle pushes ADF, because it has cost them $$$$$$ and they want to get that back. Apex is part of the database, and as such you already have a license for it. No need for a Weblogic or OAS license.
seems to be taking forever to get approval!Went pretty fast for me a few years ago. 1-2 days if I remember correctly.
1) There are pre-built authentication methods, but you can also create your own method (which most people do).
I assume APEX uses the DB user access rights?As in most web applications, there is only one user that actually accesses the database. And I would never ever make that a SYSDBA user!
Other users may log in via username/password that can be stored in Apex tables or your own tables. They can also be actual database users. However, since they do not connect to the database, their roles are irrelevant. You may use these roles to check authorization in your application, though.
2) Apex exports applications in a sql file, so you can deploy applications via sqlplus (or via the Apex administrator page).
3) The keys are actually browser keys, so you are very limited. You can use some Javascript, but forget about something like F7-F8 combination. It doesn't matter what technology you use, web is different from client/server (or the Forms Java applet). You have to rethink GUI concepts coming from Forms and going to browser applications.
4) Yes. But like Forms, good database design makes thinks easier (like using wizards).
5) There are all kinds of places where you can set defaults, templates etc.
6) Yes.
7) Google for discussions on ADF vs Apex.
8) We use it side by side. No plans to recreate Forms as an Apex application.
Depending on the size of your Forms app, it may take a long time to re-create it in Apex. There are some Forms migration tools in Apex, but I wouldn't use those. They cannot migrate the Forms code anyway, since a browser doesn't understand pl/sql code. As said, you really have to rethink your GUI when moving to a web app.

Conectivity between existent SAP Systems and migrated system to MSCS Cluste

Hi
I have an existing SAP NW PI 7.0 (Abap + Java on Windows 2003 - SQLServer 2005) and plan to migrate to a cluster with new hardware (MSCS).
I have to prepare for the installation by creating a homogeneous copy of the database but I'm a little bit confused.
-Can I use backup/restore method or only can use import/export with R3load tools? The target system is windows and sql server same versions.
-If I can use backup/restore... what is the rigth sequence to the installation? Can I use sapinst with mixed high availability options and System copy options?
-I need to use in the target system the same hostname and IP address of the actual system, so in the Follow-Up Activities we do not change the configuration between the actual system (SAP NW PI) and other existent systems in the landscape... but I do not know what is the location in the cluster to this hostname and IP:
*The central instance will be in the local disks in the node 1. Is the node 1 the rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system?
*The SAP Cluster group has a virtual hostname and IP, it has message and enqueu services. Is the sap cluster group he rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system?
How is the communication between the other systemas and the new clustered system?
Thanks for your help

Can I use backup/restore method or only can use import/export with R3load tools? The target system is windows and sql server same versions.
You should follow the SAP guidlines in performing a homogeneous system copy.
I need to use in the target system the same hostname and IP address of the actual system, so in the Follow-Up Activities we do not change the configuration between the actual system (SAP NW PI) and other existent systems in the landscape... but I do not know what is the location in the cluster to this hostname and IP
This is not possible. If you follow the SAP instructions for installing NW 7.0 in MSCS you will create two cluster groups: DBGroup and SAPGroup. You will therefore have two virtual IP addresses, one for SAP cluster group and one for DB cluster group. If you retain the current IP address/hostname for the virtual SAPGroup, you will need to follow the SAP guidelines for performing a SAP system copy to find where to change the database hostname/IP addresses to point to your new DBGroup.
The central instance will be in the local disks in the node 1. Is the node 1 the rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system?
If you are meaning the ASCS then this should be installed on the disks that are part of the SAPGroup in the cluster.
If you mean the dialog instance (or the Central Instance of a Java stack) then this can be on a local disk for node 1, and not in the cluster.
The SAP Cluster group has a virtual hostname and IP, it has message and enqueu services. Is the sap cluster group he rigth option to use the hostname and IP of the actual system
Yes, this will be the message server host for ASCS.

Source system server migration (new ip address)

Hi Experts
We are moving our servers (source systems) to new boxes. The source systems will be copied to the new ones and the only thing changing will be the IP addresses. BW server will not be touched.
Do I need to create new source systems? I am hoping not to do this and, Are the deltas will be ok? Or do I need to reinitialize all the delta loads?
Thanks!
Daniel

Hi Daniel
No need to create new source system...In fact without deleting the existing one, you wont be able to create same source again.
And do not delete , because that means you will lose all the DataSource.
Need to adjust RFC to point to different hostname /IP address.
In case any inconsistency happens , need to restore the source system connection from BW side.
RSA1-->Source System--->Resotre ...this will automatically adjust RFC connection. Search Forum to know the process of restore in detail if needed.
Delta might need to be re-initialized. Are you planning to clear all the queue before ( LBWQ) server migration? Else you might end in some problems during migration if you are doing it by database restore method.

Fusion 11 Planning migration error

Hi,
1). After copying the planning schema from the old env to the new env (blank planning app already created+css migrated using new utility). Running a Refresh for the first time (with or without the security box checked), causes the dimension level planning security to be wiped out. The Planning web shows nothing and the relevant tables show nothing. Any ideas?
2) The number of tables in 9.2 planning app schema are different from the Fusion 11 schema. A schema import would cause a shortage of tables for Fusion 11. Is this a concern?
Env:
Windows 2k3 System 9.2 to Fusion 11.1.2
Thank you.
Eric.

Thanks for the response.
On first login, I can see all metadata and the migrate button as well. I used it and it was all good. The dimension security gets wiped on first Refresh (with or without the security box checked).
Steps followed:
1. Created Blank App in Fusion env. with new schema/data source
2. Dropping all objects on the target schema and importing the source objects.
3. Migrated Essbase objects via migration utility.
4. Restarting services.
5. Registering Shared Services.
6. logging in and 'migrating' to new version
7. Verify all metadata, forms, dim security exists.
8. Refresh (with and without security filter checked).
9. Login again to check metadata. All intact except dim security.
Any suggestions?

How do I use a backup of my previous system in migration assistant from an external hard drive?

I had to redo my system completely because Snow Leopard broke my Parallels and then when I went back to Leopard my entire system got all screwed up. So I archived and reinstalled Leopard. Transferred the entire Previous System file to my external hard drive then erased and installed a fresh install of Leopard then upgraded to Snow Leopard. Now I'm trying to restore my Previous System on my computer and I can get the Macbook Pro to recognize the external hd in Migration Assistant and in Disk Utility it appears I would have to transfer section by section. I'm trying to prevent that. I don't have money to buy Super Duper or anything else at the moment so Migration and Disk U. seem to be my only options unless you know of anything else.

Installment Plan Migration failing (Emigall)

Hi all,
I'm trying to migrate installment plan data using the INSTPLAN object. I can upload successfully as long as I'm only migrating ONE payment. The problem is when I try to migrate multiple payments. The way I read the docs, I should just be able to send multiple IPDATA rows with the payment amounts and due dates, under one IPKEY row.
I've pared my data back to just sending as follows:
IPKEY row with current dates
IPDATA row with due date 20090129, amount due 14
IPDATA row with due date 20090228, amount due 14.56
IPOPKY row with a Document id that relates to a single open item of 28.56.
I have verified in FPL9 that my open item is indeed that amount 28.56. But the error that I get is:
"Sum total Inst. Plan is not equal to the original receivables"
So this makes me suspicious that I've done something wrong in the IPDATA rows - maybe it's recognizing only one of them?
Can anyone shed some light on this subject for me?
Thanks,
C N

One more thing I can't figure out, is how to load an installment plan where there is not an EXACT match of open items to the installment plan amount, so I need to partially clear one open item.
I've played around with using 000 and 001 for OPUPZ as the documentation indicates, but still I cannot get that scenario uploaded
Anyone know how to do this?
Thanks

QM Inspection Plans migration - How to migrate deleted plans.

Hello All,
I'm currently working on a migration project from 4.7 to 6.0.
Our customer wants to migrate all QM inspection plans, including those are marked as deleted (PLKO-LOEKZ = 'X').
I'm using BAPI_INSPECTIONPLAN_CREATE. The BAPI works fine when the inspection plan which is being loaded is not marked as deleted. But when I try to upload another one which is mark as deleted (BAPI1191_TSK_C-DEL_IND = 'X'), I get the following error from BAPIRETURN: "The object does not exist for scheduled deletion time" (Message class CPCC_DT, number 214).
Does anybody knows if it is possible to load inspection plans marked as deleted using this BAPI?

C N,
The principal Idea is to migrate either
- the original amounts, the installment plan and last the latest payments (you migrate payment history)
- or to migrate the still open amount as one or more open items and subsequently an installment based on that amount.
Kind regards,
Fritz

Version 999 Project System Plan Data Issue

I am using transaction CJ9B to copy the Project System related plan data i.e. plan data at the WBS element level from Version 10F, period 1 to 12 in year 2010 to version 999, period 1 to 12 in year 2010. The transaction CJ9B runs successfully in the update mode. But when report CJI4 is executed for version 999, period 1 to 12 in year 2010 then we do not find plan data in sync with version 10F.
I analysed this issue, had a meeting with end user and blanked out target version 999 using source version 9ZR for the year 2010. Then I again copied version 999 from version 10F. Still plan data in version 999 do not exist as they are in version 10F. I have checked the version 999 master data in transaction OKEV. Integrated Planning for SPL, COPA, cost center accounting and business process is active. COPY Allowed is also enabled. Version 999 is unlocked as well.
Hence I am not sure why the copy functionality is not working fine for version 999, period 1 to 12 in year 2010.
Can you please take a look and revert with your opinion so that this issue can be fixed ?
Thanks,
Umesh

Hi,
If you want to copy all the plan date from 10F to 999, then in Txn CJ9B
select the indicator reset and overwrite in target version and execute in test mode.

Detail about System Copy / Migration. (URGENT)

Hi! Friends,
I got a new internal project. That is I have to build a new R/3 4.7 (SR1) 1.10 IDES system from the existing one to a new hardware (Server).
Details :
Current : SAP R/3 4.7 (SR1) 1.10 IDES with Kernel 6.20 NU
OS : Windows 2000 AS
DB : Oracle 8.1.7.4.1
Proposed : SAP R/3 4.7 (SR1) 1.10 IDES with Kernel 6.20 NU
OS : Windows 2003 R/2
DB : Oracle 9.2 or 10.2g
I have gone through the sap pdf docs. But still not sure.
My questions are :
1) How to take backup current system data. With conventional db13 or any other way ?

Hi! Linder,
Thanks very much for U R prompt reply.
1)     I am confused. <b>As SAP saying As I understand the process, if you wish to upgrade OS and DB in the same step, you must do a hetrogenous system copy.</b> And U R saying it it a <b>Since this will be a homogeneous copy, no migration key is required.</b>
2)     As I donot have Oracle 8.1 CDs so first either I have to install Oracle 9i or 10.2g DB software. In that case your first solution Oracle datafile copy will be vapplicable or not? If yes can U pl. give me the detail procedure?
3)     What is the easy option ? using tools like R3load, R3ldctl and R3szchk or using SAP installation disk at the time of DI installation?
4)     Can you please explain step by step of the procedure You must first make an export and then do an installation with the created export set instead of the export set from CD.
Waiting for UR reply.
Thanks and regards,
Pratip
