Unregister EAS from Shared Services

Hi Together,
I've a problem that an installation over an existing installation (same version) registered my eas to shared services what I don't want to have.
I red in the documentation of EAS that the backwords way isn't possible.
Somebody got a trick to bring EAS back to native security?
Thank you very much
//Thomas

Hi,
Your question is not clear. First of all, EAS will not be in native security mode. Essbase will be native security mode. From my undrestanding, I think you have externalized essbase security to shared services. If you want to bring that security back to native essbase, then:
1. Stop essbase server.
2. Go to $HyperionHome/AnalyticServices/bin
3. rename the existing Essbase.sec to Essbase.sec.X
4. copy essbase.bak_preUPM as Essbase.sec
5. Start essbase server.
Hope this helps!

Unregister Essbase/EAS from Shared services

Hi Is it possible to unregister essbase, EAS from shared services? if so can some one please guide me unregister. we are on EPM 11.1.1.3
Thanks

Hi,
I've a similar issue with my customer.
In fact we have an an application with several databases and end users have read access on one, write acces on another and finally calculation accesses (but only on few calc scripts) on the last database.
SO, in shared security mode we can't reach all these requirements, beacause access are granted at the Essbase application level.
Therefore, the only solution I've found to put Essbase in stand-alone mode is to drop the essbase.sec file and recreate the essbase applications thanks to EAS or maxl commands.
For EAS I've found a topic on this forum, and the solution is to edit the olapadmin.properties file on the installation path of EAS server and to swith the value HUBProvisionEnabled=true at false.
You have to stop and start the services to do that but it works. And when started, you can use the EAS default login.

Administration Users from Shared Services...

Dear Experts,
Am using OEPM 11.1.1.2
I have one basic question on Shared Services Users...As we are using the default login of Essbase administration services after installation and configuration to
login to the server and this is already changed to Shared Services Security during Configuration..
My question is can we be able to create user related to EAS from Shared Services or still we need to use the same default 'admin'? If so,
In any case if i want to provide one user with only "create/delete applications" for Essbase....i will go and do it in Shared Services.....
but if i want to modify something in Essbase...i still need to use EAS for modifying the application/Database information
How can i create multiple users in EAS?
One More, i don't see any project for Essbase Administration Services like Essbase, APS created in Shared Services after the applications have moved to Shared Services Security Mode...Is this correct? Please clarify
Moreover, in my case userid "admin" is used for all the Application groups in Shared Services...So if i change the password for this "ID", will it reflect to all the application groups who are privileged to...
Thanks

Firstly, Shared services is a centralized User management console for all hyperion applications. Once you externalize your security to shared services, You can create as many users as you want in shared services and assign him access to Essbase. How ever, You will have to go to EAS and do a "refresh security from shared services" for changes made to users in shared services to reflect in Essbase.
For projects to appear under shared services project list, you will have to register each product with the shared services.
If the same admin ID is used for all applications, Yes, the password change will reflect to all applications he has access to.

Error from EAS - "refreshing security from Shared Services failed"

Hi,
I was using Native only security in HSS for Essbase 11.1.1.3 and EAS allowed me to Refresh security from Shared Services. (Essbase security was already externalized to HSS.)
However, after I added "MS Active Directory", and provisioned a MSAD user to a native Planning group, EAS errors out with "refreshing security from Shared Services failed" .
I checked Essbase security and that MSAD user is not added to Essbase.
From Essbase Log I see:
Essbase failed to get roles list for [ESB:Analytic Servers:servername:1] from Shared Services Server with Error [32:1062:Failed to connect to the user directory [ HSS'sMSADname].
I then tried to remove MSAD from our H Shared Services and see if this problem goes away. However, MSAD still shows on the left panel menu in H Shared Services. How can I get rid of MSAD?
Any suggestions?
Edited by: user643332 on May 12, 2010 12:05 AM

Hi,
Are you sure you have removed it from shared services, you may have just disabled it.
You must restart the shared services application server to apply any changes made.
Cheers

EAS Console - Not getting the option "Refresh security from Shared Services"

Hi,
In EAS Console 11.1.2.2, I am not getting the option "Refresh security from Shared Services" when I right click on Security (under Essbase Servers).
However, I can see this option via EAS Console 11.1.1.3 (current existing version).
Could you please let me know how can I get this option in EAS Console 11.1.2.2? Is this by any chance related to the option "Externalize Users"?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks a lot join for this information and your kind support .
One more question:
The owner of the Planning application is user 'hypadmin'.
I can see the SIDs of user 5001 a little different in both the versions. Is this ok?
Hyperion Planning 11.1.1.3 (Existing Environment)
USER_ID     SID ROLE SYNC_PSWD OFFLINE_ENABLED HUB_ROLES
50001          native://DN=cn=0fa19f8241602600:3b78a0e0:130926693d2:-78ba,ou=People,dc=css,dc=hyperion,dc=com?USER 3 2 0 5019
Hyperion Planning 11.1.2.2 (New Environment)
USER_ID     SID ROLE SYNC_PSWD OFFLINE_ENABLED HUB_ROLES
50001           native://nvid=54aec0428a3ba591:-44b7ca9b:13f03c114d2:-5d99?USER 3 2 4507
I have not yet performed "Externalize Users" yet in the new environment (11.1.2.2) throgh EAS Console. Is it required in the newer version 11.1.2.2?

Essbase EAS - Refresh Security from Shared Services

Hi All,
Just went live with Essbase. We are using MSAD Groups in Shared Services for our users. I noticed that if we add a new user to a provisioned group, they don't automatically get access to Essbase. I believe I have to select 'Refresh Security From Shared Services' in EAS. I am nervous about doing this with users in the system as I don't want to accidentally boot them out. Is there any risk? Reports stopped? Users forced to logout? Smartview implications?
I feel like I did it before and disrupted some users during development but I am not sure.
Much Appreciated,
Mike

Thx. I just did it and it didn't seem to disrupt anything. I tested with a user with a smartview open, a report running and a WA dashboard on screen. It did mention that after refreshing the essbase server would be disconnected and i would have to reconnect but it didn't actually boot me out or disrupt any process.
I guess it's okay to do on a live production system. ?
Thx,
Mike

Refresh Security from shared services fails.

Hello all,
On our environment I went into shared services with admin rights and changed the native directory password. And from then on I have not been able to refresh the security of essbase server in EAS. I get the following error,
Essbase failed to get roles list for [ESB:Analytic Servers:Servername:1] from Shared Services Server with Error [32:1062:Failed to connect to the user directory [Native Directoy].]
Also I would like to know if native directory password means the password "password" which comes as default for the username admin. Am new to essbase and was under the impression that native directory password means the password "password" which came as default for the username admin. Please help, this is a production issue which started only because I changed the native directory password and now I need to get it fixed.
Thanks.

Please confirm the version of the Shared Services (HSS) and Essbase, EAS server.
Also let me know, if the HSS, ESSBASE & EAS installed on the same box ?
If they are on the different servers, ensure that there is no network communication issues.. (try performing telnet on the port from each other servers)
E.g Open command prompt - telnet servername port (telnet HSS_SERVER 28080), hit enter.. if it shows the blank screen .. it is successful and there is no communication issues.
Also you could try..
On EAS server, add the below in windows registry under EAS... and restart the machine..
ESS_CSS_JVM_OPTION1 = -Dcom.hyperion.css.socketTimeout=60000
if you are not comfortable updating the registry contact you admin and ensure to take the backup before editing...

Error with Active Directory Synchnorisation from Shared Services to Essbase

Thanks !!!

Hardcode IP addresses instead of the server names in the essbase.cfg file and the Shared Services CSS.XML file for the Shared Services server references.
Restart SS/Essbase, provision an MSAD user, then do a Refresh from Shared Services in AAS.
Verify your MSAD userID then shows up as an Essbase user in AAS(Display User list for the Essbase server)
As long as the MSAD users show up in the user list, they should be working.

Refresh Security from shared services.

Hi
When ever there are any changes in the security at shared services(LDAP) , I am doing a refresh security from shared services(@EAS)
-in order to get these changes from shared services.
Which is taking 30 minutes refresh ever time in our systems.
Is there any other way to make quickone?
Version - 11.1.1.3
Thanks

strange? We are still on 931 (Essbase on 9.3.1.6) and refreshing security is not necessary at all any more. It is even deprecated functionality. I always though that 11 did not have it too.^^^The end (or most of the end) of Essbase.sec came in a late patch of 9.3.1. It isn't there yet in 11.1.1.3, I think. It is in 11.1.2. There was not a lot of fanfare about the change although it's there in the patch notes.

Refreshig security from shared services

let us assume that we are creating 5 users in shared services and provisioning them with different privileges. when refreshing these users security from shared services to essbase , i need to refresh the security of only one particular user role, how can i do that?

if using 9.3.1 later version u can use Shared servicves patch whcih will automatically update the security
or esle right clik on EAS security > refresh security from shared services > all users or currecnt users
which will update ur security
Refresh each user or group individually using MAXL command:
alter user username sync security with all application;
alter group groupname sync security with all application;

Refresh security from Shared Services fails - System11

Hi All,
WHen refreshing the Essbase security from Shared Services in System 11 we get the following error:
Error 1051522: Essbase failed to get group's member tree with Error [CSS Error: Unknown error: Could not get exception message from exception object]
We see the same error in the Essbase log.
In the Shared Service Security CLient.log we get the following warnings:

Has anyone come across this?
Thanks for your help.
Seb

Hi Seb,
I take it you are using NTLM as your external authentication.
The error message means that it can't see css-9_5_0.dll in the path, if you are on windows make sure the path contains <drive>:\Hyperion\common\CSS\9.5.0.0\bin\
If it doesn't update the environment variables, not sure if you need to reboot it may pick it up straight away, you can check by going to a command prompt and running echo %path%

How do I remove previous configuration of Essbase Server from Shared Services?

Hi All,
I'm trying to reinstall Essbase Server (on a new server; we've upgraded the Essbase Server hardware) and reload data but the current install believes I've already configured it despite removing EssbaseCluster-1 from Shared Services Application Groups. Is there something else I have to do to get the new install of Essbase Server configured as a new Essbase instance?
Thanks,
Ryan

I did the install as PTH0RC and my inventory.xml is configured correctly, but I get the following message trying to run a simple view

Problem with Business Rules access from Shared Services

Hello,
When trying to access Business Rules from Shared Services (expand Business Rules and click on the application) I get the "Refer to the Security Guide to configure security permissions for this application" message, but the user is fully provisioned for Business Rules. It happens even logged on as admin. Access from Administration Services works fine. The version Hyperion system 9 (9.3.0.1). What is wrong? Help, please.
Thanks,
Timur

You can't access Business Rules from Shared Services. This is no different from any other application - Planning, Essbase, etc. You can provision users to the application roles, but you can't actually do anything with the application, other than security, in Shared Services. You use Admin Services to maintain Business Rules.

Error migrating Security from Shared Services.

Hi,
I was using Hyperion Planning 9.3.1's in Import/ Export utility in D:\Hyperion\common\utilities\CSSImportExportUtility\cssimportexport\importexport\CSSExport.bat. I'm trying to export Security from Shared Services into xml format. I get the following error message:
Malformed \uxxxx encoding
Anyone with similar experiences? Hyperion's impexp.pdf makes the steps so complicated!!

Answering my own question:
Since I am in Windows, I was using backslashes in my paths when I updated file:
importexport.properties
The error went away after I changed the backslashes to forward slashes in all paths.
