Upgrade/Migrate 9.3.3 Planning apps to 11.1.2.2

I am in the next step of our upgrade from 9.3.3 to 11.1.2.2 and ready to migrate our Planning applications. I have read many of the posts related to this and have a general list of steps, but I have slightly different situation than what I have seen posted before.
To summarize, we have installed 11.1.2.2 on new servers. Our old 9.3.3 is still up and running on different environment. I have sucessfully completed the following:
1.     Foundation Services/Shared Services installed and up and running and users/groups successfully migrated.
2.     Essbase and EAS installed and up and running. All Essbase applications (except for the Planning apps), have been successfully migrated from 9.3.3 to 11.1.2.2.
3.     Planning has been installed and is up and running. While there are no Planning apps in the new system, I can open the Planning Administrator via WorkSpace.
So the next step is to get my Planning apps moved/migrated from the 9.3.3 environment to the new 11.1.2.2.
To complicate matters, we are switching from SQL Server repository in 9.3.3 to Oracle in our new 11.1.2.2. So the first thing we did was to create a new Oracle schema for our Planning app repository and using SQL Developer migrate wizard, we copied/migrated the tables and data from the old SQL Server to Oracle. It appears that all the tables and data were successfully copied into Oracle.
Our old Planning application is called PlanTest. The application owner is a native user called planadm. My intended migration plan (and my questions) are:
1.     Do I create a new blank Planning app called PlanTest using native account planamd in 11.1.2.2?
2.     If I use my new Oracle repository for this blank app, will it wipe out the old converted data or will it try to upgrade/migrate it?
3.     Or..should I take a backup of my new converted repository first. Then drop/recreate the Oracle Schema (so no tables) and let Planning build the repository when I create the blank Planning app? Then capture the owner SID in the new HSP_USER table. Stop Planning. Then overlay the database backup of 9.3.3 over the newly created repository and replace the owner SID info. Then Restart Planning.
          ** My concern: Is the Planning app repository table structures the same between 9.3.3 and 11.1.2.2?
4.     Open Planning and hope that the application PlanTest appears!
5.     Use Planning upgrade Wizard to finish the migration and upgrade the repository.
6.     Push/Create app to Essbase.
7.     Export data from old app to .txt load file and reload into new Planning cube.
8.     Convert/Migrate Business Rules using info from John's blog.
I am sure I missed something. Any suggestions or comments on these steps would be appreciated. Bottom line is I need to get this app (and several others) migrated successfully with all metadata, security, forms, rules etc. working. Rebuilding them from scratch is NOT an option.
Also, to clarify. This is a Classic Planning app. We are not using EPMA.
Thanks,
Mike

Following the steps, the upgrade/migration of the Planning application worked successfully. The app and forms were all migrated and was able to push to Essbase application successfully. The only issue was security. While the users/groups seem to appear in the migrated Planning app, none of their security access/filter info migrated. We have Planning security defined down to the member level in the application and it appears none of that successfully migrated, so we would need to manually re-assign all of that security. Any thoughts of what may have happend or step I may have missed?
Also have moved on to attempt migration of the Business Rules to Calc Manager. Using John's 2nd alternative method from his blog, I export the rule from 9.3.3 EAS to HBRRules.xml file, copy it to the appropriate 11.1.2.2 folder, select "Migrate" on the PlanTest planning app in Calc Manager, select the app and Plan type and all seems well with the Import screen even indicating that the Rule and variables were Inserted. But I never see the rule appear. Could this be an "owner" issue or is there something I need to do to the .xml file before the migration step?

Upgrading Planning App in 11.1.2.1

I am upgrading the 9.3.1 planning apps to 11.1.2.1. I can see the apps in the relational repository as well in drop down Planning web client. But when I run the upgrade wizard, I dont see the apps coming up there. Can any expert let me know what could be going on here.

When I tried creating the shell application, I got the following error

Currency UDA in EPMA Planning app

Hi All,
Version 11.1.2.0;
I've just upgraded a Classic multi currency Planning app to EPMA. The currency conversion is a manual HBR rule and was working fine in Classic.
Now after converting the rule to Calc Manager, I get the validation error for the part where it looks for the Entity members currency UDA.
( @ISUDA("Entity","NZD") )
I believe that Business Rules (HBR) validate the code against Essbase application while Calculation Manager does it against Planning. Can someone point out how I may resolve this issue. I haven't worked with Calc Manager before.
Cheers,
Abhishek

I was pointed to the below bug, which I believe was fixed in some patch for 11.1.1.3. Due to this one would have believed that 11.1.2.0 would have been fine.
Hsp_Rates dimension members other than Hsp_InputValue and Hsp_InputCurrency (for example, HSP_Rate_USD) do not validate successfully against Planning in Calculation Manager. To work around this, deploy these rules to Planning and launch them without validating them in Calculation Manager (7163027)
I did deploy the rules without validating and they run successfully when launched from Planning. I'm pretty sure now that this bug has somehow remained in 11.1.2.0
Thanks for your responses
Cheers,
Abhishek

Upgrade/Migrate Planning application from 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3

I have installed 11.1.2.3 on Window 2008 R2 servers. Our old environment is on 11.1.1.1 is still up and running on different server(windows 2003). I have successfully completed the following:
1.     All Hyperion products (HSS,BIPLUS,CALC MGR,EPMA,Planning,FDME installed successfully and everything working fine.
2.     I am able migrate the all FR reports successfully(Export/Import method) and Yet to test the reports after application migration.
3.     I created Planning apps in the new system which is similar to old application , I can open the Planning Application Administrator via WorkSpace URL.
My question :1) Can i migrate Planning repository DB schema from SQL server 2005 to New application schema on SQL server 2008.
                            (There is any update required before and all the repository table of 11.1.2.3 similar to 11.1.1.1
                   2) How can i migrate the Business rules to Calc manager(.i.e 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3)
                   3)How can i migrate the FDM application (.i.e 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3)
Please let me know if you need any further information.

First of all 11.1.1.1 to 11.1.2.3 direct migration is not supported so if you have issue upgrading planning then unfortunately that may be the reason.
SQL Server 2005 to 2008 should be ok but if you are concerned then upgrade the sql server 2005 version to 11.1.2.3 then use LCM to change database versions.
Business Rules read the following support doc - "Hyperion Business Rules (HBR) to Calculation Manager Migration White Paper (Doc ID 1528121.1)"
FDM - Upgrade utility.

LCM migration - Unable to see "Planning Dev Applications" Under "App group"

----- Situation ------
* We have hyperion 11.1.1.3.24
* Objective i- trying to perform a LCM file-migration from our DEV environment to UAT
* DEV has only one PMA enabled Planning Application (“budget”), few FR reports & other related artifacts.
----- So far --------
* Successfully Exported these 4 (Shared-services, EPMA, Planning & FR) from our DEV
* Successfully IMPORTED first 2 (Shared services, EPMA).
* Although the migration-Status shows failed in my case, noticed all the artifacts have been successfully Migrated. (Noticed Similar claims have reported in other posts as well.)
But, I am stuck on the Third Step, Planning Artifacts Imports. Since, I don’t see “Planning Dev Applications” Under “Application Group” (in shared-services console).
What Should I do. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
[do I have to create new Planning Application under the same name “Budget” in our UAT & start performing Import ? ]

Yes, you are correct. Thank you. I guess, either I am having some issues OR I am not doing something correct.
So far -
Created a test Planning App in workspace & Deployed. I can see that Planning App under ==> Shared-Services/Default-Application-Group.
Still Checking -
Tried to create a New Application Group (Under shared Services / Application Group) in our UAT. However, only getting the following options though.
APS Servers
Business Rules
Default Application Group
Essbase Studio Server
Essbase:Database server
Foundation
Reporting Analysis
I need to create a New Planning Application Group (in our UAT). Still checking on how to create one.

LCM export for planning app in version 11.1.2.2 is failing

Hi All,
We are working on migrating the planning apps from dev to PROD (both are on 11.1.2.2) and I am trying to take an LCM export from my dev planning app by using the LCM utility but this LCM export is failing with the below error:
Error message WHILE exporting the planning app from Shared services using LCM: The LCM export is failing with this error message:
Error in migrating artifact, "/Plan Type/Plan1/Data Forms/VAT/Existing/Runoff/Renewal".
Can not find form: Renewal
Even though LCM export failed I still copied the folder from dev to prod
Error on the prod server:
I am copying the exported application folder from the DEV in prod servers in D:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\import_export path. This is the error message I get when I click on the app name under file system in shared services
Listing file unavailable for file system repository - D:/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystem1/import_export/TEST/HP-TEST/resource. Error parsing application artifact listing metadata. An invalid listing or listing having empty tags.
However I still went ahead and tried to import it but getting the below error:
EPMLCM-37009: Error parsing application artifact listing metadata. An invalid listing or listing having empty tags.
Please let me know what is wrong and what can be done about it. Any help would be appreciated.

Try doing it from Shared Services and see if it is still failing. I think you are using an old xml file (someone deleted the form and the xml still has it).
So better start over from Shared Services and that will generate the new export.xml file.

Can't open a Planning App as a non-admin user..

All,
I am having trouble getting a non-administrator to open/view a Planning application. I have a Test_User in Shared Services, and as long as I provision him to be an administrator for my Planning app, he is able to access it fine, view dataforms etc. But as soon as I change him to an interactive user or planner , he is no longer able to access the app. In the latter case instead of opening up the app and displaying the list of available dataforms, I get an error message saying, "An error occured while processing this page, please check log for details."
I get the above problem both while trying to access the app in workspace or directly thru the Planning URL.
This problem doesn't extend to opening dimension or application libraries. I.e. i can get all user types to access these EPM libraries, as long as they are provisioned to be 'Dim Editor' / 'App Creator' in Global Rules.
I think I am making some basic error with the app access, but can't put a finger on it.
Appreciate any help.
thanks,
Akshay

Hi,
Did you check if your app is set to maintenance mode in planning web console?
-Go for Administration-->application settings--->Application maintenance mode-->make sure the application is enabled for "all users".
If this happens for the first time after you create users, the security might not have refreshed to planning from shared services.
-Go for Administration-->Dimensions-->select a member-->assign access-->choose" Migrate Identites" ( this should refresh the security from shared services to planning).
Hope this helps,
-Nra

Upgrade & Migrate from V11.1.1.3 to V11.1.2.2

Hi All,
Currently we are using Hyperion Essbase Server V11.1.1.3 in Windows Server 2003 R2.
We are in a plan to Upgrade & Migrate to Essbase Server V11.1.2.2 in Windows Server 2008.
We are only using Essbase w/o Shared services.
Could you please provide me the below information:
(1) Whether LCM Utility can be used to perform this Upgrade & Migration from V11.1.1.3 to V11.1.2.2 ( not using the Shared Services)?
(2) Any documents w.r.t this Upgrade & Migration using LCM Utility?
Regards,
Swathi.

Registering Planning app with shared services

Hello all.
I created a new classic planning app (11.1.1) with the intention of mirroring our production app. I've copied that outline from the production app to the new app. I've also exported the sql server database used by the production planning app and restored it to the new app. Everything seems fine so far.
My question is about the registration of the new app in shared services. The production app has about 35 MSAD authenticated users. What would be the process for registering the new app with shared services and setting up users from the production app. I didn't specifically register the new app when it was created.
I'm a little apprehensive. I don't want to do anything that might affect the current production app. How can I register the new app and add users without affecting the current production app. Is it as simple as going to Administration -> Applications Settings and clicking on "Register Shared Services" and setting up new users? Or are there other steps that need to occur?
Any help is very much appreciated.
dave

You shouldn't need to register as you would of created a blank planning application at first that will be registered with Shared Serices, then the provisoning of users/groups in shared services for the planning application would be done, then you would migrate the relational database across.
You wil probably need to edit the shared services URL from within planning but no need to reregister.

Thanks Mende1; I know that PPC apps won't function on Intel machines but I can migrate the Universal apps, right? There is such a large gap between Tiger and Mountain Lion - can I still migrate files directly from one to the other taking the Universal apps as well? Sorry, I'm not very computer savvy!

Product Instance has pre-9.0 licenses installed. These can be migrated via the License Planning page.

I am looking at upgrading my UC cluster from 9.1 to 10.5 and when looking at ELM I see the following message at the bottom of the Inventory > Product Instances page:
Product Instance has pre-9.0 licenses installed. These can be migrated via the License Planning page.
I have searched around but I cannot find any info on this message or how i am supposed to migrate the licenses.
Has anyone seen this before? Any suggests?
Thanks in advance

You would only get that if you upgraded to 9.1 and didn't upgrade the licenses through ELM. I would consult with cisco tac (licensing) or your cisco partner to validate you're fully in compliance and that nothing was missed when you upgraded to 9.
Check out this tech note on license migration from 8.x to 9.x to verify you do this before going to 10.5.
http://www.cisco.com/c/en/us/support/docs/voice-unified-communications/unified-communications-manager-callmanager/116231-technote-cucm-00.html
It basically involves going to the license planning page, performing the 'license upgrade', select the product instance and counts then send that all over to licensing @ cisco.com with a license request.
Good luck.

Unable to create Planning app

Gurus,
I have been unable to create planning app.
I created the datasource successfully in workspace.
Then when I try to create the app (so that I can dump the files from different environment), I get the message... APPLICATION ALREADY EXISTS IN ESSBASE.
I have tried to delete the application in Essbase and again when I try to create it, it again gives the same message. Do I need to do anything to avoid it.
Thanks

John,
Yes this is the environment.
Finally, the environment is up and running.
I have some planning apps and some essbase apps. I have already copied the essbase apps and loaded data, and Agged them.
Now I am trying to work with the planning applications.
I created the datasource.
and now I am trying to create the planing apps so that i could dump or do LCM to migrate, however, when I try to create the apps, it gives me the error message saying that the apps already exist in essbase.
One thing I need to tell you is that the server had essbase apps before. However, we uninstalled EPM cleared everything out and then installed brand new EPM on it.
Thanks for your guidance.

Migrating from 9.2 Planning to 11.1.1.3. Application Version Invalid error.

Can somebody please help me, I have performed all the steps of migtaion.
Clearing the version filed of HSPSYS table.
Restoring the 9.2 palnning database onto 11x database.
Chaninging the SID for user id 50001.
Restarted Planning.
When I try to login to Planning application the following error comes...need help,
The application Vesrion is invalid. The existing version is 4.1.1. Expected version is 11.1.13
Thanks
Vince

Hi,
In version 11 you don't need to clear any values from the system tables
You will always receive that warning message about the versions being different, it should also display a migrate button instead of a login button, fill the admin username/password again and click migrate, if the SID is correct the planning apps repository tables will be updated ready for version 11.1.1.1.3 otherwise you will get an error occured message.
