Voyager SSAS 2005 SSO connection

Hi,
We are using BO Xi 3.1 and we have sso is configured for Infoview, now we are trying to configure SSO till database for Voyager (SSAS 2005), and we receieved the error message, We made change in the krb5.ini file with an entry of "forwardable = true", as well as on SSAS server, made changes for service account like spn entry and delegation for the service account but still no luck.
Here are couple of things we observed:
1) When i gave windows username and password in CMC for cube and create voyager reprot it works fine.
2) When i use SSO then it failed with error saying " An Error has occured while attempting to connect to the OLAP Server. Failed to Intialize (The component for microsoft OLE DB Provider for analysis service 2008. returned the server error (an error has encounter in transport layer; The peer prematuarly closed the connection)
3) I login to sql profiler to see the credentails it passes but when i try to create voyager with SSO it doesn't passes the windows credentails instead it passes "anonymous" login.
I opened the tech support ticket but i didn't getting much help from them.
Thanks for the help in advance.

Hello,
Sorry for my English.
Can you send the SETSPN commands you ran?
The Voyager connections, the server name you have put in capital letters and the domain name in full format?
Sorry.

SSAS 2005 put measures in the same folder

I created a SSAS 2005 cube and connect to it from Excel 2007. I have a measure group sales. The key of the table is receipt no, line no. Now I create a new measure transactions, which is count distinct of receipt no. SSAS 2005 automatically assign
the new measure in a separate measure group. The problem is in Excel, sales related measures are now in two measure groups (the sales and newly created one for the transactions). I find it a bit of awkward to go to these two folders to drag these measures
since they are requested together a lot.
Is there a way to put these measures in same folder? I know there is a folder property for each measure in BIDS, but that will just create a new folder under existing folder for the measure group. Thanks.

Just mark the distinct count measure as Visible=false, rename it to Transaction Count Hidden. Then create a calculated measure in the right measure group with a calculation that simply references the hidden measure... An alias calc measure.

WIS 10901 error when creating a webi report based on OLAP unv (SSAS 2005)

Hi,
I'm using two VM.
Machine A is running SSAS 2005. I'm able to create SSAS cube. Everything is ok
Machine B is runing BO XIR3.1. I'm able to create webi report on relational DB without any problem or opening samples.
Both VM machines are on the same custom network and I'am able to ping both. SQL managment server studio is installed on both machines. I'm able to manage SSAS from B also and not only from A.
Creating unv with BO designer on machine B is OK, connexion is runing and universe has been created and published on the BO server
But when I create a webi report from B, using my OLAP unv based on SSAS located on machne A I recieve following error message :
Une erreur de base de données s'est produite. Le message d'erreur est le suivant : . (WIS 10901)
thanks for your help,

SSAS 2012 (SP2) - Connecting to a Named Instance in a Failover Cluster

I posted this question some months ago and never got a resolution...still having the same problem. (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/4178ba62-87e2-4672-a4ef-acd970ac1011/ssas-2012-sp1-connecting-to-a-named-instance-in-a-failover-cluster?forum=sqlanalysisservices)
I have a 3 node failover cluster installation (active-passive-passive) configured as follows:
Node1: DB Engine 1 (named instance DB01)
Node2: DB Engine 2 (named instance DB02)
Node3: Analysis Services (named instance DBAS)
Obviously, the node indicated is merely the default active node for each service, with each service able to fail from node to node as required.
Strangely, when I attempt to connect to the SSAS node using the cluster netbios "alias" (dunno, what else it would be called, so I apologize if I am mixing terminology or somesuch), I am only able to do so by specifying the the alias _without_ the
required named instance. If I issue a connection request using an external program or even SSMS using Node3\DBAS or Node3.domain\DBAS, it appears that the SQL Server Browser is offering up a bogus TCP port for the named instance (in my case TCP/58554), when
in reality, the SSAS service is running on TCP/2383 (confirmed with netstat) -- which if I understand correctly after much, much reading on the subject is the only port that can be used in a failover cluster. In any case, I'm puzzled beyond words. As I think
through it, I believe I've seen this issue in the past, but never worried about it since it wasn't necessary to specify the named instance when I had SSAS requirements... It's only a showstopper now because I'm finalizing my implementation of SCVMM/SCOM 2012
R2, and for some strange reason the PRO configuration in VMM gets all butthurt if you don't offer up a named instance...
Thank you much for reading. I appreciate any help to get this resolved.
POSSIBLY NOT RELEVANT...?
I've properly configured the SPNs for the SSAS service (MSOLAPSvc.3) and the SQL Browser (MSOLAPDisco.3), with the former mapped to the SSAS service account and the latter to the cluster "alias" (since it runs as "NT AUTHORITY\LOCALSERVICE"
as is customary) and have permitted delegation on the service and machine accounts as required. So, I'm not getting any kerberos issues with the service...any more, that is... ;) I'm not sure that's important, but I wanted to be forthcoming with details to
help solve the issue.

When connecting to SSAS in a cluster, you do not specify an instance name. In your case, you would use the name of the SSAS IP address to connect.
See:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn141153.aspx
For servers deployed in a failover cluster, connect using the network name of the SSAS cluster. This name is specified during SQL Server setup, as
SQL Server Network Name. Note that if you installed SSAS as a named instance onto a Windows Server Failover Cluster (WSFC), you never add the instance name on the connection. This practice is unique to SSAS; in contrast, a named
instance of a clustered relational database engine does include the instance name. For example, if you installed both SSAS and the database engine as named instance (Contoso-Accounting) with a SQL Server Network Name of SQL-CLU, you would connect to SSAS using
"SQL-CLU" and to the database engine as "SQL-CLU\Contoso-Accounting". See
How to Cluster SQL Server Analysis Services for more information and examples.

Opened a SSAS project through connecting to analysis service server.. now need to put into source control

hi there:
I've connected to a SSAS project using connecting to analysis service server ... After a few modifications, I'd like to save it under a different name and eventually get put into the source control...
Can someone tell me how to do that?
thanks

Hi Cat_ca,
In your scenario, you can create a
Import Analysis Services 2008 Database project to import the AS database to the project, and then change the database name following the steps below.
Right-click the project and select Properties.
Go to deployment option on the left pane.
Change the Database name.
Then deploy the project to Analysis Services server. The screenshot below are for your reference.

Trying to use Linked Servers in SQL 2005 to connect to RDB 7

I'm looking for detailed info on how to set up a linked server in SQL 2005 to connect to my Oracle RDB 7 database (running on VMS). I'm able to connect via odbc using VS.Net and Sql Server 2005 Reporting Services. I'm not sure if I need to use the ODP.NET or not. I have created a generic linked server, but it requires me to use the OpenQuery function to access the data, which is not giving me the functionality I'm looking for.

Hi doanpq,
Please download and install OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro 9.0, which exposes OLE DB interfaces that you can use to access Visual FoxPro databases and tables from other programming languages and applications. Please see:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14839
Then, please follow up the following article to create a linked server:

What does AverageOfChildren aggregate function in SSAS 2005 actually do?

Folks,
Have any of you been playing around with SSAS 2005 to have worked out
what the AverageOfChildren aggregate function actually does?
I was expecting it to do the equivalent of a simple AVG() with a GROUP
BY in SQL, but it seems to be doing something additional to that.
No-one in the team I work in has been able to work out what exactly it
is doing.
Any info would be appreciated!
Cheers,
Kenneth

This very question was recently discussed in the public SQL Server OLAP newsgroup:
http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.sqlserver.olap/msg/c662e201b99678bc
>>
Aggregate Function Average of Children does not work
This behavior could occur because
AverageOfChildren,FirstChild,LastChild,FirstNonEmpty and LastNonEmpty are
semi-additive and treats the Time dimension different from the other
dimensions. Please refer to the following link for details:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175356.aspx
The description in above link (BOL) is not very clear about
AverageOfChildren, and I have forward this feedback to the proper channel.
The AverageOfChildren only applys when aggregating via Time dimension.
Actually, when you try to create a new measure in cube, when you select
usage, you could see "average over time" which is for AverageOfChildren.
To get the result of average behavior you want, you may want define a Sum
and a Count measure, then create a calculated measure (in the cube script)
which divides the two base measures.

Portal logoff not clearing business objects SSO connection

Is there a way to clear the saved SSO information from the business objects session in the background?
The scenerio;
On a computer shared by multiple users
UserA Logs on to the SAP Enterprise portal, navigates to an iview that uses OpenDocument to run an xcelsius dashboard. Single signon works great and dashboard is displayed. This dashboard resfreshes on open and data retrieved is correct based on this users autorizations in BW. The user Clicks the logoff link in the masthead of the Enterprise portal, the portal session and its SAP logon ticket are closed and the Portal logon page is redisplayed.
UserB logs on the the SAP Enterprise portal, navigates to the same iview, the dashboard runs and retireves the data, but the data displayed is based on the BW autorizations for UserA.
I verified that the SSO connection that userB is using to retrieve data is left over from UserA. (I did this by simply opening an InfoView window and it shows the userid of UserA in the Welcome message.
Closing the Browser window between each user login takes care of the problem, but is not really something we can count on our users doing.

Hi Gail,
We are also facing same issue as you had, Integrated BI launchpad with Portal and SSO is working fine via portal. But issue is already opened reports or Business objects will not clearing as you had after log off and lo-gin back.
Can i setup any property to clear the BOBJ cookies or Can i create sap note for logoff option button on BOBJ via portal.
Can you please suggest me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Naveen

While Browsing SSAS 2005 Cube Getting Error " The following system error occurred from a call to GetOverlappedResult for Physical file: Logical file: '' : Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service."

I followed the above path and did not find file 688.DIM_EMO.EMP_ID.fact.map in folder PARTITION_2013Q31.0.prt. Once I rebuild the Index (ProcessIndex) for this partition, I am able to See file 688.DIM_EMO.EMP_ID.fact.map.
But again when next time I get error "Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service", Then 688.DIM_EMO.EMP_ID.fact.map will be dropped and will not be available in folder PARTITION_2013Q31.0.prt.
Anyone had similar issue. Could you please share your experience and resolution if any.
Thanks Shiven:) If Answer is Helpful, Please Vote

Hi Shiven,
In your scenario, the issue occur at sometimes, right? Base on my research, the issue can be caused by that calculation estimate exceeded available memory. Possibly due to possible number of dimension members and sizes of keys. And 32bit environment didn’t
allow for any expansion to the SSAS memory space.
To avoid this issue, please try to use userva to fine tune the 3GB setting down to 2900 since /3GB is the likely
cause (has been for most other customers who encountered the same problem before). The KB Articles below discuss that setting in detail.
How to use the /userva switch with the /3GB switch to tune the User-mode space to a value between 2 GB and 3 GB

SSAS can't connect to services via IP; only domain

Is there some FMS-specific reason why a sendAndLoad function in SSAS couldn't connect to a site on an IP address? Are there any configurations that would need to be set to allow/deny this type of connection? We have a server instance that can only connect to sites hosted on fully qualified domains.

IPs should work for this, so I'll have to go for a few meta reasons perhaps
1. Perhaps the DNS is resolving to an IP that's not the one being targetted, we should probably double check that
2. Since a lot of load balancers end up serving a different IP to handle the traffic than is initially targetted we may be getting redirected via DNS but IP isn't working.
I'd confirm from that machine directly if possible - if not then I'd check if FMS from its general SSAS can connect to the IP as desired - if it can then perhaps there's a bug we're unaware of in there.

BO on SSAS 2005 vs SSAS 2008

Hello,
We have been testing a BO OLAP Universe on top of a SSAS cube.
We have BO XI 3.1 base version on windows.
We observe this behavior.
Consider a BO query against an OLAP Universe ( A few calculated measures thrown in ). We isolate the query using the tracer.
1. If you run the MDX query against SSAS(2005) through Management studio it comes back in a few seconds.
2. If you run the equivalent report in BO against SSAS(2005) - It runs for 1 hour and times-out.
3, If you run the same report in BO against SSAS( 2008) - the response comes back within a minute.
We do know that BO query generated is not the most efficient query. Howver the above observation makes us wonder - if query is not the only factor in the performance. Does 2005 treat requests differently, may be putting some on low priority or could this be some kind of issues due to load on 2005 server and Management studio some-how smartly integrated to get a faster response?

Hi Didier,
Happy New Year and thanks for your responses.
"But if you are running the same MDX with SQL Server Management Studio and BO on SSAS 2005, it is hard to explain such differences." - Yes ..thats what concerns me..unless somehow this data is getting cached.. in which case BO should return the same.
But yes, i agree..the performance seems to have improved with 2008.
"What is the volume of data returned by the query?" - not much...may be less than 10000 rows
"Are you doing formatting and/or local variablles in the document (I assume it is Web Intelligence)?" - none.. no additions at all.. its a report out of cube universe objects only.
Here is a sample MDX. (Have nodified it WITH - to enable running it in Management studio)

Window 8.1 / Windows 8.1 Pro compatibility differences connecting to remote SSAS 2005 via SSMS 2014

Hi,
Should there be a difference of compatibility between Windows 8.1 (laptop A) and Windows 8.1 Pro (laptop B) when connecting to a SSAS instance on a remote 2005 SQL Server via SSMS 2014?
I am able to connect to the SSAS from laptop A without having set any permissions explicitly, or otherwise. While on laptop B it cannot connect, stating"Forcibly Closed by Remote Host" as the error. I have run a SQL Server Profiler trace, laptop A
logs in as Administrator, again no permissions were set explicitly, compared to laptop B that attempts to login as anonymous.
I also tested connecting to the SSAS via Excel 2013 from both laptops. Laptop A connects without issues whereas Laptop B gives an error pertaining to the transport layer.
Why is this happening? What is the problem and how do I go about fixing it?
Thank you.

By default, SSAS only support windows account. Have you configured the HTTP access to SSAS? If yes, what’s the authentication setting? Can you connect to SSAS via the URL in SSMS? Anyway, just for test purpose, change the authentication to windows Integrated,
disable Anonymous access for the pump

Configure SSO Connection from SAP Enterprise Portal to BOE Server

Hi Guys,
We recently installed a BOE Server and want to connect it to our SAP Enterprise Portal. What we need is just to display the Crystal Reports via Enterprise Portal. We have set up the following:
SAP EP with AD Authentication
SAP EP configured with SNC to SAP BI7 system
SAP BOE XI 3.1 - SAP Integration Kit
BOE Server configured with SAP Authentication via SAP BI7 System
We've also set up BOE IK iviews and URL iviews pointing to existing reports in BOE. However, when we access it from EP, it prompts for a username and login to BOE. Is there a way to configure these so that there is no prompt for login to BOE server and SSO is used? Is it also possible to have a service account (e.g. domain/crystal) that will run the reports in BOE everytime a user accesses a report from SAP EP?
Let me know if this is at all possible

Hi,
You should configure InfoView for SSO first, which required infoview.xml file modification, using windows AD default authentication. If you want to utilize the OpenDocument URL for iView then you also need to configure OpenDocument.xml file for SSO also. The SAP portal must have trust relation with the SAP BW server so the Windows AD token can be authenticate with SAP BW server.
If you want crystal user to run all the report then you will lose data security. It can be done by hard coding user name and password in the report properties and database logon but the SSO capability can be accomplished only by windows AD, SAP or LDAP.
For more details check BOXI Admin guide and SAP Integration Guide.
Thanks,
Muhammad

VS 2005 ODBC Connection for CR XI Report

Post Author: Mohan56
CA Forum: .NET
Hello,
In VS 2005, I am using the CrystalReportViewer to display my report on Windows Form. This report uses the ODBC connection (defined in System Data Sources Name (DSN) as infimacs) to an Informix database, using NewEra Informix7 driver. In Crystal Reports XI, when I run the report a window pops up (first time and not on refresh) prompting me to enter Login and Password for the ODBC connection and also does to same thing in the Windows Form. My question is how do I pass this Login/Password info from VS 2005 to CR XI, so the Login/Password window is not displayed to the end user ? Following is the current code which is not working. I am a new user of VB and CR and I thank you in advance. Mohan56
