Web Analysis is degrading system performance (java.exe)

Hello Everyone,
We have got a situation here. Each time we start the web analysis studio, java.exe starts taking up 60-70% of the CPU. The system works almost fine for a few minutes, but after opening up a few dashboards and/or some reports, the system stops responding and reports take more than 30 minutes to open up. Task Manager shows up java.exe taking up 100% CPU.
The system configuration is as follows:
Intel Xeon 1.8 GHz Duo
2 GB Ram
Windows 2003 server.
Can anyone suggest any possible reason or solution?
Thanks.
Regards,
Sayantan

See if this helps. On one of your client machines set the Java heap size:
Start | Settings | Control Panel
Double-click Java, which opens the Java Control Panel
Choose tab "Java"
under "Java Applet Runtime Settings" click "View" button
under "Java Runtime Parameters" paste this as-is:
Xms64m -Xmx128m -Xss4m
If that still fails try tweaking those numbers for your environment, probably decrease them.

Hi i wrote a java program for scanning a system for java.exe 's

hi ,
i wrote a program which scans the system for java.exe 's and then it captures them in a linked list and then i
iterate through it for "\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_08\\bin\\java.exe and my aim is to return true in case the linked list contains the string "\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_08\\bin\\java.exe" and stop scanning the system.
If the linked list does not contain "Java\\jdk1.5.0_08\\bin\\java.exe" it should return false.
But my problem is the program is continuing to scan the system even if the linked list has "\\Java\\jdk1.5.0_08\\bin\\java.exe"
Any sort of help is appreciated.

Degraded system performance - possibly caused by external LaCie HD

I'm stumped over what to do to solve a serious performance problem with my iMac. Here's the setup:
Prior to today, I've been running:
An iMac Intel Core 2 Duo 17" (late 2006). The guts of it all OEM: 1 GB (2x512) RAM, 250 GB HD, SuperDrive.
A 500 GB LaCie USB 2.0 External HD.
Two external optical drives; one that can read/burn CDs and one that can read//burn DVDs/CDs. Both of these are connected via FireWire
Operating system: Mac OS 10.4.x
Network: Wireless Airport on iMac to DLink wireless router to Sympatico DSL. Using OpenDNS
Over the last few weeks, system performance (and by this, I mean basic tasks like copying a file or selecting a menu option or switching between apps) has degraded to the point where it could take several seconds simply switching from one app to another. No new software or devices were added over this time.
Running Apple's Hard Disk Utility, I discovered some "Minor" problems on the internal hard drive. I booted up in safe mode, which automatically forces a disk repair, and, upon running disk utility again, the disk appears fine.
Performance problems persisted.
I ran disk utility on the external drive. No problems.
Earlier this week, I decided to upgrade the OS.
The upgrade took 5+ hours to install. (I'd heard it can take a while but 5 hours seems silly).
Performance problems persisted.
Last night, I loaded everything I needed on the internal drive and backed up to the external drive. THen I proceeded to do a clean install of the OS 10.5.6. I ran Software Update to get the latest Java machine and other updates.
Still got problems. (Copying 2 GB of files I'd backed up on my external drive back to the internal drive took more than 2 hours! via USB 2.0)
Ran Hard Disk Utility again. Everything's fine. Still have performance problems.
Shut power down on all external drives and re-booted.
Ah-ha! Now we're gettin' somewhere. Performance seems normal. System is responding to basic commands in the what seems like a normal way.
But I need those external drives. First bright idea: Perhaps it's the cheap Dyntech 5-port USB hub that's gumming things up. To test, I disconnected the hub and connected the LaCie external drive directly to the iMac.
Back to the same old problem.
Ok -- so it seems pretty clear that the iMac and the LaCie drive, which once got along famously, are now like an old married couple -- grumpy and slow to respond to each other's requests. Again -- neither the LaCie drive nor the iMac internal drive report any problems via Hard Disk Utility. Files are being successfully copied back and forth albeit at a mind-numbingly slow speed. But for all intents and purposes, so long as the iMac is attached to the LaCie drive, it has all the zip and functional usefulness of my old Centris 610.
Any and all suggestions gratefully welcomed.

True unless you frequently attach and detach the drive so that indexing never is completed. To see if this may be the case with the drive attached, open Spotlight preferences, click on the Privacy tab, then drag the drive's icon into the list.
You can also try a few other things, but start by downloading and installing AppleJack - VersionTracker or MacUpdate. Read instructions and run the program to do some cleanup. For other maintenance tips see:
Kappy's Personal Suggestions for OS X Maintenance
For disk repairs use Disk Utility. For situations DU cannot handle the best third-party utilities are: Disk Warrior; DW only fixes problems with the disk directory, but most disk problems are caused by directory corruption; Disk Warrior 4.x is now Intel Mac compatible. TechTool Pro provides additional repair options including file repair and recovery, system diagnostics, and disk defragmentation. TechTool Pro 4.5.1 or higher are Intel Mac compatible; Drive Genius is similar to TechTool Pro in terms of the various repair services provided. Versions 1.5.1 or later are Intel Mac compatible.
OS X performs certain maintenance functions that are scheduled to occur on a daily, weekly, or monthly period. The maintenance scripts run in the early AM only if the computer is turned on 24/7 (no sleep.) If this isn't the case, then an excellent solution is to download and install a shareware utility such as Macaroni, JAW PseudoAnacron, or Anacron that will automate the maintenance activity regardless of whether the computer is turned off or asleep. Dependence upon third-party utilities to run the periodic maintenance scripts had been significantly reduced in Tiger and Leopard.
OS X automatically defrags files less than 20 MBs in size, so unless you have a disk full of very large files there's little need for defragmenting the hard drive. As for virus protection there are few if any such animals affecting OS X. You can protect the computer easily using the freeware Open Source virus protection software ClamXAV. Personally I would avoid most commercial anti-virus software because of their potential for causing problems.
I would also recommend downloading the shareware utility TinkerTool System that you can use for periodic maintenance such as removing old logfiles and archives, clearing caches, etc.
For emergency repairs install the freeware utility Applejack. If you cannot start up in OS X, you may be able to start in single-user mode from which you can run Applejack to do a whole set of repair and maintenance routines from the commandline. Note that AppleJack 1.5 is required for Leopard.
When you install any new system software or updates be sure to repair the hard drive and permissions beforehand. I also recommend booting into safe mode before doing system software updates.
Get an external Firewire drive at least equal in size to the internal hard drive and make (and maintain) a bootable clone/backup. You can make a bootable clone using the Restore option of Disk Utility. You can also make and maintain clones with good backup software. My personal recommendations are (order is not significant):
1. Retrospect Desktop (Commercial - not yet universal binary)
2. Synchronize! Pro X (Commercial)
3. Synk (Backup, Standard, or Pro)
4. Deja Vu (Shareware)
5. Carbon Copy Cloner (Donationware)
6. SuperDuper! (Commercial)
7. Intego Personal Backup (Commercial)
8. Data Backup (Commercial)
9. SilverKeeper 2.0 (Freeware)
10. MimMac (Commercial)
11. CloneTool Hatchery (Shareware)
12. Clone X (Commercial)
The following utilities can also be used for backup, but cannot create bootable clones:
1. Backup (requires a .Mac account with Apple both to get the software and to use it.)
2. Toast
3. Impression
4. arRSync
Apple's Backup is a full backup tool capable of also backing up across multiple media such as CD/DVD. However, it cannot create bootable backups. It is primarily an "archiving" utility as are the other two.
Impression and Toast are disk image based backups, only. Particularly useful if you need to backup to CD/DVD across multiple media.
Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQs on maintenance, optimization, virus protection, and backup and restore.
Additional suggestions will be found in Mac Maintenance Quick Assist.

Are you sure there is not another web analysis web application process running, have you checked the processes running on the machine, you may have to kill or stop one of them to release the lock.

Web Analysis Report performance

Hi All,
We are performing a drill to bottom level action by double click the account dimension in Web Analysis and SmartView. It will returns 9000+ rows records. In WA, it takes 160 seconds but SmartView only takes 20 seconds. We tried to increase the Java Heap Size from the WA Application Server and Java Plug-In Client but doesn't help much. Any idea why their is a big difference in performance? From the application log file in Essbase, we can see WA and SmartView are talking to Essbase in two different syntax.
Thanks,
Manoj

Hi, I agree with Gerd - there's not much tuning you can do in Web Analysis (as compared to FR).
In looking at the query see if you can:
- move single hierarchy members into the POV
- have children and parent in the same row
- arrange dimensions in inverse outline order (faster for essbase retrieves)
- remove excessive formatting/suppression (or conditional formatting/suppression)
- push report calculations back to the data source
We have also found that using lots of dynamically calculated members also slows down reports, so try and limit the number of these.
Maybe build your report up from the basic report to see which dimensions are causing the issue. Or alternatively start with your report and remove columns ;-)
With regard to wishing to show only 2 items, you could add advanced conditional suppression to suppress rows with values.

Java.exe sizes greater than 350M , web report often error

HI , friends
My ie is 8,and webi4.0.
the web report file(universe) has 63 reports,hundreds formulas，
open the report java.exe sizes greater than 350M.
every time edit report ，only edit fews formulas....then the edit does not work.
and edit Data Access,or refresh ,then error: An error has occured.....(Screenshot)
only to log off ,and shut down IE ...
After a while open the IE, Sign in web report... ...again...
I set the RAM as a virtual hard disk,and set up IE explorer buffer memory to the NEW hard disk,
but error still exists.
please help me , thanks.

Hi,
On Windows 7, you may set the Java maximum Java heap size to 1536 MB in Java Control Panel -> Java -> Java Runtime Environment Settings, Runtime paramaters for both User and System.
-Xmx1536m -Xincgc
Note that
depending on the desktop OS, the maximum Java heap size could vary, you'd need to test it and find out the ceiling to that OS.
-Xincgc is to enable incremental garbage collection instead of waiting for whole lot chunk of garbage to be collected.
Hope this helps,

System performance degrades after server migration ???

Hi Friends,
System performance degrades after we migrate our BW 3.5 Server (Production) from UK to Germany.
for details :
1. Data is coming to Informatica server from Informatica its going to POSDM Server (Point of Sales Data Management) from POSDM we are running pipes and data is coming to BW (Delta Queqe)
so before Server Migration it was taking 2 Hrs to load 4 Million Records
After Server Migration it is taking 4 Hrs.
Please help out to find the reason for this.
Note : Server Ram , Hard Disk , Speed is same on both Servers
Thanks
Asim

Note : Server Ram , Hard Disk , Speed is same on both Servers
Are you cahnge any application or database parameter (the OS and all patch'es are the same?)
How you doing migration? Very low information... Are you check the network configuration are the same( for example check the network speed 1G or 100MB).
Are you trying to analyse the St03N and St04 t-codes?
Regards.

Performance of a report in Web Analysis??

Hi Guys,
•How do u improve the performance of report ?
•In a general store 10 products are there, In that only 8 products are sold. I need a report for the products which are not sold(for 2 not sold). How can u do that report?(apart from Product normal dimension are there,we have a data warehouse for all)
Thanks

Java issue with web analysis

Hi,
Web analysis is taking too long to start on client machines. I had this issue a couple of years ago with java 1.4.10. hyperion came back with a solution to increase the memory java uses on both the server and the client.
»Xms128m -Xmx256m -Xss2m » in the Java plug-in (Control Panel>Java plug-in>Advanced)
I cannot see on java 1.5.11 how to add this in. Java 1.5 was meant to make web analysis faster. In some environments it has but in this partilcuar case web analysis is very slow.
I would appreciate it if anyone could suggest a way to make web analysis faster.
The server environment is unix. Can a cache setting be added to java?
The client issue is the most pressing one.
Thanks in advance,
Nathan

Hi,
Go to Java Control Panel, select the Java tab. You'll see Java Applet Runtime Settings section. Click View and fill the Runtime Parameter with your settings.
HTH,

Can System performance degraded by Z development

Hi,
Can system performance degrade by more z development? Is there any idle
ratio with standard system/reports to Z development in % terms?
Regards,
Shail

Z programs are just programs not written by SAP, but added by the customer.
The performance of the Z programs depends on the experience of the Z programmer.
There is no ideal ratio, I just depends how much must be programmed different from the standard.
And oyu should also keep in mind, that if a Z-program replaces a standard program that it will have broader/narrower functionality, so it will need a different amount of time.
There is no optimum defined, you must find out whether something can be done better.

Hyperion Analyzer 7.x to System 11.1.2 Web Analysis

Dear All,
Is there any approach to migrate Analyzer report from 7.x to 11.1.2 or 11.1.1.3 ???
I found that Oracle supports Hyperion Analyzer 6.5, 7.0.1, 7.2, or 7.2.1 to System 9.

So, is there any way to do? In case no migration tools, is there any workaround method for example,
1. export / import apt files...
Thanks a lot
Thomas

The Reporting and Analysis migration tool is shipped with 11.1.1.3 and the documentation lists that it supports v7 Web Analysis. It just connects from the source relational database to the target.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12825_01/epm.111/hs_migration.pdf
I would give that a try.
You should always backup your Hyperion_Home and the reporting relational database if you need to revert.

Web Analysis Webapp install where Client need Java 1.6

Hello
because our JRE rollout to the clients increases the JRE Version , the version lag between the one Web Analysis needs on the client and the one available increases steadily.
Therefore it would by nice if someone describes in a straightforward manner the way to install Web Analysis Web Application that needs a Java 1.6 on the client side.

Unistall Java after successful EPM installation to fix Web analysis

Hi All,
My EPM Installation (Workspace, SS, IR, ESSBASE, and Web Analysis) and configuration has been completed successfuly, but the web analysis studio is not opening up at all. I am thinking unistalling and installing Java may fix that, do you guys think that uninistalling Java may effect my installed EPM applicaitons in any way or any suggestions ?
Thank you,

Typically this is due to incompatible version of JRE running WA. I assume that you're opening WA from a client machine?

Java.exe vs iexplore.exe

We're running Java 1.6.0_16 on our machines to access Oracle Forms for our E-Business system.
We are running the Java applet with the "next generation Java Plug-in" disabled (as this causes issues within our system)
I've noticed that our install is seemingly not consistent.
Some users who launch java (via the program) while getting into the forms, get an "iexplore.exe" entry in their "control panel - performance" while others get a "java.exe" entry.
The users who get the java.exe are more prone to crashes and "loss of focus" when in the forms.
ALL users get the "java.exe" entry in "control panel - performance" if the next generation java plug-in is enabled.
How is it possible that the same install can lanch in two different ways?
It almost seems like the action of disabling java plug-in is not being recognised.
How do we remedy this situation to only get the "iexplore.exe" running in control panel?

No, I was recommending you launch the applet using javaws, then close the browser, since the browser is entirely irrelevant to the JWS launched applet, which is now free floating on the screen like a JFrame (e.g. outside a web page/browser).
Not on our application I'm afraid.
We have the initial html/xml JTF Framework page a user logs into, there they have a list of their responsibilities, some of these responsibilites will take them into other html/xml pages, others will launch java and into the core application.
As the java is launching another web page is opened, it's almost like a placer, un-interactive window, which then leads to the actual app running java opening.
So you basically have 3 windows open, the initial web page, a "placer" web page and the actual app.
We can close the initial web page without a problem, but this is a stable window. When we have crashes it is this window that remains unscathed by the crash, and what is used to launch the app running java again.
If we close the second html "placer" page it will immediately crash the app running java. In fact it has a disclaimer saying:
IMPORTANT: Do not close this window. Closing this window will cause Oracle Forms-based applications to close immediately, losing any unsaved data. This window may be minimized safely at any time and may be closed once all work in Oracle Forms-based applications is complete.
Closing the actual java app will naturally leave the other two windows open.
My problem is that during the launch process, some users get a java.exe program launching while others the aforementioned iexplore.exe. In both cases Java is running and the app is functioning correctly, it's just that where java.exe is being displayed as the active program, there seems to be a tendency for the program to crash, while those displaying iexplore.exe are more stable.
I'm trying to understand why the exact same call would in some situations launch iexplore.exe and in others java.exe.
As far as I can see, setup and install is identical. As previously stated, if "next-generation plug-in" (in Java Control Panel) is enabled, then the entry will always read java.exe.
My thoughts are that depite this next generation plug-in being disabled, this is not being picked up as being disabled in some region of the java and is causing us instability.

Export to Excel in Web Analysis

We are in the process of upgrading to Web Analysis (and the rest of the products for that matter) 11G and we're having an issue when someone tries to export to excel. It pops up and wants the user to drill down to excel.exe so it can launch excel and open the report.
Has anyone seen this before? If so what is the resolution?
I know there was a config fil in Analyzer 7 that we had to update a excelpath variable, but I don't see anything similar in 11g and I can't find a good admin guide for Web Analytics 11g.

With System 9 and SmartView you also have the option to Export to Excel in
Query Read - preserves its connectivity
Fully Formatted - preserves its formatting.

Web Analysis is degrading system performance (java.exe)
