  Someone at - it successfully installed 11.2.0.3 RAC OEL 6 with udev rules file?

  I use +/etc/udev/rules.d/40-multipath.rules+ udev file to configure the permissions of device of multiple devices on path to e/s for use by o/s user grid.

  It is as follows:

          uid oinstall
          gid grid
        }
  .. etc.
  }
  

  However, has never work properly myself--must do something wrong that I saw a few sources Internet showing it works.

  As far as I KNOW, it is also with OL6 (as it is with OL5 and earlier versions), not a question of AsmLib or udev/MPIO. Udev is a Mapper devices used by the kernel. The decision is whether to add another layer called AsmLib. Personally, I have yet to see any convincing evidence that why should I increase the complexity of the kernel driver stack, adding AsmLib. We also had a few serious incompatibility with AsmLib issues in the past (where he with, caused compatible I/O corruption at the logical level).

  If you look at the clusters in the www.top500.org list, many of them have shared storage accessible via udev/multichemin Pentabytes and nothing else. MPIO has its roots as a driver of kernel for these groups. One of the reasons why we stopped years ago to use EMC Powerpath for our CARS that are wired to EMC San to shared storage.

• Why list of members of the period cannot be used in the rule file to limit the period?

  Hello

  HFM, I created a list of members period in the members list file.

  for example:

  Dim aPeriodLists (9)

  If HS. Dimension = 'Period' Then

  aPeriodLists (1) = "[FcstActMths]".

  ......

  ......

  ===========================

  ElseIf HS. Dimension = 'Period' Then

  If HS. MemberListID = 1 Then

  HS. AddMembertoList "January".

  HS. AddMembertoList "February".

  ===========================

  then in the rules file, I created a rule ondemand for datacopy real forecasts, but want to copy for the period of the membership list [FcstActMths].

  so as a rule I tried below:

  ......

  For each povPeriod in Hs.Period.List("","[FcstActMths]")

  .......

  but it does not work, the error indicates:

  object does not support this property or method HS. Period.List.

  =====================================================================================================================

  Then I found that, for the function of list of the object are not period dimension.

  But what I want is efficiency above.

  Is there another way could do?

  =====================================================================================================================

  I also tried to create the array, like this:

  Dim FcstActMths

  FcstActMths = Array ("January", "February")

  ..........................

  For each povPeriod in FcstActMths

  .........................

  =====================================================================================================================

  has not worked either, during the race, the table cannot limit in time that we select...

  Hello

  The reason why the rules does not run is because you canmot run rules

  for each period of your table, but only for the month that is on your

  Current POV.

  On this basis, you must change your rules and write something similar to:

  Table = (month1, Month2,... monthX)

  If instr (table, current month) > 0 then

  Run rules

  End if

  I'm sure it will work.

  See you soon,.

• How to get the substring of the field in the rules file

  Hello

  I use the Hyperion Essbase 11.1.2.3 version and try to build the size of the area. I have the Code area and description of the region in the source file. But the Description of the region is preceded with another character. Example - "AXX - Asia", "NXX - Netherland" and etc. I don't want to exclude "AXX -", "NXX" - during the generation of dimension. Please could you let me know how to remove these characters through rule files. I want to just generate rule with region Code file and description of the region without these extra characters.

  Source file:

  Region code | Region / / Desc

  AP | AXX - Asia

  NL | NXX - Netherland

  Build of contour should be:

  -AP (Alias: Asia)

  -NL (Alias: Netherland)

  Thank you

  Michel K

  Deker suggestion (using find and replace) is useful if you have a list of possible prefixes and that you are happy to have to update the rules file every time that this list is growing. I'm not a fan of this, personally.

  If the prefix length is always three characters then you must separate the first six characters of the code (the three characters and then space, hyphen, space). This creates two fields of the original; you ignore the first one and then use the second as an alias.

  To split a field into a State of charge, see: splitting fields

• Sub Consolidate() would come at the beginning or at the end of the rules file?

  Hello

  I wrote a routine void consolidate for a specialized consolidation process.

  Question: Sub Consolidate() would come BEFORE Sub calculate () in the rules file, or after?   Or is it important?

  Consolidation seems to work OK.   But I want to just make sure HFM will not try to consolidate first, and rules other calculations after (normally VB executes orders in the order they appear in the script).

  Thank you

  Mark Smith

  Hello. Either way will work. HFM knows that he has to look up subroutine names specific to specific points during consolidation. The order is listed in the help. Practically most people put first calculate given that most of the rules is there and that's where you make other changes.

• deleting a dminesion in the rules file.

  Hello

  We have an obligation to delete the dimensions before bulding metadata (for a cube of BSo), so can someone help me how to remove the rules hroguh dimensiont file.

  Thanks in advacne

  You cannot delete a dimension via a rules file.  Do you mean you want to delete all members before you rebuild the same dimension or actually delete the dimension altogether?

  The only way to remove a side is to have a 'model' or 'stub' expose without the dimension, and then copy it to your real contour (probably after erasure of all data).  If what you really want is to rebuild the dimension that contains only members in your source, then the build dimension 'Remove' unspecified setting can be used.

• Unable to load data using the rules file

  Hi all

  I am facing a strange problem while loading data by using a rules file:

  1. I don't get any error/kick. It gives fair attention No. data values are modified by this data file loading. But nothing will load inside.

  2. I tried with Maxl and directly from EAS but gettting same warning.

  3 has tried to block sending n to entires in the data file and it does not work (so no Dynamics members etc..)

  4. rule file validates correctly.

  5. I tried with different types of different files (Csv, Xls, Txt, etc.) but no luck.

  Any suggestions / ideas of what could be bad?

  Don't know what exactly was the problem, but I recreated the rule files and it solved the problem... May be a case of corrupted file rule?

• Field rule file date

  Hello everyone,

  Therefore the week with me to have problems of rule files.  I am loading a rule file that contains a date field in it as seen below:

  

  I made changes to my plan to allow typical steps and changed the date format as shown below:

  

  If I try to load this rule and ignore the field 'entry date' my file works fine.  Whenever I'm trying to load the rule with the active field it will not load anything and I get the message following (warning) with no error log:

  LoanASO.Loans of corrupted database

  Out of the prepared columns: [0]

  Rule reading information SQL for the database [credits]

  Rule of reading of the purpose of the database rule [credits]

  Active parallel loading: [1] block to prepare the discussions, block [1] write discussions.

  Out of the prepared columns: [0]

  Load data buffer commit elapsed: [0.016] seconds

  Completed import data ['LoanASO'.'] Loans]

  Out of the prepared columns: [0]

  Someone at - it ideas?

  A test, I manually load a date via smartview in my intersection and the exportation of essbase looked like the following:

  "Loan Principal GL'"effective Date. "

  "Dec', 'FY14' '098' 'L1' 'Act'"RR5' 'Active' "GL-4002" "Type-14" "1e2" 340849.45 "#Txt:12/31/2014" "" "" "

  I see that when I export it comes in a different format "#txt:12/31/2014" so I didn't know if I need to load different data.

  Also, I want to just take a big thank you to all those who respond to these positions.  I find this invaluable community and I hope it will be able to contribute more I become more proficient in Essbase and planning.

  Thank you

  Well, I finally got it and I think I learned my lesson here.  What was causing it was in the order of my articles.  One of my size was before my data so there get confused.  I need to be more careful of the order of my rules files I guess.

  Thanks for all your replies again,.

• Construction of dimension rules file

  Hello everyone,

  I have problems with a rules file, that I built with the alias of an attribute does not.  I get the error \\Column 13 ignored; No member corresponding (3326).  Here's a screenshot of my rules file:

  

  Column 1 - account

  Column 3 - Account Alias

  Column 8 - Type Code

  Column 11 - Code of call report

  Column 12 - agent Code (attribute) - related to the account (column 1)

  Column 13 - Code name of agent (aka "Agent Code")

  Here are the 13 column field properties:

  

  I'm still pretty new to these construction, so any suggestions are appreciated.

  Thank you

  Bret

  
  

  You specify the attribute to tag and that works. But you are not explicitly saying that the Alias attribute must be labelled

  I think that's maybe the reason why this does not work

  If you add another column to column 13, which will be the attribute and your Alias column would be column14

• ATTRPARENT dimension of the text attribute to several levels of construction with a rules file

  Hello

  My first post here.

  I'm trying to create the dimension generation rule to create a dimension of the multilevel text attribute and then combine with the basic dimension.

  So far, it is difficult.

  With regard to my experience:

  -J' have a relatively basic understanding of the rules of charge both with regard to the data loads and define the updates - I find this quite confusing area and the documentation does not help that much

  -J' only started using dimensions attribute, so for me it's a new concept, but we are already quite useful in certain applications

  -J' I try to automate the process of construction of dimension attribute, and then associating attributes with the basic dimension

  I use the following documentation as a guide:

  Building size attribute and associate attributes

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E12825_01/EPM.111/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?dotdimb.htm

  and / or

  Work with the attribute multi-level Dimensions

  http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/E26232_01/doc.11122/esb_dbag/frameset.htm?ch21s06s05.html

  (essentially the same source in both cases)

  The ultimate goal is to replicate one of our existing recently created attribute dimensions of a cube to another.

  I built a few versions of the required flat file and the corresponding rules file, but none worked.

  I tend to get the following validation error message:

  This field is defined as an ATTRPARENT. The following column must be a field of association attribute type.

  As I got stuck so I gave to the current actual attributes and moved on to experimenting with the sample / base cube.

  I built a flat file that is supposed to create a new dimension of text attribute named ABC with two attributes level structure:

  ABC

  A

  AA

  AB

  B

  BA

  BB

  and associate it with the dimension of the product in the following way

  200-10 AA

  200-20 AB

  200-30 BA

  200-40 BB

  The flat file looks like this:

  "AA"      "A"         "200-10"               "A"         "AA"      "200"

  "AB"      "A"         "200-20"               "A"         "AB"      "200"

  "AB"      "B"         "200-30"               "B"         "AB"      "200"

  "BB"       "B"         "200-40"               "B"         "BB"       "200"

  and the rule file has 6 matching columns with titles as follows:

  Level0, LEVEL1 ABC, ABC Level0, product ATTRPARENT0, ABC ABC0, LEVEL1 product, product

  all agree with what the documentation says.

  The first 2 columns are intended to define and create the dimension of the attribute, while the 4 next make association...

  I couldn't the above rules file to validate.

  The same validation error message appeared as previously:

  This field is defined as an ATTRPARENT. The following column must be a field of association attribute type.

  However when I tried to actually update the outline of the mistakes of dimbuild.err file has been created which gives some additional clues:

  \\ATTRPARENT column 4 must precede a numeric or datetime column attribute association

  Now... Finally the interesting part...

  Back to the documentation...
  

  I don't mind if the size of the attribute is generated and then those associated with step or in two separate steps.

  I try to do both tasks in one step only because that's what the documentation seems to suggest attributes at several levels.

  First of all I read:

  Note:

  If you work with a multilevel dimension attribute or with a dimension of the attribute of the digital type, Boolean, or date, the rules file requires an additional field. See working with Dimensions of the multilevel attribute.

  Yes, I work with a dimension of the multilevel attribute so the above statement applies (I guess) and so I'm going to see what works with several levels attribute Dimensions has to say.

  Then, I read:

  When an attribute is part of a digital multi-level, Boolean, or dimension attribute date, the source data must include columns for all generations or the size of the attribute levels.

  Fair enough... so I do what they say... my attribute dimension is at several levels, so I can assume that the statement above applies...

  So, I build my rule in accordance with the guidelines above.

  And then, as we have already mentioned, I get the error message about ATTRPARENT and when I read, it turns out that ATTRBPAREN cannot be used for numeric or date attribute dimensions !

  I'm totally confused at this point.

  What about the attribute text multi-level dimensions ?

  They are several levels but they are NOT numeric or date those!

  The documentation does not seem to tell what to do in this case...

  Anyone build something like that?

  What is the thing that I'm missing?

  What about

  I'm glad that you got to work. I tested and that is to create the dimension attribute and associate it with the rule of the load.

  You could ignore the construction size manually. Remove the attribute dimension. The rule1 go for the Dimension settings under the definition of Dimension tab. Then right-click on the product and change the properties. On the attribute tab, add 'Test' or whatever you want to call the attribute, and assign the text type. He adds the attribute and associate it with the basic dimension when it create the hierarchy. Note that the rules could actually be reversed where you create members of level 0 and then more later to create the hierarchy.  Of course you must pass the size of the attribute association to the other rule

  Well, you can do that, as you describe because your member 3 would be a shared member and shared members cannot have children.

  you could do something like

  Member 3A

  Member 4

  Member 6

  Of course if you really want to watch a member 3 with his children, I don't understand why you need a shared hierarchy you can get the update rollup member 3 in the hierarchy of the primary

• Ask about the load of metadata in Essbase using the rules file

  Hello

  In our application, we load the metadata using the Essbase rules file and here, we are faced with a problem. Suppose we have load a member of level 0, called "xxxx" under two different parent, assume parents are Parent_AAAA and Parent_BBBB. But our demand is the operator of consolidation for the first occurrence (i.e. under the Parent_AAAA) is '+' and for the Member shared under Parent_BBBB is ' - '. But, when we are load using rule file the operator of consolidation for the Member always shared loading as ' + '. Y at - it a trick to change the operator of consolidation for other than manually changing outline shared member?

  Pls help... Thanks in advance.

  I don't think that there is a way to change the default setting.

  However, what you can do is to have a different charge and rule file different text with only the metadata that you want to have an exception for shared members. In this way, you can get that you don't have to change existing rules file.

• Dimensions of building using rule files

  Hi team,

  I have EMP 11.1.2.2 and I build the dimension of accounts using the rules file. I use ESSCMD command INCBUILDDIM to build the size of the data file. Whenever I build the old military dimension is removed when I add new members of the dimension. Is it possible to add members without deleting existing members while strengthening the dimension using rule files?

  Thanks for your help.

  There is an option in Dimension build settings in the file rules - "Merge" or "Delete without precision.  If you do not want to remove existing members, you must select "merge".

• Confusion in a rules file editing

  Hello

  We changed a "payment" to "high paying" Member in our lines. So to avoid any problem loading data, we have updated our rules file to replace 'Payment' with 'payment high '.

  But the problem here is we also has other members as "payment of tax", "foreign payment«...»» Due to the update of the rule file as stated above, we get the error of loading data as

  "High tax payment was not found in the database"

  "Foreign high payment not found in the database"

  Can someone suggest me to solve the problem.

  Thank you

  If there are not too many of them after payment replace tou to high paying

  change tax high tax and high foreigner abroad

  Rule of charge replacements work from top to bottom, so once you make a change, you can change it again

• Format of column - rules file

  Greetings,
  I do an export of column level zero data and my goal is to replace the '0' by '#Mi '. In the export file, years are represented in the columns and data for Yr2013 start somewhere on line 100. When I try to load the file in the editor for preparing data for the creation of a rules file, the last column (Yr2013) does not display and I don't know what delimiter to use. Right now I use "all areas." I tried with .csv extension and comma delimiter too but same result.
  All the entries here?

  the editor examines only the first lines of 50-500 of data (depending on the number of lines is set on). I usually create a dummy file with 1 or 2 lines with all the columns to make all the map, then I go against the actual file. If you do not have when it actually hits a line with 2013 it will fail
