• 11.1.2.3 Essbase / OBIEE 11.1.1.7 question

  Hi guys

  Having a few problems getting Essbase and OBIEE going and thought I'd try here.

  In the OBI administration tool, I can create a database object ' Essbase 11', but it let me only to create a pool of connections 'Essbase 9'. " When I then "Import metadata" I get a message saying "physical database already exists, but it is not the same type of provider".

  My theory is that this is happening because the Essbase Connection Pool is to see that there is no 9 Essbase database and try to create one, but my db Essbase 11 already exist; This is why the error message.

  This theory is further justified by the fact that 'import metadata' only works if I choose Essbase 9 early on for the database. I'd be happy with that, but I get another question when I'm actually trying to use this connection/db on an OBI analysis, so I would dismiss version DB/connection as a first question since it is something obvious. Is - this standard to Essbase 9 just choose to the DB and the Connection Pool?

  FYI, this isn't packed OBI install Essbase. EPM is installed separately.

  -Daniel

  Dan,

  I can't comment on the logic of Oracle around the numbering... BUT also to have the same version of software and created everything with a Version 9 connection pool that works very well.

• Installation of OBIEE 11.1.1.7 on EMP existing 11.1.2.3

  Hello expert
  
  I did create a new installation of 11.1.2.3 on epm (planning, Coordinator, hfm) on my virtual machine now, I want to install 11.1.1.7 OBIEE
  
  I need suggestion on how to install on the same machine obiee...
  (1) I need a new instance of weblogic on another port or can I reuse the same instance (EPMSystem, running on port 7001)?
  (2) I have to install another essbase/studio/easServer/space to work, or I can reuse the existing?
  
  Thanks in advance
  NIC

  If you want to run weblogic EMP and OBIEE administration server at the same time, then you would need for them run on different ports.
  You don't have to select the option essbase OBIEE installation if you have previously installed products essbase.
  I install OBIEE in a different middleware that EMP home and separate the weblogic domains.

• Sorting of columns when my data source is a Cube ASO of essbase

  I need to sort columns of information OBIEE how, because OBIEE is sort by alphabetical order. We have sucesfully reach to order the columns when the data source is a cube of essbase block storage but does not work for a cube storage global essbase (ASO)
  
  Anyone have expercie on how to fix this?
  
  See you soon

  I don't think that your type of Cube will make a differenct in sorting. Default with Essbase OBIEE sorts columns alphabetically.

  The best way is to create a logical column with a logic that mimics the normal sort and use this logical column in the RPD "column sort order.

  For example if you need to sort the months while I was doing was to write a CASE statement and assigned to some of these months as they will be in ascending order and I used this column in the column logic month 'Sort order' present in the properties of the column.

  Months when "jan" then 100 when February then when 101 mar then 102... When end of December then 110 112 else

• Problem with shared member

  Dear all,

  I have a problem with the filter of analysis.

  

  When I used this filter, I can get this result

  

  but, when I try to get more specific members (gen5, account = 680 40').

  

  the result also returned no results. I tried to change the filter to only use the gen5, account.

  

  and outcomes is surprised me

  

  Gen3 and gen4 leave before changed to another Member. 680 40 is a shared member that I used to create a hierarchy of replacement for my aggregation. The original location is on the last picture shown.

  is there anyway to make my 2nd Blimpo work?

  

  Thanks in advance.

  Note: I use 11.1.7.0 and 11.1.2.3.500 with Cube of BSO essbase obiee

  Draw the generated MDX and check it out in detail. Most of these cases are down to an outline of a cube that is not necessarily suitable for use by a motor like OBIEE who is willing to dynamically alter its views constantly.

• Essbase Calculated Member retreival OBIEE reporting takes time

  Hello

  My OBIEE version is 11.1.1.7.0 years have a cube ASO in Essbase 11.1.2 as my source.

  There is a calculated member ASO which retreival in reports is time consuming.

  Optimization measures proposed to reduce the wait times in OBIEE.

  PS - We have integration Hyperion OBIEE in place already.

  The heads-up on the improvement of the performance would be a great help.

  Thank you

  Hello Sam,.

  OBIEE has many ways optimized:

  1. you can use the OBIEE cache management, hitting the first time the ESSBASE CUBE and the second time the OBIEE hit the cache, it improve your processing time.

  2. in your maybe views that you have limited the main information, I mean, OBIEE is a web application bi and if you try to pretend to get a lot of lines, this might give you some problems, as a work around you could limit your opinion, in your 'LINES PER PAGE' properties, and as a work around if you want to get a large amount of data that you download it.

  

  2. If points 1 and 2 shall not apply to your needs, perhaps to think, to use the cache of essbase optimization

  Hope this helps.

• Using filters Essbase to restrict access to OBIEE dashboards for multiple users

  Hello

  You can use Essbase filters to restrict access to the data in OBIEE dashboards so that users with no access to specific members are not able to see all data for multiple users.

  Any suggestions on how to go about it.

  Thank you!

  Hello

  Like any data source as an essbase.

  

  You can filter the data by the user, use a NQSESSION. to get the session the correct access.

• Unable to connect to essbase by OBIEE

  Hi all

  When I'm trying to connect to essbase by OBIEE I get error as below.

  Error: Connection failed error 269587920 essbase

  I'm trying to import data from essbase into OBIEE. I get this error when I'm trying to import with the same user on cloud that I managed to import. Could someone help me on this please.

  You will need telnet installed locally, it can be enabled in windows.

  Then the command prompt

  Telnet Server port

  for example, essbase running on the default port.

  Telnet cloudservername 1423

  The assumption is that essbase running on the default port.

  You also need to open ports for the application - Ports Essbase server port

• OBIEE 12 c will connect to Essbase

  Dear experts,

  I am trying to connect to OBIEE 12 c with Essbase from another server. Metadata import works fine, I had physical layer up to the presentation layer. But when I tried to view the members as the physical layer, I received the error message "[NQODBC] [SQL_STATE:HY000] [nQSError: 10058] a general error has occurred". "

  During the analysis to OBIEE, I managed to connect to the domain, which is the Essbase connection that I created. When you select the dimension to filter, I don't see members listed in the filter box but error message "failed to load (the ODBC driver returned an error) (SQLExecDirectW))".

  My environment:

  OBIEE 12 c is 12.1.0.2.0 Linux x 64

  Essbase 11.1.2.1 in Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard x 64

  Administration of BI tool installed on the client host Windows 8 x 64

  Someone at - he experienced this? Kindly need your help.

  I'm not sure if this is a problem of setting (path) at all. I've seen a lot of different "correctness" and recommendation in this regard - taste too for my personal use... and non of them changed the game well.

  I'm a bit desperate.

  Thank you very much in advance and greetings.

  André

  I had really any problems.

  The client computer, installed 11.1.1.9 OBIEE administration tool.

  An Essbase installed 11.1.2.4 customer, I installed this version as it corresponds to OBIEE 11.1.1.9 as who uses 11.1.2.4 drivers.

  Update bi_init.bat to include the ESSBASEPATH variable and adds the path to the variable ESSBASEPATH\bin

  

  Open the online administration tool, import

  

  Tested the connection to two 11.1.2.3.506 and 11.1.2.4 Essbase

  

  Imported fine.

• Problem of the Essbase hierarchy in the physical layer of RPD (OBIEE 11 g).

  Hello

  I have a scenario that follows

  

  
  In the screenshot above, we are not able to get the data accounts, Gen1 and Gen2, levels of accounts (taking a measure). We get level 3. Gen1, accounts which the Member 'Accounts' and Gen2 level, accounts Member "ALL_ACCOUNTS". When I combine it with measure only displaying not of any value (possibly summary data). Please let me know/possible error correction must be done as soon as possible.

  Kind regards

  Chandra Khalil.

  Are OK, if you're new to essbase you sure that you are supposed to have values of measures in gen 1 and 2 of your account dimension?

  It is a common behavior to aggregate not always things to the top of the dimension if it does not make sense from a functional point of view.

  It does not shock me for not having values for members 'Accounts' and 'ALL_ACCOUNTS' because in general you can not always aggregate accounts together.

  You can also get the products OBIEE physical query (MDX) in the same way that you get any physical motion in OBIEE and run directly against Essbase (or ask support Essbase guys for this) and validate it returns nothing, and there is a problem in the application itself.

• updating automated metadata Essbase in RPD OBIEE file?

  Hello

  Anyone know how it is possible to update the physical layer of the RPD file meta data? Bottom line is that we have integrated several essbase cubes into OBIEE. One of the cube is updated on a daily basis and all levels generated in some dimensions can change daily. The idea is to reimport the essbase (physical layer, activities and presentation) metadata automatically after calculation of cube essbase has been successfully completed. But I found no documentation how to automate administration tool.

  So any advice would be great.

  Thank you in advance,

  Stefan

  

  If you set your "Type of hierarchy" in the physical layer to the 'value' it will work automatically as a child without any table (Essbase is already working with parent-child relationships, so no need for any additional table).

• Can I load data in imported Essbase cube in OBIEE?

  Hi all

  I use OBIEEv11.1.1.7.I imported Essbase cube in RPD and I load sheet Essbase Excel data using smartview.

  My question is after you import the cube in OBIEE do I still need load the new data into Essbase cube or is it possible to load data directly to the OBIEE to excel for any Essbase cube?

  Thank you

  Hi GP.

  Essbase substitution variables can be imported and can indeed be referenced in OBIEE. So I think that you have a solution here :-).

  Thank you
