CrystalReportViewer setEnterpriseLogon

Hi,

 

I am using CrystalReportViewer for writing my own viewer.

 

I have came across some steps for this, where it is recommended to setEnterpriseLogon. However I could see that is deprecated.

 

Could you please suggest what is the usage of setEnterpriseLogon, and as it is deprecated, what should be the correct alternative.

 

 

Thanks!

Connecting to monitoring JMX interface using LDAP user.

Hi All

 

Is it possible to use any other authentication type other than "Enterprise" in order to connect to the JMX interface exposed by the monitoring service? for example LDAP. It seems it is only able to authenticate "Enterprise" users, however, if I try to use a valid LDAP user it is not able to connect.

Q1. Can HANA store all the data carried by SAP BI in HANA "in-memory"?

Q2. Are there certain BI tools that are available only in SAP BI and not possible in SAP HANA due to architectural differences in nature of Datawarehouse and Database tools now and in future? If yes, what are those?

Q3. How does a SAP BI developer use HANA? Does he write HANA Sql Scripts on SAP BI along with ABAP code for BI customization?

Cons of Complete upgrade without stopping servers/user activity

$

Hi Experts,

 

As per SAP Best Practice, it is recommended to stop the servers on the source except for CMS, IFRS and OFRS and on the destination except for CMS, IFRS, OFRS, Connection Server and no user activity is performed.

 

However, could you please share experience or advice what are the cons if the above mentioned servers are not stopped or if there's a user activity when the upgrade is in process.

 

Regards,

Diego.


Cons if the ownership is changed to administrator

Hi Experts,

 

Could you please advice what are the consequences if the ownership of the report is changed to administrator ? I understand that there could be some security concerns if the security is applied based on report ownership like "Modify the object that the user owns" or if a SI_Owner placeholder is used while scheduling the reports, but other that the one mentioned could you please share any other anomalies pertaining to it ?

 

Regards,

Diego.

Invalid Session - WIH 00013

$

Hi,

 

We are on BI 4.1 SP5 patch 6 installed on Windows 2012 and have 2 instances of Tomcat running on 2 different Web servers.We have chosen F5 load balancer for these 2 web tiers. Network team has configured Load Balancing and gave us the URL. When performing a fail over test we have encountered with the below error message

" Invalid Session. Please close your browser and log on again. ( WIH 00013)

 

When user is in the Load balance, For ex if Server A has been choosen by the Load Balancer in Round Robin method then after some user activity we will stop Server A and by design user should be redirected to Server B with out any loss in the session. But this is not happening in our case,in the fail over test when a server is stopped user will see the above message and after some time ( may be after 1 minute) when user refreshes the page he will be directed to the Launchpad home screen.

 

How can we get rid off of the invalid session error message? We have SSO enabled with Windows AD authentication and this issue if for Launch pad.

 

Any suggestions on this are much appreciated

Tomcat Clustering and Load Balancing

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I have a scenario where i need to use third party application F5 for tomcat load balancing for 2 different instances.Do we need to perform Tomcat clustering first and then use these them in F5 Load Balancer?

 

We have enabled Load Balancing from F5 for the 2 tomcat servers and in the fail over state this is not working as expected.Session is not directing to the alive web server. When a single instance of tomcat is stopped ( if it is the one used by LB) then it shows Invalid Session - WIH 0013 error on the Launch pad screen and after some time by refreshing the page it will take to the launch pad home screen ( we have SSO enabled here). Any user activity will be cancelled in this case and will be taken to the home screen.

 

How can existing session can be carried over to next available/alive web server in fail over scenarios? Is there any option available from tomcat? 

 

We are using tomcat 7 from BI 4.1 SP5 on windows 2012

Actually where do we need to write the code and deploy. please comment some links or help me in getting this.

 

Can anyone please help me in providing the PATH for SDK to be changed, so that I can overcome the challenge.

Placeholder %SI_STARTTIME% always shows its value 1 hour before from real time of the server

$

Hi to ALL once again,

 

 

I`m here again because I`m having some troubles with BO, but this time an "old" version.

 

 

Version: BO XI 3.1 SP5

Symptom: placeholder %SI_STARTTIME% always returns 1 hour before current time.

 

 

For example, I performed a test and scheduled a report to generate a file in the filesystem and its name was "TEST-%SI_STARTTIME%.pfg".

In the test, the "last changed" file property was 1 hour ahead (thus right time) than the variable.

 

 

Thanking into account that this specific server is not java based (as per documentation: The Web Intelligence Processing Server uploads the document instance to the Output FRS.), is there any chance to force the "tz" for the server?

Or you know anyhow to change the behavior of this placeholver?

 

 

Note: this is occurring in China, where doesn`t exist day light saving.

 

 

Thanks again in advance!
