Connect to HiveServer2 from IDT when transport mode is http
Hello,
We want to connect to HiveServer2 from IDT (SAP BI 4.1 SP7). The standard connection to hive works. But we need to add some parameters to the url of the jdbc connection to HiveServer2. From other applications that uses hive driver of hadoop, the url to connect to hive is this:
jdbc:hive2://ip_server:10001/default;transportMode=http;httpPath=cliservice
We have tried to add those jdbc parameters to the connection to HiveServer2 in IDT, in the connection panel (as JDBC propierties). It fails, with this error: "CONN_PROPERTIES".
We have changed the jdbc.sbo and simbahive.sbo files to add those parameters to the url of the hive connection, but it has not work:
(adding parameters transportMode=http;httpPath=cliservice; we have tried with this sintaxis: hive.server2.transport.mode=http;hive.server2.http.path=cliservice. In any case, the error is the same)
(connection in IDT)
(test connection)
Do you know if is there a way to add those parameters so that the connection works? Or, simba driver doesn´t allow it?
Thanks,

Crystal server - Not able to assign permissions to a group or user
I have created a folder myfolder and uploaded reports in it. I have created a group reportviewer and a user rptviewer. This rptviewer user is member of reportviewer group. Now I right clicked on myfolder and clicked on user security and then clicked on Add principals. In the window that got open I have selected the group reportviewer and moved it to the selected users and groups and then I clicked on Add and Assign security. Then I selected view
from Available access levels and moved it to assigned access levels and then clicked on ok.
After this I logged out and logged in from user rptviewer expecting to be able to see the myfolder folder containing the report but I don't see any folder.
Can anyone let me know the reason for the same? Kindly reply.

Report viewing on WebI 4.1
Hi guys,
We have migrated from Desktop Intelligence XI 3.1 to Web Intelligence 4.1 recently and I found one thing a bit annoying - not sure if there's a workaround for it on WebI.
Reports are displayed on separate pages in WebI whereas on DeskI everything was conveniently displayed in one single page. Ok you had to scroll down but on WebI you have to go through different pages.
Is there a way where you can set WebI to display reports like DeskI or it's just how WebI software is designed and nothing can be done about it?
Thanks!

BI Platform Support Tool Issue: Question on Host Agents
Question Please on the Host Agents - I'm installing Introscope 9.5 stand-alone monitoring using Toby's blog (http://scn.sap.com/community/bi-platform/blog/2016/04/05/new-complete-tutorial-for-setting-up-introscope-95-stand-alone-monitoring-for-sap-bi-platform-4x). At Step 3 - installing the diagnostic Agent on each BI node. I've already installed the SAP Host Agents across nodes for the BIPST. Is the Diagnostic Agent 7.4 referenced on the Introscope install a new version? Does it take the place of the Host Agents already installed? Can you provide more guidance on the Introscope Diagnostic agent and the Host Agents installed for BIPST? Thank you Kim

suggestions on Web Intelligence 4.x books, for best learning
We are in the process of selecting a vendor to help us move from XI 3.1 to BI 4.x, and I wanted to get a jump start on Web Intelligence 4.x learning.
I've been doing WebI XI 3.1 for about 10 months, decent exposure during that time. In consideration of the following courses, I was thinking maybe do some book training (which I like) for the first course
BOW310 - Web Intelligence - Report Design I (2 days)
BOW320 - Web Intelligence - Advance Report Design (2 days)
I found this book which looks decent. Any ideas if there is a 4.2 book coming out soon ?
I'm at the point where I need to start looking at this, so waiting is not an option, unless the 4.2 book is out in a month or so.
Thoughts ?

Maintaining SAML and SAP SSO together
I need some help on configuring SAML SSO in BI platform.
I’m in the process of externalizing our BO(4.1 Sp4 patch 4 with Sql 2008 DB) so that it can be accessed from outside company network. We're using default tomact 7 bundled with platform package.
Our BI server is traditionally connected with single sign on to SAP netweaver portal and BW.
For this initiative, I need to connect our server directly to siteminder, so that any LDAP user will click an external URL. The user will be authenticated by IDX server and will be redirected to BO with SAML SSO. They don't have to log in again to BO again.
We’ve different kinds of contents like webintelligence, xcelcius dashbaords, design studio applications, analysis office applications.
I went through the admin guide, still not clear about the steps. It neither explains if SAP and SAML SSO can stay side by side. I also had a look at SAP note 1795949. I coudn't find anything relevant to my requirement
I basically need to know
- Keeping SAP SSO intact, how can I configure SAML SSO in business object. I’m looking for some step by step instructons.
- For SAML, what are the steps to be done in siteminder part. For ex, in case of SAP SSO, the keystore needs to be imported to portal and BW and connection to be created for BO.
- Do I need to again configure LDAP authentication on top of SAP and assign aliases?
- Will SAML support all applications mentioned above?
SAML is very new to me, please help.

Disabling 'Administrator' user in BO
We want to ensure that no one mis-uses the Administrator user in BO,
while one option is to reset the password to something that no one knows (steps of password reset as per 1679970)
but we are considering that can we disable the Administrator user.
Will it impact the system ?
are there any background activities which can only be run under this user.

Excessive audit records as 'Invalid token'
Hi All,
Out Environment & setup Setup:
-----------------------------------------------
Clustered Environment.
SAP BO version : 4.0 SP8 (No Plan to upgrade soon).
Server OS : Wnidows
CMS & Audit Repository DB: Oracle 11G (Same Database, but different schema's).
We've been seeing excessive audit records as "Invalid token" in our audit database with user name as null. Attached the screen shot of the Logs.
The IP address (1 & 2) logged are the Central logger IP addresses of the windows server, which logs the server information to another server.
This started very recently. What could be the reason for this.
We've tried stopping the our Platform search and Central logger but still the 'Invalid token" keeps on growing.
The frequency pattern is within seconds.
Thanks & Regards,
Chandra Sekhar L.
