BO users sessions analysis (SI_LOGON_CLIENT_TYPE)

$
0
0

Hi,

 

I'm trying to get and analyze the current sessions on my BO server.

 

bo-sessions.jpg

One of the fields I'm interested in is the "Client Session".

 

I'm requesting the BO repository using the java sdk (I'm new to sdk use).

The only field that I have identified as being correlated with the client session is SI_LOGON_CLIENT_TYPE which is a UID like this: AWmaRz4Z.NVPpAEtplYGAjc.

I'm retrieving this information with the following query:

 

strQuery = "select si_id, si_name, si_creation_time, si_logon_client_type from ci_systemobjects where si_kind='Connection' and si_parentid=41 and si_name != 'System Account' and SI_AUTHEN_METHOD != 'server-token'"

 

Yet after several investigations, I couldn't find how to get the corresponding text displayed in the CMC interface (Logon without Client ID, CMC, ...) as SI_PROGID returns always "CrystalEnterprise.Connection" and SI_SPECIFIC_KIND returns "Connection". I couldn't also locate any reuse of this UID in the BO repository (except for sessions that have the same value for "Client Session").

 

Additionnally, I couldn't find any information about SI_LOGON_CLIENT_TYPE in the SDK documentation and google never heard about it .

 

Any help or workaround on this topic would be appreciated,

folding of data in simple break collapses to nothing at top level

$

0

I learned the folding technique on breaks a couple of weeks ago, and used it to good effect. Now I am trying to do it again, but running into what appears weird to me . . . the top item in the break, when it folds, it collapses the entire thing !

Folding error 1 shows collapsing for all but the top item - looks good.

folding error 1.jpg

Folding error 2 shows the entire thing disappears when I then collapse the top item in the break !!!! ??? mad.gif Also, when I then try to un-fold it, it doesn't do anything, I have to "un-do" my last actions to get the data back.

folding error 2.jpg

Folding error 3 shows a completely collapsed break that worked great. I was able to repeat the issue so it's consistent but not what I'm expecting.

BOE version: 4.1 sp2

BOE server OS: win server 2008 enterprise r2 sp1

cpu: 2.6GHz * 8 (logic cores)

RAM: 16G

 

It is our development system,which means only a few(actually onle 1,sometimes 2) developer use it

The problem is the average processing time of the Dashboard processing server and the Dashboard cache server is consistently high

 

I have optimized the xmx parameter of the two servers and the

is there anything else i can do?

 

BTW,the min processing time is normal,now is 300 msec

How can you manually logon to CMC when Single Sign-On is configured

$

First of all, if someone have not noticed, then yes - it is possible to enable SSO on the CMC as well, as mentioned in this post SSO (WinAD) to CMC with 4.1 SP6? it has been around since 4.1 SP6 and it still works in 4.2 SP2

 

But, once SSO is enabled you can not any longer connect to either the BI Launchpad (or CMC) on the local BO Server, then you get this error:

 

sso_error.png

This is also known and well documented.

 

A way to work around this was to use the logonNoSso.jsp as mentioned in SAP Note 1631817

 

e.g. http://localhost:8080/BOE/BI/logonNoSso.jsp

 

However the same trick http://localhost:8080/CMC/BI/logonNoSso.jsp does not work for the CMC, so

 

how can you manually logon to CMC when Single Sign-On is configured?

Contents in Favorite folder been deleted

HI Experts,

 

We just had this weird issue this weekend that all the contents from the User's favorite folder got deleted, even the scheduled reports, instances, user BI Inbox reports. We checked the logs for the weekend and found out:

 

LDAP LOG.PNG

 

 

This basically says that the reload fetched 0 users and groups. Is there a chance that because of this failed to update the user and group from the LDAP server and lost the mapping with the user id, caused favorites folder content to be deleted? Please anybody has any insight with it, do share it with me.

 

Thank you,
Chandan

SNC Library path for .NET Application through RFC Connections

Hi Everyone,

 

I am new to devloping applications to connect with SAP.

 

We are trying to connect a .net application to a SAP Server. We were able to connect using RFC Connections without using SNC.

 

When we tried to connect to the server using SNC(SNCMyname, SNCPartnerName, SNCQop  mentioned), we get an error saying

Unable to load GSS-API DLL named "sncgss32.dll"

 

The SAP Server is using Common Crypto Library. We downloaded the CommonCryptoLibrary SAR File and extracted it.

We mentioned SAPLibrarypath pointing to sapcrypto.dll from the downloaded library.

 

But we still get the error and now the error says sapcrypto.dll is not a valid win32 application.

 

I have gone throught some of the posts in the internet but everyone are talking about pointing the sncgss32.dll in the c:\windows\system32 folder.

 

But we want to connect to SAP Server without having to install SAP GUI.

 

Can anyone here let me know the steps to connect to sap server using SNC?

 

Many Thanks,

 

Yvonne

Expansion vs Node Addition

$

0

Hi,

 

We have following use case

> Currently we are on single node , BI 4.1 SP4

> Need to move to cluster and BI 4.1 Sp6

> FIle store size 3.5 TB ( we are having short time to clean the content , as old system is having lot of issues )

 

Thinking of following sequence , please provide me more inputs around it 

 

New Cluster > 2 Application nodes -tomcat

                       2 Intelligent nodes  -

                      2 Porcessing nodes

 

Installation: 1. Installing node 3 - BI SP4

                    2. Installing Node1 - Tomcat 7

                    3. Migrating the content from old system

                    4. Updating Node with BI SP6

                    5. expanding the installation  for node 4,5,6

                    6. installing tomcat on node 2

                    7. Clustering and configurations

 

For #5  what do you suggest , just prep the nodes and install expand mode and add to cluster or separately install BO on each node and add to the cluster

 

Any inputs will be really appreciated

 

 

Thanks

Crystal Reports Server XI Installation Issue

$

Hi,

 

I am busy installing Crystal Reports Server XI running on a Windows 7 64 bit unit. The installation progresses very well until it gets to a point where it just seems to stop and it never goes beyond that point. It just does the following and it has been standing there for hours.

 

"Time remaining: 4 minutes".

What I've tried so far :
1.) Restarting and trying the installation again.
2.) I've checked the application and system logs, but no information is available as to why this issue might be occurring.
3.) Disabled anti-virus

4.) Ran the Setup.exe as administrator.

 

Any idea on how I can get it to complete the installation ?

 

[EDIT] I found some sort of log file but I don't know if it will be of use.  It had a line with an error code within it :

 

Installation success or error status : 1602
