Hyperion Planning Java Heap Size

To change the settings for the Planning Java heap size for Web-logic , when Planning is run as a
service or when Planning is started in a command window.

Changing the heap for Planning as a Windows Service:

There are two ways to set the java heap settings for the planning server depending on whether Planning is run
as a service or run in a command window.
Changing the heap for Planning as a windows service
For planning run as a service you need to do the following:

1. Start -> Run -> RegEdit -> Enter.

2. In the registry look for the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->Software->Hyperion Solutions->HyperionPlanning>HyperionS9Planning.

3. For this node you should see several keys, several are JVMOptions.

4. Locate the Xmx and -Xms which are the maximum and minimum heap respectively.

5. These can be changed by right-click-> and select modify.

6. The recommended settings are 512, and 1024m respectively.

7. Exceeding 1024 is not recommended. Unless you are very familiar with JVM management you should leave all other options unchanged.

8. After changing these two setting you will need to stop and start the Hyperion Planning windows service.
Changing the heap for Planning running in a command window in the foreground.

Changing the heap through command window:

1. Open the start up script, (for example, for Planning:startHyperionPlanningstartHyperionPlanning.cmd or
StartHyperionPlanningStartHyperionPlanning.bat).
2 Add this line to set the heap size (this is an example, your memory choices may be different):
set
MEM_ARGS=-Xms512m -Xmx1024m
before the “call” command.
3. Save the cmd or file

4. If the server was running, stop it using the stop script and start it from the amended start up file.

In 11.1.x.x. :

Open the setCustomParamsHyperionPlanning.bat|.sh location should be  HYPERION_HOME/deployments/app_server/bin/
or  EPM_ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/deployment scripts/ depending on version) and modify the –Xms128m –
Xmx1024m entry to values of your choice.

If you installed 32-bit Planning on Microsoft Windows 64-bit the registry location is
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE->Software->Wow6432Node->
Hyperion Solutions->HyperionPlanning>HyperionS9Planning



Thanks!!

Essbase for Beginners: Data Block concepts Part A

An Essbase outline has a number of dimensions.  The number of dimensions can range in quantity and size, but each dimension is identified as a dense or sparse dimension.  As we understood the concept of Dense and Sparse in our last discussion, let’s begin with the cocept of data blocks now. To understand this, let’s carry forward our hierarchy of 5 dimensions in a test application in my previous post.. We have 3 dense and 2 sparse dimensions each with 3 stored members. So let’s begin: Number of Existing Blocks = (potential number of blocks) * estimated density= 9 Block Size = Dense Stored * Dense Stored * Dense Stored * 8 bytes = 3*3*3 *8 = 216 Potential number of blocks = Sparse Stored * Sparse Stored = 9 If all dimensions are assigned as Dense, Number of Existing Blocks = (potential number of blocks) * estimated density= 1 Block Size = Dense Stored * Dense Stored * Dense Stored * 8 bytes = 3*3*3*3*3 *8 = 1944 Potential number of bloc...

Shared Connection and Private Connection

You connect to data sources through shared or private connections. Shared Connections •Shared connections are stored in a central location and are available to multiple users through the Smart View Panel. You cannot add, edit, or rename shared connections, but you can save them as private connections, which you can edit and rename. Private Connections •Private connections are those that you create by saving a shared connection to your local computer or by entering a URL to a provider that is not configured for shared connections. When you create a private connection, it becomes the active connection. Shared Connections : 1. From the Smart View ribbon, click  Panel . 2. From Smart View Home or from the menu displayed when you click the arrow next to Home button, do one of the following: • Click a connection name under  Recently U sed . You can click    to pin items to this list. • Select  Shared Connections  to open th...

Smart View Timeout Error : The Request Timed Out. Contact your Administrator to Increase netRetryCount and netRetryInterval.

Objective:  The idea of the post is to automate the updating of Registry Entries required to increase the Timeout for Smart View. IE7 and IE8 & IE9 have a 30-second timeout when waiting for communication from the server. When adding form data, Smart View can take longer than 30 seconds to get confirmation from the Planning server that the changes were made and saved. A similar constraint exists for Essbase data.
