Validating the Hyperion Services on Linux Platform...

Hi,

In this Page we are going to see how to validate the Hyperion services where the Hyperion Components were Installed on Linux Boxes.

Environment Details:

Foundation,Essbase,Hyperion Planing,Financial Reporting and Calc Manager are compatible on Linux & Windows platforms.

We can Install HFM,FDM,EPMA only on Windows Plat forms.

Recently Oracle release that we can Install HFM/FDMEE either Windows/Linux machines but that server should be an Exalytic servers

Learn more about Exalytic servers  "https://www.oracle.com/engineered-systems/exalytics/features.html"


We should have third party tools called Putty/WinScp/VNC Server etc... to validate our Hyperion related information

Putty is a command based product to validate the services /running the shell files 

WinSCP is GUI Product to validate the log files

VNC Server is GUI Where it is a single interface to do both Command based & GUI.

How to validate the Status of the Hyperion services in a Linux server

Steps:
a.Connect to the server using Putty by giving IP/Name of the server 
b.Login with the service account and check all the list of files using a command "ls"
c. Go to the Hyperion services folder using command "cd   path of the folder"

Eg: cd /u01/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystems1/daignostics/logs/starters/

check the status of each service by running a command " ls -ltr"

We should see the status as started at the front of each service name eg: started Calc_Manager.log

If you see Stopped_Calc_Manager.log the status of that service is in stopped mode.

To start the services

Go to the following path using a command in Putty 

cd /u01/Oracle/Middleware/user_projects/epmsystems1/daignostics/bin     and hit enter

You see all the Installed Hyperion components on that server. So,If you would like to start that services use the command   " ./Start_servicename.sh" and hit enter 

Eg: ./start.sh  To start all the Hyperion services on that server....

To stop the services use the command " ./Stop_ServiceName.sh "

Eg: ./Stop.sh to stop all the Hyperion services on that server....

Few Tips :

We use the below command mostly to check the status of Hyperion using Putty :

cd.

pwd

cd ..

ls 

ls-ltr

ps -ef | ProductName  Eg: ps -ef | Essbase

df -h

du -sh*

tail -100 logfilename

top


WinSCP is for to validate the log files / size of the file /Check the data modified Status/opening the file in GUI.....
