Defects Fixed in Release 9.3.1.4.00

Data and Rules Files Deleted when Running MaxL Import

Executing a data load in MaxL Editor using the “import…from local” command may result in deletion of the data and rules files. (7507246, 7566303)

Invalid eas location is Set when Deployed on a Port with Fewer than Five Digits

If Administration Services has been deployed to an application server on a port number containing fewer than five digits, an invalid eas location will be set in Essbase and Shared Services instance files, causing access errors while using Administration Services in Shared Services mode. In other words, a deployment on port 9091 may generate errors, but a deployment on port 19091 will not. (7516152)

Essbase Application Settings Deployed from Performance Management Architect Works Only Once

After deploying an application to Essbase From Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Architect, subsequent attempts to redeploy the application may result in application settings not being successfully deployed. (8202329, 8225983)

Data Load Scale Setting May Not Work Properly

Unnecessary Warning in Partition Wizard

In Partition Wizard, a warning message regarding potential overwriting of a target application and database may be displayed even if no target application or database has been selected. (7272501)

Passwords Displayed as Clear Text

Can't Delete Sparse Dimension on AIX

If Essbase Administration Server is installed on a server running AIX 5.3, deletion of a dimension from Administration Services Console may fail. The outline will show the dimension as deleted, but when the outline is closed and reopened, the dimension will reappear. (7557518)

Cancel Button in Deleted Dimension Dialog Box Works Incorrectly

Clicking the Cancel button in the Delete Dimension dialog box may result in an incorrect result, such as incorrectly removing the dimension from the outline view even though the dimension is not deleted. (7562501)

Retrieving/Saving Substitution Variables Fails

Data Load Errors Not Written to File

When Administration Services Console is running on a different computer from Essbase Administration Server, errors occurring during a data load may not be written to the error log. The workaround is to specify a different error log file for each separate load. (7552094)
