Importing Essbase Data and Linked Reporting Objects

If you replicated data to a new machine, and if you selected Consolidated disk volumes or tablespaces on target by exporting data during data replication, you must run a script to import the Essbase data and linked reporting objects on the upgraded system. The Essbase Staging Tool provides a script to perform this task.

  To import data and linked reporting objects on the upgraded machine:

Navigate to the export data directory you defined during data replication on the machine that is hosting the upgraded Essbase Server and run the following script using MaxL:

%ARBORPATH%/bin/startMaxl.bat -u userName importdata.msh

where userName is the Administrator user name to connect to the upgraded Essbase server. The script prompts you to enter the password.
