Importing Linked Reporting Objects

If you are applying the maintenance release to move from Essbase Release 11.1.2.0 to Release 11.1.2.1, you must import linked reporting objects from the earlier release.

Before you complete this step, you must have exported the linked reporting objects from Release 11.1.2.0. See Essbase Maintenance Release Installation Prerequisites.

  To import linked reporting objects:

  1. Start Essbase Server.

  2. Run the following MAXL command to import the linked reporting object data from the earlier release backup directory:

    IMPORT database DBS-NAME LRO from server directory 
‘directoryName’

    For example:

    MAXL> IMPORT database Sample.Basic LRO from server directory 
‘Sample-Basic-V1’;
