Scheduling Daily Maintenance

For information about daily maintenance operations and scheduling the maintenance start time for an environment, see Managing Daily Maintenance in Getting Started with Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud for Administrators.

Note:

There is a system setting called Export EPM Cloud Smart List textual data during daily maintenance for incremental data import that, depending on if this setting is enabled, could impact the duration of the export. For more information and for recommendations about using this setting, see Exporting Smart List Textual Data During Daily Maintenance for Incremental Data Import in Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud Operations Guide .

To prevent automatic backup from failure due to scheduled jobs, Oracle Enterprise Performance Management Cloud disallows certain scheduled jobs to start while the daily maintenance process is running.

The following jobs are prevented from starting during the daily maintenance:

  • Import Data

  • Import Metadata

  • Export Data

  • Export Metadata

  • Refresh Database

  • Clear Cube

  • Restructure Cube

  • Compact Outline

  • Merge Data Slices

  • Optimize Aggregation

If the system prevents a job from starting, the reason will be stated in the Job Details. If you've enabled email notifications for the Job Console, you'll receive an email notification when a job does not start. If you have a job that is scheduled to start during the daily maintenance process, it is recommended that you reschedule your job to start outside of the daily maintenance window. See Scheduling Jobs.
