Exporting the essbase database:The Command used is export database to export the data from the essbase cube.To meet the requirement for exporting data from an essbase cube interactively , a process was developed.This process consists of a batch file which invokes the Maxl script. The batch file prompts for the server name, cube name,database name,the file name and the path for the file to be placed.Positional parameters were passed to the maxl script , based upon the input from the user .The maxl accepts this parameters and it does the export of data. The data we are exporting here is the level 0 data in coloumn format.The output is spooled out to a file. And the batch file logs out the log and it is sent as amail.The password is encrypted through the public key generated through maxl and decrypted through the private key generated through maxl. This parameters are passed along with the user input parameters.The batch file also can be converted into .exe using any batch to .exe converters, but the output file contains the password.Note: In versions 11.1.2.1 and up you will need to call the startmaxl.cmd instead of essmsh as Oracle has phased out essmsh.Batch file code:@echo offecho "start of log" >> "E:\MAXL\maxlscripts\dataexportlog.log"set /p ServerN=Enter Server IP:set /p CubeN=Enter Cube Name:set /p DBN=Enter Database Name:set /p FileN=Enter File Name to save export:set /p DirN=Enter Path to re-direct the file:E:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\epmsystem1\EssbaseServer\essbaseserver1\bin\startMaxL.bat -D "E:\MAXL\maxlscripts\maxltest.msh" 225468249,382703179 admin 189055623600756242080083413510897830 %ServerN% %CubeN% %DBN% %FILEN% %DIRN% >> "E:\MAXL\maxlscripts\dataexportlog.log"rem sendmail -b E:\MAXL\maxlscripts\dataexportlog.log -s "dataexport completed". -f sendersemail -r receivers email -r anotherreceiver email -X SMTP.Yourcompany.net
