      Thanks Yogesh for detailed steps!

      I just finished upgrading to OneSource 6.8, Business Object 4.2 sp08 and Data Service 4.2 sp14 and steps you mentioned were performed. However when login in to Data Service Management Console to run the ETL_Repo batch jobs OP_User_Access_Load_Cleanup and OP_User_Access_Load, batch job configuration tab is empty. How do I recover the ETL_REPO batch jobs?

      Please suggest

      Thanks, Gabrielle

      Hi while further checking found some issues on the Reporting Installer log. The script collects the info but aborts with the following error:

      We also upgrade to MSSQL 2016 and OS Windows 2016.

       

      Please advise if you have seen this error before and how it was fixed.

      Thanks, Gabrielle

      My issue has been resolved.

      There was a bad SQL code making the Reporting Installer script to abort.

      It was found the below 2 columns to be missing on table RS_INVOICE_LINE_TAXES. These were added to Reporting and Determination Databases and after that Installer script ran correctly. Also Reporting definitions and ETL batch jobs were populated after that.

      COLUMN FILING_AUTHORITY_NAME
      COLUMN COMPLIANCE_AREA_UUID

      Hope it helps,

      Thanks, Gabrielle

      Hi Reporting experts,

      I'm running the Reporting Installer script version 6.8.0 on our Prod system and facing issue with TempDB filling up 100%. Script is running "Component SabrixReportsAudit will be upgraded from 6.3.0.0.54 to 6.8.0.0.17" phase "Adjusting 'RS_INVOICE_LINE_TAXES.FEE_AMOUNT'" and it runs for a very long time and fills up our DB filesystem TempDB. We already expend it to 200GB but still fails.

      Component SabrixReportsAudit will be upgraded from 6.3.0.0.54 to 6.8.0.0.17.
      Creating schema using definitions in data model 'Reports Audit' version '6.8.0.0.17'.
      SQL execution is enabled. All changes will be committed.
      Unsupported column alteration. Cannot morph column 'com.sabrix.dblib.domainmodel.Column [name=BATCH_DATE, table=RS_AUTH_CATEGORY_LOOKUPS, type=93, length=null, precision=23, scale=3, nullable=true, audited=true, defaultValue='null']' into column 'com.sabrix.dblib.domainmodel.Column [name=BATCH_DATE, table=RS_AUTH_CATEGORY_LOOKUPS, type=91, length=null, precision=null, scale=null, nullable=true, audited=true, defaultValue='null']' on table 'RS_AUTH_CATEGORY_LOOKUPS'.

      ...

      Adjusting 'RS_INVOICE_LINE_TAXES.FEE_AMOUNT' column precision and scale.

      Any suggestions?

      Thanks, Gabrielle
