I have two contributor application in my contributor planner.
I have deployed one application successfully but when i try to deploy the other one I am getting the error as "unable to create security group for this application groupcreationlimit should be 29 so i changed my tm1s.cfg file and kept the groupcreationlimit as 1000".

Here is my tm1s.cfg file

Code: Select all

[TM1S]
ServerLogging=F

CAMPortalVariableFile = portal/variables_TM1.xml
ServerCAMURI = http://COGNAS:19300/p2pd/servlet/dispatch
Language = ENG
IntegratedSecurityMode = 5
ClientMessagePortNumber = 26911
DataBaseDirectory = E:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Cognos Express\Xcelerator\Custom\TM1Data\Fernco Demos\BNPBuild
UseSSL = T
ClientCAMURI = http://COGNAS:19300/p2pd/servlet/dispatch
PortNumber = 26911
ClientPingCAMPassport = 900
LoggingDirectory = E:\Program Files (x86)\IBM\Cognos Express\Xcelerator\Custom\TM1Data\Fernco Demos\BNPBuild\Logs
ServerName =BNPBuild
GroupCreationLimit=1000
PerformanceMonitorOn=F
UseSSL=F
Maximumcubeloadthreads=1

I have also attached my dimension hierarchy.

Are both applications pointing to the same TM1 service?

Ravi:

The parameter is "GroupsCreationLimit", not "GroupCreationLimit". Make sure you restart your TM1 Server after changing the TM1S.CFG parameter - this parameter is one that is not dynamically updated:
http://publib.boulder.ibm.com/infocente ... Limit.html

Once you successfully deploy your Contributor applications you may want to knock the GroupsCreationLimit back down to a more reasonable number, since a number that high could consume additional resources on the server that aren't really necessary once you've got all the groups you need for TM1 Contributor, provided you don't expect to add hundreds more elements to your approval hierarchy dimensions in a short period of time.

Regards,
Mike
