Posted here are posting to Other Products appears to be broken.
We have an existing and established B03.1 system and I have recently installed a BI4.0 system for evaluation/planning purposes.
We have also been looking at other products in the BI Suite such as SAP Lumira / SAP Visual Intelligence.
The BI4.0 system (SP06) appears to be working fine, I can connect to it through the web interface, client apps etc.
I have also installed SAP Lumira as a client app on my PC (v1.0.11). When I create a new SAP Lumira Document and choose Universe 4.x as a data source and enter the new system details I am presented with a list of Universes as expected. When I select one it takes about 15 minutes of pondering before chucking an error:-
The interesting part is that I can use a Universe 3.x data source connecting to our existing systems.
Responding to my own question it is firewall related. I have TCP Ports 6400-6410 and 8080 open on the BI4.0 Server - which works for everything else. Anyone know of what extra Lumira might need? If I turn off the firewall it works fine.
That said, I’d normally open them all and ask Tech Services to monitor traffic then close them back down as we learn which are not used after a week or so’s use.
Update, I didn’t find which extra ports it was wanting to use, but I reconfigured the firewall rules to allow programs to run through it rather than opening specific ports. This has resolved the issue completely.
So rules added for CMS, Connection Server, Connection Server 32, File Server, Tomcat and WI Report Server.
