We had a problem with object corruption so i opened case with SAP when they called me they thought same that object is not working may be because it got corrupted, while working on the problem they deleted one of the universe from CMC. and i had universe open locally which then we exported to enterprise (this is a linked universe) . now when i try to run any crystal report or webi reports they complain âUniverse not foundâ
we have the universe in test environment but we did lot of changes in development environme and really would like to have our universe back.
what could be the problem? did universe lost the cuid and when re exported from local got new cuid ? and thats why report are not finding universe with old cuid?
Yup. thatâs what happened. You now have a real problem. Someone must have a copy of the original universe that is âcorruptedâ. You could try to put it back.
âThey is SAP Supportâ is correct. they deleted the universe.
anyway we had biar file in backup, so they(SAP Support) asked me to retrive the universes from there. and i did so everything is up and running now.
Thanks for all the replies.
I created BIAR of all environment (D,T,P) and kept in secret location.
One more thing only 1 object in universe got corrupted.
Last year I had the same problem, my universe got corrupted during export. But I was having backup for last week, after that i did some changes, those changes i lost.
My concern is is there any way to get the original universe recover back if we donât have a backup also?
If you have no copy, then it cannot be fixed. If you have a copy anywhere is cat be manually inserted into the repository. You build a new blank universe withe the exact same name. Then you find the the universe file in the FRS and replace it with your old file.
Weâve done this several times. it works great.
If you have no backup, then you have no file. Canât recover something that doesnât exist.
