Loading large snapshot using EPM Automate
Intention and context:
The goal is to create the possibility to load and deploy a historical snapshot into a spare FCCS environment (or any other suitable Oracle EPM environment, flexibility is given via dynamic variables in batch script). The historical snapshot is generated via EPM automate and locally stored in a remote desktop environment. Key to mention here is that the size per snapshot is well over 50 GB, making it too heavy to manually transmit to the environment. Because of its size, Oracle advised to tackle this operation via EPM automate.
Issue:
The EPM automate script performs the load and import of the snapshot into the environment, then forces the daily maintenance to run to update and align the versions of the snapshot and environment.
