The basic steps are as follows:

1. Run PowerShell as Administrator.

2. Browse to .\MRInstallDirectory.

For a demo or DEV deployment, this will typically be J:\MROneBox\MRInstallDirectory

For Sandbox/UAT deployments, this will typically be J:\MRProcessService\MRInstallDirectory for the BI machine and F:\MRApplicationService\MRInstallDirectory for the AOS.

3. In the PowerShell window type the following command to import the MRDeploy.psd1 module: Import-Module .\Server\MRDeploy\MRDeploy.psd1

4. You can then run the following command to reset the data mart:

Reset-DatamartIntegration -Reason <enter Reason option> -ReasonDetail “<your reason for resetting>”

  • The valid values for -Reason are: SERVICING, BADDATA, OTHER.
  • The -ReasonDetail parameter is free text.

5. Stop the Management Reporter 2012 Process Service on the BI server. If you are a HA (high availability) environment, you will need to stop the service on all BI servers.

6. Answer Yes when prompted in PowerShell to continue.

7. Start Management Reporter 2012 Process Service.

 

To confirm that the reset has completed, you can run the following query against the ManagementReporter database:

select ReaderObjectName, WriterObjectName, LastRunTime

from Connector.MapsWithDetail with (nolock)

When the reset has completed, all records will have a timestamp in the LastRunTime column.
