MicroStrategy ONE

The R Integration Pack is no longer supported as of December 2024.

Upgrading MicroStrategy Projects

If you have MicroStrategy projects that existed before the installation of the R script functions, you must upgrade the projects using the MicroStrategy Configuration Wizard.

If you upgraded a previous version of the R script functions, upgrading a project ensures that any changes to the R script functions since your previous installation are applied to the project.

See ReadMe.txt for information on whether the R script functions were modified for the most recent release. If you are upgrading a version of the R script functions from more than one release prior, upgrade a project to ensure that any R script function changes are applied.

For MicroStrategy Desktop configurations, the R script functions are included with the standard installation of MicroStrategy Desktop.

The steps below show you how to add or upgrade the R script functions for existing MicroStrategy projects by upgrading the projects.

To Add or Upgrade R Script Functions for Existing MicroStrategy Intelligent Enterprise Projects

  1. Open the MicroStrategy Configuration wizard.
  2. Windows: Click Start and navigate to Programs > MicroStrategy Tools > Configuration Wizard.

    Linux: From a Linux console window, browse to HOME_PATH, where HOME_PATH is the directory that you specified as the home directory during installation. Browse to the bin folder and enter ./mstrcfgwiz.

  3. Select Upgrade existing environment to MicroStrategy <version>, and click Next.
  4. Select Intelligence Server Components, and click Next.
  5. Enter the credentials for the MicroStrategy admin and click Next.
  6. For each project to add the R script functions to, select the Re-execute the Project Logical Upgrade checkbox.
  7. For the Local Host Intelligence Server, select Re-execute Metadata Repository Upgrade, and click Next.
  8. Click Finish.
  9. When the upgrade is complete, restart any MicroStrategy Intelligence Server that is connected to the project metadata that was upgraded. The R script functions are added to the list of Data Mining Functions available when creating metrics, including the functions RScript, RScriptU, RScriptAgg, RScriptAggU, and RScriptSimple.

After you have installed the R script functions, the MicroStrategyR Package must be installed on systems that are being used to develop your R analytics.
