    This document provides instructions for generating BXS files from database backups using a utility. It describes two methods: 1) using log files from the database or 2) restoring database backups. For the second method, the steps are to restore the database backups using the utility, which will then run the end-of-day process to generate the BXS files. The document outlines selecting the appropriate database backups, parameters for the utility including database name from the configuration file, and monitoring the process to ensure successful generation of the BXS files.

    BXS Generation

    There are two ways we can do this

    #1 We get the log files instead of the DB itself.

    (a) The RawDataReader utility will run and go into the DB and start the process of inserting records.
    (b) Afterwhich BXS will get generated.

    #2 We have DB backups from TAKION, SOFI we can generate BXS files are restoring the DB’s.

    (a) DB restoration will need to be done which is a pre-requisite for GenerateReportRecord utility to
    run successfully.
    BXS GENERATION STEPS

    1. Connect to AWS Server (IP: 54.184.14.162)


    2. Go to partition D and follow the below steps
    D:\File Execution Automation MultiArgument Updated\File Execution Automation
    MultiArgument Updated
    Here we select the utility “BXSFileAutomation.exe”

    3. This will open the utility that will process DB’s and generate the BXS files we need.
    4. Next, we need to move to selecting the DB’s which is a separate process.

    SELECTING DB’s:

    1. Now we select the DB so the utility can process it and provide the relevant files.
    2. We can select the DB’s from the below location:
    D Drive >> Archives >> DB_Archives
    3. Now for whichever IMID we need to generate BXS we will pick those DB’s.
    For example if we want to work on QNTX then we will follow the below path: D Drive >>
    Archives >> DB_Archives

    BSX Utility:

    1. Once we select the DB or DB’s it will do a 2-step process, restore the DB and run the EOD
    process after which the BXS files are generated.
    2. When the utility runs it shows consolidated logs, the EOD logs don’t get shown separately.
    3. When the utility starts it will restore the DB and start the EOD process then the utility will go in a
    hold state till the EOD process completes or fails.
    4. In case the EOD process for a particular DB breaks the EOD process will stop and close, after
    which the utility will go from hold state as previously mentioned and start working on the next
    DB backup and start the processes for that.
    5. Manual monitoring is required by the user to ensure the utility is carrying out the required
    operations successfully incase it doesn’t there are ways to troubleshoot which will be discussed
    later in this document.

    Working on the BXS Utility:

    1. The BXS Utility has certain parameters that need data for it to work.

    2. Some information needed can be acquired from the CONFIG file, which is located on the below
    path
    Disk Drive ‘D’ >> EOD Processes 3.0.0.0 >> EOD Process.exe.config

    (A) Database Name: It is the name of the DB which would be restored.

    *Restoration of DB will be done but it will be the name that been set in the EOD process.

    * In the CONFIG file head to the sub section “ConfigurationDatabase” here you can check the relevant
    DB name

    (B) Server Name: The name of the server can be picked from the sub section “Data Source” of the
    CONFIG file.
    (C) User ID: Since AWS SQL Server is locally run so we can leave this as blank.

    (D) Password: We don’t need to input a password as the AWS SQL Server is locally run so we can leave
    this as blank.

    (E) EOD Argument: It is the value we need to input for the utility to know for which IMID BXS files are
    needed, example: BSX(IMID) where IMID can be VCVT, VCVU, QANT, QNTX, etc.

    (F) Next step is to press “Select Exe” it will open a file explorer window where we need to select the
    executable “EODProcess.exe”
