My 2nd node of 3HA Tableau Server is in degraded state after restart.

Hi Tableau Community, I have a 3 node High Availability Tableau Server Production Environment which has almost more than 1TB of data and 4000+ users are working on it with Core Based Licensing. 

Yesterday I initiated maintenance and restart activity of the server to bring back the backgrounder service, VizQL Service and the Application Server Service of my 2nd node to working from Degraded. But after restart, the error still persisted and Data Server also went into error state in 2nd node.  

Since it is a production server and I can't get downtime again, kindly let me know how can I bring back my Tableau Server from Degraded to running again. 

Thank you in advance

    This sounds like a tricky issue, especially with a production environment and that much data and traffic. I’d first check the Tableau Server logs for the VizQL, Application Server, and Data Server services to see what changed after the restart. Hopefully someone can point you to the exact service or log entry causing the degraded state.

    Hi Nwala, 

    Yes, there are quite a few people who’ve implemented Salesforce for insurance companies 😊 You’re definitely not alone. 

    Salesforce is widely used in insurance for things like: 

    • Lead and opportunity management for agents and brokers 
    • Policy lifecycle tracking (new business, renewals, endorsements) 
    • Claims intake and case management 
    • Customer 360 views using Service Cloud 
    • Integrations with core insurance systems (policy admin, billing, claims) 

    Coming from an insurance software background as a BA is actually a big advantage. Many successful Salesforce insurance implementations need strong domain knowledge to translate business processes (underwriting, renewals, commissions, compliance) into Salesforce workflows and automations. 

    If you’re looking to connect with like-minded folks, you might want to: 

    • Join Salesforce Trailblazer Community Groups (especially Financial Services Cloud groups) 
    • Look for Salesforce + Insurance discussions on LinkedIn and Reddit 
    • Explore Financial Services Cloud (FSC), as it’s commonly used in insurance transformations

During Lead conversion, Is Lead's currency is by default mapped into Converted Opportunity's Currency?

Hi All, 

 

I have a Salesforce org with Multi currency feature enabled. I have facing an issue on Lead conversion process as during Lead conversion in one scenario (Existing Opportunity choose) Lead currency is mapped into Opportunity Currency. So it's literally override the existing Opportunity currency (which selected during lead conversion process) and it's cause to lot of issues. 

 

So May I know, Is this standard behavior in Salesforce, As When a Lead converted into existing Opportunity, Lead's Currency is updated into Mapped Existing Opportunity Currency by default from Salesforce end?

Example :

Lead: X

Lead Currency: USD

Existing Opportunity: OPP-0000001

Opportunity Currency: INR

Amount: 2,00,000

After Lead converted by choosing the existing Opportunity as "OPP-0000001":

Existing Opportunity: OPP-0000001

Opportunity Currency: USD

Amount: 2,00,000

Note: I have confirmed, Currently no mapping in "Map Lead Fields" settings in Lead object and no code level (Apex logic) mapping for this in our org.

 

Any helps appreciated!!

    @Mohanraj S

    This is a standard behavior.. unless.. the existing Opportunity already has a product linked to it and Opportunity currency is different. 

     

    Otherwise.. when you convert a Lead to an existing Opportunity (with no product associated).. then Lead Currency will override Opportunity currency. hence, help check your Opportunity situation. 

     

    also refer below link for details

     Three days can definitely be a marathon, but the impact can last much longer! πŸš€ Administrator bootcamps are a great way to build strong Salesforce fundamentals through focused, hands-on learning. Excited to see the transformations this session brings!

Unable to Delete Unused Reports – Dashboard Dependency Error

I have a few Salesforce reports that are no longer being used and have never been run. I tried to bulk delete them using Sales Inspector. Some of the reports were deleted successfully, but a few failed with the following error:

DELETE_FAILED: cannot delete a report referenced by one or more dashboard components.

 

What is the recommended way to resolve this issue and delete these unused reports?

Also, is there a way to identify all dashboard components that reference a particular report before attempting to delete it?

    Build this custom report type is the easiest way.  

    Find Old Or Inactive Reports And Dashboards To Delete | Salesforce Help

     

     

    Then add a filter on report name and you can easily find which dashboard(s) are referencing the report you want to delete.  

     

    If you are still getting the error, then the report is likely stored in a private folder, so follow this guide: 

    Locate Reports and Dashboards Stored within Personal or Private Folders in Salesforce | Salesforce Help

β€œI recently learned how to migrate flows between orgs using Command-Line Interface (CLI) because a customer asked,” he said. β€œI'd never used CLI before then, but with a few tries, we were able to migrate everything we did in class to their development org in about 20 minutes.

Hey #AwesomeAdmins - Setup with Agentforce is GA!   

 

 

On April 15 at True to the Core,

@Zachary Banks

asked a simple but important question about Setup with Agentforce. 

 

Yesterday, May 26, just 41 days later, we announced General Availability and provided an answer to his question - we will not consume Agentforce Credits. πŸš€ 

 

That timeline matters because it reflects something I’m incredibly proud of: we’re listening. 

 

Huge thank you to everyone who shared feedback, asked hard questions, and helped shape the product along the way. The community input genuinely influenced the direction of what we built.
