I am trying to extract metadata from essbase into a flat file using ODI.

I have 2 questions in this regard :
Some of the account members storage property is missing in the extract.the reason which i suspect is due to the parent child sorting that did not happen while extracting.How do i do this.I do not see this option when i select IKM hyperion Essbase Metadata to SQL....
I have many account members that have more than one UDA's upto 5 UDA's.But in my extrcat only one UDA appears.How do i incorporate all the UDA's in a single column,sperated by a comma,the extract file as such is semicolon seperated,mainly because of this reason and some alias descriptions have comma's in the source system
ODi is extracting metadata in a descending order.How do i change it to sort records in parent child order
Thanks,
Lingaraj

Hi,
There was an issue with early versions of the KM around the storage property, this has since been resolved. I recommend upgrading to the latest release of ODI or have a look through the patches.

Extracting data from Essbase into Workspace

Hi All,
Need suggestions/ideas. I want to create a workspace job or Essbase calc or Calc rule (Anything that can be run by user from workspace or Smartview) which will extract data from Essbase cube and give csv to user in local drive or on workspace. I know there can be a way to do this by using ftp etc.. but want to check if there is any simpler way.
Any suggestions/ideas would be appreciated. Not looking for using any external tools or anything other than Workspace/Essbase/Planning.

I totally agree with JohnGoodwin and TimG , it is indeed not a smooth and perfect way to provide data. Trying hard to push to use Smart view or may be Financial report for this, but just checking other possible ways in case users don't want to use any

Extract Metadata from Final Cut Pro Project files...

We're currently scanning our project directory (running great by the way), but I'm curious - Is there a way for Final Cut Server to extract metadata from the XML. Timecode info, titling, descriptions, etc and tag that info to the final cut project within FC Server?
That would be great!
Ryan

Hello!
I was just told by Apple (several hours ago), that it's a bug which happens on some Final Cut Servers. They said that the engineering team is looking into it.
The tech guy had me open the project in Final Cut (directly, not with FC Server involvement), then go up to File, Export, Export as XML. Then, he had me look within Final Cut Server and then it would let me checkin/out, etc. He said that it's a bug they're working on.
I hope it gets fixed soon! I need it fixed in order to do what we plan on doing.

Extracting data from Oracle to a flat file

I'm looking for options to extract data a table or view at a time to a text file. Short of writing the SQL to do it, are there any other ideas? I'm dealing with large volumes of data, and would like a bulk copy routine.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Is there any script which i can use for pulling data from tables to a flat file and then import that data to other DB'sFlat file is adequate only from VARCHAR2, NUMBER, & DATA datatypes.
Other datatypes present a challenge within text file.
A more robust solution is to use export/import to move data between Oracle DBs.

Problems with extract metadata from Essbase with ODI 10.1.3.5.

Hello there, I have a really annoying problem. I have 2 dimensions in essbase v11 with a space on it, (Itens Financeiros and Centros Financeiros), and this is causing a problem when I try to extract the metadata from essbace to a table. the problem occurs some times in 3 - loading - ss_0 - begin essbase metadata extract and some times in 4 - loading ss_0 - extract metadata, but in this 2 steps the error is the same:
unknown member name [itens] in function [@idescendants]. I see in Johns blog someone sayng to add a '/"' in the front and at the end of the member filter criteria to allow ODI to parse the space as part of the member name. but I really don't understand this. Someone can helpme with this? Thanck you.

It doesn't matter, I am able to replicate with an older version of the essbase adaptor...
I take it this is the type of error you are receiving "com.hyperion.odi.essbase.ODIEssbaseException: Extract operation failed : Cannot query members by specs. Analytic Server Error(1200497): Error parsing formula for [REGION DEFINITION"
If you download patch - Patch 8785893: ORACLE DATA INTEGRATOR 10.1.3.5.2_02 ONE-OFF PATCH
It is easy to install just a matter of copying a jar file over an existing one in the \oracledi\drivers directory.
It should resolve the issue.
Ok?

Extract data from Query to a Flat File - scheduling in the background

Hi All,
We need to extract data from a query to a flat file periodically, but each time 10 separate executions based on 10 profit centers, to get the separate files.
So, we have PC1, PC2, ... PC10 Profit centeres.
We have Query1, with profit center variable.
We have created 10 variants for Query1 so that we can execute for 10 profit centers.
Now, we have used RSCRM_BAPI to execute the Query1 and write to a flat file. Now we are having a problem in getting this feature used to execute the query automatically for 10 different varaints.
Thanks in advance,
_ Shashi

Shashi,
You can try using Information Broadcasting or Reporting Agent. You can schedule this in Information Broadcasting.

Exporting metadata from Lightroom to a flat file.

I would like to export the metadata in a lightroom database to a flat file or Excel sheet. Is this possible? I'm using lightroom on a PC.

John,
Thanks for your reply and the references to the tools. I ran the sqlLite Database Browser to look at the LR database, and to be honest it was pretty much gibberish to me. There's over 50 tables in the database and some quick browsing through them revealed data that would seem to require a knowledge of the database structure to extract. I'm a photographer with very good knowledge of how to use software tools to do my job, but I'm not a programmer and really don't have the time or the desire to become one.
My point is any good database software should have the capability to generate at least a flat file of the information contained within. In LR's case, I (and it seems others based on feature requests) would like to see a capability of exporting a CSV or tab-delimited file of the information contained in the side panels (i.e., keywords, the metadata browser, and the metadata panel for starters) on an image-by-image basis. I could then use the output in any of several other tools to do what I need.
Thanks again for your helpful links. Maybe someone can come up with a "CSV generator" using one of those tools that could be shared among LR users.

Call ODI 11g scenario from Essbase calc script/business rule using ODI SDK

I am looking for any hints on how to use the ODI 11g SDK. I want to call a java application (CDF) that runs an ODI scenario using RUNJAVA in Essbase which I have successfully done in the 10g environment.
The java application has the odi-core.jar included in the project and registers OK with Essbase and I have replicated code from the Oracle sample code site. When I run the application in a calc script I get the following error:
EssbaseCluster-1.EFTS.EFTS.odi     Execute calculation script     June 17, 2011 10:20:40 AM NZST     Failed
Error: 1200456 Problem running [indigo.essbase.odi.RunODIScenario]: [java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/springframework/util/StringUtils]
When I comment out the code that calls the creates the OdiInstance then the java app executes fine - i.e. writes something to the Essbase log.
The research I have done so far indicates that a classpath is incorrect. If that is the case where do I start looking to correct the classpath? Is it the ODI classpath or the Essabase classpath?
Any tips would be grateful.
Thanks.

You need to import more jars to execute this
following are the jars
1)     bsf.jar
2)     bsh-2.0b2.jar
3)     commons-collections-3.2.jar
4)     eclipselink.jar
5)     odi-core.jar
6)     ojdl.jar
7)     oracle.ucp_11.1.0.jar
8)     persistence.jar
9)     spring-beans.jar
10)     spring-core.jar
11)     spring-dao.jar
12)     spring-jdbc.jar
Once you have this in classpath - your scenario will execute
Hope this helps.

Can I extract metadata from planning or only from essbase?

Hi!
Can I extract metadata from planning or only for essbase? If I can from planning, how can I do it? And why when I extract metadata from essbase, it extract the members that are never share in Store? It always put S (Stored) .
Thanks in advance.
Bye

Hi,
You can only extract metadata from essbase, if you want to have a look at some examples of how to do it then have a read here

Extracting data from Essbase & loading into flat file through ODI

Hi,
I want to extract data from Essbase and load it into a flat file through ODI(for extraction from essbase I'm using a report script) and I’m using these KM’s:- LKM Hyperion Essbase data to SQL,IKM SQL to FILE Append & for reversing I’m using RKM Hyperion Essbase.All the mappings have been done and the interface has been made.

It seems that you are trying to use the file as your staging areas. Hyperion LKM extracts essbase data into a DB staging area which can then be used by your file IKM to load it into file.
You need to use a RDBMS for your staging area.

I'm trying to extract data from Essbase cube to Oracle . Reverse engineering successfully completed , When running the interface I'm getting the following error :
"com.hyperion.odi.essbase.ODIEssbaseException: com.hyperion.odi.essbase.ODIEssbaseException: No data column defined in source model"
i'm using the following KM

Extract data from Essbase with HAL to a flat file

Hello,
I would like to extract data from Essbase with HAL.
I use the essbase Adapter with the "Extract Data" Method.
All is working when I use only the essbase Adaptater and configure it.
But I want to have a variable on my Years dimension.
I have to fill "Years member port" and "Years Criteria port" of my essbase Adapter with variable.
I have a "v_year" and "v_year_criteria" variable. I fill "v_year" with "FY05" but I don't know how fill my "v_year_criteria" variable.
Thanks a lor for answer.

If you are in 9.3x, I would recommend using the DATAEXPORT calc script function. You just FIX on what you want to export (including substitution variables), and then fill in some parameters and it writes a file. Look in the DBAG.

I am trying to extract metadata from essbase into a flat file using ODI.
