Issue in reverse engineering the model source is excel

Hi Everyone,
I am new to ODI, i am trying to export the excel file data into oracle table. For doing this created physical and logical schema for Excel file and Oracle database.
Tried to created a Model and reverse engineer the excel file to get the fields in it. But when i do them it says its done, but does not show the excel datastore in it.
Please help me to rectify it. Excel file is .xls format and ODI is standalore 11.1.1.
If you thing i have any thing please let me know the step by step procedure to export excel file to oracel table in ODI 11.1.1 version
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Sandeep

Hi Sandeep,
have you created a name for the range of data cells ?
Follow the steps given in this websource:
http://john-goodwin.blogspot.com/2009/03/odi-series-excel-functionality.html
"So the object of this exercise is to get the information from the excel file into the above database table. To achieve this the structure of the excel file has to be reversed in the ODI datastore format but before this is done named ranges have to be created in the file, this is because the ODI excel technology works on the basis of turning named ranges into datastores."

Hi,
Under the readme eRPI : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17236_01/epm.1112/readme/erpi_1112200_readme.html
I find this :
ODI Setup Steps to Integrate with Financial Management
To setup the ODI to integrate with Financial Management:
Rename odiparams.bat located at <ODI_HOME>\oracledi\agent\bin to odiparams.bat.backup.
The default installation location is C:\app\Oracle\product\11.1.1\Oracle_ODI_1.
Download Oracle Data Integrator Companion CD 11.1.1.6.2.
Unzip the contents of the Companion CD to the temp directory.
Unzip oracledi-agent-standalone.zip.
Copy the contents to: <ODI_HOME>.
Make a backup of the HFMDriver.DLL.
For the 32 bit operating system, copy HFMDriver32_11.1.2.2.dll as HFMDriver.DLL.
For the 64bit operating system, copy HFMDriver64_11.1.2.2.dll as HFMDriver.DLL.
Rename odiparams.bat.backup from Step 1 to odiparams.
Edit the PATH to include: <ODI_HOME>\oracledi.sdk\lib
Restart the ODI Agent.
I try this procedure, but now, I have a new error :
- Unable to connect on "myhfmserver" with "admin" user
I think that, there is another step to do, because now HFM 11.1.2.2 use directly the "EPM Registry" (into Shared Services Schema) to retreive the HFM servers ou Clusters.
But I don't find any information, how to setup this part into ODI.
Or may be, we need to setup "Regedit Keys" into Windows registry like previous HFM release ?
If you have any news, please inform me

Reverse Engineering a Model

I am using SQL Data Modeller to reverse engineer an Oracle database to produce a diagram for a data model that was made a while back now. I created the diagram successfully and was very pleased with the results and the process.
However, since creating that initial diagram the data model has again changed and I would like the recent changes to be reflected in the relational model I created in SQL Data Modeller.
Is there an easy way to update the model? I click File > Import > Data Dictionary (which is the original method I used) I followed the steps and was presented with a list of changes and asked to merge into the model. This seemed fine. However the new tables were not added to the diagram and when I dragged them on to the diagram from the list of tables I was not shown the relationships?
How can I easily added these new tables to the model?
Thanks, Mike

Check to see if the FKs between the tables you are referring to were captured in the reverses engineering. If they were, they would appear on the diagram when you drag in the new tables. If they were not captured, make sure they actually exisit in the database.
I beleive that in order to capture a FK in the reverse engineering you must select both tables to be captured. If you only selected the "new" table, I do not think the FKs will come in but rather only the table structure, PK, and indexes on that table.

Reverse engineering data model

Can rational rose reverse enginner data model from database (i.e. read the schema in db and then generate the ER diagram)?

Yes you can reverse engineer datamodel from database. Following steps will help you in doing it. I did it using Rational Rose 2001(a) Enterprise suite edition.
1. Go to Tools->DataModeler->Reverse Engineer option
2. Reverse engineering wizard dialog box will be shown.
3. Select Reverse engineer from Database
4. Select your target database. Enter username/password and service name
for your database.
5. Test connection option is also provided. You can test the connection using this option.
6. Available schemas in the selected database will be displayed.
7. Select the schema of your choice and it will generate the datamodel.
Hope it helped you.

Reverse Engineering the hierarchy of JMenuItems

From what I understood of the menus hierarchy, a JMenuBar has JMenu that has JMenuItems/JMenus associated. But this JMenuItems/JMenus are inserted in JPopupMenus.
If I want to traverse this tree from the root (JMenuBar) to the leafs (JMenuItems), there is no problem because I can use getSubElements to get to the leafs.
But if I have a reference for a leaf (JMenuItem), how can I get to the root? the getParent method returns JPopupMenu and from there it goes directly to the Frame.
So, how can I get a path to a JMenuItem from the leaf to the root?
thanks,
José Tavares

Thanks! I can't believe how I missed that, 've been looking for it for quite some time.

ODI Reverse-Engineering Question

We've been using ODI 10.3.5.1 for about a year now. The current load process was set up for us during implementation of Hyperion Planning. We are now trying to add a new dimension to our hierarchy, and I mistakenly went in and added the columns manually to all the models I could think of. I also added the columns into the source and target datastores in the interfaces manually.
Naturally, the load did not work. I keep getting the error "invalid column name 'Cost_Center'. I have been told by the installer (over email) that i should have reverse-engineered the models, and let the program build all the datastores. I tried to do the reverse-engineering, and am now getting an error for the HYP_PLANNING model, and the HYP_ESSBASE model runs and runs and runs, without doing anything noticeable.
How long should a reversal run? I don't believe our hierarchy is extraordinarily huge.
This is all in the TEST environment right now, but I need to put things in LIVE for August financials, so I have until 9/9/09 to figure this stuff out. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks for the quick response.
Like I said, it was done by the consultant, so I don't even know what an agent is.
As for the error, it was:

Reverse-engineering excel files in ODI

Hi,
I am currently creating an ODBC Data Source to connect to MS Excel and then reverse-engineering the excel file.Do I need to create separate ODBC Data Source for each excel file or is there any other way to achieve this?
Please suggest.
Thanks in advance.

hi Dev
1. Have you defined the correct link between DSN and your Excel File the answer is yes
2. Have you test the Connection in Topology ?yes and it's OK
3. Also is your Excel file has an Extension of XLS ? yes
4. When reversing have you check the required Technology - Microsoft Excel with required Logical Schema and context Yes i have Microsoft Excel with required Logical Schema and context
and also try checking the Tables and System Tables for reversing .I' can't

Odi REVERSE ENGINEERING AFTER RENAMING A COLUMN.

hi,
i have altered the table definition .
i have just renamed the columns name .
now when i reverse engineer , the model contains new as well old columns.
is there any way by which i can rename existing columns to the new one.

No. You cannot.
ODI doesnt know what your intentions were with the column renames.
It doesnt remove the columns during reverse engineering that dont exist in the database because the columns in ODI maybe used in the mappings.
The only way you can do is by doing it manually in ODI by renaming them

CUSTOMIZED REVERSE ENGINEERING

hi ,
IN my Model
i want to get tables from a ms sql server with customized reverse engineering..i use a stanalone agent but i need to select a RKM..but it doesnt exist..
why i choose this method ?
because i couldn't find the directory : <WINDOWS USER HOME>AppData\Roaming\odi\oracledi\userlib (on windows server 2003 )where i need to copy the jdbs driver..but i could find the directory : ODI HOME\..\..\..\agent\drivers and copy the jdbs jar file..and test it ..it is ok..
Edited by: ozgunyergok on 07.Eyl.2011 01:04

i have already solved this problem. i reverse engineered the tables, but i can't see the data of them..
it says " The TCP/IP connection to the host localhost, port 1433 has failed. Error: "Connection refused: connect. Verify the connection properties, check that an instance of SQL Server is running on the host and accepting TCP/IP connections at the port, and that no firewall is blocking TCP connections to the port."
i can access and view tables's data from my ms sql server client..but i can't do it with ODI..i use the same connection properties...

How do I change the Data Source? Please help

Hello Everyone,
Can anyone provide me the steps to change the extractor for a data source? Here is the situation; we have a Z data source and under data source display transaction RSA2, I see that the extraction methods is V (Transparent table or DB View) and the extractor is a Z table which we maintain in R/3 for mapping the SAP g/l accounts to Hyperion accounts. Since, we have introduced/created a new Z table in R/3 for SAP to Hyperion accounts mappings because of changes in Hyperion reporting system the BW system has no latest data/data from that is maintained in new Z table hence, it is appearing to me that once I update the data source with new Z table in the extractor will update BW with mapping information that is in the new Z table. Please let me know if I am wrong and suggest me the right way to deal with the above issue.
If updating the data source solves my problem then how do I go about doing that? Can I make the changes in R/3 production system directly or have to come through transport? Please provide me the steps to make those changes. Points will be awarded for the help.
Thanks in advance,
Kumar

Hi Ravi,
Here is what I meant for change in mapping and new mapping
1. For example R/3 account 1234 is mapped to Hyperion account ABC in old Z table and that was copied to new Z table since, we want to use that new Z table going forward but, in the new table the mapping is changed i.e., R/3 account 1234 mapped to Hyperion account XYZ
2. All new accounts created in R/3 after we started using new Z table are mapped to the Hyperion accounts only in the new Z table, meaning all the new mappings are only updated in new Z table.
Please reply.
Thanks,
Kumar

Reverse Engineering Synonym from Oracle data base

Hi All
I am using ODI 10.1
i want to reverse engineer synonames from my oracle database .
When i am reverse engineering the tables and views the datastore is showing the Columns in Columns tab.
But for Synonyms the the Column names are not available.However it is showing the data in viewdata.
Please help me

Hi,
* In Topology Manager, open your Oracle Data Server and go to "Properties" tab.
* Add a new property with key "includeSynonyms" and value "true".
ODI only reverse engineer Private Synonyms .

Synonym Reverse Engineering

Hello All,
Wish you all a Happy New Year.
I have two schemas by name
1) ABC
I have a table by name "Employee" in the "ABC" Schema.
2) DEF
I have created Synonym using the following command in the "DEF" Schema
Create public synonym STST_EMPLOYEE_TBL for ABC.EMPLOYEE.
When I reverse engineer the MODEL (by selecting SYNONYM check box) created using PHYSICAL/LOGICAL Schema of "DEF". It reverse engineers without any errors. But when you expand the Columns of the SYNONYM in the model, it does not show any COLUMNS at all.
Kindly let me know whether it is the limitation in ODI or my mistake.
Thanks
Edited by: cdmnagaraj on Jan 1, 2009 4:06 AM

Hello Gurusank,
The table will be created in a different schema than that off a ODI user schema. Hence we thought of accessing the table by creating a SYNONYM of the table.

Reverse engineering tool from the uml modeling tutorial

My problem arises at the point where the tutorial wants you to generate code. I generate the code for the bankAccount.java and the accountTest.java and that works fine. I add setBalance(getBalance()+amount); to bankAccount.java. I then add the main class to the AccountTest.java and reformat the code. That all works fine. Then when I do the reverse engineering going through steps 8-10, the Model Element Overwrite Authorization dialog box, never appears, and the main() method never gets written back into the AccountTest class. Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this is happening?

What version (or build) of UML are you using? You can find out by going Tools->Module Manager, find a uml module under UML category, right click on the module and bring up Properties, build number is listed under "Expert" section. What's your system platform? JDK?
In step 9, is the target uml project selected? Do you have other uml projects open at the same time?

Unable to generate Logical Model Diagrams through Reverse Engineering

Hi,
I am currently using SQL Developer Data Modeler Version-3.0.04.
I have generated Logical Model Diagrams from Relational Model Diagrams through Reverse Engineering (Done by pressing an" engineer to Logical Model button" on top panel of sql developer) .I saved the DMD file (source file) once i had done generating the logical diagrams.Now if i reopen the DMD and open the logical diagram again I found that most of the tables had lost their relationships.So i tried to regenerate the Logical Model Diagram again from the same Relational Diagram but it is not being generated unless i create a new Relational Diagram.Is there a way to generate multiple Logical Diagrams for the same Relational Diagram rather than creating a new one for each Logical Diagram to be created.
Regards .
Thanks in advance.

Any comments on this issue?. Please let us know.
