Are Export DataSources always 3.x format? Can they be migrated to 7.0 DTP?

Hi,
I am extracting for a BW Export DataSource into a cube. It seems that when you generate an Export DataSource, the DataSource in 3.x format.
I first created the ETL using the 3.x scenario.
i.e Export DataSource->Transfer Rules->InfoSource->Update Rules->Cube
I then wanted to move the DTP for improved efficiency and so created a new 7.0 InfoSource and built the 7.0 scenario
i.e Export DataSource->Transformation->7.0 InfoSource->Transformation->Cube and all works well.
I'm now trying to remove the 3.x scenario, but it causing problems because the Export DataSource remains 3.x.
If I try to delete the 3.x DataSource, it wants to remove dependent objects (which are both 3.x & 7.0 scenarios).
If try and migrate the 3.x DataSource to 7.0 (Rightclick: Migrate), it gives me an Error Message no. RSDS163 - Export DataSource 8AUEQUIPMTM(CBW230ALE) in myself system: Object type RSDS not possible
I can't find anything on OSS, but I suspect Export DataSources are not supported in the 7.0 format as yet.
As such, I am required to leave 3.x scenario intact to process the 7.0 scenario.
This isn't a great problem, but it is a little messy and confusing for the person administering the loads.
Can anyone tell me if it possible to make an Export DataSource into 7.0 DataSource?
Many thanks
Adrian

Hi,
when needed, you can indeed convert datasources from v3.5 to V7, and back, using transaction RSDS. Choose "with export". This "saves" the "other" version, and so it can be "restored" afterwards via RSDS again.
This is also true after DS replication from a sourcesystem, when the system asks whether you want the new replicated DS to be 3.X or V7. Either you choose, you can convert afterwards if needed.

  • HT4910 Hello, so i have a question my sister and i both have the iphone 4s now and i was getting our i cloud to connect and all my contacts moved over to her phone. She delated them, and they are now all gone on my phone. can they be recovered?

    if contacts are deleted through from one i phoe to anouther iphones on the same icloud can the delated contactsbe recovered?

    This is most likely because you are using the same iCloud account on both iPhones. To use iCloud you both require your own Apple ID.
    Unless you have a recent backup of your iPhone, then the contacts are lost.

  • Black jpegs - can they be made to come alive again?

    I have a lot of black & white jpeg photos that must have been exported from photoshop in grayscale format as they only show up in iphoto 08 as black thumbnails and blotched when full size.
    Is there some way I can add whatever is necessary to make them work in iphoto 08? Would they show properly in Aperture 2.0?

    There's a way you can convert those files to sRGB in the iPhoto library somewhat automatically.
    1 - download and run the demo version of iView MediaProo to catalog the library. See the first part of Tutorial #1 .
    2 - in the Catalog Fields pane open the Color Profile area and click on the button next to the Dot Gain 20% (that's the grayscale) line. This will select all of the photos in the library that are grayscale, both originals and thumbnails.
    3 - do a Command+A to select all photos and go to the Action->Manage Color Profiles... menu.
    4 - in the next window select Remove embedded profile and click OK.
    5 - with the files still selected go to the Action->Convert Image Files menu option.,
    6 - in the next window select the following properties:
    Size: use image size
    Settings: Color and Quality: best
    Resolution: use image resolution.
    Files: replace original files.
    7 - click Convert.
    When that's done the original file will display OK but the thumbnail will not. You'll have to launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options to rebuild the thumbnails and get all of your photos displaying as they should.
    I just ran that on a test library and it did convert the original and thumbnail files OK.

  • IPhones - can they connect remotely to iCal server?

    Can I take an iPhone and have it access a server based iCal server? If so how?
    Also, if users have remote laptops, OS X Leopard, that are never brought into the office, how can they be set up to access and use the iCal server?
    Thanks in advance - Lewis

    correct. there's no need to port forward if clients connect via vpn.
    you'd configure the remote clients just the same as you would for clients on your LAN, because they'd essentially be on your network over the vpn tunnel anyway. do you mean how would you configure these machines remotely? i'd start by working out a test config, writing up a how-to for your remote users to follow and use screen sharing/ARD if they can't get it to work. test this yourself before rolling out to clients.
    that long string in the calendar URL is the user's generated UID in the open directory node. you can use that, which is harder to type, or something like http://calendar.example.com:8008/principals/users/shortname/calendar/
    both should work.
    for group calendars, you'd use: http://calendar.example.com:8008/principals/groups/name/calendar/

  • I can not export my slideshow to any format. iPhoto always lost some photos for me.

    For example, I make a slideshow with 12 photos, but when I export this slideshow to 'Display' format, just only 2 or 3 photos in it. Anyone tell me how to fix?

    I am having this same issue:  exported slideshow eventually photos disappear, screen is white but music continues.
    I am on a brand new Mac Book Pro OS X  10.7.3
    Using iPhoto 11
    I did not use the Ken Burns effect - Classic instead
    I have 404 photos set to music a put into Garage Band and exported into iTunes.
    It plays perfect in iPhoto, which all photos at the right moments with the songs.
    Then one photo skips by quickly without a transition  and a number of photos are then not seen which causes the syncronization with music to alter.
    Then the photos stop all together screen turns white and the music continues.
    Need to burn it to DVD have exported it twice with different results but both similar to above, each time.
    One poster said the computer got too hot and he believed exporting stopped. He tried putting a fan near to keep cool and then it worked.  Sounds a bit impossible.
    Thoughts?  Thanks.

  • Can you include navigational attribute in export datasource

    Can you include a navigational attribute in an export datasource?  If so, how.
    Thanks.
    Sandy

    hi sandy,
    i don't think so. navigational attributes are not available. you need to understand that in case of an ODS object the export data source is generated out of the change log table, so if any field missing in the change log table it will not be part of the export data source.
    In case of cubes the characteristics and key figures reflects in the export data source.
    but why do you need navigational attributes in export data source ? it conflicts the nature of nav attributes as you will be storing the history statically with reference to the data when it was loaded. if you really want the same nav attributes in your subsequent data targets then include the characteristic which has the desired nav attributes in your target cube and map it from the export data source of the source info-provider. Switch on the nav attributes in the target info-providers.
    hope it helps
    thanks

  • Can you export aperture file in bmp format?

    I have a game that I would like to combine picture files with, the game only recognizes bmp files. I import the files (as bmp files) into Aperture and edit them and when I export them they always come out as jpeg files. Is there anyway I can export them in the bmp format?
    Thanks

    Using Applescript it is possible to do the conversion using Image Events.  This script (modified from a script I found online) will convert the selected image into BMP format saving it as a new file:
    set this_file to choose file without invisibles
    set the target_file to (choose file name default name "newimage.bmp")
    -- convert file reference in alias format to path string
    set the target_path to the target_file as Unicode text
    try
              tell application "Image Events"
      -- start the Image Events application
      launch
      -- open the image file
                        set this_image to open this_file
      -- save in new file
      save this_image as BMP in target_path with icon
      -- purge the open image data
      close this_image
              end tell
    on error error_message
      display dialog error_message buttons {"Cancel"} default button 1
    end try

  • I just upgraded from Express to Pro.  When I open a project in Finder and neither Express nor Pro are running, it always opens in Express.  "Open With ..." says Express is the default.  How can I make Pro the default instead?

    Well, when I've done things like that it always sems like a good idea to keep an application that you know the file will definitely open in...

  • How can I export the universe  to CSV format in Rational      (java)

    How can I export the universe to CSV format in Rational ,please give me one demo .thanks!!

    There's no direct access to an Universe from Java - Universes do have an SDK, but it's COM-based.
    If what you want is to retrieve data from the Universe, what you can do is create a Web Intelligence document reporting off that Universe, create a Query with the data you want from the Universe, then use the ReportEngine (REBean) SDK to retrieve the ResultSet from the Query - note that there's no CSV export option, so you'd have to walk through the ResultSet and write to an CSV yourself.

  • Issues in exporting SSRS report to PDF format in Report Server - Blank spaces are deleted

    Hi Gurus,
    I have a problem in exporting SSRS report to PDF format. It deletes all the blank spaces when I use bullet in a Text box and try to export to PDF formt in Report Server . For example
    •             Project submitted to the TRC
    Result in PDF format:
         • ProjectsubmittedtotheTRC
    I also noted that when I try to export to PDF in Visual Stuio 2005 (Business Intelligence development studio), it does not delete any blank spaces and shows the correct aligned Data in PDF format.
    Please help me as it is frustrating a lot
    I would highly appreciate for your quick response 

    Was there ever a solution found for this as i have the same issue.
    When bullet point is entered in a field all the spaces are removed when exported to PDF
    i tried exporting to excel and it does not remove spaces, however this is no use to me as it needs to be in PDF
    Using IE 7 (Don't think the browser has anything to do with it as this happened via a subscription)
    Didn't know SSRS had specific Service Packs, i though they came as patches to SQL Server (SQL Server is on Service Pack 3)
    This should be easy to replicate all you need to do is copy text containing a bullet point into a sql server database field and then add this field to a report export to pdf and the spaces are gone
    Thanks in advance,

    is it possible to export a slideshow in 1080p format and then show it on a projection TV in 1080? if so, how - what conversions are necessary

    Getting it out of Aperture is not a problem. When you export the slide show select 1080p as the export format.
    What happens then gets tricky. To create a true high def 1080p DVD requires Blu-Ray. So you will need an external Blu-Ray recoreder and software to create the DVD.
    If you're hooking your computer up to the TV then you'll have better luck.
