Automate the migration process from BW to BI

I want to automate the process of migration from BW to BI. Currently as we know this is done manually. I studied the program that is generated at runtime. How is this program triggered?
Is it possible to combine all the steps of migration into a single step where a user can input the details and then the migration takes place by itself?
Thanks
Kushagra

not impossible?
How are you going to let your program decide what to do about a corrupt table etc?
The upgrade may stop at the active-table of a DSO for example.
IMO the upgrade is already highly automated.
An upgrade without human interaction is very risky.
If you are talking about migrating queries and workbooks, that's a whole other issue.

HT204350 Started the transfer process from my old MacBook to a new MacBook pro using Migration assistant 12 hours ago. The screen says transferring your information. Moving about 270 GB using an Ethernet cable directly connected. Is this normal?

You can get a thunderbolt to firewire adapter. You can then get a firewire 400 to 800 cable and put the old computer in target mode. Then you can follow these instructions.

How to automate the employees info. from R/3 to xRPM for object type P

We need to automate the employees information (new/change) whose object type (P) from R/3 system to xRPM system (CProject component).
We did ALE distribution model with the message type (HRMD_ABA) and able to achieved distribution(R/3 -> xRPM) thru manual step using PFAL transaction. I have no issues on this part.
Now we want to automate the same process to distribution(R/3 -> xRPM) that whenever employees have been created/change in R/3.
By using standard program RBDIDOC which can be achieve by defining background job with message type HRMD_ABA. But it pulls all the object types for the given message type at selection screen. But i am interested only employees with object type P.
There is no much provision existed to restrict only for employees with object type (P).
Systems Release version details:
Source(R/3 system version): SAP R/3 Enterprise
Target(xRPM: SAP ECC 6.0 with HR component: 6.00)
Any help would be appreciated...

How we can automate the data loading from BI-BPC

Dear Guru's
Thanks for watching this thread,my question is
How we can load the data from BI7.0 to BPC.My environment is SAP-BI 7.0 and BPC is 7.5 MS version and 2008SQL.
How we can automate the data loading from BI- BPC Ms version.Is manual flat file load is mandatory in ms version.
Thanks in Advance,
Srinivasan.

Here are some options
1) Use standars packages and schedule them :
A) Openhub masterdata file into a flat file/ BPC App server and Schedule the package - Import Master Data from a Data File and other relevent packages.
2 ) Using Custom Tasks in Custom Packages ( SSIS)
Procedure
From the Microsoft SQL Server Business Intelligence Developer Studio, open the Microsoft SSIS folder.
Create a new package, or select an existing package to modify.
Choose Task Register Custom Task .
In the Task Location field, browse for the target .dll file.
Note
By default, the .dll files are stored in BPC/Websrvr/bin.
End of the note.
Enter a task description, select an appropriate icon, then click OK.
Drag the icon to the designer window. Enter data as required.
Save the package.

HT4796 how long does the migration process take?

How long does the migration process take? And can you speed it up?

That's rather like asking how long is a piece of string.
It depends on how much you've got to migrate. Make sure that you run software update on the old machine before you start the migration. Failure to do this is one of the biggest causes of problems people have with this process.

Automate the Publish process?

Is there a way to automate the Publish process? I am referring to, for example, publishing via the Command Prompt on Windows or Console on Mac. Thanks.

I'm very glad to see this topic which I do want!
I think I have some trouble like this topic.
I'm use BPM enterprise / studio 6.0
I'm use BPM studio which base on eclipse to clean and compile the BPM project.
trouble: the speed is so slowly and I can't stand it!
question: For convenient, is there ant task for clean and compile BPM project which like we did on normal java project?
For this topic, I found a ant task named "publish" which we can point to a BPM project(unnecessary an *.exp file) and publish to BPM server. Although I failed on doing this, but "user9946127 " can try to do it.
hope helpful and hope someone can help me.
thanks.

Hi, I'm using Firefox 3.6.3 and I'd liek to know if there's a way to automate the login process for a website asking for credentials.

I have a website I'm using very other on my company's Intranet, but it requires a username and password. I'd like to see if there's a way to automate the login credentials

Thanks a lot for your swift response. And sorry if it was a bit too hectic to go through my detailed query (which I did because it was misunderstood when I asked previously). As I've mentioned above, I was informed that updating to 5.0.1 would '''require''' me to '''delete''' the current version and then install the new one. And doing so will involve losing all my bookmarks. I guess I should have been more specific and detailed there. By losing, I didn't mean losing them forever. I'm aware that they're secured in some place and deleting and installing the software doesn't harm its existence. What I meant that if I install the new version, I'd have to delete the old one. And after installing the new version, I'd have to transfer them (bookmarks) back from wherever they are. Get it? When it updated from 3.6.9 to 3.6.13, and from 3.6.13 to 3.6.18, I didn't need to follow that process. They were already present on their own.
BTW, I'm having no problems with 3.6.18 but after learning about the existence of version 5.0.1, I'm a bit too eager to lay my hands over it.
Thanks for your help; hope this wasn't extremely long.

What's the migration path from ACS v3.3 to ACS v5.1?

It's a standalone appliance 1112 running on ACS v3.3, how to migrate to another standalone appliance 1120 with ACS v5.1?
Does CISCO have any documents about this?
I remember I used to read an article about how to build a temp ACS v4.2 windows to help this kind of migration, could anyone help to send the doc link to me?

Your basic assumption is correct. There needs to be a two stage process where first migrate to ACS 4.2 on Windows and then from there perform migration to ACS 5.0/5.1.
When ordering ACS 5.0/ACS 5.1 the disk set includes all the software required to perform this upgrade.
Going from from 4.2 to ACS 5.0/5.1 is migration; not upgrade; since need this reads a subset of the data items from ACS 4.2 and creates them on ACS 5.0/ACS5.1. This includes the bulk objects such as devices and internal users. However, the policy configuration on ACS 5.1 needs to be performed manually since follows a very different concept.
The migration guide can be found at: http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/net_mgmt/cisco_secure_access_control_system/5.1/migration/guide/Migration_Book.html

If Migration Assistant hangs up in the middle of the migrating process what should I do?

What is the Migration Assistant's default behavior in Lion? About 3/4 of the way through a 10 hr. process of file migration from my old PC to my new Mac Mini the Migration Assistant has hung up on me.I am scared to close it out and start over for the fear that I will have to transfer the whole lot of files all over again. If I do close it out and begin the process again will the migration assistant pick up where it left off or will it indeed start from scratch from the very beginning?

Kamath,
If the channel is inactive , it will error out in Integration Engine itself, so u can restart those messages manually.
Also, lets say the receiver system is not reachable(example JDBC), then what happens? You can find those messages in
http://host:port/MessagingSystem/monitor/monitor.jsp . In the window left frame choose Received Messages , in the right frame choose Status Not Delivered. Change the time frame and click tab(there is no enter) , u can find list of messages. Now for each message u can find two options Delete, Re-Deliver ,click on Re-Deliver the message, it will go thru.

Looks like you don't have WebLogic classes on the classpath:
javax.naming.NoInitialContextException: Cannot instantiate class: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory [Root exception is java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory]
Other options for creating an instance are to use a web service call or one of the other adapters (e.g. JMS). If you need to directly start a process you might also look at this blog from the ATeam:
http://redstack.wordpress.com/worklist/
The specific example for getting the tasks is at: http://redstack.wordpress.com/2011/03/09/implementing-task-initiation/
Then the real work of creating an instance from the initiator tasks is at: http://redstack.wordpress.com/2011/03/09/creating-the-domain-layer-for-the-worklist/

Issue in invoking the BPEL process from Oracle using a SOAP Request

Hi,
We are facing an issue while invoking a deployed Bpel Process from Oracle Applications 11.5.10..
Using a concurrent program( Unix / Host program ) we are passing the input variables required for the Bpel process in the ProcessRequest tags and forming this as a SOAP message payload.
Then trying to invoke the deployed bpel process using the end point location using HTTP POST..but nothing is happening..
The bpel process is not getting invoked when i look at the Console and also checked for the Manual Recovery queue..it's not stuck there as well..
Have set the Transfer Time Out to 25 minutes using UTL_HTTP.SET_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT(1500);
Could someone please help us as soon as possible with this ..as this is critical and we are stuck at the moment.
The logic is mentioned below :
UTL_HTTP.SET_TRANSFER_TIMEOUT(1500);
UTL_HTTP.SET_DETAILED_EXCP_SUPPORT(ENABLE=>TRUE);
