BOBJ Metadata Management Version

Hello,
Is there BOBJ Metadata Management Version 3.1 available? I can only see BOBJ Metadata Management Version 3.0 in the service marketplace.
Regaards

Jørn Erik,
I just double checked about compatibility :
BOMM 12.0 FP1 (BOMM v12.0.0.1) supports BOE XI 3.1.
BOMM 12.0 (BOMM v12.0.0.0) does not support BOE XI 3.1.
So if you use the BOMM 12.0 FP1 version, you should not run not issues. If this is the case (fatal error) we should investigate this. Please open a case with support so that we can get the details.
Thanks,
Ben.

Compability: BOE 3.x vs Metadata Management

Hi,
I did install BOE 3.0, level FP1, and Metadata Management 12.0.0.1 (FP1), and that works well. I was also told at the same time that BOMM 3.0 was not compatible with BOE 3.1. That was a couple of months ago.
And now I am considering doing an upgrade of my BOE. So the question is - how is this compability picture now ? I do not find anything about this issue in the releasenotes either.
My scenarios are:
1. If the new BOE 3.1 FP1 is compatible with BOMM 12.0.0.1 I preferably want to do that.
2. If not, what about BOE 3.0 FP2, is that compatible with BOMM 12.0.0.1 ?
Thanks,

OWB Change Management/Version Control Best Practice

Hi
I am about to start developing a data warehouse using OWB 10g R2, and I've been doing quite a lot of research into the various deployment/change management/version control techniques that can be used, but am still unsure which is the best to use.
We will have 2-3 developers working on the project, and will be deploying from Development, to Test, to Production (each will have a separate repository). We want to be able to easily identify changes made between 1 release and the next to have a greater degree of control and awareness of what goes into each release. We also wish to use a source control system to track changes (we'll probably use SVN, but I don't think that the actual SCS tool makes a big difference to our decision at this point).
The options available (that I'm aware of), are:
1. Full MDL export/import.
2. Snapshot MDL export/import.
3. Manual coding of everything using OMB Plus.
I am loath to use the full MDL export/import functionality since it will be difficult, if not impossible, to identify easily the changes made between 1 release and the next.
The snapshot MDL export/import functionality is a little better at comparing releases, but it's still difficult to see exactly what has changed between 1 version and the next - particularly when a change to a transformation has been made. It also doesn't cope that well with tracking individually made changes to different components of the model.
The manual coding using OMB Plus seems like the best option at the moment, though I keep thinking "What's the point of using a GUI tool, if I'm just going to code everything in scripts anyway?".
I know that you can create OMB Plus code generation scripts to create your 'creation' scripts, but the code generation of the Alteration scripts seems that it would be more complicated than just writing the Alteration scripts manually.
Any thoughts anyone out there has would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Liffey

Well, you can also do per-object MDL exports and then manage those in your version control system. With a proper directory structure it would be fairly simple to code an OMB+ Script that scans a release directory tree and imports the objects one by one. I have done this before, although if you are using OWB as the primary metadata location for database objects then you have to come up with some way to manage object dependency order issues.
The nice thing about this sort of system is that a patch can be easily shipped with only those objects that need to be updated.
And if you force developers to put object-level MDL into your version control system then your system should also have pretty reporting on what objects were changed for a release and why.
At my current job we do full exports of the project MDL and have a deployment script that drops the pre-existing deployed version of the project before importing and deploying the new version, which also works quite well - although as you note the tracking of what has changed in a release then needs to be carefully managed elsewhere. But we don't deploy any of our physical database objects through OWB. Those are deployed from Designer, and our patch script applies all physical changes first before we replace the mappings from the OWB project. We don't even bother synching the project metadata for tables / views / etc. at deployment. If the OWB project's metadata for database objects is not in sync with Designer, then we wind up with deployment errors. But on the whole it works pretty well.

Metadata Management Custom Reports

Does anyone know where there is documentation on configuration or usage of the Metadata reports available in Information Steward?
I am prompted for login credentials to the repository but nothing that I try works. To make things worse, it seems to cause Tomcat to shut down.
In the versions of Metadata Management used with Business Objects XI3.1, you had to go to the reports to configure the JDBC connections for the reports. I can't find any documentation on where the reports are stored much less on how to configure the connection to the Metadata Management repository database.
I am running Information Steward 4.2sp2 hosted on Information Platform Services 4.1sp3.

hi Phani,

Information Steward Metadata Management Relatinal Database link

Hi,
Is it possible to access specific Relational database through URL in Information Steward Metadata Management. We are trying to
provide a link in webi which can directly access a specific database metadata in Metadata Management.
Version used in SAP BO 4.0 SP7.
Does anyone know if this is possible or can provide any ideas/suggestions?
Thank you.

Hi Ramakrishna,
We are looking for a way where a database specific URL can be provided to the user to browse relational database metadata in the Metadata Management module of Information Steward.
For eg. If there are 150 databases for which IS has collected metadata, we want to provide a link for a database which the user is interested in, rather than the user accessing IS and navigating to a database from the 150 listed.
Hope this helps you in understanding the requirement better.
Thank you.

What is Metadata Management ?

Hey Gurus,
When you say metadata management , what does it mean ?
Is it the administartive operations which we can perform in Metadata Repository ?
I would appreciate if someone could put some light on various uses of Metadata Repository in BW..
Thanks in advance
Swapnil

hi
Meta data means data about data...
all BI objects like info objects,info sources,ods,info providers,queries(each and every object is data objects in BI).
The information about all these objects(all the above objects) like
Who created this object?
when this object is created?
what is the version of this object?
what is the status(active/modified) of this object..
All this information is stored in meta data repository...
RSA1>meta data repository>here you can see all the objects with types with versions,time,author etc(if you double click on purticular object)
please have a look at the below url for metadata repository
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/4e/ea683c25e9096de10000000a114084/frameset.htm
Hope it helps

Metadata Management (Manager) Customization

Hello,
I need to change UI layout of SAP BO Metadata Management, add some buttons and custom logic. But found only "custom attributes". Is there an opportunity to change the layout of BO MM?
At the same time I need to extend (BW) integration procedure. Is there any SDK or API that can be used for extensions?
(IMHO I need a way to add addition functionality in com.bobj.mm.integrator.bw.DataModelResource or similar class)
Thanks in advance!

no, there is no option/SDK to customize BOMM Explorer UI
there is no SDK either for extending functionality for end user for a Integrator, you can file a enhancement request through support if something is missing from BW Integrator

Multiple users on a network share: how to manage versions, prevent overwriting?

Setting up file shares on a Mini Server with 10.8 server.
How can a group of users share access to a volume, while managing versions of a file (other than saving with a new file name) and preventing two users editing a file simultaneously and overwriting each other's work?

Bridge determine if an image has cache by scanning local database in the local user data folder.
You can try enabling export local cache. This might also meet your request.
1) Open Edit > Preference dialog.
2) Select Cache section.
3) Check Automatically Export Cache To Folders When Possible.
This will export cache to the folder where the images stay in. And Bridge will automatically import this cache to central cache when a new user access to this folder.

How to Connect SQL Server enterprises Manager Version 8.0 with Form 6i

Dear experts
I want to know that How can I connect SQL server Enterprise Manager Version 8.0 with Forms/reprots 6i.
currently I have oracle 9i database at server windows 2003 and I also connected with client (my PC) I work on server.
I also have SQL server in that server 2003 machine and this SQL Server also work with other clients that have VB program.
I want to know that can I connect with this SQL server with Form 6i?

You can't. The closest thing would be to create links in an oracle database to the SQL Server database using Heteregeneous Services and connect forms to the that.
This forum is for the SQLDeveloper tool. You will get more complete answers in the "Database General", or "Heterogeneous Services" forums

What is the best practice to manage versions in XI?

Hi!
Is there any <b>good</b> best practice ways to manage versions in XI.
Have a challenging scenario with many legacy systems and many interfaces per legacy system.
Should I put all the different interfaces for one legacy system under one namespace in the Integration Repository or should I make one own namespace for each interface.
Or is there other approaches, that I should consider to get a environment that is easily maintained.
br.samuli

Hi,
In our project we have defined our own naming conventions/namespaces.
For instance, we have agreed that we will group all interfaces (from all offices worldwide and different projects) into one single product version.
This global custom product will in turn be divided into different SWC (Software Components) and SWCV (Software Component versions).
So for each business scenario we will create separate SWC's and when necessary create new versions of these SWC's.
This means that each SWC should contain all the required objects to support a complete integration scenario i.e. inbound/outbound-interfaces, data types, msg types, business scenario's etc...

Rob.

CDR FIles in Call Manager version 7.1.5-30000

Good Morning:
I have a cluster of servers Cisco Call Manager version 7.1.5.30000; 01 Publisher and 02 subscriber. The publisher server passes CDR files to a call accounting application PC-SYSTEL on another server. At one point the CDR files are no longer spend the Call Manager to the application PC-SYSTEL
Call manager services are reviewed, the part of CDR Management in Cisco Unified Serviciability right. The only solution is doing a RESTART to PUBLISHER server, and then again go CDR files to the application PC-SYSTEL
Please anyone has any solution other than to give a RESTART PUBLISHER server, or is this the only way to restore this service.
Expect your news.
Thanks in advance for any ideas.
Regards.
Fernando.

Hi Fernando,
Please check the following.
(1) Confirm that the billing server is configured correctly (verify the IP address). From the Cisco Unified Serviceability page, navigate to Tools > CDR Management to view the billing server parameters.
(2) Check if you can ping the billing server from the Publisher. From the Publisher CLI, you can use the following command:
utils network ping a.b.c.d
where a.b.c.d is the IP address of the billing server
(3) Check if the FTP (or SFTP) service/software running on the billing server.
(4) Check if the billing server is running out of disk-space.
(5) Check if the CDR Respository Manager service is running on the Publisher. If not, start the CDR Repository Manager service.
(6) On the Publisher, check the 'preserve' and 'destinationX' (X can be 1, 2 or 3) directories for CDR flat files. For example: if transfer of CDR files to billing server is broken from Jan 6th, then use the following commands:
file list activelog /cm/cdr_repository/preserve/20110106
file list activelog /cm/cdr_repository/destination1/20110106
(if multiple billing servers are configuration, the location will be similar to above, but the corresponding directories will be named destination2, destination3). This location contains symbolic links to files under preserve. CDR Repository Manager service uses these soft-links to determine what files need to be transfered to billing server.
If you don't observe files in either the 'preserve' or the 'destinationX' locations for the specific date, then it means that problem does not reside on the Publisher. Either the CDR records were not generated by the server that handled the call or it could mean that CDR Agent service on that server could not transfer flat files to the Publisher. Was the 'CDR Enabled Flag is enabled in CallManager service' enabled on that particular date ? Is the CDR Agent service running on the node that handled the call ?
If you observe files in the 'preserve' directory for the specific date, try restarting the CDR Repository Manager service on the Publisher. If the file transfer to the billing server does not commence, then set the trace level for the CDR Repository Manager service to Debug, wait 10 minutes, download CDR Repository Manager logs via RTMT and engage Cisco-TAC for further troubleshooting.

Errors in the metadata manager

Hi Experts,
Periodically we're seeing Error Event ID's 18 and 19 on our SSAS server (SQL Server 2008 R2) hosting SCSM Data Warehouse DB's.
The cube's appear to be processing OK from what I can tell, but everything I can find online relating to these errors indicates some corruption in the Data directory. We get these errors in two different, separate SCSM environments (SCSM 2012 SP1 UR4).
Has anyone ever experienced these Errors before?
Below are the details for these Errors.

Hi David,
Did you end up resolving this? I've just come across the same error this morning (different cube reference though) and am beginning to look at the issue.

Dependencies of Calculation View is not showing in metadata management of SAP IS

Hi
I have created calculated view based on 3 tables in sap hana and imported that view into SAP IS .but i am unable
view the 3 tables used by the calculation view in metadata management in SAP IS.
If i click on view impact/lineage for the calculation view it has to show the 3 tables right?

Hi Vamsi,
I order to see objects in IS/MM explorer. You need to run an integrator against the data base or repository the tables reside in.
So you imported the view into IS/DI correct?
Thanks,
BW
