Capturing From Two Different Sources

Hello, how reliable is it to capture from two different sources using the following sceario:
1. Powerbook G4 15" Using the digital optical audio input for sound and using the DV 1394 Input for DV video
2. In FCP, selecting "Digital Optical Input" for AUDIO and DV for video
3. Hit capture now since it is going to be recorded live
Any thoughts folks?
Trying to avoid bying the firestore $8,000 solution

Hi,
I don't see any problems in that scenario - if your disc is fast enough, that is! I've never worked with a G4 Powebook but in theory, it all comes down to the spped of the storage you have. The safest scenariio, az suggested above, would be to try it beforehand. You should also considerthe length of the live recording as opposed to the disc space you have. I don't know about the "firestore" solution but a firewire "LaCie" external disc is a cheap solution and it works fine with the G4 Powebook. Another issue is what FCP compressor to use during capture! Try it!

Differentiating Master Data from two different source systems

Friends,
i have used standard InfoObjects that provide master data for two InfoCubes which take data from two different source systems. Now the some of the master data is identical in both the source systems (example: 10 stands for "Industrial" in one whereas 10 stands for "Agricultural" in the other). What do i do so that the system(BW) differentiates the two.
Thanks in advance for all the help.
Mike

I tried to include the 0SOURSYSTEM in the compounding of this InfoObject (for master data) but it gives me a list of other objects that use this InfoObject as a reference characteristic and also says that this InfoObject is used in a ODS and data needs to be emptied in the ODS before activating this InfoObject. Please let me know if there is any way out of it.
Thanks
Mike

One target table is loading from two different source but same columns but one source is in a database and other is in a flat file.

Hope you all are doing good.
I have a business issue to be implemented in ODI 11G. Here it is. I am trying to load a target table from two sources having same coulmn names. But one source is in file format and other is in Oracle Database.
This is what i think i will create two mappings in the same interface using Union between the sources. But i am not sure how the interface would connect to different logical architecture to connect to two different sources.
Thanks,
SM

You are on the right track, this can all be done in a single interface. Do the following
1) Pull your file data model into the source designer and and your target table model to the target pane.
2) Map all the relevant columns
3) In the source designer create a new dataset and choose the UNION join type (this will create a separate tab in the source designer pane)
4) Select the new dataset tab in the source designer pane and pull your source oracle table data model into the source designer. Map all the relevant columns to the target
5) Make sure that your staging location is defined on a relational technology i.e. in this case the target would be an ideal candidate as that is where ODI will stage the data from both file and oracle source and perform the UNION before loading to the target

I would like to capture from several different sources simultaneously.

Is this realistic with one computer or would it be better to purchase additional units for capturing as well. And if I was using them primarily for the purpose of capturing as well as networking for the sake of speeding up compressor would any of the smaller systems be adequate?
(I could possibly need to capture from up to 4 devices at the same time)

What Randy and David say is true.
Here's my story.
For the last few summers, I pick one day to do a sunrise to sunset time lapse capture from the deck of my lake cottage. The camera looks out across the back lawn, to the dock, the lake and the hills on the far side - about 1/2 mile away. The sky is an enormous presence.
The first time I did this was a spur of the moment lark - a "wouldn't it be cool if" moment. I had a camera, a tripod, my laptop and software which could capture using time lapse. I hooked things up quickly, turned everything on and voilà. The video turned out wonderfully. Each year since, the production has gotten a a bit more involved.
Last year ...
I watched the weather reports daily. I went online tracking weather patterns moving across the continent. This was all undertaken to pinpoint the day when we would likely get the perfect combination of sky, light clouds, strong sun, wind and water.
It looked like the day was coming. The evening before I placed the camera on a weighted and braced tripod in a secure area on the back porch. It was under cover and secured to keep it from moving if there was a breeze. The area was cordoned to keep people from walking on that part of the deck to prevent vibrations. The laptop computer went inside the house on a very secure table. The camera and computer were both connected to house power but each had a fully charged battery attached if we lost power.
I ran a 3 meter Granite Digital firewire cable from the camera outside to the laptop computer in the house. All cables were taped down or routed so there was no possibility for someone to trip over them. The firewire cable was connected to the laptop via a PCMCIA firewire card and there was an external FW400 drive connected via the computer's OEM port to hold the captured material. The drive was bus powered so even if we lost power, the computer's battery would keep things going.
Before I went to bed, I insulated and covered the camera with a waterproof setup to keep it from getting wet from condensation or there was an unexpected thunderstorm during the night.
Up before dawn, I uncovered the camera and had the capture running when the first light showed in the eastern sky. It was a spectacular sunrise.
After breakfast, I checked on the setup. It was humming along so I went for a swim, ran errands in town, played a round of golf.
It was a beautiful day. The clouds were marching across the sky, the lake had small ripples as wind played on the surface. The sun was strong which generated sharp shadows marking the passage of time. The whole day I was thinking, "we nailed it, this is THE PERFECT day to capture".
Late afternoon, I came into the house and on my way upstairs to take a shower and change for dinner, I noticed the laptop. The cover was closed. I had left it open. With my heart racing, I opened the lid and the computer woke up ...
Someone - (no one ever admitted to touching the machine - even under threats of withholding all ice cream) - closed the lid and the machine went to sleep. There was no capture as the temp file ended up without an EOF marker. All that I had to show for the day was a several hundred MB unrecoverable file.
The next day dawned with a foggy rain that hung on for the last few days of vacation ...
good luck,

I am trying to load table from one database table to another database table in ODI 10g.I have created two physical and logical topology.
But when in interface design i have drag the source and target tables in the diagram window, but here it doesnot shows the auto mapping options, when i try it manually by dragging a field, i have failed. when i execute the operation the following error occured:

Setting Up a New Mac From Two Different Time Machine Back-ups?

Greetings Apple People,
I am planning on getting a new iMac. Right now my wife I are still using our separate MacBooks from college. Both of them have Time Machine back-ups. We would like to setup our new iMac to have two different users. Is it possible to setup each of the users on the new iMac from our respective Time Machine back-ups?
I know you can do this seamlessly with one Time Machine back-up, but can you do it from two different back-ups, essentially merging the two, while keeping the separate user profiles?
Thanks!

Follow the steps in Pondini's Setup New Mac guide using one computer as the source on first boot. Then, hook up the second computer and use the Migration Assistant to transfer the second user account and nothing else. Don't use the TM backup because it's much slower doing it that way than directly from each machine.

Capture from Two Tables and Apply in one Table

Hi All,
Is it possible to capture from two tables (master and child table) and apply in one table?
For example,
1. DEPT and EMP tables in source database with relation
DEPT table structure is like DEPT_ID, DEPT_NAME, LOC_NAME
EMP table structure is like EMP_ID, EMP_NAME, EMP_DOJ, EMP_SAL, DEPT_ID
2. EMP_DEPT_STAGING in destination database
EMP_DEPT_STAGING table structure is like EMP_ID, EMP_NAME, EMP_DOJ, EMP_SAL, DEPT_ID. DEPT_NAME, LOC_NAME
if there is any update in DEPT table, EMP_DEPT_STAGING should get populated with Department and its employee details. Similarly, if there is any update in EMP table EMP_DEPT_STAGING table should get populated with Employee details and along with department detail.
Is it possible to accomplish this? If yes, could you please provide me some examples?
Thanks & Regards

Collecting data from two R3 source systems

Dear All,
Scenario:
We are in the process of implementing SAP BI 7.0 in our organisation.
We have a single BI server (7.01) collecting data from two source
systems from two different divisions within the group.
The first system is of Company 1 where we have IS u2013 MILL (ECC 6.0).
BI has been implemented and running successfully in this unit. Now we
have started implementing BI in the second unit u2018Company 2u2019
where the industry specific solution IS u2013 AFS (ECC 6.0) is the source
system.
We are activating BI Standard Content for AFS. When we try to upload
master data, we face a problem.
The master data (0Division, 0Mat_Grp_3, etc.) is already loaded with
IS Mill data (data from the first source system). Now when the data is
loaded from IS AFS (second source system), wherever, the same key
exists in the info object, we notice that the existing data is
overwritten by the freshly loaded data, thus causing loss of existing
data.
A typical example is as follows:
BW Data u2013 Source system 1 u2013 (Before upload of data from source system
2):
0Division
99         EN          Stock Transfer Out
AFS Data (Source system 2) -
0Division
99         EN             STO
BW Data u2013 Source system 1 u2013 (After upload of data from source system 2):
After uploading the master data from AFS, the Values areu2026
0Division
99        EN            STO
The original data is lost.
Similar problem is noticed with other master data as well.
Please suggest the right methodology for upload of master data when
data to BW is sourced from two systems. How to retain the data in the
same Infoobject but at the same time maintain distinction between the
data from the two systems.
We donu2019t find any specific mention of such scenarios in the standard
documentation.
Will such a problem recur when we upload transactional data?
Regards,
Aslam Khan

Hi Aslam,
            Please use some compounding attribute for your master data object like Sourcesystem ID. While loading the master data from different source systems... you should have two different flows to fill the same master data object. In each flow you can specify the Source system ID as constant value ... eg SS1 (Source system 1) and SS2(Source system 2) in each of the data flows.   This should solve your issue without overwriting your master data
Thanks

APEX Application accessing data from two different databases

Hi All,
Currently as we all know that APEX Application resides in database and is connected to the schema of that database.
I want APEX Application to be running and accessing data from two different databases. Elaborating my question,
Currently, my APEX Production Application is connected with XXXX Schema of DB1 Database(Where APEX Resides). Now I want to add some pages into this APEX Application for REPORT Purpose, But I want to connect this REPORT APEX Pages to get data from Different Schema YYYY for Database DB2.
Is it possible to configure this scenario?
The reason for doing this is to avoid the REPORT related (adhoc queries) resource utilization effect on Production DB1 Database.
Thanks
Nil

1. If you do the joining of two or more tables in DB1 then all data is pulled over to DB1 and then the join is executed: so more data over the databaselink and more work for DB1. Better keep the joining stuff where the data resides and just pull exactly that data over that you need.
2. Don't know about your different block sizes. Seems a nice question for one of the other forums (DBA or SQL).
3. I mean create synonyms on DB1 for reports VIEWS in DB2.
Hope all is clear!

How to create a foreign key for the table from two different tables?

Hi All,
I have a three table like below. In the below table SAMPLE_CONS_CHECK and SAMPLE_CONS2_CHECK will be having the primary key for NAME column. The same SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK table also having the primary key for NAME column and forieign key for SAMPLE_CONS_CHECK and SAMPLE_CONS2_CHECK tables. See the below code 2
code 1:
CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_CONS_CHECK
        (NAME VARCHAR2(10),
        SERIES VARCHAR2(5)
CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_CONS2_CHECK
        (NAME VARCHAR2(5),
         MODEL NUMBER
CREATE TABLE SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK
        (NAME VARCHAR2(5),
         MODEL_NO NUMBER
        )code 2
alter table SAMPLE_CONS_CHECK
add constraint SAMPLE_CONS_CHECK_pk primary key (NAME)
alter table SAMPLE_CONS2_CHECK
add constraint SAMPLE_CONS2_CHECK_pk primary key (NAME)
alter table SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK
add constraint SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK_pk primary key (NAME)
ALTER TABLE SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK ADD
CONSTRAINT SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK_FK1 FOREIGN KEY
     NAME
) REFERENCES SAMPLE_CONS_CHECK
    NAME
) ON DELETE CASCADE;
ALTER TABLE SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK ADD
CONSTRAINT SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK_FK2 FOREIGN KEY
     NAME
) REFERENCES SAMPLE_CONS2_CHECK
    NAME
) ON DELETE CASCADE;From the above schenario i am able to insert the data to SAMPLE_CONS3_CHECK table. But the parent data is already available in the parent table. The problem is here two different constarints from two different tables. While inserting, it is checking from both the tables whether the parent is exist or not.
How can i solve this problem? Can anyone halp me about this?
Thanks

Actually the design is completely incorrect.
What you say is
I have
'foo', 'foo series'
'foo','foo model'
'foo',666
By virtue of table3 referring to both table1 and table2.
This means you actually need to have 1 (one) table:
'foo','foo series','foo model', 666
And the 'problem' disappears.

How to create Analysis from two different subject areas with diff models

Hello,
I have problem with create analysis from two different areas with two different models (Model Star and Snowflakes) build in BI Admin tools.
First Model A = Subject Area A have one fact tables (with measures) and three dimensions tables (Model Star)
Second Model B = Subject Area B have one fact table (no measures) and five dimensions tables (Model Snowflakes).
I'm looking solutions how I can give good results. In this case I can't use UNION, INTERSECT etc., because this models haven't the same number column and data type?
whether it is possible to do in OBIEE?
Please help me
Kind regard
robix

Hi
One thing to understand is that if your are imagining having two Subject Areas (SAs) displayed and then dragging columns from each into your Request without any preparation, then no, that can't be done. You would need to do a join in the BMM layer and expose the column from the second Subject Area in the presentation layer.
But if you indeed interested in UNION (or intersect) queries, then do this:
Build your first query in the first SA in the usual manner. Note the number of columns and the data types of each column.
Now at the bottom of the Criteria workspace, there is a button called "Combine with similar request." Click it.
Select your second SA. You will note that the outlines of the columns in your first query appear. This is to remind you that the number of columns in this second query must be the same as in the first. It also shows the data type of each column for the same reason.
Once you select your columns and your filters, click on result. (Oh, you will also need to decide what kind of combination you want -- click on the dropdown.) The result will be a new Request that has data from both SAs in the query and combined in the manner you select (union, intersect, etc.)
That should give you a start.
