COPA Datasource Migration from 3.x to BI 7.0

Hi Experts,
I am facing an issue to restore the migrated COPA datasource from 3.5 to BI 7.0.
I am doing this migration as mentioned below
1.selected the 3.x datasource and in context menu used migrate
2.used option "with export"
3_.No transport request was requested_
4.successfully migrated.
I am not getting the option "restore datasource" in the context menu of the migrated datasource.
I want to use this option if the solution is not working in the new BI 7.0 flow.
Thank you in advance for your inputs.
PKC

Hi Raghavendra
Thank u for ur earlier response.
I have tried your proposal. But, could did not succeed.
My issue Is I am not getting the option "restore datasource" after the migration & transport request is not requested while migration and hence the migrated datasource is locked as local object.
Thank x

Datasource migration from 3.5 to 7

Hi Expert,
BI 7 was installed in the environment with datasource 3.5 actviated in source system. I am not sure do I need to migrate datasources from 3.5 to 7.0? Can experts please share with me on what are the features available in datasource 7.0? Will datasource 7.0 improve on delta loading? Is migration a must from datasources 3.5 to 7.0?
Your reply is much appreciated.
Thanks and regards,
Kang Ring

Hi,
As correctly pointed out, the datasource migration is not required unless you plan to achieve the following:
1. RDA (Real Time data acquisition)
2. Direct access to master data.
3. Remote activation of datasource (meaning from BW itself, you can acitvate DS in ECC)
However the only checkpoint is that if you are using hierarchies, those have to be loaded with 3.5 datasources as 7.0 does not support hierarchies. It is supported in 7.3
Also check the link for BI 7.0 new features.

Datasource migration error from 3.5 to BI 7.0 - SP16

During Master data/text Datasource migration from 3.5 to BI 7.0 using export option, system migrates the datasource and shows error message 'The OLTP source 0COSTCENTER_ATTR for source system EC3150 not present', at the same replicate data source does not find a datasource. At the same time unable to replicate datasource. If you go outside the session and come back, everything works fine.
BI 7.0 system package level is SP16, upgrade to the system was done some time back.
Pls. share your experience in migration 3.5 datasources to BI 7.0 for both Master data and Transaction data.
Did any one experience similar issue like this?

I get the same error with a different object after upgrading a BI Business Content data source from 3.x to 7.0
It tells me "The OLTP source 2LIS_08TRTK for source system RD1CLNT230 not present".
Thx,

Migrating from WebLogic v8.1.3 to v10.3: Datasources and Connection Pools

I took the liberty to migrate my OLD BEA WebLogic v8.1.3 domain (i.e. sample) to Oracle WebLogic v10.3. Everything appears to run smoothly BUT when I try to connect to the Hypersonic Database I had from the OLD environment, I get connection errors (i.e. weblogic.common.ResourceException). I can see from the NEW 10.3 environment that the migration utility creates two (2) datasources (sampleDS and samplePool). However, when clicking through the screens, I do not see how sampleDS refers to the samplePool out of the box from the migration utility. When I start the WebLogic domain with startWebLogic.cmd...here is the code to launch the actual DB instance:
cd hsqldb
start "Sample DB (HSQLDB)" %JAVA_HOME%\bin\java -classpath hsqldb.jar -Xms32m -Xmx128m org.hsqldb.Server -database sampleDB -port 15553 -silent false -trace false
cd ..
This works quite well and launches a window that has the following:
| Sample DB (HSQLDB)
| server.properties not found, using command line or default properties
| Opening database: sampleDB
| server.port =15553
| server.database =sampleDB
| server.silent =false
| HSQLDB server 1.7.1 is running
| Use SHUTDOWN to close normally, Use [CTRL] + [C] to abort abruptly
| Wed Jun 16 10:18:48 EDT 2010 Listening for connections ...
|_________________________________________________________
This is the right screen and confirms my database is up and running and waiting for connections. Somehow, when I migrated from 8.1 to 10.3 something is not configured correctly and my sampleDS is not properly leveraging the samplePool. Can anyone shed any light on this problem?
I have went through most of the posts and can not seem to understand what happens to the DS and Pools during the migration and specifically how do I reconnect the two to ensure that I can connect to the database. The app is up and running fine in WebLogic v10.3 but without the dB connection, I am stuck at the login screen.
Thanks for any help...

I was migrating from a 3gs to the 4s. Big mistake. Have lost contacts and access to music and apps.

I was migrating from a 3gs to the 4s. Having never upgraded the IOS before, I thought that I should do that before handed the phone down to my daughter to replace her broken 3g. Big mistake. Even using Google sync for my contacts, following instruction from the Google webpage (ambiguous: cancel or not when error message is displayed?) the contacts did not sync to gmail. iTunes says it will sync contacts, but doesn't from the phone, only from the few that were in my old Gmail account. The iCloud set up asks for email and a new password- not specifying that you should use your old email and password for your old iTunes account or your phone will be instantly locked out of those apps and tunes stored there. The web info says you can't merge accounts or passwords, so, I bet I have to cancel the new set up and start over with the old password if it will even let me. I've spent 8 hrs reading, syncing, et c., on this! It will be a long time before I casually buy a new phone from them! I wonder how much time it will take to switch from the 3GS to the 4S? I now have a 3GS without contacts, no way to get the data from those files back, and can't get the apps to it or the 4S until Apple support helps fix the double identity problem.
Considering that I had verbal instructions from the Apple store prior to the IOS upgrade, reviewed all the details on line, I think this process is woefully lacking in clarity and transparency. The local ATT branch offered nothing except backing up to avoid loss of contacts if both phones were taken to the store, but not any help with the IOS or iTunes content. Cable internet for the 3GS backup and IOS 5 upgrade seemed to take about 2 hours. At least calender, notes, etc. were done correctly and 2500 picture and videos were not removed.

After the last post,I went to the local ATT for some feedback. The manager there, Stephen, was helpful and spent a long time, even after i had gotten the abbreviated list of contacts I had constructed from the 3GS to the 4S by an iTunes sync with the correct options selected. This however, would not sync notes. I took screen pix of my many stock symbols for future reference, and got them to transfer with Bump (as photos, in case I want to refresh my memory on some of the symbols added previously). I emailed myself copies of 28 notes i did not want to lose, because the iCloud back up would not initially work. After what seemed like years, I finally was able to get it working, following repeated refusal to Merge because of "not enough space available" @5GB even though everything was turned off except contacts and calendar.
My old phone is finally backed up to the cloud after I turned off location service on new phone, and a bunch of apps and photo data showed up for the first time, as icons to be turned off on the old phone in the Manage Storage window. It said it was going to back up 8 GB of photos when the photo backup had been turned off on the prior screen. (The screws are loose, and the worm has turned on this software at Apple.)
Backup for notes, a few contacts, and calendar, over high speed wifi, took 25 minutes to complete without photos.
I have never seen anything this troublesome in the Apple OS!
You will need to set your own Apple ID and a .me email ID if you want to use the cloud. My recommendation and that of the store manager for the first time is don't back up any photos, let it erase the photo stream if it wants to. The camera roll should be ok.
Backing up to the iCloud removed all my stocks from the old phone! It wasn't supposed to. Be sure to select leave data on phone at every opportunity- even so, there they went. It did not remove contacts or calendar when backing up, though the IOS 5 upgrade had lost my years of contacts since I had not specified that they should be saved when I hit the simple sync in iTunes the first time and since Googlesync failed to connect properly for me over wifi as noted above.
All in all it appears nothing is going to clone your phone or preserve all the data through a IOS 4.x to 5 migration, though I did not do it right the first time with iTunes, and complicated matters by starting with a new ID instead of my old iTunes account and password, living in a small town, away from any Apple store, though if you can't be there at an Apple store with both phones in hand, they probably can't help much unless they walk you through each option in iTunes and you are very attentive. The store genius I saw did not do this, though I had yet to order the phone at that point.
Good Luck!

Enhance COPA datasource

I need to enhance a COPA datasource but I cannot add fields in COPA structure as it is already full. So Need to write a code to populate the fields. We require partner function fields from VBPA table and populate the data.
I cannot create generic delta based on VBPA as this does not contain timestamp field.
When writing the code and populate the data, Will this fetch Delta data for COPA datasource? for ex. if someone changes the partner function for sales order will that be captured as a delta? If not then please suggest what should be the approach for above.
Regards,
Girish

Hi,
Look up will work. it will be another way for you.
but delta on partner function will won't work thru LO data sources.
LO data sources are standard one and will work on their own delta function.
You need to understand more functionally about partner function.
this won't be the unique for one record. same function will may have multiple records.
in such cases we don't have any option to make partner function as delta relevant field thru custom data source.
Another work around:
Create one custom data source on table VBPA with less fields along with partner function.
load custom data source data to bw DSO(xyz).
create multiprovider on custom DSO(xyz) and copa cube.
At data source - you need to run daily full load only(info pack and dtp)
Thanks

Regarding Migration from Weblogic 10.3.0 to 10.3.3

We have configured a domain in our weblogic 10.3.0 installation. With in this domain A J2EE application has been deployed with datasources configuration, JAAS configuration.
Is it possible to migrate to Weblogic 10.3.3 without making any changes in our existing application configuration and domain setup?
If yes can any one please tell us what is the procedure?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
first of all could you please clarify the need for migration from BO XI 3.0 to 3.1, as you can simply apply SP1 on top of 3.0 and it becomes 3.1.
if you have considered this and still needs to migrate, following are the 3 posible options.
1. Live-Live Migration - Import Wizard is the tool
2. BIAR - Live Migration - Import Wizard is the tool
Please reffer the Import Wizrd User guide for the option 1 and 2 link provided in the above thread.
Also the 3rd option is to perform the Databse and Filesystem copy, find the step below.
Launch CCM from the Destination System
Copy all of the file store from your Source implementation to the file store folder for your Destination implementation
Stop SIA - right click and select properties - Go to the Configuration tab - Click on the button to specify the data source -
Select "Copy Data from another Data Source". This will copy the data from your source to the Destination.
Regards,
Ramu.

Migration from WLI2.0 to WLI2.1 - problems and solutions

We have experienced a number of issues when migrating from WLI2.0 (no service packs)
to WLI2.1 - We are only using the WLPI (BPM) part of WLI. We decided to publish
these issues in case they can be of help to others.
Problems:
1. The documentation (http://edocs.bea.com/wlintegration/v2_1/migrate/4zubemig.htm#998197)
says the migration process works from WLPI 1.2.1 and from WLI 2.0 (SP2, 3, 4).
What about WLI2.0 with no service packs - I don't see why BEA should have left
out migration from that platform. We decided to follow the process and see what
happened.
2. There is no indication in the documentation of how to run the GUI based migration
tools on Unix, only for Windows so we had to follow the manual route.
3. The Manual process refers (http://edocs.bea.com/wlintegration/v2_1/migrate/4zubemig.htm#999969)
to the DB variable setting scripts. It then says to run "migratedb.sh". None of
these files have extensions ".sh" - the files that were installed have no extension.
Obviously that did not stop us running them but the documentation needs correcting.
4. The migratedb scripts calls "WLI_HOME/setenv.sh" - it is confusing that there
is a second copy of this file in the bin folder called "setenv". Why are there
2 copies. Also I note that the one in bin is executable and the other is not.
All very confusing!!
5. The migratedb script fails to run because we have not previously run setDomain.
This is not documented.
6. Running setDomain on a domain moved from a WLI2.0 installaion fails since it
does not contain the expected folders. That basically means you cannot migrate
such a domain. We carried on with the process using the bpmdomain so that we could
at least migrate our database automatically.
7. Having run setDomain, we tried migratedb again but it failed because we had
not run switchdb. Again, this is not documented. We ran switchdb successfully.
8. Now running migratedb creates a file called "migrate.sh". Unfortunately the
script migratedb then attempts to run a file called "migrate". This is evidence
that no-one has ever tested this script at BEA and we are very disconcerted by
this fact!! We renamed the script and ran migratedb again - this time it ran the
migrate script.
9. This still fails with the following errors (when calling migrateCommonRep)
     -v (No such file or directory)
     null
     java.lang.NullPointerException
     at java.lang.Class.forName0(Native Method)
     at java.lang.Class.forName(Class.java:120)
     at com.bea.eci.migration.Migrate.getConnection(Migrate.java:207)
     at com.bea.eci.migration.Migrate.main(Migrate.java:73)
     java.lang.NullPointerException
     at com.bea.eci.migration.Migrate.main(Migrate.java:192)
10. It also fails because it cannot find "sqlplus" - a fatal problem - we do not
have sqlplus installed on the same machine as WLI and yet again this requirement
is not documented. At this point we gave up trying to run the migrate script as
there seemed to be no route forward.
The process we took to move from WLI2.0 (WLPI only) was as follows:
a. Since we had done no changes to filerealm.properties we simply copied the one
fron bpmdomain into our own domain.
b. We have been unable to run the step to migrate the common repository (see note
9). If this is referring to the XML repository then that should not be a problem
to us as we have not used it.
c. We moved the "migrate/BPM_20SP3-21.sql" script to an NT machine and ran that
script on our database. This seems to have successfully updated the database.
Lastly, having completed the migration process we tried to run the server but
it fails. This is because the startWeblogic script fails to call checkdomain properly.
We modified the line to become:
     ". $WLI_HOME/bin/checkdomain"     # the '.' was missing
Does anyone else have any experiences with this that would help us all?

Pete,
Please post this to the weblogic.integration.interest and weblogic.integration.developer newsgroups?

Problem in mapping after migration from 3.x to 7.x infosource

HI Experts,
I have a problem while mapping the data source 2lis_03_bf to info cube 0ic_cs01.
we have a flow like this now after migration done.
Datasource->transfer rules->infosource->transformation->info cube
Now we dont require infosource and its respetive transformation, we are going to map directly from data source to info cube.but we have routines available in info cube related transformation.i.e. coming from infosource to info cube .
I would like to create a new transformation directly from Datasource to info cube but all the source fields are not available in target cube. How to map them.do i have to map all the target fields or i have to map according to the transfer rules target fields. what is the funda to make a transformation and mapping the source and target fields.
Could anyone please through some light here..

Hi Sunil & Sravan,
THanks for ur quick reply.As you said click on transfer rules and create transformation.As i can see in my system i have a transformation from data source to infosource .i.e. starting with RSDS_ and then another transformation from info source to info cube.i.e. starting with TRCS_ . what i did was created a transformation by right click on info cube and by giving data source name as 2LIS_03_BF .this is a manual transformation i am mapping manually.Is this a correct way? Please tell me how to do it.
as i have to do this immediately.
Thanks in advance

Migration from 3.5.1 to 9.3.0

Hi,
I am also trying to migrate from 3.5.1 to 9.30 and getting an error unsuceesful log on.
I have instralled 3.5.1 on a different machine Windows server 2003 and Oracle 9i.
I ahve installed 9.3.0 on other machine and Oracle 10G.
While creating the application on 3.5.1 it has taken the user ge_adm ( which is also my windows NT login).
Now when i am trying to create user on 3.5.1, it comes with error invalid user name. Its not taking admin as user id also.
Now I am trying these steps for migration:
1. Copy the HspJSHome.properties file that you backed up before installing Planning 9.3.0.1
to the same folder that contains the new PlanningSystemDB.properties file. The location is
based on the application server being used.
2.Run the PropFileMig utility (PropFileMig.cmd) located in <drive letter>:
\Hyperion\Planning\Utils
Launch the Hyperion Configuration Utility. Under Planning, perform the Edit Datasource
task for each application you want to upgrade.
4. Restart the Planning application server and log on to Planning using this URL: http://
<hostname>:8300/HyperionPlanning/LogOn.jsp.
these 4 steps ran succesfully. However I have started facing problem from 5th step onwards.
Select the application you want to migrate from the drop-down list of applications. A
message is displayed that the application version needs to be migrated.
6. Enter your username and password again and select the application. Then click Migrate
(note that the LogOn button changed to Migrate). The application is migrated to the 9.3.0.1
release and you are logged on.
No migration button is there and I am not able to login in to the migrated application.
Please let me know what should I do?
Need urgent help.
Any help would be highly appreciated.
Thanks and Regards,
Pankaj Mehta.

Hi,
The steps I usually take are (I am basing this on version 9.3.1 though but I dont think it differs that much) :-
Create a fresh planning application on version 9.3.0 make sure the admin is the same name as your old 3.5.1 planning app
Go into the oracle tables for the planning app and look at table HSP_USERS, store the SID value against user 50001
Go into the oracle planning system tables and HSPSYS_APPLICATION, clear out the version field for the application in question.
Stop Planning
Drop your 9.3.0 Planning App schema and Copy your old 3.5.1 planning oracle schema into the same locatiion
Go into the HSP_USERS table and update the SID for user id 50001
Start planning
Go to planning web and you should see your application when you try and log in it should take you to a migrate screen.
Hope this is a start.
Cheers
John

Migrating from Windows Photoshop Elements to iPhoto '08

I recently got a Mac and I'm looking into migrating from Windows Photoshop Elements 6.0 to iPhoto 7 ('08).
I've seached this forum, but I didn't find any detailed tips, tricks and recommendations on how to do the migration. I know about the PE (Photoshop Elements) command to write keyword information into the files (something like File->write tags to file). Someone (IIRC Barbara B.) also mentioned something about scripts to make the transition smoother, although I haven't seen any detailed information on what and where these scripts are. Basically, I'd like to hear from users who have migrated from Windows Photoshop Elements. I have thousands of pictures and prior planning can save me lots of time.
Some questions:
1. Photoshop Elements has a tagging feature, which is similar to iPhoto's keyword feature. Not sure how iPhoto will process the keywords. Do I just import the pictures into iPhoto and iPhoto will recognize the keywords? Should I create the keywords in iPhoto ahead of time prior to import (using names that exactly match Photoshop tag names) ?
2. In PE, I've assigned captions to pictures. Can iPhoto read the captions and treat them as titles or descriptions?
3. In PE, I've assigned ratings to pictures. Can iPhoto read them, or do I need to manually redo the ratings in iPhoto?
4. One PE feature that I will really miss is hierarchical tags (e.g. Family->Kid's name). (Aside: everyone, please put in a request to Apple to support this feature!!) While I would prefer a native iPhoto feature to support hierarchical tags, I saw that there are 3rd party plugins available. What's the best one in terms of features and long term support/viability? Is it Keyword Manager?
5. Any easy way to translate my PE Album definitions when migrating to iPhoto? I assume I would need to recreate them from scratch based on keywords and optionally ratings?
6. I'm afraid to ask this next question (and I'm sure this is worthy of many separate threads). I'm still grappling with the concept of Events. In my mind, an event is something "monumental", and I've used Albums in PE for these "monumenal" events. A large percentage of my pictures don't really fit into a "monumental event" categary. Instead, they are pictures that were taken in a random/candid manner. Or, I might have pictures that are truly events, but maybe only 1 or 2 pictures would fit into an event. If I started using iPhoto from the very beginning, it may be easier to deal with the concept of events. However, I already have thousands of pictures. I'm wary of importing all my pictures in one shot (rather than on a per "event" basis), since it may result in hundreds of events, which, IMO, wouldn't provide much organizational value. Anyone have any tips/philosophical opinions on how to deal with events when thousands of pictures need to be imported? Someone (T.D.?) mentioned they organize by year for older pictures. Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Can't answer all your questions, but I'll have a go at a couple.
1. Photoshop Elements has a tagging feature, which is similar to iPhoto's keyword feature. Not sure how iPhoto will process the keywords. Do I just import the pictures into iPhoto and iPhoto will recognize the keywords? Should I create the keywords in iPhoto ahead of time prior to import (using names that exactly match Photoshop tag names) ?
If you write the tags to the file then iPhoto will recognise them as part of the IPTC data. There is no way to create tags in advance.
2. In PE, I've assigned captions to pictures. Can iPhoto read the captions and treat them as titles or descriptions?
Can Elements write these to the IPTC data? If so, iPhoto should read them. A little trial will confirm.
3. In PE, I've assigned ratings to pictures. Can iPhoto read them, or do I need to manually redo the ratings in iPhoto?
No, the IPTC data does not recognise ratings.
4. One PE feature that I will really miss is hierarchical tags (e.g. Family->Kid's name). (Aside: everyone, please put in a request to Apple to support this feature!!) While I would prefer a native iPhoto feature to support hierarchical tags, I saw that there are 3rd party plugins available. What's the best one in terms of features and long term support/viability? Is it Keyword Manager?
Keyword Manager is the way to do this.
5. Any easy way to translate my PE Album definitions when migrating to iPhoto? I assume I would need to recreate them from scratch based on keywords and optionally ratings?
What do you mean by "album definitions"?
About Events:
Don't get hung up on a word. They could have as easily called them 'trousers' and it would make almost as much sense
An 'Event' is an import that is automatically divided into folders depending on the criteria you set in the iPhoto Preferences.
Events in the iPhoto Window correspond exactly with the Folders in the Originals Folder in the iPhoto Library package file (Right click on it in the Pictures Folder -> Show Package Contents).
You can move photos between Events, you can rename Events, edit them, create them, as long as you do it via the iPhoto Window. Check out the Info Pane (wee 'i', lower left) the name and date fields are editable. Edit a Event Name using the Info Pane, the Event Folder in iPhoto Library/Originals will also have the new name.
So, really an Event is a Folder.
For my money, Events are a very limited way of organising photos. They are strictly date and time based. As time goes by I consolidate them - Spring 06, Summer 07, America 08 (I do this as we have three cameras feeding the Library).
I organise using Albums, Smart Albums and Keywords.
Albums (Smart or otherwise) are virtual entities. Unlike Events, they reference files on the HD, so a pic can be in 1,10 or 100 Albums with no extra disk space used. (To have a pic in two events requires two copies of the files.) They are infinitely flexible and offer a much richer set of possibilities.
How have you your photos organised currently? In folders? On what basis? If you can explain how that works we may be able to help you recreate this system in iPhoto.

Migration from Access to Oracle 10g (Problem with migration wizard)

Hi
I have an access database which I want to migrate to Oracle DB.
I have created 2 connections.
1. Access connection with the source database
2. Oracle connection.
I have associated the oracle connection to the repository.
When I go through 'MIGRATION WIZARD' process. I am not able to view the source database file while capturing. Tried it several times.
Need a help in this
Regards,
Arjun

Arjun,
you cannot do an online migration with MS Access as you can do with other foreign datasources. You can only do an offline migration.
The first step that you need to do is to call the Microsoft Access Exporter. Click on Tools - Migration - Microsoft Access Exporter and chose the exporter of the MS Access version that you are using.
The exporter creates an xml file for you. After the exporter has finished you can do the migration, click on Tools - Migration - Migrate, but in Step 4 please select "Offline", and then you can select the xml file that the exporter has created. The following steps in the Migration assistant are then doing the migration for you.
You might also want to read the chapter "Before Migrating From Microsoft Access" in the online help of SQL Developer.

How to add new column to COPA datasource?

Dear all,
It seems we have to delete the COPA datasource and regenerate it when we need add new column, if so,we should regenerate the initialIzation for the delta.
Beacause only the new delta data need have value for new column,so I do not want to reextract the historical data,do you have any solution?
Best regards
Simon

Hi Simon
You are correct, COPA DS need to be regenerated.
Initialize without Data Transfer might help you. But was thinking how do you manage the 'lost' delta in between the processes?
I m not sure about your flows i.e how data moves from PSA to cube but I think at least you should
Initialize the delta for the current fiscal year ( with Data Transfer) and then continue with delta.
Which type of COPA you are using? Account based or Cost Based? For Acc Based delta initialization starts from summarization level , so you also need to fill up summarization level at least for the current year.

Selection of 0CURTYPE in a copa datasource

Hi everybody,
I'm being asked to give a hand to a colleague of mine....
he has a problem with the copa datasource...Unfortunately
i've always worked on extraction from modules sd and mm...
and I don't know how copa exctraction works... I've found
a lot of documents... read some of them... but now I need
your help...
his problem is related to 0CURTYPE...the requirement is
to exctract only the company code values..I thought then that
if the 0CURTYPE was available as selection field in the
infopackage... the problem would be easily solved.... but
at the moment it is not a selection field and
moreover to make it a selection field it would mean recreate
the datasource and apply the oss note 390146. I'm told that
we're not allowed to recreate the datasource... so I was wondering
now if I could make this selection in R3..adding some code in the
CMOD...something like...
case...
when 'COPA'
delete data_package where CURTYPE NE '10'....
or something like that....
will the "delete data_package" work here?...have you got
any other idea?
they would filter the data directly in the R3 environment...
thank you very much for your help
Marco

Pleaseee Help meeee!
