DB2 Version 8 to Flat Files using ODI

Hi,
We are trying to load data from DB2 V8 to flat files using ODI.
Can anybody help me in this to configure server in Topology.
Thanks
Ashwini

Hi,
How are you? Let me try contribute a little...
A)
1) The OS isn't a problem, once you link it at topology will be OK.
2) If you have a fix name just create a datastore to it, if not, there are techniques to got dynamic file names
3) When you say "*.dat, *.cvs" maybe you refer to the internal format of file (record separator, decimal point, etc) all of this is configurable on datastore that represents the file at ODI.
B) Yes, the only requisite is to have the write and read rights.
C) The most simple way is create a refresh variable that get the data in any format you wish..
Does it make any sense to you?

I am trying to extract metadata from essbase into a flat file using ODI.

I have 2 questions in this regard :
Some of the account members storage property is missing in the extract.the reason which i suspect is due to the parent child sorting that did not happen while extracting.How do i do this.I do not see this option when i select IKM hyperion Essbase Metadata to SQL....
I have many account members that have more than one UDA's upto 5 UDA's.But in my extrcat only one UDA appears.How do i incorporate all the UDA's in a single column,sperated by a comma,the extract file as such is semicolon seperated,mainly because of this reason and some alias descriptions have comma's in the source system
ODi is extracting metadata in a descending order.How do i change it to sort records in parent child order
Thanks,
Lingaraj

Hi,
There was an issue with early versions of the KM around the storage property, this has since been resolved. I recommend upgrading to the latest release of ODI or have a look through the patches.

How to export data from DB to flat file with ODI?

we want to export DB2 tables to flat files.
Who can tell me how to do it with ODI?
Please give me a simple example or steps.
Thank you.

There are two ways
Either use IKM Sql to File Append
(or)
OdiSqlUnload
For OdiSqlUnload you can use this technique to provide the connection parameters - http://odiexperts.com/?p=1985

Error when exporting to flat file in ODI 11g

This works ok in ODI 10g. I'm using IKM SQL to File Append on Windows Server 2008 R2
Getting the following error when exporting to a flat file in ODI 11g: ODI-40406: Bytes are too big for array
I've seen a couple of threads like this on the forum, but I've never seen an answer to the problem.

Problem is with the difference in behaviour for the IKM SQL to File Append KM between 10g and 11g.
Our 10g target file datastore had a mixture of fixed string and numeric columns. Mapping from the source to target was simple one to one column mapping. It generated the desired fixed format flat file; numerics were right adjusted with embedded decimal point and leading spaces. Each numeric column in the generated flat file occupied the exact space allocated to it in the layout. This gave the desired results, even though documentation for the 10g IKM states that all columns in the target must be string.
When we converted to 11g and tried to run this interface, it generated an error on the "numeric" columns because it was wrapping them in quotation marks. The result column was being treated as string, and it was larger than the defined target once it acquired those quotation marks.
In order to get 11g to work, I had to change all the numeric columns in the target data store to fixedstring 30. I then had to change the mapping for these numeric columns to convert them to right adjusted character strings (i.e. RIGHT(SPACE(30) + RTRIM(MyNumericColumn),30).
Now it works.

Extracting data from Essbase & loading into flat file through ODI

Hi,
I want to extract data from Essbase and load it into a flat file through ODI(for extraction from essbase I'm using a report script) and I’m using these KM’s:- LKM Hyperion Essbase data to SQL,IKM SQL to FILE Append & for reversing I’m using RKM Hyperion Essbase.All the mappings have been done and the interface has been made. But when I’m executing the interface it is throwing the error below:-

It seems that you are trying to use the file as your staging areas. Hyperion LKM extracts essbase data into a DB staging area which can then be used by your file IKM to load it into file.
You need to use a RDBMS for your staging area.

Delete data from a flat file using PL/SQL -- Please help.. urgent

Hi All,
We are writing data to a flat file using Text_IO.Put_Line command. We want to delete data / record from that file after data is written onto it.
Please let us know if this is possible.
Thanks in advance.
Vaishali

There's nothing in UTL_FILE to do this, so your options are either to write a Java stored procedure to do it or to use whatever mechanism the host operating system supports for editing files.
Alternatively, you could write a PL/SQL procedure to read each line in from the file and then write them out to a second file, discarding the line you don't want along the way.

How to Create a Flat File using FTP/File Adapter

Can any body done workaround on creating the Flat file using FTP/File Adapter?.
I need to create a simple FlatFile either using of delimiter/Fixed length. using the above said adapters we can create XML file, i tried concatinating all the values into a single String and writing into a file, but it does not have proper structure
Can any body help me out on this..
Thanks
Ram

You can create a text schema while creating a File Adapter. If schema is specified for File Adapter, it takes care of converting XML into fixed length or delimited format.
Thanks,

Hello All,
I created a scenario IDOC to Flat File using Integration Process and one without IntegrationProcess. I am able to execute the one without Integration Process easily.
However when I send the IDOC from SAP then the Integration Process scenario just does not work.
I Checked SXMB_MONI There is no entry for the Integration Process.I can see entry for other without Integration Process.
SXI_CACHE : I can see my Integration Process active
SWEQADM : I have activated the Event Queue and Background job
SWF_XI_ADM_BPE : ALL BPE is showing green status.
All syntax check on IP are fine.
There is no Basis Help for me so there could be some additional basis steps which need to be configured. Has anyone faced such an issue with Integration Process?
Regards
Prashanta

Hope this might help you. when u configure an IDoc as Sender with BPM this is how you proceed.
1. let us split the scenario into two.
a. Sender to BPM ( Integration Process).
b. BPM to Receiver.
2. First let us configure the first Sender to BPM.
a. Sender Agreement( Not required ).
b. Receiver Agreement( NOT Required).
c. Receiver Determination( Sender Service, Outbound Interface, Receiver Service(Integration Process).
d. Interface Determination( Inbound Interface(Sender Abstract Interface), Message Mapping(NOT Required if your using transformation stepin Integration Process)).
3. Now let us configure the Second BPM to Receiver.
a. Sender Agreement( NOT Required)
b. Receiver Agreement( Sender Service(Integration process), Receiver Abstarct Interface,Receiver service, Inbound Interface).
c. Receiver Determination( Sender Service(Integration Process), Receiver Abstarct Interface,Receiver Service).
d. Interface Determination( Inbound Interface, Message Mapping(NOT Required)).
So Finally we have One Receiver Agreement, Two Receiver Determinations, Two Interface Determinations.
Please let me know if you have any more queries.

Table to File using ODI Procedure

Pls help me ...describing what are the steps in ODI need for loading a RDBMS table to File using ODI Procedure....not using Interface and OdiSqlUnload
Thanks in Advance

You can use Java Beanshell or Jython to load data in to a file. The only thing is that you need to create a connection so that you can run the select query and get the resultset. Now write it using your rest code.
If i would have been in your situtation i would prefer Java Beanshell ( not good in jython ;) . Dev can help you on this.). The readymade query is already here

How to execute .sql file using ODI

Hi All,
I need to execute .sql file using ODI.
I tried @{path}{file} command in ODI procedure selecting oracle technology.but it is failing.
Do any one have any other idea to execute .sql file.
Thanks in advance

Ohk...I think you can try creating batch file(.bat) if its Windows & call that from ODIOSCommand.
The bat file should contain scripts which call .sql file using sqlplus & there you can use @{path}{file} format.
See if this helps.

Processing flat file within ODI

Friends,
I need to read a flat file consisting of 'detail or main record' and 'trailier Record
1) Detail Record consist of each transaction details including amount etc.
2) Trailer Record consist of total value on detail records ( number of records and total amount)
How can I verify the total amount in trailer against sum of all detail records?
Thanks
KS

hehehehe
Was a "bad way" to say "execute the calculations".
An way to do it is:
1) create a ODI variable
2) at refresh tab put something like
select t.col_trailier_sum_amount - sum(d.col_amount)
from loaded_tabledetail d, loaded_table_trailier t
where d.record_type = 'detail' and t.record_type = 'trailer"
group by t.col_trailier_sum_amount
* I'm using 2 tables at this example but is the same with just one...
3) create a package and drag and drop:
a) the interface that load the temp table
b) the variable in Refresh mode
c) the variable in evaluate mode ( set the evaluate operator to "=" and value to "0")
d) choose the OK (true) and KO (false) path that you need to each case
Does it make sense to you?

Filename for flat file using J2EE FILE FTP Receiver adapter

Hi there,
I am struggling to do the following:
I have a J2EE File receiver that sends a file with a specific name to a FTP destination. I define the target filename in my graphical mapping using certain criteria and a incremental number. In my adapter I use variable substitution to select that value in the payload as the filename. Up to this point everything works fine.
The problem is that I convert the payload to a flat structure using xslt before writing it out and because of that the adapter cannot find my value as defined in the variable I use for the name.
Now, obviously if I move the xslt module after the CallAdapter module, the file won't be converted to a flat structure.
Can anyone give me advice on how I can do the flat conversion and the specific filename from the payload?
Thanks in advance,
Johan

Hi,
Instead of using variable substitution, use adapter specific identifiers to set the file name in mapping.
