Deploying mappings by changing Source/production system using OMB Scripting

Question

Hi Mark,
I am now trying to deploy my mappings from DEVELOPMENT environment to PRODUCTION environment.
Now my mappings are point to DEVELOPMENT Source System and DEVELOPMENT target system. When I deploy these mappings should point to PRODUCTION Source System and PRODUCTION target System.
I could get some help from the forum for deploying the mappings point to PRODUCTION target system, but I couldnt find any help how to change the Source System Location. I have exported all my mappings (.xml files) in the C:\OWBDeploy directory.
How do we register and unregister a location using OMB Scripting?
How to write a batch deployment action without using deployment manager?
Provide a example to deploy the mappings using OMB script
for both source and target systems locations.
I am using Oracle 9.2, OWB 9.2.0.2.8, OWF 2.6 and OMB 9.2.0.2.8.
Regards,
Shreedhar

Below script will deploy all the mappings in a module. It can be used with filter condition like mappings which start with ‘M_D’ or ‘M_F’ also. Above script will deploy mappings very effectively comparing with GUI. Frequent problem in OWB mapping execution ‘ TASK not found’ error will not occur, if we deploy the mappings using above scripts.
Steps to Deploy All Mappings in a Module
Start the OMB PLUS from Command Prompt or Start Menu
Change the context to the respective Project
Connect to Design Repository
Register the Location Properties if the deployment is happening first time in the target schema.
Change the context to the respective Module
Use foreach and OWBCREATE command to create a Deployment Plan for Droping if any previous deployment for all mappings
Use foreach and OWBCREATE command to create a Deployment Plan for Newly Deploying the Mapping
Use foreach and OWBDEPLOY command to run the Drop Deployment Plan
Commit
Use for each and OWBDEPLOY command to run the Create Deployment Plan
Example
OMBCONNECT mis_owb904_rep/[email protected]:1521:ulyut03s
OMBCC '/IGMS_MIS_GEMNCAP_FOC'
OMBCONNECT RUNTIME 'ST_DWH_RUNTIME_FOC' USE PASSWORD ‘MIS_RT_OWNER’
OMBREGISTER LOCATION 'ST_LOC_CURRENTMISTARGET_FOC' SET PROPERTIES (Host, Port, Service, Schema, Password) \
VALUES ('10.202.148.176', 1521, 'ULYUT01M','MIS_OWNER', 'MANAGER')
OMBCC '/IGMS_MIS_GEMNCAP_FOC/CURRENTMISTARGET'
foreach mappingname [OMBLIST MAPPINGS] {
OMBCREATE TRANSIENT DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN '$mappingname.DROP' ADD ACTION '$mappingname.DROP' \
SET PROPERTIES (OPERATION) VALUES ('DROP') SET REFERENCE MAPPING \
'/IGMS_MIS_GEMNCAP_FOC/CURRENTMISTARGET/$mappingname';}
foreach mappingname [OMBLIST MAPPINGS] {
OMBDEPLOY DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN '$mappingname.DROP'
OMBCOMMIT;}
foreach mappingname [OMBLIST MAPPINGS] {
OMBCREATE TRANSIENT DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN '$mappingname.CREATE' ADD ACTION '$mappingname.CREATE' \
SET PROPERTIES (OPERATION) VALUES ('CREATE') SET REFERENCE MAPPING \
'/IGMS_MIS_GEMNCAP_FOC/CURRENTMISTARGET/$mappingname';}
foreach mappingname [OMBLIST MAPPINGS] {
OMBDEPLOY DEPLOYMENT_ACTION_PLAN '$mappingname.CREATE'
OMBCOMMIT;}
