Dynamically changing Universe Connection

We are in the process of implementing CM (Configuration Management) process to migrate the code from Development to QA to Production.
Currently we are taking the code from Development using Import Wizard and creating a BIAR file, move that BIAR file to QA server and using "InstallEntSdkWrapper.jar" we are importing into QA.
Sameway, when we want to migrate the Universe, Reports to Production, we are opening the universe using Designer, changing the connection to Production, exporting to Development Repository. Creating BIAR file from Development using Import Wizard, move the BIAR file to production server, and use "InstallEntSdkWrapper.jar" to import Universe, Reports to production repository.
Now the CM (Configuration Management) process says, whenever we create a BIAR file for QA deployment, we should check-in to Clear Case, once we test it in QA, and QA approves that there are no defects, we should migrate SAME BIAR file to production, without creating another BIAR
file from Development.
The problem I am facing here is, because of security restrictions, Network Team stopped/closed Ports 6400 thru 6403, that means we can't connect any client tools (i.e Deisgner, Import Wizard) to any
environment other than Development Environment.
I can't use the same BIAR file to deploy into production which was deployed to QA as that BIAR file points to QA Database.
Please let me know how to resolve the issue:
I am looking for a way to change the connection dynamically,
1. Either by using any kind of parameters
2. Change the connection using CMC or any other tool.
Or any other method to use the same BIAR file which was used to deploy in QA, and deploy it in production.
We are on BO XI R2 SP4
It is installed on AIX platform.
Is there any 3rd party tool ?
OR does BO has this option in Businss Objects XI 3.1 ?
Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Check whether if you have drivers pointed to correct Database by creating a valid user to required DB in your local system.

Crystal RAS SDK - Change universe connection details

We currently have a large number of Crystal Reports that have universes as there data sources. I have been trying via the RAS SDK to change the database connection without success.
I can access the table definition and return the relevant propertybags but as soon as I alter these the report it is corrupted - I can correct the corruption by using the Set Data Source option. I need to be able to point the report to the same universe but in a different folder currently the only method we have is to recreate the query against the universe.
We are using Business Objects XIR2 SP4 and Crystal Reports XIR2
Does anybody know if this is possible or have any code snippets to share.

A Crystal Report references Universes by either the Universe SI_CUID or SI_SHORTNAME value, so should not depend on the folder location of the Universe.
As you've seen, trying to modify Universe info in a Crystal Report using RAS will break it.
When you create a Crystal Report against an Universe, the Crystal Report Designer connects to the Web Intelligence Report Server to back the Query Panel. After the query is created, the SQL statement is retrieved from the Web Intelligence Report Server and defined as a SQL Command in the Crystal Report itself.
The RAS, by itself, does not have functionality to connect to the Web Intelligence Report Server - if you try and manually change the connection info using RAS, the most likely outcome is report that just won't run.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda

Dynamic Changing Universe's Measure by openAnalytic for a Map or other Analytic

Error: The measure does not change using $MEASURE_NAME$ in openAnalytic
How is it possible to change universe's variable for a map by using Hyperlink builded in a report. I tried to use the $MEASURE_NAME$ but I did not have any results: remains the measure used for building Map Object.
I tried also to pass $MEASURE_ID$=225 and MEASURE_ID="225" how I see in Map's XML. I send, for helping you, the links that I tried: /boserv25-aspsqy/businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/jsp/openAnalytic.jsp?DocumentName=France_DOTC&RepositoryType=C&RepositoryName=test&DocumentExt=afd&mode=full&sWindow=Same&Refresh=y&$MEASURE_NAME$=Km_realises /businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/jsp/openAnalytic.jsp?DocumentName=France_DOTC&RepositoryType=C&RepositoryName=test&DocumentExt=afd&mode=full&sWindow=Same&Refresh=y&$MEASURE_ID$=266 /businessobjects/enterprise115/desktoplaunch/jsp/openAnalytic.jsp?DocumentName=France_DOTC&RepositoryType=C&RepositoryName=test&DocumentExt=afd&mode=full&sWindow=Same&Refresh=y&MEASURE_ID="266" All these links open and update the map, but these do not change Universe's measure (IS NOT A METRIC), showed in the map. Could someone say me which errors there are in the more correct link or if was some PM XI bug for openAnalytic? In this last case what Could I make? I tried yet the followinng workaround without any succes:
double '&' after openAnalytic?
$MEASURE_NAME$ =Km-realise in last position of the url

Change a universe connection in webi

Hi All
I want to change a connection within webi to point to a diff universe
many thanks

Hi Allen,
This is a limitation of the Query-HTML panle that you cannot change the Universe for a Webi report. This option is not even available in the Interactive Mode in XI R2.
In BO XI 3.0, along with Java Report panel the Interactive Report Panel also offers the functionality to change the Universe. This feature must have been added considering the same need.
Thanks,

Steps to change universe database connection from SQL server to Oracle 10

Hi,
we are moving from sql server to Oracle 10.Please let me know the steps and various parameters I should consider while changing universe database connection from SQL server to Oracle 10.
Following are the steps which I assumed :
1.     create a new Oracle database connection or edit the existing connection to point to Oracle server
2.     Need to check sql for each object, having integrity check for universe will solve the purpose of parsing each object
3.     Exporting the universe after integrity check
4.     Report data testing
Let me know if I miss on any steps.Also what all factors I need to consider while moving to Oracle for eg: what @ custom sql,what @ table names,what @ LOV etc.
Kindly reply

Thanks Abhijeet and Shreyash,
I will follow the steps you have suggested.
Actually I was searching for this on net and got to know that with Oracle database connection,theres lot of stuff needs to take care of in terms of custom sql and LOV and in our case,we have lot of custom sql for each object in the universe so just wanted to confirm.
I will do the changes and let you guys know in case theres any isuue specifically to Oracle.

Automatic way to change the connection for Multiple universes

We recently migrated the BO objects like universes and connections from 3.1 QA to 4.1 Dev.
But now we want to point all our universe connections of 4.1 Dev system to the BW Dev system instead of BW QA.
Is there any automated way of doing it ?

Lumira Universe Connection only works on Local Server

Hi guys,
My SAP Lumira always fails to acquire Universe Connection when I'm using it in my local computer.
When I use Lumira on the SAP BO Server and try a local connection to the Universes I have no problem at all.
I've already opened ports from 6400 to 6420. I also made some tests with the firewall disabled, but nothing changed.
I've included an attachment with the Lumira log message
Thank you all.

Hi,
With reference to Lumira 1.15, the minimal SP we support is BI 4.0 SP6. Please upgrade at least to this. Everything is detailed in the PAM https://websmp107.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700001095842012E

Dynamically change the db and server in execute sql task

Pkg 2: Moves data from B_STG (Staging DB) to B_Det_STG (Staging DB) ---- option1
Pkg 3: Moves data from B_STG (Staging DB) to B_Det (PC DB) ---- option2
This part is duplicating in both the packages
So they want me to merge both of them into in execute sql task and dynamically change between option1 and option2 depending on a pkg level variable.
So, I create a pkg level variable called ExecutionVariable: 'ANALYSIS' or 'LOADING'
If 'ANALYSIS' it needs to do option1 else option2.
So, I ma trying to create a dynamic connection string in execute sql task.
I change the connection property in execute sql task editor dynamically my giving the expression: @[User::ExecutionVariable] == "ANALYSIS"? @[User::STAGINGDBConnectionString] : @[User::PCDBConnectionString]
which evaluates to : Data Source=AW-ETL-D1;Initial Catalog=Staging;Integrated Security=SSPI;Provider=sqloledb
But when I run the sql task, its giving me an error:
ERROR:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
Nonfatal errors occurred while saving the package:
Error at PC_DataLoad: The connection "Data Source=AW-ETL-D1;Initial Catalog=Staging;Integrated Security=SSPI;Provider=sqloledb" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.

Can u please help me.

Hi ,
Don't try to make the "Execute Sql" task as dynamic.
Try to make OLEDB connection Manager as "Dynamic".
Steps:
1. Create OLE DB Connection pointing to any database then set expression to connection string variables like below.
Provider=SQLNCLI10.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Initial Catalog=YourDBname;Data Source=YourServerName.
2. Make Delayed Validation property to "True".
3. Set the created dynamic OLE DB connection to your Execute SQL task.
4. Change the connection string variable accordingly before running the "Execute SQL" task.
Hope it will help you.

Crystal Report Universe Connection

Hello,
I have a Crystal report developed based on Universe as the data source. Say this report is in Dev environment. Suppose I need to promote this report to Test environment to UAT or production then how is it possible?
I have used import wizard using this I am able to move my report from one environment to another. report is successfully moved from source to destination but when I go to refresh the crystal report, an error is thrown (both in Crystal Report designer and Info view) :
"Failed to open the connection.
Details:
Update of the SQL command from the Universe failed. This report cannot be
refreshed unless the SQL command is updated from the Universe."
As such the Dev copy works fine. Please suggest me how to move a report from 1 environment to another.
If I changes connection manually in UAT Database --> Set Database location -->update then same report work fine,
But I have multiple reports I cannot manually edit connection of each report.
Useful details as below.
Crystal Reports 2008 (Service Pack 1)
Business Objects 3.1
View the connection details in report.
Set database location
Expand Universe connection
Properties - It will show server details of connection- user name - universe name- path of universe
Kindly advice.

This is the same as: Migration of Crystal Report
Please do not cross post as this is against the SCN Rules of Engagement.
If this is a critical issue, you should be able to create a phone case - I suspect for you this would be free as you have BI / BO(?). If you are not sure how to, see your admin.
I will be locking this post now. Please continue on the above link.

Visio 2010 Dynamic connectors are connecting to shapes

Hi,
I am new to Visio and I am trying to create group using some shapes. The shapes in the group have connection points but the group itself doesn't have any. I want the dynamic connector to connect to the connection points only when I connect the group to some
other shapes.
When I am using the auto connect option, the dynamic connector is connecting to the shape but not to the connection point. I changed the ShapeFixedCode in the shape sheet to visSLOConnPtsOnly. But it still is connecting to the shapes and not to the connection
points.
Any advice or correction the way I am doing.

when you create a group you are creating a new shape with very few native attributes (no connection points and no custom properties). If you want to connect to the group shape you should use the connection tool to add connection points.

It's not an issue WebLogic can address. The thortech application is independently using
the UCP connection pool product, not WebLogic connection pooling, so Thortech APIs
would be the only way to debug/reconfigure the UCP.

Crystal Reports for Enterprise and universe connections

Hi, I have noticed an issue with Crystal Reports for Enterprise that may give many administrators a headache.
If a BOBJ user has access to a sensitive universe (eg HR or Finance data) to run pre-built WebI reports from (but not create new ones or edit the universe) then they must have been give data-access to that universe's connection object. Security on the universe and folder could prevent them from accessing information from the universe they shouldn't see or editing the reports and creating new ones.
However if the same user is given access to Crystal Reports for Enterprise in order to access other data sources, then the fact that they have data-access to the above universe connection object now creates a security problem.
Crystal for Enterprise allows a user to open a universe connection object as a data-source. If the user opened the connection for the above 'sensitive' universe they could see all the data in the database - avoiding any universe level restrictions in the process.
What is the suggested way around this? There doesn't appear to be granular enough security to prevent users with data access on a connection object also using that object to create new reports in Crystal for Enterprise.
The only way around it I can see is to deny the user access to the sensitive universe output altogether, but this changes the whole business process for the team involved.
thanks
Keith

I have a couple of thoughts:
1. Create a special reporting user in the database that only has access to a set of views that don't include the sensitive information. Then create a universe based on those views which uses a connecting that logs in as that special user. Give the folks who don't have access to the sensitive data access to this connection and universe instead of the universe and connection that include the sensitive data.
2. Since you have BO, you should have a support contract. I would report this as a bug. However, SAP may tell you that it is "working as designed", in which case you could go to IdeaPlace (https://ideas.sap.com/) and add this as a requested enhancement.

AUTHENTICATION MODE setting in universe connection.

Hi All,
I have an issue Related to Universe designer connection. Our system is BOE XI 3.1(Fix pack 1.3),sap integration kit, universe connection is based on sap bw query.
                     Main problem is i created a universe with connection to sap bw query(when creating the connection and there in connection for AUTHENTICATION MODE i set it to (*Use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time).* i am able to create reports using this universe in webintelligence in infoview and as well as rich client. But if our developer uses the same universe and creates Rich client report he is not able to create the report, but he can use infoview and the webintelligence reports are working fine. One more point he is able to use the same universe if the connection is modified by setting Authentication mode to Use specified user name and password then its working fine in Rich client. He is not able to create the universe in his machine setting this authentication mode to Use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time its throwing error unable to connect to sap bw. But if he specifies the authentication mode to Use specified user name and password its working fine. I was able to create the universe with any type of authentication mode on my machine.

Hi SK,
Can you Please make me clear first what is your intend to create the connection (*Use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time) for creating universe.
I have the solution to guide you Guys Please be clear to me what is your intend to created universe connection with (*Use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time) for creating universe.
I am confident there is no need to change the universe connection to (*Use single sign on when refreshing reports at view time)for this simple issue right now.
Please do keep me posted if you need any issues related to BOBJ.
One Suggestion Please never use the word Main problem as a BO GUY.
Nothing is impossible with BOBJ tool .

Universe Connections migration

Hi ,
we are using SAP BW Query as the sourse for the Creation of Universe with connections to DEV system.
please let me know how should we migrate the universe connections from DEV to QA?
or how is that we can point the universe connection from DEV to QA ?
Regards

Hey Jaya,
the only thing i don't understand is how a universe can have more than connection.
>> It is not possible But this feature is avail in BO XI 4.0
I told Connection mat be same but we are in diff systems (Dev/QA/Prod)
the connection to the universe is changed in the parameters if i'm not wrong.
>> Yep
Can let me know the steps where the connection can be changed and pointed to all the systems at the same time.
>> At same time not possible.
Possible if you open all 3 systems(D-Q-P) then change connections in each system.
Hope you understood.
Gracias...!!
