Hello all ,
We are suing the icommand utility but did not find how to:
1) Export a base view
2) Export schedule parameters of a plan.

Fast EXPORT/IMPORT Question

I have a 200+ GB Oracle 9i DB on UNIX, many tables have primary keys/indexes/constraints. Assuming nobody accessing/using the DB, what is the best procedure to speed up export/import? Both of these will happen on the same machine/OS and RDBMS version. No RMAN please. Thanks.

include the following -
direct=y
recordlength=65535
export file on seperate disks to the datafiles.
import -
recordlength=65535
buffer=64M (or higher)
export file on a seperate disk to the datafiles
Not many people use recordlength, definately a quicker way to export/import.

Multiple servers in parallel export/import question

Hello all,
We plan to use parallel export/import using distribution monitor, and want to use several servers in export and also in import.
The export_monitor.cmd.properties has FTP option ftphost, whic is the hostname of the import server, which looks like it will only use 1 application server (AS) from the source system and 1 in the AS in the target system -
- is this true or can we use more AS in both export and import?
- in the export, how to specify the AS to use?
- in the export, how to specify more than 1 AS?
- in the imprt, how to specify more than 1 AS ?
Thanks,
Terry

You can use the Distribution Monitor for that purpose. Check note 855772 - Distribution Monitor

Bundle export/import questions and work arounds

Hello,
I've begun to use bundles to migrate components from our test server to our production server. Bundles are a great feature which i missed the last time i worked with N1SPS a few years back. But i've found a few things that i had to work around.
1. It would be very nice to be able to set version to something like "latest" in the bundle, so i always get the latest version of all components when i do an export.
2. The bundle should be able to export in a certain order, first folder then components, then containers and lastly plans. Today i have to add everything to the bundle in this order or change the XML-file in the jar afterwards. A function to change the order in the bundle would also help.
3. Then the bundle is imported the container reefers to components of version 1.1 for some reason (in this case a directory), but it will import that component to version 1.0? I had to change the version reference in the XML to get this to work.
Any workaround or is it all RFE:s and bugfixes?
Regards
Henrik

Thank you for your fast reply. Is (1) something that could be object for a RFE? I think it's a common work flow to export the latest versions from a development server to a production server.

Portal content Transport Packages Export/Import Question.

Hi,everyone:
I have a problem when Export packages of portal content,the epa-file is correct on the server however become error after download from the server to localhost.

Hi Ree,
As I mentioned in my previous reply it is working perfectly for me. The import is creating the required files in the PCD.
Let me explain how it is done.
Create a TP
Create a folder and add the required files(Workset,pages, iviews etc) to the the folder.
add the folder with all the contents(select 'Add all objects to transport package' from the content menu) to the TP.
Export the TP. give a name of your choice(removing the numbers)
Download it to the local machine using the dowmload link.
the file will be saved as a <i>TPName</i>.epa in your local drive.
in import, select 'client' for Source for Package Files.
brose and select the <i>TPName</i>.epa file.
upload the file, and you can see the contents.
then import it to the new environment. Now the complete folder stucture will be created in the PCD exactly as you created it for the TP.
I hope you are doing like this. It should work
Are yo able to open the downloaded file with WinZip?
cheers

Aperture to Lightroom Export/Import question

For those who have done the Aperture - Lightroom move (for whatever reason), did you use the built-in Aperture to Lightroom importer that I understand is part of of LR5 or did you use a third-party exporter like Aperture Exporter?
What were your reasons for your choice? My Aperture library is around 68,000 photos, but only around 3,000 show up when I check as "adjusted", so my main concern is trying to maintain some semblance of my folder structure and things like keywords, ratings, etc.
Thanks. Steve

I tried the plug-in (got a trial version of LR5) and after making sure that my entire Aperture Library was referenced, started it - and made sure to tell it to leave the files where they were! To my dismay (1) a lot of photos that I would have expected to be imported came back with errors - even though the ORF Olympus RAW file was a supported camera and more importantly (2) a lot of my photos that were in particular folders, now found themselves in folders based upon the date the photo was either taken or imported into Aperture. Now I read about this - but it is only supposed to happen if you had a managed library and then LR would move the image files into folders based upon dates.
My library had about 68,000 images and after about 6 hours it was up to 30% or so, so I just clicked on DONE to see how it was handling my folder structure.
I am now trying with an application called Aperture Exporter (they have a trial version, but it has limitations on how many photos it will import) and it seems to be handling the export much better. It is keeping my folder structure intact, keeping my metadata (mainly keywords) and any photo that had adjustments in Aperture applied it gives you the option of exporting the original RAW/JPEG file along with a copy of the adjusted one - either as a JPEG or TIFF. Only "issue" would be that you have to have enough hard drive space to duplicate - at least initially - your entire photo library. Don't see an issue to do the export one folder or project at a time (at least not in the demo version).

11gR2 to 10g Export/Import

Hello,
Does exporting from Oracle 11gR2 and importing to Oracle 10g work?
Thank you!

Alex,
this forum deals with migrations from foreign databases to Oracle. Your export/import question should be better posted in this forum:

Export-Import and Naming convention question

All,
Newbie here. Have a question related to the naming convention for SAP R/3 system and XI manual export/import process. We are currently in the development environment where our R/3 systems are named as D55CLNT400, D56CLNT300 etc (first 3 characters are the system id, and last 3 are the client number.) This is per the XI best practices convention.
The question i have is - if we name the technical system as above - and export the configuration objects from the Dev to Test environment - where the R/3 systems are named as T55CLNT400, T56CLNT300 (similar naming structure). Does it mean that we need to manually change almost all of the items in the Test environment on the configuration side (like business sytem name, interface determination, receiver determination etc)
Is this the correct way or are we missing something??? I would have preferred a way - where we needed to only update the communication channel parameters.
Thanks.

In the SLD, create three Business System Groups: DEV, QAS and PRD.
In each of these groups, you must have the relevant application servers (in your case, R/3s) and one integration server (XI).
Then, for each Business System in Group DEV, define a transport target in QAS group.
In your case, the transport landscape should be like this:
D55CLNT400 -> T55CLNT400
D56CLNT300 -> T56CLNT300
XI_DEV -> XI_QAS
Do the same for the QAS group (defining transport targets in PRD group). Observe that you need to have the same number of Business Systems in each group for this to work properly.
Now, when you transport your configuration objects from XI_DEV to XI_QAS, all the Business Systems in DEV landscape will be replaced for the equivalent ones in QAS landscape.

Newbie export and import question

Here's the next part. I have a system with roughly 3+ billion records.
My design is to convert the data in the company's db to ours. The db is still in production so my thinking was to export a day's worth of data using Oracle's exprt functionality. Export takes parameters so I can give it psuedo code like export... where date = yyyy/mm/dd.
On the oracle export faq it says it may not work well with large data sets. On daily average could Oracle export 3M records and import it into another table?
It's on this table I'd put the sequence - from thread Sequence question, need to prefix the sequence with a 4 digit incrementing
Thanks

Sounds like the worst possible solution but then you provided no information as to version numbers, latency, number of tables, transaction size, partitioning, or number of tablespaces.
Assuming a currently supported version of the product why not?
1. Transportable tablespaces
2. Streams
3. DataPump
4. External tables
Export/Import is deprecated technology. It should be the option of last resort.

Importing/Exporting + syncing Questions

Hi there,
just a question with regards to Importing/Exporting + syncing .
First of all, is it possble to sync Yahoo Calendar with iCal, or is there a cool widget/tool that does so in real time?
Second, I currently have a Mac at work running 10.2.8 and would like to somehow sync to my Mac at home running 10.4.8 without exporting/importing from media devices. The Mac at work is always online running through cable connection to outside world... My Mac at home is connected to a switch and than through adsl modem to outside world... What is the best way to connect the two through the Sharing setup in System Preferences
thanks

I'm interested in the same sort of thing. i have a Desktop at home and a laptop on the road. Usually with other files and apps, I just copy the files to my lap top before I leave, but with iCal, I do not know where the 'file' is...?

Question Pool export / Import problems

Hi All!
There has been very short time between the Captivate releases
but I'm very happy about all the new features. Still I feel like
Captivate 3 is more like a beta release because of several annoying
problems. Perhaps it's just me?
I'm starting a blank project and importing a preferences file
for my projects. This pref. file have, among other prefs, buttons
and review text changed. When importing my questions from another
pool/file these settings are ignored. Can anyone explain why? I'm
also experiencing "apply to all" feature in the "properties" window
only randomly making my changes to include all slides and not just
the one I make the changes on. What I'm I missing? I've set the
"settings" right and like I said it works sometimes as expected.
Please help anyone :)
Thanks

Good day, Heffalompen
While I won't be able to provide any of the technical reasons
why things work as they do (or don't
) I would think that for the question pool imports,
it would work like this.
Our story begins with a small journey into the fascinating
world of Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). If you know anything about
them, it may help this analogy. If not, I should still be able to
help shed some light. CSS is used in conjunction with HTML pages to
influence formatting. For example, using CSS you may state that all
normal text on a page will be presented to the user in Arial font
at 12 points and bright red color. If you link that file to HTML
pages, you may literally influence thousands upon thousands of
pages with one simple CSS file. So think of your preferences file
as the CSS file I just described.
Within each HTML page, you have the ability to render certain
select bits of text as you wish. Again, using the principles of
CSS, you may elect to apply what is called an "in-line" style to
the text. Maybe you want this specific text to be bold, Tahoma font
16 points and bright purple color. And so it is.
But here's the deal. Later, you decide to change the
foundation CSS file. Perhaps changing the font to green text. You
make the change to the CSS and whoosh. That change cascades through
all your linked HTML files. EXCEPT, those bits of text where you
applied the In-Line formatting. Those are left alone, because you
explicitly applied a style that stated these are different and here
are their rules. So think about those imported questions as having
in-line styling applied.
As for the "Apply to all" setting, I think that this one may
not work 100% as one would hope it would. For me, it's occasionally
been a "hit and miss" affair. Not always, but sometimes.
Cheers... Rick

Best choice for exporting / importing EUL

Hi all
I have been tasked with migrating an EUL from a R11 to a R12 environment. The Discoverer version on both environments is 10.1.2 and the OS is Solaris on oracle db's.
I am unfortunately not experienced with Discoverer and there seems to be no one available to assist for various reasons. So I have been reading the manual and forum posts and viewing metalink articles.
I tried exporting the entire eul via the wizard and then importing it to the new environment but i was not successfull and experienced the system hanging for many hours with a white screen and the log file just ended.
I assumed this was a memory problem or slow network issues causing this delay. Someone suggested I export import the EUL in pieces and this seemed to be effective but I got missing item warnings when trying to open reports. This piece meal approach also worried me regarding consistency.
So I decided to try do the full import on the server to try negate the first problem I experienced. Due to the clients security policies I am not able to open the source eul and send it to our dev. I was able to get it from their dev 11 system but I dismissed this as the dev reports were not working and the only reliable eul is the Prod one. I managed to get a prod eex file from a client resource but the upload to my server was extremely slow.
I asked the dba to assit with the third option of exporting a db dump of the eul_us and importing this into my r12 dev environment. I managed this but had to export the db file using sys which alleviated a priviledge problem when logging in, I have reports that run and my user can see the reports but there are reports that were not shared to sysadmin in the source enviroment are now prefixed with the version 11 user_id in my desktop and the user cannot see her reports only the sysadmin ones.
I refreshed the BA's using a shell script I made up which uses the java cmd with parameters.
After some re reading I tried selecting all the options in the validate menu and refreshing in the discover admin tool.
If I validate and refresh the BA using the admin tool I get the hanging screen and a lot of warnings that items are missing( so much for my java cmd refresh!) and now the report will not open and I see the substitute missing item dialogue boxes.
My question to the forum is which would be the best approach to migrate the entire eul from a R11 instance to a R12 instance in these circumstances?
Many thanks
Regards
Nick

Hi Srini
The os and db details are as follows:
Source:
eBus 11.5.2
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
Target:
ebus 12.1.2
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production DEV12
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
Yes the DBA initially did an exp for me using EUL_US as the owner but a strange thing happened with privileges and also, some of the imported tables appeared in the target environment under the apps schema(21 tables) even though the eul_us exp had been 48 tables.
I also had a problem on the db with "eul_us has insufficient privileges on table space discoverer" type errors.
I checked the eul_us db privileges and was unable to resolve this initial privilege error even though the privileges were granted to eul_us.
The dba managed to exp as system and then import it with the full=y flag in the import command which seems to bring in the privileges.
Then I ran the eul5_id.sql and then made up a list of the business areas and made a sh script to refresh the business areas as follows:
java -jar eulbuilder.jar -connect sysadmin/oracle1@dev -apps_user -apps_responsibility "System Administrator" -refresh_business_area "ABM Activities" -log refresh.log
This runs successfully and I can log in select business area and grant access to the users. The reports return data.
Then one of the users said she can't see all her reports. I noticed some if I opened desktop that were sitting there prefixed with a hash and her version 11 user id.
So back to the manuals and in the disco admin help the instructions are to first go to view > validate > select all options then go to the business area and click file refresh. This gives me a lot of warnings about items that are missing. I assume this is because the item identifiers brought across in the db dump are the version 11 ones and thus not found in the new system.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks
Nick

How to import questions into Captivate 4 from a delimited file

I'm looking
a way to import questions from a delimited text file (or excel spreadsheet)
into captivate.
All the questions are simple multiple choice, single answer, four selections per question.
I have hundreds - I'd hate to have to retype them all in one at a time.
Thanks in advance
-Joan

Does anyone know if this is a feature in Captivate 5.
Other things I would really like to see in Captivate 5.
Importing and Exporting the graded quiz/test content out of captivate into another
application/ form. Such as xml, tab delimited, excel spreadsheet,
Adobe pdf, Word document or another format. Our current content
developement systems allows us to (when publishing) do this.
1> exclude questions from the Published content
(exclude section questions, or final test content)
2> produce different test versions from question banks
3> Produce a PDF paper test for when we want to train in a classroom setting
4> Select which questions we want to produce
5> Import questions from a pre-defined format. To note: when we do this the system also makes us define a unique interaction id so that the import will update existing questions.
I know this will NOT work for some of the more sophisticated questions, But for the simple Mulitple choice, true/false, fill in the blank. etc..
THIS WOULD BE A GREAT FEATURE..
It would also be NICE TO HAVE THE abiliy to PROFILE versions of the SAME Course WITH OUT REPRODUCING / DUPLICATING / REPEATING THE ENTIRE COURSE PRESENTATION.
Such as
"INSTRUCTOR TAUGHT TRAINING"
"WEB TRAINING"
"PAPER TEST A"
"PAPER TEST B"
ETC...
LASTLY: if we can not export the QUIZ content. Can an excel spreadsheet LIKE INTERFACE be used to edit certain aspects of the questions.
Such as the InteractionId which is sent to the LMS ('cmi.interactions.0.id'). My developer team says it is real difficult and time consuming
to track down interactionIds and then maintain them in a perfect way.
Thanks,

Export/Import Process in the UI for Variations Content Translation is Generating CMP Files with No XML

We have a SharePoint 2010 Publishing Website that uses variations to deliver contain to multiple languages. We are using a third-party translation company to translate publishing pages. The pages are
exported using the export/import using the UI process described here: "http://blogs.technet.com/b/stefan_gossner/archive/2011/12/02/sharepoint-variations-the-complete-guide-part-16-translation-support.aspx".
Certain sub-sites are extremely content-intensive. They may contain many items in the Pages library as well as lists and other sub-sites.
For some sub-sites (not all), the exported CMP file contains no XML files. There should be a Manifest.XML, Requirements.XML, ExportSettings.XML, etc., but there are none. After renaming the CMP file
to CAB and extracting it, the only files it contains are DAT files.
The only difference I can see between the sub-sites that generate CMP files with no XML files is size. For example, there is one site that is 114 MB that produces a CMP file with no XML files. Small
sites do not have this problem. If size is the problem, then I would think the process would generate an error instead of creating a single CMP file that contains only DAT files. However, I do not know exactly what the Export/Import Process in the UI is doing.
This leads to two questions:
1.
Does anyone know why some CMP files, when renamed to *.CAB and extracted, would not contain the necessary XML files?
2. Second, if exporting using the UI will not work, can I use PowerShell? I have tried the Export-SPWeb, but the Manifest.XML does not contain translatable
content. I have not found any parameters that I can use with Export-SPWeb to cause the exported CMP to be in the same format as the one produced by the Export/Import process in the UI.
As a next step, we could try developing custom code using the Publishing Service, but before doing this, I would like to understand why the Export/Import process in the UI generates a CMP that
contains no XML files.
If no one can answer this question, I would appreciate just some general help on understanding exactly what is happening with the Export/Import Process -- that is, the one that runs when you select
the export or import option in the Site Manager drop down. Understanding what it is actually doing will help us troubleshoot why there are no XML files in certain export CMPs and assist with determining an alternate approach.
Thanks in advance
Kim Ryan, SharePoint Consultant kim.ryan@[no spam]pa-tech.com

I wanted to bump this post to see about getting some more responses to your problem. I'm running into the same problem as well. We're running a SharePoint 2010 site and are looking at adding variations now. The two subsites with the most content take a
while to generate the .cmp file (one to two minutes of the browser loading bar spinning waiting on the file). Both files are generated with a lot of .dat files but no .xml files. I was thinking like you that it must be a size issue. Not sure though. Did you
ever happen to find a solution to this problem?

Transfer Foreign Trade Export Import values in Purchase Order

Hello SRM brothers and sisters,
I have a question regarding the transfer of the Import/Export data (Foreign Trade) in the PO from SRM to ECC in the Classic Extended Scenario.
Basically, in the SRM BBP_ECS_PO_OUT_BADI -> BBP_B46B_PO_OUTBOUND method where we map all the values, I try to fill in the CT_BAPI_POEXPIMPITEM table with the item's Import/Export values.
The way this is done is:
if nothing exists in this CT_BAPI_POEXPIMPITEM table for the PO item, add an empty line and assign the following fields ( PO_ITEM, EXPORT_IMPORT_PROCEDURE, COUNTRYORI and COMM_CODE).
This is then sent to ECC via the RFC BBP_PO_INBOUND function module - and inside I know that it assigns the X-structure of Export/Import Item. It then calls the BAPI_PO_CREATE / BAPI_PO_CHANGE and in the debugger the values seem to be correct.
This all seems to be very nice, however when I take a look at the PO in ME23n, the values of the Import/Export data are not there! In table EIPO there is also nothing... As for error messages, nothing comes up either.
So, has this happened to anyone? Am I doing something wrong? Is there an extra step I should do (ie, fill another structure/table/field)?
Cheers,
Adi

Hi Kishor,
Thanks for your reply.I need to some more inputs if you can...
As you mention :-You need to enter the special UOM according to the specifications in the index of goods or foreign trade statistics: can you give a example to get more clarification.and how Qtys. are converted to this unit for the export declaration.
You mentionwd : (FOr each item, you have to enter the amount of the unit of measure determined
in the index of goods. Eg: number of units) -can u explain with example. what is index of Goods.
Thanks in adavance.
Thank you.
Regards
Amar
