Export to another Work Repository.

Hi all,
I have a problem linked to the change of my work repository. Infact I have to change it but I'd like to save all my configuration. I had exported:
1. all my input datastores;
2. all my output datastores;
3. my interfaces, packages, procedures.
The next step I did, it was importing them in the new work repository in 'Synonym mode - Insert'.
At the end of this process, I didn't have the expected properly behaviour: in fact, in the interfaces configuration I have all my input datastores were blank. It's strange because these input datastores are correctly imported and I can, for example, build some new interfaces with them.
Do you have any suggestions about this issue?
Should I follow a different path for reaching my expected result?
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards
P

Thanks for your reply...
odiparams.bat seems to be for connect-information to the master-repository only.
I have set and verified the information in this file after migrating.
My problem remains; In my new metadata navigator I see the information from my old repository. But execution of the packages takes place in the correct dabatase; this confirms that my new master repository is being used...
I think my question is: Since it seems that my old work-repository is being used, where can I check the connection-information of the work-repository?
In Metalink note: 423585.1, there is said: "4. Edit each work repository that is now hosted on a new server and edit its connection parameters by clicking on the 'Connection' button"
... but I'm not able to find this button, and furthermore, I cannot find any connection-related information about Work-repositories in the Topology Manager.
If someone has any ideas, it would be greatly appreaciated.

How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

How can I move the ODI Work Repository from one server to another server?

Hi,
If you would like to move your source models, target models and project contents from Work repository 1 to another work repository.
I.e. Dev. server to Prod Server.
1. Firstly, replicate the master repository connections i.e. with same naming conventions manually
2. Go to Dev. Server work repository -> File Tab -> Click on Export work repository (save it in a folder)
3. After exporting, you can view the xml files in the folders.
4. Now, Open the Prod. server and make sure you already replicated mas. rep. details.
5. Now, right click on model and import source model in synonym mode insert_update (select source model from the folder where your xml file located)
6. Similarily, import again target then Project.
Now, check. It should work.
Thank you.

Work repository not bound to Master Repository

Hi All,
I have created a schema with username ODIW and password ODIW and created a work repository named WORKREP1 in the ODI topology. Now when i am logging in to the client through the newly created WORK repository no error is shown and i am able to login. But when i am starting the managed server an error throws 'oracle.odi.core.config.RepositoriesNotBoundException: Repositories not bound'.(during the installation of ODI 11.1.1.3.0, it had prompted for a work repository name and i had given ODI_WORK _REP but i have now forgotten the password...thats why i had to create another work repository schema)....will it hamper while executing scenario.
In the odparams.sh file the parameter ODI_SECU_WORK_REP=ODI_WORK_REP but i want to change to WORKREP1(Is it possible?)
I have kept the master repository schema same
Please help on this

Hi Gatha,
Yes thats correct.In the odiparams.sh file my work repository name shown is ODI_WORK_REP
I think the name should be changed to WORKREP1
Please mention the command for encrypting the password in the odiparams.sh file
Another query is that why i am not able to login to the old work repository

Security 'path' for work repository permissions

I have a dozen work repositories.
I need to allow a developer to access one repository for metadata discovery - Read only, no updates.
Another Work repository, I need to allow a the developer to update the column and table descriptions in any model. I do not want this developer to add folders, models, sub-models, tables, or columns. I do not want the developer to update folders or models. I do not want the developer deleting anything. I do not want the developer accessing other work repositories.
What profiles do I need to give this person?
What modifications do I need to make to the permissions/profiles?

Hello,
ODI does not allow to define privileges on objects types depending on the work repository, but lets you define privileges on object instances depending on the work repository. In your case, you would need to define the privileges on the instances (using generic profiles). This is not exactly what you need, but this should do the trick.
See the "Defining the Security Policy" topic in the user documentation for more info.

Master & work repository Export/Import

Hi all,
I have installed ODI on the production server.
I have to import the repositories on this prod server from the development server.
1.I am not having seperate schema for the master repository for the prod & I have to use the same master repository that was created for the development server SOothere is no import & export ??
Question is
Can I refer the same master repository schema in the production server that means all the connection details i.e it will be the linking of same repository that was there for DEV?? Can I do that??
2. I have separate schema for work repository in prod but have to use the work repository of the DEV server.
here I have to do import & export???
Please guide
Thanks
Sourabh

How are you trying to do the import/export?
If you are importing the obejcts in designer - it will use the credentials you specified when you connected.

SUNOPSIS to ODI migration : AS/400 error in work repository upgrade

Hi,
We're migrating SUNOPSIS v3.2.02.19 to ODI 10.1.3.5.0, with repositories on DB2 AS/400.
We achieve to migrate master repository without any problem, and we try now to migrate the work repository and we have the following error :

Check out the metalink document for upgrade
Best Practices For Upgrading From Sunopsis To Oracle Data Integrator [ID 437223.1]
Important things to be aware of if you are upgrading from Sunopsis V3:
Sunopsis V3 uses JVM 1.3.1 while ODI 10.1.3 requires a minimum of JVM 1.4.2. This is not an issue if you are upgrading from Sunopsis v4.
Sunopsis V3 allows mixed-case Context Codes, which are automatically converted to upper-case in V4 and ODI versions. To fix the Issue, manual updates of all Context Codes referenced in the Work Repository must be performed. These updates should be made on all Work Repositories related to a same Master Repository.
In Sunopsis V3 DB2UDB Technology definition (\lib\scripts\xml\TECH_IBMDB2UDB.xml), The BLOB is defined with a size of 2G. The Master Repository creation fails at
CREATE TABLE SNP_DATA ( I_DATA NUMERIC(10) NOT NULL, DATA_CONTENTS BLOB(2G)
with error message :
SQLCODE -355 SQLSTATE 42993 SQLERRMC: DATA_CONTENTS
The error means that the column is too large for logging. 2G exceeds DB2 1G limit for Blob datatypes. This is fixed in Sunopsis 4.0.
After upgrading Sunopsis v3 Master to ODI, the user will still run into this issue if he tries to export this upgraded Master and import it into another Master using mimport.bat.
Solution: Modify the upgraded V3 Master Repository TECH_IBMDB2UDB.xml file and change the 2g to 100M. i.e.
<Field name="DdlLongrawMask" type="java.lang.String"><![CDATA[BLOB(100M)]]></Field>
Then try the import again.

Import work repository

Hi all,
Can anyone help me out on this:
I want to migrate my work repository from one machine to another after we have done some additional work which includes new Interfaces, but also changed properties for certain columns. Using the "import workrepository" option I can choose between INSERT, UPDATE and INSERT_UPDATE synonym-mode.
When I choose INSERT_UPDATE (which makes most sense in my case, I think), it always fails with the error that an object is updated by another user.
However, when I choose INSERT-mode, everything works fine; new objects are inserted and changes to existing objects are also updated.
Am I missing something here? I cannot find anything about this in the docs...
Thanks in advance,
Steffen

Hi Steffen,
Ok, seems that I had a environment a little different, in my case there were 2 Development Work Repository.
Anyway I already see the same situation between a Development Work Rep and the Execution Work Rep and the solution is (at the project I´m work right now, 25 ODI developers):
Deployment Steps:
1) Development Architecture:
Any object is a scenario, it means that after you create a procedure, an interface, variable... (any object!) you need to create its scenario. In this way the package that will define the process flow will have just scenarios inside.
This architecture will give you a little more work at the first deployment but allow you a better control of object (code) version at complex process when you need changes in a singe step for instance...
2) Deployment between Repositories:
At the first time of the object -> Normal export from Development Work Rep (Designer) and import in "Insert-Update" mode at Execution Work Rep.
Post first Deployment:
a) if you work with scenario version, just deploy the new version (it is like a first time) and make a new deploy of the "flow" package calling the new version at its related steep (unless if you are using the "-SCEN_VERSION= -1" at the call)
b) if you work just with "Regenerate" Scenario and are keeping the same version then you need delete the object at Execution Work Rep and import it again in the "Insert-Update" mode.
I hope to be helpfull!!! Any doubt, please, post new message!!!

Migrating a work repository loses the LKM selection on all interfaces

Hi,
I have a number of projects that I have just moved from one development environment to another. I've actually carried it out twice now and had the same error each time.
I export the work repository from my working development environment, then after setting up all the connections/schemas in the new environment, I import the work repository through designer.
Everything seems to import fine, all my models are there, all my projects are there, but
1. The models no longer have the Journalising Knowledge module selected and I have to reselect it before starting any journals.
2. All the interfaces have lost the selection of the LKM in the flow tab. I have to open each interface and select the LKM I want and then rebuild all my scenarios.
Has anyone seen this problem? Any light you can shed?
I had a search and haven't seen anything similar.
Regards
Damian

Has anyone else had this problem? Any reason why the LKM selection gets dropped during the import?
It is quite a hassle to fix up every interface & then regenerate scenario's after importing a repository.
Cheers,
Matt

Problem While Importing Work Repository

I am facing a problem with import and export in ODI.
I was working in ODI Designer and had to move my work repository from one host machine to another host machine.
After doing a database migration of the ODI database to the new machine, the master repository was imported.
There was no problem in importing the master repository.
While taking an export of the old work repository, I took an export into a zip file:
File---->Export----->Work Repository
And specified the zip file name there
Now the problem is, that when I import the work repository into the new environment/host/machine, it throws an error.........
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-02291: integrity constraint (SCHEMA_NAME.FK_COL_COL) violated - parent key not found
where SCHEMA_NAME is the Oracle schema being used as a work schema

CJ@DI

Yes I believe that's the problem
Thanks a lot for ur suggestion, I'm going to try that
Because my schema had been created a month ago and there was some metadat already stored in it at that time
But now I wanted to REPLACE all that through ODI
But that seems an impossible task
So will try to drop and re-create the schema and then import.
I had some invalid interfaces in my export as well.......so that could have caused it
Well, in ideal terms ODI should throw an error when you try to export and if anything is invalid in your Designer
I guess the tool still needs to evolve
That's my perception but maybe I'm not following some procedures to do things in ODI ; long way to learn!

Hi Adrian,
Why don't you try any another software for opening CSV files then Notepad ? According to my experience, you can use these softwares to open an CSV files and they are:-
Microsoft Excel
Open Office Calc
Google Docs
Also there is an additional tool available known as CSV viewer. You may try this, download it from here http://www.csvviewer.com/
I've never used Notepad for opening CSV files, because sometimes it contains some symbols which are not not at all compatibile with Notepad.

How to schedule two jobs from two different work repository at a time?

Hi All,
I have a scenario where I want to schedule two jobs at a time from two work repository.
Explanation:
Master Repository-A
Work Rep-B
Work Rep-C
Now I need to schedule two scenario one from Work rep B and other from Work Rep-C
As we know that odiparams batch file contains the connection details and at one time it can hold only one work repository name.
Odiparams data:
rem Repository Connection Information
rem
set ODI_SECU_DRIVER=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
set ODI_SECU_URL=jdbc:jdbc:oracle:thin:@10.10.10.10:1521:orcl
set ODI_SECU_USER=odi_snpm
set ODI_SECU_ENCODED_PASS=aYyHZZCrzk5SjQ9rPOIUHp
set ODI_SECU_WORK_REP=*ODI_LOCALDEV_WRKREP*
set ODI_USER=SUPERVISOR
set ODI_ENCODED_PASS=LELKIELGLJMDLKMGHEHJDBGBGFDGGH
Scheduler agent will pick this information from the odiparams file and update the schedule.
So If I want to schedule two job, how it is possible?
I tried all possible things but didn't get the proper solution?
Edited by: user10765509 on Jul 21, 2010 4:58 AM

You can do it in the following way
1. copy/paste the original odiparams.bat file
2. give it a name say odiparams_a.bat
3. specify the work repository A related information in odiparams_a.bat
4. Make another copy of odiparams.bat file
5. give it a name say odiparams_b.bat
6 specify the work repository B related information in odiparams_b.bat
7. now make 2 copies of agentscheduler.bat give the name as follows
agentscheduler_a.bat and agentscheduler_b.bat
8. edit agentscheduler_a.bat and change
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams.bat"
with
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams_a.bat"
9. edit agentscheduler_b.bat and change
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams.bat"
with
call "%ODI_HOME%\bin\odiparams_b.bat"
10. now start two scheduler agent by calling agentscheduler_a.bat and agentscheduler_b.bat

DM - "Export from Fact Table" works but "Export" does not work properly

Hi,
I'm using BPC7M.
I found it strange that Export cannot dump data to a flat file though I'm pretty sure my selection of dimension members contain data. The existing of data was further confirmed by running Export from Fact Table successfully, where I chose the same set of dimension members. Below are the log files.

I tried Export in another application and it worked properly. Maybe there is something wrong with the application but I don't know how I can fix this.
Thanks!
Sunny

Hi Sorin,
In order to make sure the sum is not equal to 0, I ran the "Clear" package and full optimize the application. Afterwards, I deliberately sent only 1 record. I ran the "Export from Fact Table" and I have the following contents in my output flat file.
B_ACCOUNT,TIME,WED_ENTITY,DATASRC,CATEGORY,SIGNEDDATA
KPI0001,2009.INP,DEP_INPUT,INPUT,ACTUAL,-500.0000000
This confirms that the sum is not 0. Then, I ran "Export" package. Yet again, I encountered the same error.
There is no data in the selected region; select a region that has data._2_True

Sunny

How to use a Work Repository when type is set to 'Execution' ?

Hi All,
I was just trying my hand at importing and exporting work repositories , I need to know how we can use a certain work repository when its type is set to 'Execution'
I want to import some packages (which are in some other Work repository ) into that Work repository but I am missing something somewhere.
Can somebody tell me what are the exact steps to import packages or Entire Work Repository into this newly created 'Execution' type Repository ??
Regards.

Hi,
An work repository which is of EXECUTION type cant be used to import packages/interfaces etc.
You can able to import only SCENARIOS in Operator component (from scenarios tab) and "just" execute it. As the term execution repository stands, u can able to execute objects created in Development repository.
Moreover, u cant access designer itself if its a EXECUTION repository.
Thanks,
Guru

How to deal with more than one work repository vividly?

I create one master repository with two work repository , now how can i vividly build up ODI interface in differently work repository?
anyone reply will be appreciately,thank you very much!

There are two kinds of work repositories - Development and Execution.
Usually you have one Development repository which you use to develop packages, interfaces, procedures, variables etc.
As soon as you object is ready to deploy you can create scenario from it. Afterwards you can move scenario to any execution repository you have using export/import.

Export to another Work Repository.
