Extracting Metadata & Hierarchies

Suppose I have the following roll ups in the Entity dimension:
-Entities
---Central
------New York (parent: Central)
------Texas (parent: Central)
------Oklahoma (parent: Central)
------Kansas (parent: Central)
------Hawaii (parent: Central)
---Midwest
------Arkansas (parent: USA)
------Kansas (parent: Central)
------Nebraska (parent: USA)
I want to extract something for Midwest only, with a relationship as listed below:
Base / Owner
Arkansas / Midwest
Kansas / Midwest
Nebraska / Midwest
Is this possible? There will be various levels of nesting, but the main point is that I just want to pick one certain hierarchy from the Entity dimension and have it roll up. The problem I'm having is with base members existing in multiple hierarchies and having only the one default parent listed in the metadata. I've tried the extract tools in the consultant utilities and can't get them in the format above.
Thanks!

The purpose is to "easily" extract a hierarchy to bump up against data in a data warehouse. For example, in our Account dimension we have several hierarchies...2 different types of P&Ls, a Balance Sheet, stat accounts, etc. I'd like to extract one of our P&L structures, but since many of the base members are shared (and have default parents in the other P&L structure) I cannot find a way to do this.
I think Kelly's method would work (extracting using the utilities and creating a macro to fix the excel file to my specs), but I was hoping for a more systematic and less manual extract.

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.

Problems with extract metadata from Essbase with ODI 10.1.3.5.

Hello there, I have a really annoying problem. I have 2 dimensions in essbase v11 with a space on it, (Itens Financeiros and Centros Financeiros), and this is causing a problem when I try to extract the metadata from essbace to a table. the problem occurs some times in 3 - loading - ss_0 - begin essbase metadata extract and some times in 4 - loading ss_0 - extract metadata, but in this 2 steps the error is the same:
unknown member name [itens] in function [@idescendants]. I see in Johns blog someone sayng to add a '/"' in the front and at the end of the member filter criteria to allow ODI to parse the space as part of the member name. but I really don't understand this. Someone can helpme with this? Thanck you.

It doesn't matter, I am able to replicate with an older version of the essbase adaptor...
I take it this is the type of error you are receiving "com.hyperion.odi.essbase.ODIEssbaseException: Extract operation failed : Cannot query members by specs. Analytic Server Error(1200497): Error parsing formula for [REGION DEFINITION"
If you download patch - Patch 8785893: ORACLE DATA INTEGRATOR 10.1.3.5.2_02 ONE-OFF PATCH
It is easy to install just a matter of copying a jar file over an existing one in the \oracledi\drivers directory.
It should resolve the issue.
Ok?

Data Extraction from hierarchies in BW info-object

Dear All,
I have a question here regarding master data extraction from hierarchies from BW info-object.
we have a info-object called as Customer which is defined in the standalone BW system. under the hierarchies for the customer we have the Channel defined.
Now I have created 2 info-objects in APO BW for Customer and Channel. channel is defined as an attribute of the customer.
I am wondering to do I extract data from the Customer info-object in standalone BW to both these charactersitics in APO BW?
Regards,
Kedar Agarkar

Hello Kedar,
Please open this thread on the SDN Forum "DATA WAREHOUSING".
I already talked with a BW colleague and he suggested to try there, it seems to be their issue.
Thanks and regards,

How can I extract metadata from file names?

If I want to extract metadata from file names? How can I do that? I want to read through the file names and when I get to a certain character ("-"), I can take the string just before that character and store it in a column in SharePoint. Is this
do-able through scripting?

You should be able to leverage the split method.
In PowerShell It would look like:
# Gather the file name
$file = "myawesome_filename-Month-Day-Year-Ect.doc"
#split the file name by the "-" character
$file = $file.split("-")
# Use a foreach Loop to gather the individual items.
foreach ($item in $file) {
write-host $item
#Outputmyawesome_filename
Month
Day
Year
Ect.doc
# If you want to only grab the first item, you can do $file[0] <-- powershell starts counting with zero base.
$file[0]
#output
myawesome_filename

Can OWB extract metadata from foxpro 2.5 or foxbase?

We know that OWB can extract metadata from some relational databases other than Oracle database with Heterogeneous Services. Sybase,DB2 and SQL Server provide
specific agent for Oracle.What about foxpro 2.5 or foxbase?
If they haven't any agent for oracle,is it possible to extract metadata from a foxpro 2.5 or a foxbase database using ODBC agent?
Thanks for any help!!!

I don't think there is a gateway, so I would use ODBC and the heterogeneous services in the database to do this.

Extracting Custom Hierarchies, with additional filters to restrict data.

I am currently working on extracting custom hierarchies from SAP R/3.
I read a article related to it at
[http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/50cbb737-b36f-2c10-c78b-b63d116ce313?QuickLink=index&overridelayout=true] authored by Nilesh Ramesh Ahir.
My requirement is slightly different though. Since the extraction takes long time, I need to add few fields to selection screen in data source to restrict the data.
P.S: I tried enhancing the extract structure ROHIEROS, but it cannot be enhanced.
So please guide me on this.

Hello Prakash,
Please check the function module RSSH_HIERARCHY_TRANSFER and see if it helps.

Extracting metadata from Enterprise manager 12c

Hi,
I want to extract metadata information regarding incident rules and metrics which i have configured in OEM 12c.Please tell me the file name and location where i find out this information.

For findings which targets are assigned to an Incident Rule Set?
The following query could be used as sysman user on repos DB
SELECT ruleset_name, target_selection_type, source_selection_type FROM em_rule_sets ORDER BY 3, 1;
IMPORTANT:
=========
- The "target_selection_type" column indicates somehow the target type to which you associated that Rule Set when you initially created it.
- That column is of type number and has only 4 choices (1, 2, 4 and 6).
- The below are hints regarding the output of that column:
TARGET_SELECTION_TYPE    SOURCE_SELECTION_TYPE
1                                      SELFUPDATE_SECURE_CLASS ---->> means that the Rule Set is applied to 'Self Update Events'.
2                                      TARGET ---->> means that the Rule Set is applied to 'All Targets'.
2                                      MEXT_SECURE_CLASS ---->> means that the Rule Set is applied to 'Metric Extensions'.
2                                      JOB ---->> means that the Rule Set is applied to 'Jobs'.
4                                      TARGET ---->> means that the Rule Set is applied to 'All Targets of type'.
6                                      TARGET ---->> means that the Rule Set is applied to 'Specific Targets'.

Extract Metadata with Adobe XMP

Hey!
I wrote two interesting articles about extracting Metadata data with Adobe XMP through External Object.
Extract Metadata with Adobe XMP [Part 1]
Extract Metadata with Adobe XMP [Part 2]

Hi,
Adobe provides a "FileInfo SDK" to create own custom panels.
For pre CS4 please see the download "XMP Custom File Info for pre-CS4 products" in the fileInfo section at the end of our SDK webpage: http://www.adobe.com/devnet/xmp/
For CS4 the FileInfo dialog is now flash based and the SDK has significantly changed. Please check the "FileInfo SDK 4.4". The new SDK also has a way to create a panel with limited programming skills. Just look for the generic panel which is located in the tools folder.
I hope this helps,

Extract Metadata from Final Cut Pro Project files...

We're currently scanning our project directory (running great by the way), but I'm curious - Is there a way for Final Cut Server to extract metadata from the XML. Timecode info, titling, descriptions, etc and tag that info to the final cut project within FC Server?
That would be great!
Ryan

Hello!
I was just told by Apple (several hours ago), that it's a bug which happens on some Final Cut Servers. They said that the engineering team is looking into it.
The tech guy had me open the project in Final Cut (directly, not with FC Server involvement), then go up to File, Export, Export as XML. Then, he had me look within Final Cut Server and then it would let me checkin/out, etc. He said that it's a bug they're working on.
I hope it gets fixed soon! I need it fixed in order to do what we plan on doing.

HFM client vanishes after trying to Extract Metadata

Hey!
When I installed HFM, I configured my DCOM with a default user admin.
Had to change recently because my Dataload via FDM with Drillable region was not working. So, changed to a domain account. Dataload is working now.
But noticed that I cannot extract metadata anymore. While trying to do so, my HFM Client vanishes.
Idea?
Thanks
-Cheers

Hi Tony!
What is crashing is my HFM Client, not FDM =)
I cannot do any operation with HFM such as load metadata, extract metadata/data, nothing.
It just vanishes at the middle of operation (I guess)... and no log is recorded.
At the FDM machine I can do those tasks with no problem (same application)...
