GoldenGate and "Generic ODBC" target...

Hi all,
I believe I am looking for a Generic ODBC version of GoldenGate - but seem to be unable to locate it...
I am able to find the likes of - "Oracle GoldenGate for Non Oracle Database v11.1.1.1.0 Media Pack for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)" - at edelivery.oracle.com
But within there is no mention of "Generic ODBC"...
Can someone please advise?
Thanks in advance...
Regards,
Garry

Well, perhaps not and I may not be entirely correct.
My answer is based on what is shown as being supported/certified via certification and software availability.
Steve, you are correct. The documentation needs to be updated if it says that 'generic odbc' is still supported as a generic target. (But, for most target DB's -- other than oracle -- GG does use odbc to some extent.) Only specific databases (and specific database versions) are supported as both sources & targets by GoldenGate.
Once upon a time (prior to Oracle's acquisition), there was a generic ODBC replicat. That has been de-supported & discontinued. (It wasn't really that well supported when it was available, so it was no great loss.) All of the current replicat implementations take into consideration the specific features, data type support & limitations of the target database.
That being said, the functionality in 'replicat' is relatively independent of the target database implementation, since it IS a basic SQL client. That is, relative to "extract", which is very tightly coupled to the database implementation (by it's very nature of being a log reader). So if there is another database target that needs to be implemented & supported, it's a lot less development work than a new database source.
So, do open a ticket if there's a currently unavailable DB that you require, including as many details as you can. The more requests there are, the more likely it is to be implemented. It may even be something that's already in the works.
-Mike
edit: though, just to be clear, I'm pretty sure OpenLink Virtuoso is not one of the new targets being worked on.

OWB 11.2.0.1 dimension and cube operators + ODBC target database

Hi,
We are considering using OWB to populate a netezza data mart making use of the dimension and cube operators.
Could we use OWB for this/is it supported in this manner or do we need to use another ETL tool/workaround.
Understand OWB supports ODBC as target.
Any advice much appreciated.
Thanks

Hi
You can have ODBC targets but the cube/dim operators use MERGE loading type so its not a tested/supported case using the operators with Netezza. It has been optimized for Oracle.

Error creating a multisource data foundation with generic odbc connection

Hi all,
we've created a generic odbc datasource connection to a Pervasive database.
When creating a single source data foundation and universe with this connection everything works fine.
When we try to create a multisource data foundation we can add the connection,
but while trying to expand the connection we get the error message "Owners are not available".
Same message when trying to inert a table.
(We've created both a 32 bit and a 64 bit DSN)
System: BO 4.1 SP2 PL3
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Silvia

Hi Silvia,
The generic odbc is not a supported connection for a multisource universe.
This information is available in the product availability matrix.
1. Log into the SAP Support Portal
2. choose the Tab for Release & Upgrade Info
3. Choose the Link Product Availability Matrix.
Hope this helps!

Source of xslt mapping and XSD/ XMT target structures for standard Idocs

Hi,
I am working on R/3 - XI - ICH scenario. I need xslt mapping and XSD/ XML target structures for standard IDoc like PROACT01,DELFOR01, DELVRY03. I tried to search it on marketplace but couldn't find it there. As per configuration document, these things are shipped with XI mapping content in live cache CD. But I don't have this CD with me. Can anybody tell me the source for these target structures and mapping program. ( Please share marketplace, site link or send me across the mail [email protected])
Thank you in advance.
Anand More.

Anand the other option is to import the corresponding idocs into your integration repository and then you can view the generated XSD there.
As regards XSLT mapping, you need to basically first identify as to what form you want to transform your source idoc into.
For some help on XSLT mapping check the following threads,

Customer and Generic extraction difference ?

Hi ya,
Could any body tell me the difference between the customer and Generic extractions.what are the extraction steps?
Regards.
H

Hi,
In Generic extraction we have to fetch the data from table/view/funtion module.T.code RSO2.
Replicate the data source in bw and send into data target through ods(recommandable).
In customized extraction sap provided LIS,LO-COCKPIT,CO-PA,FI-SL etc,in these sap provides extract stuructures.From the extract structures we have to fetch the data and replicate the data into bw and push into the data targets.

How to do basic LO extraction for SAP-R3-BW
1. Go to transaction code RSA3 and see if any data is available related to your DataSource. If data is there in RSA3 then go to transaction code LBWG (Delete Setup data) and delete the data by entering the application name.
2. Go to transaction SBIW --> Settings for Application Specific Datasource --> Logistics --> Managing extract structures --> Initialization --> Filling the Setup table --> Application specific setup of statistical data --> perform setup (relevant application)
3. In OLI*** (for example OLI7BW for Statistical setup for old documents : Orders) give the name of the run and execute. Now all the available records from R/3 will be loaded to setup tables.
4. Go to transaction RSA3 and check the data.
5. Go to transaction LBWE and make sure the update mode for the corresponding DataSource is serialized V3 update.
6. Go to BW system and create infopackage and under the update tab select the initialize delta process. And schedule the package. Now all the data available in the setup tables are now loaded into the data target.
7.Now for the delta records go to LBWE in R/3 and change the update mode for the corresponding DataSource to Direct/Queue delta. By doing this record will bypass SM13 and directly go to RSA7. Go to transaction code RSA7 there you can see green light # Once the new records are added immediately you can see the record in RSA7.
8.Go to BW system and create a new infopackage for delta loads. Double click on new infopackage. Under update tab you can see the delta update radio button.
9.Now you can go to your data target and see the delta record.
find your scenario and find what data sources do you need on R3 side and ensure they are active as well:
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/37/5fb13cd0500255e10000000a114084/frameset.htm
find your scenario -> data sources -> go to R3 -> sbiw and activate required data source
replicate data sources in BW:
RSA1 -> source systems -> right click on your source system -> replicate
then activate your BC:
service.sap.com/bi -> BI Business Content -> General Information -> SAP BW Business Content - Activation
and execute infopackage (it should be delivered with BC)

Process Chain : Read PSA and Update Data Target in BI 7.0

Hello Experts,
In my Process Chain I have a variant Execute Infopackage to load the data only into PSA. then I have next variant as *Read PSA and Update Data Target*. my data target was a Master Data table Hierarchy
In the variant " Read PSA and Update Data Target". the selection Parameters were
PSA.Table : 0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA1
Selection Object Type : same Infopackage in Varaint Execute Infopackage
the Error message was Variant doesnot contain a valid combination request/data target
I checked the PSA-Table using RSA1OLD Transaction then I find four PSA Tables:
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA1
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA2
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA3
0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA4
All the requests are linked to PSA Table *0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA4*.
I can't understand why there exists four PSA Tables?
I try to link the PSA-table 0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA4 in the variant *Read PSA and Update Data Target and try to save it it raises short dump.
If I select 0GLACCEXT_T011_HIER_BA1 in the varaint I shouldn't face any problems.?
but the process chain raises an Error message Variant doesnot contain a valid combination request/data target with this variant.
How shall I handle this issue?
Please carify me the issues as soon as possible.
thanks in advance
Regards
sailekha

Hello,
In the Variant Read PSA and Update Data Target I have to select the PSA Tabelle Name from the preselection list in the System it shows me all the four PSA Tables that I mentioned.
I can select any one of them. So I trieed with all the four PSA Tables in the list but I can selct only the XXXX......BA1 table then only I can save and include it in the PC. If I select the remaining tables BA2, BA3, BA4.........while I try to save the Variant it raises short dump.
I checked the PSA using the Transaction RSA1OLD under PSA...... I find 4 PSA Tables( I don't know whether they are PSA Tables or not but in the Variant it states that they are PSA Tables) in which all the requests are attached to BA4. only.
I observed that ony for Hierarchies I find four PSA tables for remaining one only one PSA table was available.
I totally confused how to handle this situation. any suggestions......... please help me to resolve this problem.
Thanks & Regards

Line items AND GENERIC EXTRACTION

what does line items exactly mean in DATASOURCES
AND WHAT ARE DELTA TYPE EXTRACTIONS IN GENERIC
TIME STAMPING
CALENDAR DAY
NUMERICAL POINTER
COULD ANY PLEASE EXPLAIN THE DIFFERNCE AND IN WHAT SCENARIOS WE USE IT ...
LOOKING FOR YOUR REPLY

Hi Guru,
Check below doc & thread for Line Item Dimension:
https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/a7f2f294-0501-0010-11bb-80e0d67c3e4a
Line Item Dimenstion
If a field (date, progressive document number, timestamp) exists in the extract structure of a DataSource that contains values which increase monotonously over time, you can define delta capability for this DataSource. If such a delta-relevant field exists in the extract structure, such as a timestamp, the system determines the data volume transferred in the delta method by comparing the maximum value transferred with the last load with the amount of data that has since entered the system. Only the data that has newly arrived is transferred.
To get the delta, generic delta management translates the update mode into a selection criterion. The selection of the request is enhanced with an interval for the delta-relevant field. The lower limit of the interval is known from the previous extraction. The upper limit is taken from the current value, such as the timestamp or the time of extraction. You can use security intervals to ensure that all data is taken into consideration in the extractions (The purpose of a security interval is to make the system take into consideration records that appear during the extraction process but which remain unextracted -since they have yet to be saved- during the next extraction; you have the option of adding a security interval to the upper limit/lower limit of the interval).
After the data request was transferred to the extractor, and the data was extracted, the extractor then informs generic delta management that the pointer can be set to the upper limit of the previously returned interval.
To have a clear idea:
1. If delta field is Date (Record Create Date or change date), then use Upper Limit of 1 day.
This will load Delta in BW as of yesterday. Leave Lower limit blank.
2. If delta field is Time Stamp, then use Upper Limit of equal to 1800 Seconds (30 minutes).
This will load Delta in BW as of 30 minutes old. Leave Lower limit blank.
3. If delta field is a Numeric Pointer i.e. generated record # like in GLPCA table, then use
Lower Limit. Use count 10-100. Leave upper limit blank. If value 10 is used then last 10
records will be loaded again. If a record is created when load was running, those records
may get lost. To prevent this situation, lower limit can be used to backup the starting
sequence number. This may result in some records being processed more than once.

** Is it possible to move back and generate the target node in Message Map

Hi,
We are doing EDI to IDoc scenario. In our scenario the source XML comes like
XML Instance
G_SPOC       (Node) 0..unbounded
   D_670       (Field)
   S_SDQ      (Node)
     D_67
     D_380
     D_67_2
     D_380_2
G_SPOC
   D_670
   S_CTP
     D_212
G_SPOC
   D_670
   S_SDQ
     D_67
     D_380
     D_67_2
     D_380_2
Target Strcutre
E1EDP01    0..unbounded
For this instance we have to create E1EDP01 node for how much times D_67,D_67_2..... will come.
By using 'CreateIf' function we check the existance of D_67,D_67_2 ... and create the target structure E1EDP01. This is working fine if S_SDQ node will come in source XML. Basically D_67,D_67_2 represents Store Nos and D_380,D_380_2 represents Qty.
In the customer given EDI file, Price change also comes for Line items. It may comes in the file middle also. When Price Change come, the node S_SDQ will not come in G_SPOC but where as S_CTP will come. This contains Price Change in the field D_212.
The indicator whether QD (Qty Discount), QI (Qty Increase), PC (Price change), AI (Additonal Increase) is stored in the fild D_670.
In our logic in mapping, we create E1EDP01 based on the existance of D_67,D_67_2... . But, for PC (Price Change) we created special node E1EDP01 at the end (after all D_67,D_67_2 ) by checking the condition whether D_670 = 'PC'. This is also working fine when 'PC' comes in last G_POC of source XML. But, when it will come in middle of G_SPOC, mapping is only executed for first 3 GPOC (for Example, QD,QI,PC) and it ignored the last one AI. (Because this is generated based on D_67 under S_SDQ again).
The problem is we think that the system does not go back and execute the mapping for AI based on D_67.
It executes mapping only in order.
So, How will we solve this problem, friends? The requirements is we have to do this thru Graphical Mapping only.
We tried sever possibilites, but not worked out.
Kindly help me friends to solve this issue.
Thanking you.
Kind Regards,
Jeg P

If possible, please share me more detailed steps about how to connect the
Lotus notes and SSIS ODBC in the VS2010.
In addition, could you please share me some crash error message in this VS2010 when test this connection?
To check if this issue is related to this VS IDE, I suggest you could try to connect
Lotus notes and SSIS ODBC on other machine and then check if you still get this issue.
(1) If you still get this crash issue, I assume that this issue is related to this connection
Lotus notes and SSIS ODBC.
(2) If you did not get same error message, I suggest you could try to restart your machine and then open this VS2010 as Admin on your local machine and then connect it check this issue again.
Please try to close the firewall software on some other progress from this Task Manager and then check this issue.
In addition, I suggest you could try to use this process monitor tool to check which process running when you test this connect.

Link to download and choose save target as...

How do i creat a link where when the user click on it, it
will download the file and give the option to choose save target
as..

Thanks Walt.
so for your pc to open a dialog box asking you if you want to
save that file as a target ... when you click in a link that file
should be diferent then standards pdf, gif, jpg, etc...????
But in some pages for example the video is playing and bellow
there is one link saying click here to download and choose save
target as...
that is what i want to do and still didnt understand. I know
if the user has a realplayer for example, the realplayer can give
already the option to do it. but those that dont have a
realplayer...
is it making any sense...

Data Cache and Generic Cache

Hello,
According to this document,
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B16240_01/doc/apirefs.102/e12639/chapter1.htm#CIAEFHFB
I see there are two cache system in Oracle BI Server, "Data Cache" and "Generic Cache".
What is the difference between these two kinds of cache ?
Thanks.

Hi user611881,
I'll try to explain the two cache types here, but if someone can better phrase it than myself, by all means, step up.
Data Cache:
The OBIEE BI Server will cache the result set of SQL that is executed. These cached results are records and if OBIEE sees another report requesting the same record set that it already has in cache, it will go straight to the cache version instead of re-issuing the SQL
Generic Cache:
The generic cache is the presentation server cache. This has to do with the caching of particular request. If the BI Server detects a cached version of a request, it will get the request directly from the cache and not even go down to check for the cached record set.
This is how they function. Assume you have report A with record set 1 and there's no data in either cache.
You run Report A
1) Presentation Service checks if the Request is in the generic cache.
2) This check fails.
3) Presentation service issues logical SQL query to BI Server
4) BI Server checks if there is any record set matching the logical query in the cache
5) This check fails.
6) BI Server issues the physical SQL
7) BI Server caches the result set
8) Presentation service gets result set and formats the data
9) Presentation service caches presentation results
10) Report A is displayed
That is my understanding of the Data and Generic Caches.
Good luck and if you found this post useful, please award points!
Best regards,
-Joe
