How to import metadata into EPMA application by using ODI

Hi All,
1.Can you tell anyone, how to import metadata into EPMA application by using ODI. Detailed steps with screen shots will be appreciated.
2. What was the interface tables. How the interface tables will be useful while importing metadata into EPMA application (Detailed steps with screen shots will be appreciated.). And tell me the interface tables structure and work process. give me the clear idea bout interface tables. I don't know anything about interface tables.
3.Which method(either using ODI or Interface tables) is optimized/bestcase for importing metadata into EPMA application.
My database is Oracle 10g and I am using Planning 9.3.1.
Thanks in advance.
Thanks And Regards,
Bhagya Lakshmi.

Hi,
Answer to your questions
1. You can't import metadata directly into EPMA using ODI, the only option is use the EPMA interface tables which is your question 2.
2. Interface tables are just a structure of database tables which you populate with metadata and then this is pushed into EPMA, the structure of the tables takes a while to get an understanding of. The best place to start would be the documentation :- http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10530_01/doc/epm.931/bpma_admin.pdf
3. As explained in question 1 you can't use ODI directly to import metadata into EPMA but with a lot of hard work and effort you could probably populate interface tables from EPMA, though I must admit I am not a fan of the interface tables because I don't think they were designed with simplicity and ease of use in mind.

  • Loading metadata into EPMA applications using Interface tables-Automation

    Hi,
    I am loading the metadata into epma applications using interface tables as ODI dont perit to load metadata into epma applications. Is there any way of using ODI and interface tables together to load the metadata
    This process also need to be automated.

    Hi,
    It is certainly possible and has be done, though there is not anything available that will do it for you, you will have to put in some effort learning the structure of the interface tables, then build interfaces and then a package in ODI to streamline the process.

  • How to Import Metadata into another projec

    I am using OWB 10.2. Is there a way to specify which project you want the meta data to be imported to? For instance, I have projectA and Project B. I want to import the meta data into project B. Is this possible?

    I think that idea of user533778 (renaming projects) should work.
    But with my note:
    1) export project A
    2) rename project A to A1
    3) rename project B to A
    4) import project from file (and don't forget set importing option!!!)
    5) rename projects backward (A->B, A1->A)
    Try to set import options:
    - "Import option" to "Update metadata (replace existing objects and create new metadata)"
    - "Match by" to "Names"

  • Error while Importing Metadata into DAC Repository

    Hi,
    After the successful first time login into DAC and creating repository, when I try to import metadata into DAC repository.
    DAC > Tools > DAC Repository Management > Import
    I don't see any Applications listed under "Application List"
    Can anybody suggest the troubleshooting steps for this?
    Regards,
    Jitendra

    If this is the first time that you are importing make sure that the directory you are importing from is like this -
    C:\OBIEE\OracleBI\DAC\export
    If this is not the first time then
    Can you go inside the following directory
    C:\OBIEE\OracleBI\DAC\log
    and check for export.log - Look for Applications Section, if you have any application then you had exported it and you should see it under the applications tab when importing otherwise you don't !!Since its an xml file that is generated i believe you have not exported by selecting the applications yo want and that is your problem.
    Hope this helps !!

    If the call interface is OCI, enter a full connect string or a net service name from the tnsnames.ora file you set up within the Oracle Business Intelligence environment, in ORACLE_HOME/network/admin.
    If you are using a native interface for a different database, enter the name of the database for that system.
    If the call interface is ODBC, the data source name field displays a list containing all the User and System DSNs defined for ODBC on the local computer. Select the correct one for the data source to which you want connect.
    If it is helpful, please mark as correct or helpful

    If you want to embed videos in your muse site, without using a service like youtube or vimeo, then you will need to manually upload the video files on the server and use them via the video tag available in html5, HTML5 Video
    To insert the video tags in your muse pages, you will need to use the 'Object -> Insert HTML' option.
    Since this option is not available in Muse, out of the box, I will recommend that you post this on our ideas section over here, https://forums.adobe.com/community/muse/ideas, and let our devs team know of this requirement.

  • My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contact to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone

    My i phone was stolen and now I need to upload my contacts to my i cloud from my I tunes...any ideas how to import contacts into i cloud, with either i tunes or with old iphone?

    If you have the contacts on the phone you can sync the phone to the computer. The contacts should then show in address book. At this point you can sync the address book data to iCloud. You have to make sure the iCloud account is setup on the computer and this will not work unless the computer is running 10.7.2 of course. There are other ways to add the contacts to iCloud like through the phone but the phone must be running iOS5. If it is you can simply add the cloud account to the phone and toggle the contacts slider. You will get a prompt to keep or delete the contact data. Of course you keep. Then you will get a prompt to merge at which point you do. This should merge the contacts on the phone with iCloud. Hope this helps.

  • How to import Photos into Active Directory

    Hi -
    IT Director asked me to import employees pictures into Active Directory so that we can use them in Outlook, SharePoint, Lync etc.
    Do you know how to import pictures into Active Directory?

    Thumbnailphoto Attribute in active directory is responsible for adding photos to Active directory.
    By Default Replication of this attribute will be disabled to Global catalog server. To make use of this facility we will have to enable replication of this attribute to Global Catalog. ( To accomplish this you will have to edit the schema using Active directory
    schema snap in).
    Refer Below link which explains about enabling the replication of Thumbnailphoto attribute to Global catalog.

    How to remove the uploaded photos?
    Either You can edit the Thumbnailphoto attribute using ADSIedit and remove the entry which is assocaited with Thumbnailphoto attribute.
    Or,
    Try this.
    The Import-RecipientDataProperty and Export-RecipientDataProperty cmdlets allow you to import and export the photo blob to and from
    thumbnailPhoto attribute, but there's no Remove-RecipientDataProperty cmdlet to remove it. You can use the
    RemovePicture switch of Set-Mailbox cmdlet to remove a user's photo. For example:
    Set-Mailbox "Bharat Suneja" -RemovePicture

  • How to import DLU into CCM

    Hi everyone
         I am a voice amatuer, so who can tell me how to import DLU into CCM. I never did it. please tell me the detail step.
    Thanks

    Hi
    In general:
    1) You receive an 11-digit PAK code from Cisco.
    2) Go to www.cisco.com/go/license, and register the PAK code. For this you need your CCM licensing MAC address; one way to find this is go to CCMAdmin (ccmpublisher/ccmadmin), log in, go to System/Licensing/Upload License, then view an existing license to see what the 'host' part refers to. Another is to go to ccmpublisher/cmplatform, log in, and go to Show/Network.
    3) You receive a .lic file from Cisco via email
    4) Log into the CCM Publisher at ccmpublisherip/ccmadmin
    5) Go to system/licensing/Upload License and upload your file
    Regards
