How to use incremental data load in OWB? can CDC be used?

hi,
i am using oracle 10g relese 2 and OWB 10g relese 1
i want know how can i implement incremental data load in OWB?
is it having such implicit feature in OWB tool like informatica?
can i use CDC concept for this/ is it viable and compatible with my envoirnment?
what could be other possible ways?

Hi ,
As such the current version of OWB does not provide the functionality to directly use CDC feature available. You have to come up with your own strategy for incremental loading. Like, try to use the Update Dates if available on your source systems or use CDC packages to pick the changed data from your source systems.

How to automate the data load process using data load file & task Scheduler

Hi,
I am doing Automated Process to load the data in Hyperion Planning application with the help of data_Load.bat file & Task Scheduler.
I have created Data_Load.bat file but rest of the process i am unable complete.
So could you help me , how to automate the data load process using Data_load.bat file & task Scheduler or what are the rest of the file is require to achieve this.
Thanks

To follow up on your question are you using the maxl scripts for the dataload?
If so I have seen and issue within the batch (ex: load_data.bat) that if you do not have the full maxl script path with a batch when running it through event task scheduler the task will work but the log and/ or error file will not be created. Meaning the batch claims it ran from the task scheduler although it didn't do what you needed it to.
If you are using maxl use this as the batch
"essmsh C:\data\DataLoad.mxl" Or you can also use the full path for the maxl either way works. The only reason I would think that the maxl may then not work is if you do not have the batch updated to call on all the maxl PATH changes or if you need to update your environment variables to correct the essmsh command to work in a command prompt.

Essbase 7.1 - Incremental data load in ASO

Hi,
Is there incremental data loading feature in ASO version 7.1? Let's say, I've the following data in ASO cube
P1 G1 A1 100
Now, I get the following 2 rows as per the incremental data from relational source:
P1 G1 A1 200
P2 G1 A1 300
So, once I load these rows using rule file with override existing values option, will I've the following dataset in ASO:
P1 G1 A1 200
P2 G1 A1 300
I know there is data load buffer concept in ASO 7.1. And this is the inly way to improve data load performance. But just wanted to check if we can implement incremental loading in ASO or not.
And one more thing, Can 2 load rules run in parallel to load data in ASO cubes? As per my understanding, when we start loading data, the cube is locked for any other insert/update. Pls correct me if I'm wrong!
Thanks!

Hi,
I think the features such as incremental data loads were available from version 9.3.1
In the whats new for Essbase 9.3.1 it contains
Incrementally Loading Data into Aggregate Storage Databases
The aggregate storage database model has been enhanced with the following features:
l An aggregate storage database can contain multiple slices of data.
l Incremental data loads complete in a length of time that is proportional to the size of the
incremental data.
l You can merge all incremental data slices into the main database slice or merge all
incremental data slices into a single data slice while leaving the main database slice
unchanged.
l Multiple data load buffers can exist on a single aggregate storage database. To save time, you
can load data into multiple data load buffers at the same time.
l You can atomically replace the contents of a database or the contents of all incremental data
slices.
l You can control the share of resources that a load buffer is allowed to use and set properties
that determine how missing and zero values, and duplicate values, in the data sources are
processed.

Incremental Data load in SSM 7.0

Hello all,
I once raised a thread in SDN which says how to automate data load into SSM 7.0.
Periodic data load for a model in SSM
Now my new requirement is not to upload the whole data again , but only the new data (data after the previous data load) . Is there a way to do the incremental data load in SSM 7.0 ? Loading the whole of the fact data again and again will take a hit on the performance of the SSM system. Is there a work around in case there is no solution ?
Thanks
Vijay

Vijay,
In your PAS model you can build a procedure to remove data and then load that data to the correct time period.
In PAS, to remove data but not the variable definitions from the database:
Removing data for a particular variable
REMOVE DATA SALES
or if there were particular areas only within
SELECT product P1
SELECT customer C1
REMOVE SELECTED SALES
or remove all data
REMOVE DATA * SURE
or just a time period
REMOVE DATA SALES BEFORE Jan 2008
Then you would construct or modify your Load Procedure to load the data for the new period
SET PERIOD {date range}
Regards.

How to find the data loaded from r/3 to bw

hi
how to find the data loaded from r/3 to bw is correct . i am not able to find which feild in the query is connected to which feild in the r/3 . where i am geting the data from r/3 . is there any process to find which feild and table the data is comming from . plz help
thanks in advance to u all

Hi Veda ... the mapping between R/3 fields and BW InfoObjects should take place in Transfer Rules. Other transformation could take place in Update Rule.
So you could proceed this way: look at InfoProvider Data Model and see if the Query does perform any calculation (even with Virtual keyfigures / chars). Than go back to Update Rules and search for other calculation / transformation. At least there are Tranfer Rule and eventually DataSource / Extraction Enhancements.
As you can easily get there are many points where you have to look for ... it's a quite complex work but very usefull.
Once you will have identified all mappings / transfromation see if BW data matchs R/3 (considering calculations ...)
Good job

Incremental Data loading in ASO 7.1

HI,
As per the 7.1 essbase dbag
"Data values are cleared each time the outline is changed structurally. Therefore, incremental data loads are supported
only for outlines that do not change (for example, logistics analysis applications)."
That means we can have the incremental loading for ASO in 7.1 for the outline which doesn't change structurally. Now what does it mean by the outline which changes structurally? If we add a level 0 member in any dimension, does it mean structrual change to that outline?
It also syas that adding Accounts/Time member doesn't clear out the data. Only adding/deleting/moving standard dimension member will clear out the data. I'm totally confused here. Can anyone pls explain me?
The following actions cause Analytic Services to restructure the outline and clear all data:
● Add, delete, or move a standard dimension member
● Add, delete, or move a standard dimension
● Add, delete, or move an attribute dimension
● Add a formula to a level 0 member
● Delete a formula from a level 0 member
Edited by: user3934567 on Jan 14, 2009 10:47 PM

Adding a Level 0 member is generally, if not always, considered to be a structural change to the outline. I'm not sure if I've tried to add a member to Accounts and see if the data is retained. This may be true because by definition, the Accounts dimension in an ASO cube is a dynamic (versus Stored) hierarchy. And perhaps since the Time dimension in ASO databases in 7.x is the "compression" dimension, there is some sort of special rule about being able to add to it -- although I can't say that I ever need to edit the Time dimension (I have a separate Years dimension). I have been able to modify formulas on ASO outlines without losing the data -- which seems consistent with your bullet points below. I have also been able to move around and change Attribute dimension members (which I would guess is generally considered a non-structural change), and change aliases without losing all my data.
In general I just assume that I'm going to lose my ASO data. However, all of my ASO outlines are generated through EIS and I load to a test server first. If you're in doubt about losing the data -- try it in test/dev. And if you don't have test/dev, maybe that should be a priority. :) Hope this helps -- Jason.

How to delete the data loaded into MySQL target table using Scripts

Hi Experts
I created a Job with a validation transformation. If the Validation was failed the data passed the validation will be loaded into Pass table and the data failed will be loaded into failed table.
My requirement was if the data was loaded into Failed database table then i have to delete the data loaded into the Passed table using Script.
But in the script i have written the code as
sql('database','delete from <tablename>');
but as it is an SQL Query execution it is rising exception for the query.
How can i delete the data loaded into MySQL Target table using scripts.
Please guide me for this error
Thanks in Advance
PrasannaKumar

Hi Dirk Venken
I got the Solution, the mistake i did was the query is not correct regarding MySQL.
sql('MySQL', 'truncate world.customer_salesfact_details')
error query
sql('MySQL', 'delete table world.customer_salesfact_details')
Thanks for your concern

How to best reduce data load on MAC due to duplicate Adobe files?

I just got hired at a small business. I don't have a lot of experience with MACs, so I need to know some best practices here.
I am working with CS3, Ai, Ps, Id, and later, Dw.
It's a magazine publishing company. I have it organizing so each magazine has its folder, and I want to have an "old editions" and a "working edition" folders. Within each, I want to break it down into "Ads this issue", "Links", and "stories".
The Ads and Links are where I'm concerned. I want to have a copy of each ad's file within that folder, and a copy of all the other files its linked to, so that if the original ads/images get moved, the links won't be disturbed.
I'm wondering if there is a way to do this without bogging down the machine's HD with duplicates of really large files. The machine moves slow enough as it is.
I've theorized that I could:
A) keep the Main "Ads" folder along with the subfolders compressed, and the "old editions" compressed, and have a regular copy in the working folder only. This also works because the ads get edited for different editions sometimes.
or
B) Is there a way to do this with Aliases? Being unfamiliar with alias, or even shortcuts, because I haven't worked in an actual production environment yet, I don't know they functionality of linking alias into an ID file. I read a couple of previous posts and the outlook isn't very good for it.
or
C) Just place a PDF (or whatever you guys think is the best quality preserving filetype) in with the magazine itself? Then each company could have its own ad folder with all the rest of the files...
What do you all think? If you can even link me to a post that goes into further detail on which option you think is best, or if you have a different solution, that would be wonderful. I am open to answers.
I want to be sure to leave a cleaner computer/work environment then the last few punks who were here... That's my "best practice". Documentation and file organization got drilled into me at Uni.

Sorry, I am overcaffienated today, this response is kind of long.
"Data load?" Do you mean that:
a) handling lots of large files is too much for your computer to handle, or
b) simply having lots of large files on your hard drive (even if they are not currently in use) slows your computer down?
Because b) is pretty much impossible, unless you are almost out of space on your system drive. Which can be ameliorated by... buying another drive.
I once set up an install of InDesign on a Mac for a friend of mine who is chipping away at a big-data math PhD. and who is sick to death of LaTeX. (Can't blame her, really.) Because we are both BSD nerds from way back, she wanted to do what you are suggesting - but instead of thinking about aliases, which you are correct to regard with dubiousness, she wanted to do it with hardlinks. Which worked, more or less. She liked it. Seemed like overkill to me.
I suspect that this is because she is a highfalutin' academic whereas I am a production wonk in a business. I have to compare the cost of my time resolving a broken-link issue due to a complicated archiving scheme versus Just Buying Another Drive. Having clocked myself on solving problems induced by complicated archival schemes (or failure of overworked project managers to correctly follow the rules for same) I know that it doesn't take many hours of my work invested in combing through archives or rebuilding lost image files to equal Another Drive that I can go out and Just Buy.
If you set up a reasonable method of file organization, and document it clearly, then you have already saved your organization (and your successors!) significant amounts of time and cash. Hard drive space is cheap. Don't spend your time on figuring out a way to save a few terabytes here and there. In fact, what I'd suggest for you is to try to figure out how many terabytes you've already spent on this question, by figuring out todays ratio of easily purchaseable reliable external hard drives to your unit of preferred currency, then figuring out how many hours you've already spent on the question.
The only reason I can make this argument is that price-per-unit-of-magnetic-data-storage has, with remarkablly few exceptions, been constantly plummeting for decades, while the space requirements for documentation have been going up comparatively slowly. If you need a faster computer to do your job more efficiently, then price out a SSD drive for your OS and applications and jobs-on-deck, and then show your higher-ups the math that proves that the SSD pays for itself in your saved time within n weeks. My gut feeling these days is that, unless you are seriously underpaid, n is between two and six.
Finally: I didn't really address your suggested possibilities. Procedure C (placing PDFs) usually works, but you do need to figure out how to make PDFs in such a way as to ensure they play nicely with your print method. Procedure A (compress stuff you don't need anymore) probably works okay, but I hope that you have some sort of command-line scripting ability to be able to quickly route stuff into and out of archives.

Incremental Data Load

Hi, I am trying to load data to a 6.5 Application. In the file I have a number of lines of data with the exact same members but different data. We have to convert products that used to roll up to a total to only one member. For example ABC Total ABC DEF GHI Now all the data in DFE and GHI will need to be accumulated in ABC. I tried the "Add to Existing Values" in the data load rule, but that seems to only work with data that is there before the load. Any thoughts? I really appreciate it.

Never Mind! I am sorry, I had a mistake in my load rule. I tried to delete the prior post but could not figure out how. Very Sorry.

How to Improve large data loads ?

Hello Gurus,
Large data loads at my client long hours. I have tried using the recommedations from various blogs and SAP sites, for control parameters for DTP's and Infopackages. I need some viewpoints on what are the parameters that can be checked in the Oracle and Unix systems. I would also need some insight on:-
1) How to clear log files
2) How to clear any cached up memory in SAP BW.
3) Control parameters in Oracle and Unix for any improvements.
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I think those work should be performed by the BASIS guys.
2)U can delete the cache memory by using the Tcode : RSRT and then select the cache monitor and then delete.
Thanx & Regards,

How to configure once data load then trigerd or run ibot?

Hi Experts,
I have a one requirement,
1) Every day run one workflow( means data load into data warehouse)
2) After, ibot should be run and delivery to users.
3) We scheduled the workflows in DAC for every day morning.
Requirement:
Once data loaded, then IBot should be run and send to users dynamically (without scheduling).
If workflow failed, IBot won’t be delivered.
How to find out or configure once data load then trigerd or run ibot?
I am using obi 10g and informatica 8 and os xp.

Hi,
Below are the details for automating the OBIEE Scheduler.
Create a batch file or Sh file with following command
D:\OracleBI\server\Bin\saschinvoke -u Administrator/udrbiee007 -j 8
-u is username/Password for Scheduler (username/password that u given while configuration)
-j is a job id number when u create a ibot it will assign the new job number that can be identified from"Jobmanager"
Refer the below thread for more information.
iBot scheduling after ETL load
Or ,
What you the above also it will work but problem is we need specify the time like every day 6.30 am .
Note: The condition report is true then the report will be delivered at 6.30 pm only but the condition is false the report will not triggered.
I also implemented this but that is little bit different .
Hope this help's
Thanks

How to extract incremental data from SQL server to oracle tables in ODI

HI All,
In my ODI sql server is install.My Source is in SQL server and my target is in Oracle.
I need to create a interface mapping where i need to extract incremental data from sql server to oracle.
There is a datetime(with Timestamp) field in sql server .I need to pull incremental data based on dateime.
Example = tablename.DateTime > (select '1-jan-11' from dual) .....i am using this query but its not woking.the error is Invalid object name"dual".
We are not going to use Incremental in IKM and LKM.
Request you to please provide any suggestion ASAP.
Thanks,
Lony

You can do that via Variable.
In the interface mapping create a filter on Tablename.DateTime
and put the condition like this
Tablename.DateTime BETWEEN #VAR and in the variable use this query in refreshing tab with oracle schema
SELECT max(start_time)||' AND '||max(END_TIME)+1 from audit_table where ETL_JOB_CODE = '20'In the package call the above variable in refresh mode and then interface.
This way you will pass from the query between and condition date and pass to interface so that SQL Server fetches the data between those too range.
Note:- You might need to tweak the date format so that SQL Server can understand.
Hope this helps.

How to stop the data loads through process chains

I want to stop all the data loads to BI through Process chains where load happens periodic.
kindly suggest how can I proceed.

Hi,
Goto RSPC find your PC and double click on START then change the timings, i.e. give starting date is 01.01.9999 like that Save and ACtivate the PC, it won't start till 01.01.9999.

BI 7.0 data load issue: InfoPackage can only load data to PSA?

BI 7.0 backend extraction gurus,
We created a generic datasource on R3 and replicated it to our BI system, created an InfoSource, the Transformation from the datasource to the InfoSource, an ODS, the transformation from the InfoSource to the ODS.
After the transformation creation between the InfoSource and the ODS is done on this BI system, a new folder called "Data Transfer Process" is also created under this ODS in the InfoProvider view. In the Data Transfer Process, in the Extraction tab, picks 'Full' in the field Extraction Mode, in the Execute tab, there is a button 'Execute', click this button (note: so far we have not created InfoPackage yet) which sounds like to conduct the data load, but find there is no data available even if all the status show green (we do have a couple of records in the R3 table).
Then we tried to create an InfoPackage, in the Processing tab, find 'Only PSA' radio button is checked and all others like 'PSA and then into Data Targets (Package by Package)" are dimmed! In the Data Target tab, find the ODS as a target can't be selected! Also there are some new columns in this tab, 'Maintain Old Update Rule' is marked with red color 'X', under another column 'DTP(S) are active and load to this target', there is an inactive picture icon, that's weird since we have already activated the Data Transfer Process! Anyway, we started the data load in the InfoPackage, and the monitor shows the records are brought in, but since in the Process tab in the InfoPackage, 'Only PSA' radio button is checked with all others dimmed that there is no any data going to this ODS! Why in BI 7.0, 'Only PSA' radio button can be checked with others all dimmed?
Many new features with BI 7.0! Any one's idea/experience is greatly appreciate on how to load data in BI 7.0!

You dont have to select anything..
Once loaded to PSA in DTP you have the option of FULL or DELTA ,full loads all the data from PSA and DELTA loads only the last load of PSA.
