How to use the SCOM 2012 Web Reporting page

Hello all-
   We are on SCOM 2012 SP1. I just have a general question about reporting. I know there is a "Reporting" tab in the real, locally installed, SCOM Operations Console software. That part I get. I see that there
are many pre-made reports the for me to run. For example under Microsoft Server 2008 Operating System (Monitoring) folder there is a
Performance History report. When I double click on it, it takes me to the report window where I can click
Add Object and add a server and then click
Run.
This is pretty simple in concept.   BUT very few people at my company have the full Operations Console installed on their machine. And as I'm sure you know, the SCOM Web Console does not have a Reporting Tab. So they have to use the
SCOM Reporting website to run such reports. I found that you can get to this page at the url:
http://<reporting server>/Reports
This does bring up the Reporting console. On the list I do see a Report.Windows.Server.2008.PerformanceHistory listed. So this surely seems to be the equivalent from my screenshot above.   However, it's not even close to user friendly like
the Reporting area in the SCOM operations console software. There's multiple fields at the top. All of which are required, and almost none of which have dropbox or other ways to help you fill them in. I have no idea what to put into these boxes or the format
to use.
What am I missing here? Is there a more user friendly interface anywhere? In an ideal world, I'd really love to have a user interface where I can post the links to a few popular reports, like CPU and Disk Space for example. Then ideally
all the user would have to do is select their servers and the time frame and that's all.   Which really is what you do in the Operations Console software.   So isn't is it that easy in the web reporting tool? Is there a guide or how-to
section somewhere I'm missing? Or just a more friendly looking way to get at this information?

Well, my first screen shot above is squished, so you really can't see it. But what I'm saying is that the same report in the SCOM software has the level of configuration I want on it.   It allows you to pick the date range and add objects
to it, then you can click on Run.     However when I access the same report on the reporting console, it has all these extra fields. None of which I know how to fill in properly.
I would ultimately like my customers to be able to do exactly that in the web version. Pick their server and their date range and run it.   There are not likely going to be too many reports like you're mentioning which I can completely configure
before hand, so they just click on the link to have it run. Most times I'd like my users to at least be able to select a server name.
Any idea how I would simplify the web version of the report? Or why they look so very different?

SQL version could not be verified error while installing the SCOM 2012 R2 reporting component

I have the below SCOM server roles in my SCOM 2012 R2 set up
1) All servers with Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, MS - SCOM1, DB & DW - DB1, Reporting Server - DB2
2) All the DB servers with SQL 2012 SP1
3) Windows firewall is turned off on all the servers.
4) Success fully installed all the components except SCOM reporting.
While installing the SCOM 2012 R2 reporting component on DB2 ( Iam running this set up on the server where I instllaed the SQL DB engine and reportin services in Native mode. Configured the SQL reporting database and reporting URLs successfully in SQL reporting
configuration manager) getting the below error in the Rporting server instance page. Kindly advise.
I ran mofcomp.exe and there is no firewall restrictions. My account also has DB owner & sysadmin permissions.
Also tried re installing the SQL on Reporting server.
"The installed version of SQL Server could not be verified or is not supported. Verify that the computer and the installed version of SQL Server meet the minimum requirements for installation, and that the firewall settings are correct. See the Supported
Configurations document for further information".

Hi,
As far as I know, after installing SSRS, we don't need to configure the database and reporting URLs manully. When we install the reporting service for SCOM, it will configure those automatically.
If possible, you may re-install SSRS and then install SCOM reporting service.

How to use linked filters in webi reports.

Hii.. all
I want to know how can i use related or linked filters in webi reports.
that means if i am using three diff filters as f1 for Zone f2 for location and f3 for sales office
then if have selected a zone from the zone filter (for ex west) then the location filter should show only the locations which comes under that zone and the third filter should show only those sales offices which comes under the selected location from the filter..
Plz help..
thanks

hi Neeraj,
1. In Universe Take Storename, city, State, region, Country objects
2. Double click on Storename, go to properties tab and click on edit button. Query panel will open.
3. Double click on city and click on sort button, double click on state and sort it, double click on region and sort it, double click on Country and sort it.
4. If you want to keep any condition like particular country, you can drag country object in to the Conditions pane. If not leave it empty.
5.Click on Save and close button. Save the universe and export it.
6. In webI drag and drop the Storename object and click on 'Add Quick Filter' button. Now all the columns you included in the list of values appear in the Add Quick Filter dialog box.
Now You can select the values from here and run the query. you will get the result.
One more way is there using cascading LOVs
1. Go to Tools menu > List of values > Create Cascading list of values.
2. Double click on Country, Region, State, City and Storename. Close it.
3. Save and export the universe.
4. In webi drag and drop the objects in result objects pane, apply query filter and run the query.
Now you will get the result.

How to use the procedure column in reports

Hi all
How to call the procedure in reports as source.. If possible how to use columns of procedure in the layout column of report????

Hi,
Your query is not clear.
1. In subject are you asking total column.
A. Edit pivot view and go to Rows and click Total BY option here you can find option like (none,before,after) the you can select after it will display total all culms.
2. I want use the columnC in columnD ? -- Am not understand.
A. What my understand is you want to see the report only C and D values only.
If it is correct we can apply filter in report level click column filed and apply not equal to A then it will show only C and D only.
If it is wrong pleas post me correct one with example. Will try to help out this.
I am not sure this is what your looking so far.
Award points it is useful.

How to use the data from 1 report in another report?

Hello All
I have a data model like the following:
Physical and logical join the same as below:
Dim1 <--- Fact 1 ---> Dim2 <-- Fact 2 --> Dim3
Now I have 1 report (Report A) which is out of Dim1 <--- Fact 1 ---> Dim2
and another report (Report B) which is out of Dim2 <-- Fact 2 --> Dim3
Now the measure from report A needs to be divided by the measure from Report B.
What's the best way to achieve this?
Thanks in advance

Hello
Thank you for the reply. Actually, this approach you mentioned may not work. I forgot to mention, that although the data model was simple, but for each report, the filtering conditions were quite complicated.
So in other words, after all of the complex filtering, aggregation, I was finally able to get the correct number from report 1, which is summed and displayed, and it's only 1 row. Report 2's values are summed the filtered differently, but it returns multiple values.
So now, I wish I can just take what I can visually see from report 1 in the dashboard and divide it with each row of report 2 in the dashboard. Is there a way to do this kind of thing in 11G?
Thanks

How to use the input entered in report parameters form & use it in a field in a report parameter.

Hi, I'am creating a new report, which is a combination of 'form_letter & tabular' style.
I have also created a Report Parameter with 2 inputs, that is 'to_date' & 'from_date'.
The value that will be entered in 'to_date' & 'from_date' in the parameter_form, must get displayed in the report.
So for this, I created a field for 'to_date' & added code for it in pl/sql editor.
code is as below:
function F_TO_DATEFormatTrigger return boolean is
f_to_date date;
begin
f_to_date := :PF_P_TO_DATE; // ASSIGNING VALUE TO FIELD ( f_to_date) FROM INPUT OF REPORT PARAMETER (PF_P_TO_DATE) .
return (f_to_date);
end;
BUT I'M GETTING ERROR " REP-0730 THE FOLLOWING BIND VARIABLE IS NOT DEFINED: PF_P_TO_DATE.
I tried to decode the error, but I think the problem is different. (The above code works only if "PF_P_TO_DATE" was a part of query statement, that is one of the columns in database, but PF_P_TO_DATE is a parameter). So can anybody please help me with how can I take the value from parameter input & display it on the field of the report?
Thank You.

Hi Vijetha,
Create a formula column and return the date you need and asign the formula column to a field in paper layout.
here is the example query
function CF_to_dateFormula return Date is
begin
return (:to_date); -------:to_date is that you get as a parameter
end;
Hope this will help

How to use the 3of9 font in report in concurrent program

Dear All,
I have developed a report in 6i, and selected the font 3of9.ttf in Report Builder, which is a Barcode type font. but when i register the report as concurrent program and run the report concurrent program it is not showing me the field value in barcode format.
Then i tried to ftp the font to unix server at location "$OA_JRE_TOP/jre/lib/fonts/3of9000.ttf" also created the xdo.cfg file at "$OA_JRE_TOP/lib" folder.
But still i am not getting the expected result.
Can anyone help me out to resolve this issue?
Thanks & Regards,
CAK

You can't just copy a Windows font to Unix. You need specific Unix installation steps. That I know, for the rest I am unfamiliar with Unix fonts.

JNI - How to use the error reporting mechanism?

I've developed a C++ DLL which is loaded from a commercial Win32 application (not written by me) as a plug-in for external calculations. On its initialization the C++ DLL launches the Java VM via the JNI invocation interface. When the DLL functions are called by the application, they forward the calls to Java objects inside the Java VM, again via JNI invocation interface.
This works well, but I have encountered a weird error.
From Java I open a JFrame containing a JTextArea as small console for debug output messages. If I turn output to this debug console off (my printToConsole routine checks whether a boolean flag is set), the string concatenation operator may lead to a crash of the Java VM.
For example, if in one of the Java functions called from the
DLL via JNI invocation interface the following is the first statement,
it leads to a crash of the Java VM and the application that loaded the C++ proxy DLL.
String test=""+Math.random(); // String test not used later
Interestingly, if I comment this statement out, the Java code works fine WITHOUT any crash. I've already thought about potential races and synchronization issues in my code, but I don't see where this is the case. And the string concatenation error fails as well, if I insert sleep() statements in front of it and at other places in the code. However, if I turn on log messages printed to my JFrame debug console (containing a JTextArea), the String concatenation works without problems.
So maybe the JNI interface has a bug and affects the Java VM; I don't see where my JNI code is wrong.
One problem is that I do not get any stdout output, as the C++ proxy DLL is loaded by the Windows application, even if I start the Windows application from the DOS command line (under Windows).
Does anyone know how to use the error reporting mechanism?
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/vm/error-handling.html
Is it possible that the JVM, when it crashes, writes debug information about the crash into a file instead of stdout/stderr?
My C++ proxy DLL was compiled in debug mode, but the commercial application (which loaded the DLL) is very likely not.
I do not know hot to find the reason why the String concatenation fails inside the Java function called from the C++ DLL via JNI.

Yes, I've initially thought about errors in the C++ code too. But the C++ code is actually very simple and short. It doesn't allocate anything on the C++ side. It allocates a couple of ByteBuffers inside the Java VM however via JNI invocation interface calls of env->NewDirectByteBuffer(). The native memory regions accessed via the ByteBuffers are allocated not by my own C++ code, but by the program that calls my DLL (the program is Metastock).
The interesting thing is that everything works fine if output to my debug console is enabled, which means that in the Java print routine getConsoleLoggingState() returns true and text is appended to the jTextArea.
static synchronized void print(String str)
{ MetaStockMonitor mMon=getInstance();
if ( mMon.getFileLoggingState() && mMon.logFileWriter!=null) {
mMon.logFileWriter.print(str);
mMon.logFileWriter.flush();
if ( mMon.getConsoleLoggingState() ) {
mMon.jTextArea1.append(str);
Only if output to the JTextArea is turned off (ie. getConsoleLoggingState()==false), the crash happens when the FIRST statement in the Java routine called via JNI invocation interface is a (useless) String concatenation operation, as described above.
String test=""+Math.random(); // String test not used later
Moreover, the crash happens BEFORE the allocated ByteBuffer objects are accessed in the Java code. But again, if console output is turned on, it works stable. If console output is turned off, it works when the (useless) String concatenation operation is removed in the Java routine called from C++.
I've already thought about potential races (regarding multiple threads), but this can be ruled out in my case. It almost appears as if the JVM can have problems when called by the invocation interface (I tested it with Java 1.4.2 b28).
All the calls between C++ and Java go ALWAYS in the direction from C++ code to Java. Unfortunately, there is no special JRE version with extensive logging capabilities to facilitate debugging. And the problem is not easily reproducible either.

How to find the list of Queries/Reports which are using Exceptional Aggregation in SAP BI?

Hi All,
We are interested to know how to find the list of Queries/ Reports which are using Exceptional aggregation in SAP BI.
Please let us know is there any table's to check the list of reports using Exceptional Aggregation in SAP BI.

Hi,
Here you go..
1) Go to table RSZCALC and get list of ELTUID where AGGREXC is not INITIAL and AGGRCHA is not initial; now you get only exception aggregation set based on some chars. Also you can further add STEPNR = 1 since your intention is just to get query name , not the calculation details; this will reduce number of entries to lookup and save DB time for next steps.
Here you will get list of exception aggregation UUID numbers from which you can get properties from RSZELTDIR.
2) Pass list of RSZCALC-ELTUID to table RSZELTXREF - TELTUID and get list of RSZELTXREF -SELTUID - this table stores query to it's elements maping kind.
3) Now again pass RSZELTXREF - SELTUID into same table but into different field RSZELTZREF - TELTUID and get RSZELTXREF - SELTUID
This step you get query reference sheet or column or query general UUID for next step.
4) Pass list of RSZELTXREF - SELTUID into RSZELTDIR - ELTUID with DEFTP as 'REP'. Now you get list of query names in RSZELTDIR - MAPNAME and description in TXTLG.
Note: you can also get the reference chars used for exception aggregation from RSZCALC - AGGRCHA field.
Hope this helps.
Please keep in mind, it might take more time depends on how many query elements you have in the system...

How to deploy the Oracle Forms and Reports 10g in Web?

Currently I am working in Oracle forms & Reports conversion project (6i to 10g).
As of now 6i forms working as a standalone application. After migrated it to 10g, I need to deploy the forms and reports in web.
Any one know how to deploy the Oracle forms and Reports in web?
Please help me out. Thanks in advance.
Vimal

Hello Frank,
for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
Best regards,

How to use the set functions effectively in webi ,please let me know with detail

how to use the set functions effectively in webi ,please let me know with detail

Hi,
we use use set functions on heirarchies with aggregate functions mostly .
If you include member_set, Min returns the minimum value of the aggregated data for all members in the member set.
Member_set can include multiple sets separated by semicolons (;).
The list of member sets must be enclosed in {}.
If the member set expression does not specify a precise member or node, the hierarchy referenced must be present in the table, then the member set expression references the current member in the hierarchy in the table. If the hierarchy is not in the table, the function returns the message #MULTIVALUE.
Eg .
1)     Ancestor
=Sum([YTD] ; {Ancestor([Test Hierarchy];2)})
2)     IsLeaf
=[Test Hierarchy].IsLeaf
You can use this function when you want to show your Measure only at lower level .
3)     .Depth
=[Test Hierarchy].Depth
This is also function used with hierarchy to find Level of Members .
