Importing cube views metadata

Hello,
I have a question about the data modeler "import > cube views metadata" feature:
It imports from an xml file. Is the definition of the xml schema available somewhere? My customers use a custom built repository for dimensional modeling. I'd like to generate the xml from this custom repository metadata so that I can import it into Data Modeler.
Thank you,
Beatriz.

Hello Beatriz,
I cannot point to xml schema definition. Cube Views is replaced by other product in DB2 9 Data warehouse edition. There were other products claiming support for that meta data format. You can try with them or with DB2 9 DWE.

  • Cube Viewer/Metadata problems.

    Hello,
    I was able to create cubes in OEM and display them using cube viewer on Friday. I booted up my machine Monday and I cannot view any cubes, not even the ones from the bibdemo example. I've done several metadata refreshes. The error message just shows me an empty box(with a red bell on it) with an OK button.
    I can view cubes on another database so I am thinking my metadata is fouled. Is there something else I can do other than the cwm2_olap_metadata_refresh.mr_refresh to re-establish the metadata?
    thanks in advance,

    I am using oracle 9iR2 (Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.2.1) on Windows 2000.

    I resolved this. I had to apply the utlrp.sql again (the step after the catpatch) and then follow that up with a metadata refresh (cwm2_olap_metadata_refresh.mr_refresh).

  • Strange error when start cube viewer

    Dear all,
    i have been installed the BIBdemo succesfully, and run the cube viewer, after that i create a cube on my schema and (by creating a collection from owb9.2 and executing it directly in the db from birdge,after that the cube viewer didn't work correctly for BIBdemo ,and error message is there is errors in the dimensions of my cube ,i didn't understatnd what the relation between the two schemas,my schema and bibdemo schema ,after that i dropped my cube from enterprise manager , and the error remains the same when iam tring to run the cube viewer for bibdeom cubes), please i need a cwm statments to clear any metadata for my cubes and dimensions.
    any help is so appreciated

    Just for the benefit of anybody running into similar surprising difficulties: it is, in my case, a sniffer-problem.
    For determining the client browser's java-vendor from the applet, I used an old trick that used to work pretty well. The relevant part is where the vendor is SUN, but a distinction must be made between SUN java on SUN machines and SUN-java in MSIE. This is done as follows:
         String s = System.getProperty("java.vendor");
         if (s.indexOf("Microsoft") != -1) setJavaVendor(MICROSOFT);
         else if (s.indexOf("Netscape") != -1) setJavaVendor(NETSCAPE);
         else if (s.indexOf("Sun") != -1) {
              try {
    // ***> ay, there's the rub:
                   getWindow().eval("window.statusbar.visible");
                   setJavaVendor(SUN);
              } catch (Exception e) {
                   setJavaVendor(SUNINIE);
         } else setJavaVendor(UNKNOWN);
    The point is that the java-error is correctly caught (so the end result is as desired), but not the Javascript error that is generated external to the applet by the eval-command. So that is what triggers that error-popup in MSIE6, which does not have any consequences apart from being a nuisance.
    Why older MSIE-versions don't seem to mind and ignore the error escapes me, and is not a very intersting question anyway. The thing is just to replace the "statusbar" test by something not involving Javascript.
    One more reason to avoid using javascript for such purposes anyway is that Apple cannot make heads or tails of livewire (applets tapping into javascript).

  • Cube viewer not  work

    i intall oracle 9201 on win2000
    but cube viewer doesn't work,
    who can tell me how to solve this problem?
    thanks .

    Please apply the RDBMS 9.2.0.2.1 or 9.2.0.3.0 patch set. This should fix your problem. Also, if you have changed any metadata in your cube, please be sure to execute cwm2_olap_metadata_refresh.mr_refresh.

  • Can I import and view from a camara

    I was reading on the new that there are a few ways to import pictures from my Canon G5 camera. The two most common are the Belkin compact flash reader, or the apple iPod camera connector (I think it is called). the thing that plugs into the ipod and the camera plugs in through the USB plug. Is there anyway to import and view the pictures in the field from the Canon G5, or do I just import them as data and have to go through the computer later. This would be on a 5G iPod. Has anyone had success doing this in the field yet.

    Am a new iPod owner myself, but as I understand it, you can view thumbnails or iPod screen size renderings of the photos loaded into the unit. Suspect the functionality will depend on why you need to look at them and the level of detail required for your field work.

  • MS SQL database needs to run mdx query to analysis services to retrieve data from a BPC 10 Netweaver cube(view only)

    We are in the process of migrating from BPC7 SP12 Microsoft sql server to BPC10 netweaver on a sql server with BW7.4 and need to integrate our home grown data warehouse which is on a Microsoft sql server.  The data warehouse currently connects to BPC7 using integration services/analysis services and runs mdx queries to analysis services to retrieve data from the BPC7 cube (view only).  Please provide documentation on how to create this same integration with our data warehouse using BPC10 netweaver on a sql server.

    When you were setting up your ODBC data source for
    the Text driver, did you click on the "Options"
    button? There's a lot of options in there that I
    didn't understand at first glance.Yes I clicked on the options button, but the only thing there is dealing with file extensions. I left it set to the default.
    I have since tried closing my connection after I insert a record, I then try executeQuery, but still no luck. Seems strange that I can write to the file but not read from it. If any thing I'd expect the opposite problem.
    I have also tried using the class "JoltReport" from the sun tutorial instead of my own with the same result.

  • How to import XMP-MP metadata into organizer

    I have a fairly large number of photos with face tag metadata.  Since Adobe is part of the working group that developed the XMP metadata standard, imagine my surprise to find out that Photoshop Elements 11 doesn't use it!
    Is there any external program you guys know about to import face tag metadata into the organizer?  I used Windows Photo Gallery to do the face tagging and it properly writes the metadata to the XMP fields.  Problem is the photoshop organizer doesn't read the XMP fields!  It's using it's own standard(?)
    We are talking thousands of photos here so re-tagging is just not an option.  Is there a way to get photoshop to import the tags and regions?
    Struggling User

    I think most of us who deal with large amounts of photos usually have a multi-application approach to things.  No one application does it all.  I crossed the 10,000 image point some time back and the thought of face tagging all that again makes me more than a little queasy!
    I looked at PSE 11's organizer and realized it was very close to what I want.  I'm going to use PSE for pixel editing anyway so it looks like an ideal one-size-fits-all application.  However, of course I now know PSE doesn't use tags in the same way as others.  So it's just a deal breaker plain and simple.
    Right now I use:
    Photo Gallery (formerly Window Live Photo Gallery) for organization and face tagging and subject tagging
    GeoSetter for location tagging by the way it recognizes the Microsoft face tag data so I can use the people tags to sort in that app too
    ExifTool for metadata manipulation where needed (camera data or other interesting info)Also note the ExifToolGUI (no longer maintained also recognizes the Microsoft face tag metadata)
    Photoshop Elements for pixel editing
    I use the face tags as keyword tags so you get a double benifit.  The big deal of course however is the face region tag.  Having a picture of many people and a separate list of keywords isn't helpful.  You only know that John Smith is in the photo somewhere but you don't know which person he is!  Like you said however, it's not important to everyone.
    I will keep researching this.  I'm betting someone has written an app to extract one set of data and make it available to another app.

  • Import/Export of Metadata Needed

    We need the ability to Import and Export metadata in CSV format or equivalent. Our office currently works with Extensis Portfolio which allows us to Import and Export large amounts of data so it can be taken into Excel and worked on, cleaned up, changed or whatever. We then reimport it back into the Portfolio catalog. It's very easy and very efficient. Would love to see something similar in Lightroom.

    Anton
    If you want to do this, I think the best route would be through hitting the back end database. You could use Excel formulae (the ampersand) to concatenate cell values and create a SQL statement that you run against the SQLite database. You would need to be decent at Excel, at SQL, and understand the database structure.
    Mature DAM programs often have features that allow users to map text file data to the program's fields, and professional-grade programs usually have scripting that allows you to roll your own data updating, which could include external sources.
    You might have a look at Portfolio and its 30 day trial. This has mapping, so you can get that text file into its database, and it can also be scripted from Excel VBA. It can then write that metadata directly into jpegs or tifs - no other formats.

    Patch/one-off 2323002 is not an issue with Linux. It addresses a bug on Windows 2000 & XP. Note that the Cube Viewer currently does not work with the SH Cubes. In short, there is an issue with support of denormalized snow flake schema. This will be fixed for Linux once the upcoming 9.2.0.2 patch set is released on MetaLink around Oct 4th.
    Cube Viewer does require that the OLAPI jar files located in $ORACLE_HOME\olap\olapi\lib be the exact same version as the Database Server. So you may have to update the OLAPI jar files on the machine that is running Cube Viewer. Download from the Database Server the correct express*.jar file and copy it to the OLAPI lib directory. Another thing, you may be running into the bug where CV hangs while writing to the log file. To fix this problem, please email me and ask for the Cube Viewer zip. I'll send you some files and intstructions.

  • Problem with Cube Viewer

    Hi techi

    Mehdi

    One-off 2323002 is not applicable for Linux. It addresses a bug in the OLAP API due to differences in the behavior of memory management system services between Windows platforms.
    As for your Cube Viewer problem, please make sure your OLAPI jar files found on the client match those on the server/database. You can find them at $ORACLE_HOME\olap\olapi\lib directory. Copy the database express*.jar files to the client OLAPI lib directory. Cube Viewer is based on the OLAP API.
