Incremental export of EUL??

Hi there..
Currently I'm working on Discoverer to OBIEE migration. I've never worked in Discoverer before.
Is it possible to export one large EUL to multiple eex files?
In my case I've just one Businees Area but the size is pretty big and I want to do incremental export.
How do I do it? and what is the best practice (regarding Joins) in this case.
Appreciate your help

Just to be picky here, there actually is a way to export an EUL to multiple .eex files. In the Export Wizard, step 1, you are asked what you want to export. You can export the entire end user layer, selected business areas, or selected objects in the EUL. If you pick the last option (selected objects), then you could do a separate export for each object type. Now is that a realistic choice, especially for an OBIEE migration? Probably not, but it is a choice. Normally this is done for Workbooks. Joins are not a selectable object type, for example. If you pick folders as your object type, then the joins defined for the selected folder(s) will come with them. If you want to learn more about exporting objects from the EUL, look at the Discoverer Administration User Guide (chapter 4).

Can we import incremental export.dmp in 8i

Hi all,
I have Exported .dmp file(Incremental Export) taken from Oracle 8.0.4 Database. How can I import this file into Oracle 8i Database(Another different Database).

Hi Madhuri,
Please refer to the below link. I think this should resolve your query.

Incremental export/import replacement

Hi,
Please help me with following task:
a. A daily incremental export from a 9.2.0.3 database.
b. Import into a 10.2.0.4 database.
Since incremental exp/imp is no longer available for 9i and 10g, does Oracle have a replacement for this functionality? Does RMAN incremental backup/restore able to do the same thing (cross version recovery)? Or any other way to do this?
Thank you very much in advance.
Yong Suo

I'm still confused at the point of this test... If you are running data entry applications in parallel against both databases, why would the two databases be out of sync at the end of the day? Wouldn't the final test be that the two systems didn't require manual resynchronization? If you're going to replace all the data in the new database at the end of the day if it doesn't match what was in the old database, you're defeating the purpose of running any non-reporting application against the new database.
If you want to replace all the data in a particular set of tablespaces, you could certainly use transportable tablespaces. That would discard all the data in those tablespaces in the 10g database every day, which as I mentioned above seems rather odd if you're trying to run a parallel production environment. You could also configure replication between the systems via Streams or materialized views which would only replicate changes.

Incremental Export using EXP Command

Hi all,
I am trying to get incremental backup using oracle 9i "Exp" command. But this backup is being taken full of table data where changes made. Actually incremental backup should take a backup only the data last changes made.
Please help me, how can I take the real incremental backup using exp command.
Thanks
Khalil

should take a backup only the data last changes made.In order to be able to do that, Oracle would have to track rows that have changed since the last export. Think of a database with few hundred to a few thousand tables and tables with tens to tens-of-million rows.
In a table, a single column in a single row may have been updated.
However, in another table 40 columns in 3million rows may have been updated since the last export.
In another table, some rows might be deleted. (how would "incremental" compute the difference between "there were 1000 rows yesterday, there are 942 rows today")
In a fourth table, 3million rows have been inserted since the last export.
Can you conceive of the scale of "tracking" that Oracle would have to do if you want "only the last changes" to be exported ? Next, how would you "merge" data from two exports when you import them -- e.g. if the non-primarykey columns have been updated ; or primarykey has been updated ; or the table has no primarykey ?
The only way an "Incremental" change can be identified is by tracking if any change (whether 1 columm in 1 row or all the columns in all the rows) has been made to the table since the last export. If a single byte has been changed in the table, the whole table will be exported.
Are you sure you were able to use Incremental Export in 9i ? Incremental Export is documented in 8.1.7 but hasn't appeared in the 9.2 documentation.
The 8.1.7 documentation says "+An incremental Export backs up only tables that have changed since the last incremental, cumulative, or complete Export. An incremental Export exports the table definition and all its data, *not just the changed rows*. Typically, you perform incremental Exports more often than cumulative or complete Exports.+ "
Oracle had announced the end of Error Correction Support for the Incremental Export effective 31-Dec-1999. It ended Extended Assistance Support 31-Dec-2002. See Oracle Note#170483.1 on the support site.

How can we take the incremental export using the datapump at schema level.

Hi,
How can we take the incremental export using the datapump at schema level. Example, today i had taken the full export of one schema.
After 7 days from now , how can i take the export of change data , from the data of my full export.
using the export datapump parameter - FLASHBACK_TIME ,can we mention the date range. Example sysdate - (sysdate -7)
Please advice
thanks
Naveen.

Think of the Data Pump Export/Import tools as taking a "picture" or "snapshot."
When you use these utilities it exports the data as it appears (by default) while it's doing the export operation. There is no way to export a delta in comparison to a previous export.
The FLASHBACK_TIME parameter allows you to get a consistent export as of a particular point in time.
I recommend you go to http://tahiti.oracle.com. Click on your version and go to the Utilities Guide. This is where all the information on Data Pump is located and should answer a lot of your questions.

Best choice for exporting / importing EUL

Hi all
I have been tasked with migrating an EUL from a R11 to a R12 environment. The Discoverer version on both environments is 10.1.2 and the OS is Solaris on oracle db's.
I am unfortunately not experienced with Discoverer and there seems to be no one available to assist for various reasons. So I have been reading the manual and forum posts and viewing metalink articles.
I tried exporting the entire eul via the wizard and then importing it to the new environment but i was not successfull and experienced the system hanging for many hours with a white screen and the log file just ended.
I assumed this was a memory problem or slow network issues causing this delay. Someone suggested I export import the EUL in pieces and this seemed to be effective but I got missing item warnings when trying to open reports. This piece meal approach also worried me regarding consistency.
So I decided to try do the full import on the server to try negate the first problem I experienced. Due to the clients security policies I am not able to open the source eul and send it to our dev. I was able to get it from their dev 11 system but I dismissed this as the dev reports were not working and the only reliable eul is the Prod one. I managed to get a prod eex file from a client resource but the upload to my server was extremely slow.
I asked the dba to assit with the third option of exporting a db dump of the eul_us and importing this into my r12 dev environment. I managed this but had to export the db file using sys which alleviated a priviledge problem when logging in, I have reports that run and my user can see the reports but there are reports that were not shared to sysadmin in the source enviroment are now prefixed with the version 11 user_id in my desktop and the user cannot see her reports only the sysadmin ones.
I refreshed the BA's using a shell script I made up which uses the java cmd with parameters.
After some re reading I tried selecting all the options in the validate menu and refreshing in the discover admin tool.
If I validate and refresh the BA using the admin tool I get the hanging screen and a lot of warnings that items are missing( so much for my java cmd refresh!) and now the report will not open and I see the substitute missing item dialogue boxes.
My question to the forum is which would be the best approach to migrate the entire eul from a R11 instance to a R12 instance in these circumstances?
Many thanks
Regards
Nick

Hi Srini
The os and db details are as follows:
Source:
eBus 11.5.2
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bi
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
Target:
ebus 12.1.2
Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.1.0.7.0 - 64bit Production DEV12
SunOS 5.10 Generic_142900-11 sun4u sparc SUNW,Sun-Fire-V890
Yes the DBA initially did an exp for me using EUL_US as the owner but a strange thing happened with privileges and also, some of the imported tables appeared in the target environment under the apps schema(21 tables) even though the eul_us exp had been 48 tables.
I also had a problem on the db with "eul_us has insufficient privileges on table space discoverer" type errors.
I checked the eul_us db privileges and was unable to resolve this initial privilege error even though the privileges were granted to eul_us.
The dba managed to exp as system and then import it with the full=y flag in the import command which seems to bring in the privileges.
Then I ran the eul5_id.sql and then made up a list of the business areas and made a sh script to refresh the business areas as follows:
java -jar eulbuilder.jar -connect sysadmin/oracle1@dev -apps_user -apps_responsibility "System Administrator" -refresh_business_area "ABM Activities" -log refresh.log
This runs successfully and I can log in select business area and grant access to the users. The reports return data.
Then one of the users said she can't see all her reports. I noticed some if I opened desktop that were sitting there prefixed with a hash and her version 11 user id.
So back to the manuals and in the disco admin help the instructions are to first go to view > validate > select all options then go to the business area and click file refresh. This gives me a lot of warnings about items that are missing. I assume this is because the item identifiers brought across in the db dump are the version 11 ones and thus not found in the new system.
Any suggestions?
Many thanks
Nick

Incremental export

Hi all,
Os HP Unix
I would like to know whether it’s possible to get an incremental level data from the database.
My requirement is, I have migrated one 8.1.0.5 database to 11.1.0.6. But the migrated database is in still under testing. Now I want whatever the data is getting updated in to the 8i database should apply in the migrated 11g database to make both in sync. As our database size is very small (21G) I can always do a full export and import... But I think that is not a good way to do daily basis. Is there any other way to get all the dml happening on the database so that we can execute only those changes in to the other database...
Regards
Nishant Santhan
Edited by: Nishant Santhan on Jan 12, 2009 4:55 PM

I hope for you your databases will keep alive and sync instead of sink :-)Sorry for that mistake, I have corrected orginal post
Actually it’s a migration project. I have migrated from 8i to 11g, but client is still using the 8i. Once all the testing is over then they will switch it back to 11g. Till the testing is over they need to sync both the db. Is there any way to do when both the db is in different versions?

Increment export/import best way

Hi,
i want to schedule the database backup thru oracle export utility. And database version is 10g (standard edition)
1) one full backup (Complete) in a day after that increment backup after every hour in a day (as my database is small in size)
what are steps i have to do to implement this
2) Is it possible to import this data and how, what are the steps require to import this data in other database.
Thanks

Copy Folder with Joins. Export/Import Folder with joins. In EUL.

Ok, I've got a custom folder which has been made up by dragging items from 2 or 3 other folders into it.
It then has some joins of it's own, quite a few.
When trying to create a workbook from it, it takes 9 mins to run a query.
I need to work out what is slowing it down. If I create the same workbook against the folder which has the majority of the items in the custom folder, it runs instantly.
So I suspect it is one of the joins causing it.
My plan was to duplicate the folder, then remove joins until I find out which one is causing it.
However, if I cut n paste the folder, I get a copy without the joins.
If I export the folder and import it I get a copy without the joins.
Question then - how can I get a copy of a folder WITH the joins ?
I'm slightly concerned that when I export my EUL from the dev database and import it into the live database that I'm not going to get any joins since the export and import into the dev database is not retaining the joins.
Anyone ?

Hi,
The preferences for Disco Plus are set in the pref.txt file on the apps server and for Disco Desktop in the Windows Registry. I think the defaults are set on so unless you have changed them this is unlikely to help.
I think I read somewhere that the 11g optimiser will remove unused outer joins or where there is a foreign key constraint. I may have made that last bit up as I cannot find a reference to it, but it may be worth exploring.
To speed things up you could look at why this join is slowing things down. It could be that you need an index on the join column.
The join actually is used, in that it has to check in the other table that a record exists. This is why Discoverer cannot remove the join from the complex folder query. If it did and there where no matching records in the other table then you would get a different result.

Discoverer Administrator 11.1.1.3.0 EUL Export Doesn't Export All Functions

Using Discoverer Administrator 11.1.3.0 against an Apps EUL. Logged in with an Apps User ID with administrator privileges. When I export the EUL using File | Export "The entire End User Layer", I am shown all of the objects that will be exported. Everything is listed, including all of the registered functions.
However, when the export completes and I am shown a list of the objects exported, the only registered function shown as being exported is END_OF_TIME. Checking the export file verifies that this indeed is the only function definition that was exported.
If I start the export again -- logged in as the same user -- and choose "Selected objects in the End User Layer" , choose "Functions", and select all of the registered functions, they ARE all exported.
Why is this happening?

Export and import of Apps EUL

I have a Apps EUL and use an Apps user id to work in Discoverer Administrator. This is what the Oracle documentation says and it has been working fine.
Now I want to export the EUL but when I start the process I get a message that the user does not have access to all the objects and that only the accessible objects will be exported. Shouldn't the Discoverer Manager/Administrator be able to do a full export?
To get around this problem, I have now been advised to use a database user (the EUL owner) to do the export and import with. Is this the correct way? The Oracle documentation suggest that a database user should never administrate the Apps EUL. Are exporting and importing somehow exluded form this rule?
Thanks!

Hi Aparna!
The Apps EUL was created using a database user. Since then, the EUL has been administered by a Apps user that is dedicated to EUL administration.
The documentation actually recommend that you create the Apps EUL with a database user and from there on administer the Apps EUL with the Apps user SYSADMIN. My company policy doesn't allow me to use SYSADMIN so I have a "custom" Apps user that I use to do all EUL administration. If at all possible, you should try to use SYSADMIN.
The guides and website don't really have a step by step guidance as far as I can remember, more explanatory. I would suggest an email to Michael Armstrong-Smith of the learndiscoverer website. He has helped me alot with this particular subject!

How to Export EUL tables ?

Hi all,
I have upgraded Discoverer admin/ desktop form 4.1.37 to 4.1.48. When i try to connect to Administrator it asks me to export EUL tables so that it will upgrade EUL. Iam unable to connect to Adminstrator/Desktop 4.1.48 as a Application user.
How to export EUL tables?
Thankyou

Hi,
Your DBA should export the EUL owner schema using the database command exp. This will export all the EUL tables and will enable you restore the tables if the upgrade fails.

How to keep User Order when exporting a collection?

I made a collection of about 300 VC's, chosen from many folders in my catalogue. These images were taken over a 10 year period, using 3 different cameras and having different names and file types. The collection was sorted by "User Order". I spent a good deal of time organizing the collection so that the images made visual sense when shown as a slide show on a digital album.
I exported the collection to my hard drive as jpegs, and checked the box to place them back in my catalogue, in a designated subfolder within my parent folder. All went well except they are now completely out of order, and that order makes no logical sense whatsoever - not by date, metadata, filename, attributes, nothing that I can figure out. I have to start all over again to reorder them - something that will take several hours.
What did I do wrong? How can I keep my designated user order when I export a collection?
I am using LR 4.3.
Thanks for your replies.

Hi Rene,
Lightroom does not maintain user order upon exporting. It would make no sense when not exporting back to catalog, but when exporting back to catalog I can see that it may be desirable - consider making a feature request (Idea) here:
http://feedback.photoshop.com/photoshop_family/topics/new
In the mean time, I *think* what most people do to assure export ordering is to name the files according to desired order, then sort by filename. I could be wrong about that, but that's all I got.
Beware: If said approach is adopted, one would not be able to do incremental exports and maintain such ordering (e.g. when single image added to publish service), so all files would need to be re-exported if such change was made.
I have requested access to sort order and added-order via plugin for plugin-assisted remedy, but so far no go.
Another idea (which may not be acceptable) is to use capture-time to maintain sort order of exported photos (via a plugin like Exportant), then it would be easy enough to maintain user order by manipulating capture time (of exported photos I mean, post-export), but then you'd lose the true capture-time, granted: capture time could be put into some other field, but that might foul things up downstream... hmm - sorry for rambling/brain-storming out loud.
Maybe somebody else has a better idea.
