Initiating batch scripts from Maxl Script Editor in Admin Console??

Guys,
Is it possible to initiate batch scripts from Maxl script editor in Admin Console.
I dont want to automate the scripts as my data loading process can happen at any time.
Thanks in advance
A

Hi A,
I'm not sure what you're asking? Do you want to run a batch of Maxl scripts, or a batch file, or a single Maxl Script? Why do you choose to use the Admin console to do this? Could you run what you're trying to run in batch from the command line?
Executing MaxL and MDX Scripts
To execute a MaxL script or an MDX script:
Open or create the script.
From the server drop-down list on the toolbar, select the Analytic Server to execute the script against.
The drop-down list contains only Analytic Servers that are displayed in your Enterprise View. For more information about connections, see Connecting to Analytic Servers in MaxL and MDX Script Editors.
Specify how errors should be handled during execution. See Setting MaxL and MDX Execution Options.
Specify how you want results to be displayed in the Results tab. See Viewing MaxL and MDX Results.
If the script contains variables, specify how undefined variables are resolved during execution. See Resolving Undefined Variables.
To execute the entire script, right-click and select Execute from the pop-up menu.
To execute only part of the script, highlight the statement or statements that you want to execute, right-click, and select Execute from the pop-up menu.
The script executes against the specified Analytic Server, and the results are displayed in the Results panel.Regards,
Robb Salzmann

Error handling from MAXL into a batch file

Hello all
I need to know how do we pass a value to a batch file from MAXL script if an error occurs.
I have used the following in my MAXL to catch an error.
========================
login username password on server01;
Iferror 'error';
Define Label 'error';
Exit;
=======================
In the batch file I used:
If %errorlevel% NEQ 0 goto catch
:catch
echo an error occurred during MAXL script
Exit
========================
This doesnt give me any error even the login info is wrong in the MAXL script
Please correct if this is wrong and provide any help if possible
Thanks in advance

Here's the error checking code I used in my last not-DOS-but-we-call-it-that script:
REM Call MaxL script with parameters
REM The 2>&1 at the end of the below line merges CMD's STDERR into STDOUT
%hyperion_home%\products\essbase\essbaseclient\bin\essmsh.exe %batAutomation%\%esbAppName%\MaxL\%mshScriptName%.msh %esbUsername% %esbPassword% %esbServer% %esbAppName% %mshScriptName% %batDrive% %batAutomation% >>%log% 2>&1
REM Test for MaxL execution errors
IF NOT %ERRORLEVEL% == 0 (SET errormsg=Error! - MaxL script %mshScriptName%.msh failed with ERRORLEVEL %ERRORLEVEL% & GOTO ERROR)The 2>&1 command at the end of the MaxL script line merges STDOUT and STDERR into an overall log file I used for other processes as well as MaxL. It's great for that purpose, but unfortunately logs the username and password -- this would be overcome by encrypting those values. It was acceptable for the solution so I didn't lose any sleep over it.

Need 750+ computers removed from FCS Admin Console

Hi, I'm a noob with FCS, so please pardon me if I sound stupid.
My requirement is to remove like 750+ computers from the Forefront Client Security Admin Console. We generally follow the following steps to remove a computer:
Go to the console, expand Administration -> Computers -> Agent-managed Computers
Select the computer that we want to remove, right-click and select Force to Unmanaged Management Mode
Go to Unmanaged Computers and remove the computer from there
Go to Computer Discovery Rules and remove the rule that discovers the computer intended to be removed
This plainly cannot be done on 750+ computers one-by-one because it will consume A LOT of my time. Is there a script or anything that can help me achieve this?
I saw the
post, but not sure if it is the same as my requirement.
Thank you!
Ram

Hi,
Yes, it is the same as your requirement. But it has no resolution in that thread.
You could try to use the following tool to see if it meet your requirement.

Using MaxL in batch script to get Essbase database size before proceeding

I have a batch script which dynamically generates some MaxL before passing it to ESSMSH. I would like to insert a command at the beginning of the MaxL script, to get and assess the size of the database before proceeding. If the database is empty I would like the script to quit. This is to prevent the script from exporting data and overwriting the previous export file if the database is empty.
The generated MaxL (modified) is currently as follows. What logic can I add to the MaxL script, to assess the database size and go to the "errorhandler" label if it is empty? Is this even possible?
login %USER% identified by %PASS% on %SERVER%;
iferror "errorhandler";
/* log file */
spool stdout on to '<directory>.log';
iferror "errorhandler";
/* error file */
spool stderr on to '<directory>.err';
iferror "errorhandler";
/* export data */
set timestamp on;
execute calculation %APP%.%DB%.C_Export;
iferror "errorhandler";
/* reset database */
alter database %APP%.%DB% reset data;
iferror "errorhandler";
/* import data */
import database %APP%.%DB% data from server data_file "<filename>.txt" on error abort;
iferror "errorhandler";
/* calculate database */
execute calculation default on %APP%.%DB%;
iferror "errorhandler";
/* error handler */
spool off;
define label "errorhandler";
logout;
exit;

Hi Stuart,
Yes I was aware of display database "app"."db"; however this will output a table rather than a specific value. And what logic can I then add to the MaxL script to assess the specific value of "Db Status" and go to the "errorhandler" label if it is empty?
It would seem this needs to be done via a VBScript, to loop through the file rows to find the value before proceeding accordingly. But I was hoping there might be a way to do this within MaxL.

How to call a batch script from DI?

Hi All,
I'm new to DI/DS and would like to know is there a way to call a batch sciprt (.bat file) in DI?
What I try to do is,
1.call a batch script to move source files from a file server to the source folder before kicking off the data flow
2. once the data flow is completed, call a batch script to move the processed source files to the achive folder.
In other ETL tool like informatica it can be done via the command task, is there something similar in DI?
Any help would be appreciated.
Regards
BL

Thanks Suneer.
Just want to clarify, when I create the script task in the work flow, should I put the path of my batch file or the batch script itself in?
e.g., my batch script is movefile.bat under folder C:\Script,
and the command is: move /Y "C:\Input\*.*". "C:\Archive\".
in the script task, should I put
exec('cmd', 'C:\Script\movefile.bat')
or
exec('cmd', 'move /Y "C:\Input\*.*". "C:\Archive\".')
Thanks again for your help

Batch Script to display last modified file from multiple directories

Hello,
I am trying to find the name of the latest file or the last modified file from a set of given directories.
I approached the problem by breaking it into two parts: a. read all the directories from a .txt file and display the names of those directories and files under those directories. b. Find the latest file present in any given directory and
Upto this point all worked well, but when I am trying to combine both these batch scripts, I am unable to get the desired result.
I am using BATCH SCRIPT only to complete this.
My tried script is as below:
a. TO SEE ALL THE DIRECTORIES SPECIFIED IN "path_123.txt" FILE
for /f "delims=" %%i in ('type "C:\Users\sonkar\Desktop\path_123.txt" ') do (set locall=%%i
echo %locall%
echo %%i
b. TO FIND THE LATEST FILE PRESENT IN THE DIRECTORY
set BUILDDROP="E:\"
for /f "tokens=*" %%a in ('dir /A:-D /B /O:-D %BUILDDROP%') do set NEWEST=%%a&& goto :next
:next
echo %NEWEST%
But when combining both is not working at all.
Any help is appreciated.

Since batch files lack the ability to do date arithmetic you are pushing them well beyond their limits. Either VBScript of PowerShell could handle this type of task. Here is a VBScript solution. You must save the code in a .vbs file, then modify it to suit
your exact needs.
'Find the most recent file in a collection of folders
'11 Sep 2014 FNL
Dim dDate, dDate_, sFile, sFile_
Set oFSO = CreateObject("Scripting.Filesystemobject")
Set oList = ofso.OpenTextFile("C:\Users\sonkar\Desktop\path_123.txt", 1)
aList = Split(olist.ReadAll, vbCrLf)
oList.close
dDate = cdate("01/01/2000")
For Each sFolder In aList
   dDate_ = cdate("01/01/2000")
   ProcessFolder(sFolder)
   If dDate_ > dDate Then
       dDate = dDate_
       sFile = sFile_
   End If
Next
WScript.Echo "Most recent file: """ & sFile & """"
WScript.Echo "File date: " &dDate
Sub ProcessFolder(sFldr)
   If LTrim(sFldr) = "" Then Exit Sub
   WScript.Echo "Processing """ & sFldr & """"
   For Each oFile In oFSO.GetFolder(sFldr).Files
       If oFile.DateLastModified > dDate_ Then
           dDate_ = oFile.DateLastModified
           sFile_ = oFile.Path
       End if
   Next
   For Each oFolder In oFSO.GetFolder(sFldr).SubFolders
       ProcessFolder(oFolder.path)

Calling oracle procedure from batch script

i have a .bat file, in which i am using sqlldr to load into a staging table from csv file, and then using merge to insert / update into target table
i have 2 doubts
1) my first doubt is regarding batch script..how to handle the errorlevels which are greater than 1?
so generally speaking, how do i handle all the errors at once..and make sure the control goes to
run_sqlldr0 always? and handle the error meaningfully if its other than 0 ?
below is my batch script, and i get error
goto run_sqlldr2
the system cannot find the batch label specified - run_sqlldr2
@echo on
call oraenv.bat
if not exist %mainpath% goto mainpath_def
if not exist %scripts% goto scriptspath_def
if not exist %logs% goto logspath_def
if not exist %data% goto datapath_def
goto x1
:x1
goto run_sqlldr%ERRORLEVEL%
echo run_sqlldr%ERRORLEVEL%
if run_sqlldr%ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 goto run_sqlldr1
echo "entering sqlldr"
:run_sqlldr1
echo "entered sqlldr1"
echo "some error"
echo mergedata%ERRORLEVEL%
:run_sqlldr0
echo "entered sqlldr0"
sqlldr userid = scott/tiger@orcl control=%mainpath%\cm.ctl log=%logs%\cm.log discard=%logs%\cm.dsc bad=%logs%\cm.bad SILENT=(HEADER, FEEDBACK)
goto mergedata%ERRORLEVEL%
:mergedata1
echo "entered mergedata1"
echo cleandata%ERRORLEVEL%
:mergedata0
sqlplus -s scott/tiger@orcl @%scripts%\merge_stg.sql
goto cleandata%ERRORLEVEL%
:cleandata1
echo "entered cleandata1"
sqlplus -s scott/tiger@orcl @%scripts%\clean_stg.sql
goto exit
:cleandata0
echo "entered cleandata0"
echo "error in removing data"
goto exit
:mainpath_def
echo "mainpath not existing as specified %mainpath%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:scriptspath_def
echo "scripts path not existing as specified %scripts%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:logspath_def
echo "Logs path not existing as specified %logs%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:datapath_def
echo "Data path not existing as specified %data%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:exit
2) my second doubt, is this the right way of calling the stored procedures merge_stg and clean_stg?
in clean_stg, i use dynamic sql to truncate the staging table
create or replace procedure trunstg is
lsql varchar2(2000) := 'truncate table stg_ldrtest';
begin
execute immediate lsql;
end;
/

i have changed the code
@echo on
call oraenv.bat
if not exist %mainpath% goto mainpath_def
if not exist %scripts% goto scriptspath_def
if not exist %logs% goto logspath_def
if not exist %data% goto datapath_def
goto x1
:x1
goto run_sqlldr%ERRORLEVEL%
echo run_sqlldr errorlevel: %ERRORLEVEL%
if run_sqlldr%ERRORLEVEL% NEQ 0 goto run_sqlldr1
echo "entering sqlldr"
:run_sqlldr1
echo "entered sqlldr1"
echo "some error"
:run_sqlldr2
echo errorlevel: %errorlevel%
echo mergedata%ERRORLEVEL%
:run_sqlldr0
echo "entered sqlldr0"
sqlldr userid = gautam/gautam@orcl control=%mainpath%\cm.ctl log=%logs%\cm.log discard=%logs%\cm.dsc bad=%logs%\cm.bad SILENT=(HEADER, FEEDBACK)
goto mergedata%ERRORLEVEL%
:mergedata1
echo "entered mergedata1"
goto end
echo cleandata%ERRORLEVEL%
:mergedata0
sqlplus -s gautam/gautam@orcl @%scripts%\merge_stg.sql
goto cleandata%ERRORLEVEL%
:cleandata1
echo "entered cleandata1"
echo "cleaning error"
goto end
:cleandata0
sqlplus -s gautam/gautam@orcl @%scripts%\clean_stg.sql
goto end
:mainpath_def
echo "mainpath not existing as specified %mainpath%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:scriptspath_def
echo "scripts path not existing as specified %scripts%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:logspath_def
echo "Logs path not existing as specified %logs%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:datapath_def
echo "Data path not existing as specified %data%, Please edit ORAENV with correct value"
goto exit
:end
EXIT
so the error is ORA - 30926, unable to get a stable set of
rows in the source tables
my merge is

How to extract row_id from PL/SQL procedure and assign that to batch script

Hello Team,
I am stuck with a requirement, wherein I am running a batch script and within the batch script I am calling a procedure which inserts a record in a table (Including a column named l_id).
I need this generated l_id to be passed on as a variable to batch script after PL/SQL procedure completion. So that I can refer this same l_id to update the same record in the table again in the same batch script in the later part.
Looking for some suggestions!!!!
Thanks

Looking for some suggestions!!!!Don't do this using batch scripts. Batch scripts are very much inferior compared to stored PL/SQL code when it comes to managing databases processes and performing data crunching.
Why can't this be written entirely in PL/SQL? And execution managed from either DBMS_JOB or DBMS_SCHEDULER ? And before answering that, consider the following:
- what is the superior language, PL/SQL or shell script?
- what provides tighter integration with the database, PL/SQL or shell script?
- what provides proper security and access control, PL/SQL or shell script?
As you can call SQL*Plus from a shell script to run PL/SQL, you can call a shell script from PL/SQL instead to run external commands and processes.
Use the right tool for the job. And shell scripting is an excellent tool - but only when correctly used. Are you using it correctly? I strongly doubt that...

Applescript duplicate command runs different as an Application than from Script Editor

Hi,
When I run my script from the Script Editor it copies (duplicates) only the new files from one folder to the other one, as desired. That is, when the file already exists in the destination folder, it just skips to the next one until they are all done.
However, if I save that very same script as an Application and run it, Finder throws up a dialog box for each item telling me that it already exists and asks if I'd like to Keep Both, Stop or Replace the file.
I can't figure out why it would run differently as a Script in Script Editor, to how it would run as an Application? Can somebody please tell me where I'm going wrong? Or perhaps there has been a change in the way Finder and Applescript operate the Duplicate command in Yosemite?
Interestingly, this problem has only started occurring since I updated to Yosemite. Before that, on Mavericks, I didn't have this problem! And I've also just tried the same thing on my other MacBook Pro that's running Mavericks and it works as intended.
Thanks so much!

I think the replacing parameter may be broken. The first time I run this:
tell application "Finder"
make new folder at desktop with properties {name:"newf"} with replacing
end tell
I get a new folder. The second and subsequent times, I get this:
Unless I'm completely misunderstanding how to use the replacing parameter...

Is it possible to start a batch script from Sharepoint?

Hi,
I want to start a batch script from Sharepoint which executes some sql queries.
Can someone guide me how to start a batch (.bat) script in SP?

Yes and no. If your script is scheduled to run by some other process (which it should be, because it very likely has to be run as some account and not the web app account), you should set the script to look for a setting in a sharepoint list,
if that setting tells the script to run, then it does. This means that, yes, you can start a batch script from sharepoint.
To be able to execute a script directly from sharepoint...no.

How to checkout from the batch script?

Hello All !
Does anybody knows how to maintain versioned files with the batch scripts? Particularly I'm talking about doing a checkout/checkin operations. Are any command-line utilities available? Is it possible at all?
Regards, Sergey.

you can get entire table script
select dbms_metadata.get_ddl('TABLE','TABLE_NAME','SCHEMANAME') from dual;
IT is not possible to get only the partition script
As it is a part of table definition.
You can also use the third party tool like 'TOAD' to get the script also.

Calling SAP Script Editor from Report

Hi,
Can any one solve this Problem.
How to call SAPscript Editor i.e. MS word editor (where we are giving Text elements or Text variables or Text.
I want to call the above text editor from my report.
Can any one give answer for this.
Thanks & Regards,
Kumar.

Moarach,
you need to open a editor for entering the text. You can do that using the function module HR_CALL_TEXTEDITOR. After you have entered the text and clicked on SAVE you get the data returned in an internal table EDITOR_TEXT.
You can then save the text to a text ID using SAVE_TEXT and COMMIT_TEXT function modules.
either:
You will have to use the FM: READ_TEXT, EDIT_TEXT, SAVE_TEXT to achieve this functionality.
This will basically open the text editor as a pop up box ( size will be as sap script editor) for entering some comments against a Purchase Order.
For this FMs, you 'll require Text id, text name, text object and language as parameters to be passed.
thead-tdname = 'Purchase Order No'. " Name
thead-tdid = 'ZQH1'. " Text ID - E.g. To be created in your system
thead-tdobject = 'VBBK'. " Texts: application object
thead-tdspras = sy-langu. " Language Key
Hope this helps.
Amit.

Calling Rss feed from Script Editor webpart

I am trying to add this script to Script Editor webpart and this doesnt work. I dont see anything on webpart. Can anyone help me
where I went wrong.
<html>
<head>
<script type="text/javascript">
$(document).ready(function()
$.ajax(
type:”GET”,
url: "rssreader.com/englishfeeds.xml",
datatype:”xml”,
success:function(xml)
$(xml).find(‘item’).each(function()
Var Title=$(this).find(‘title’).text;
Var link=$(this).find(‘link’).text;
$(“body”).append(‘<div><span>’+Title’</span><span>’+Description’</span></div>’)
error:function()
Alert(‘Sorry Error occurred’);
</script>
</head>
<body>
</body></html>

Not sure but somehow your quotes seems different then they should actually look.
//Replace
type:”GET”,
//Replace With
type:"GET",
Do similar changes at other places as well both for double quotes as well as single quotes.
Also, replace
$(this).find(‘title’).text
with
$(this).find('title').text();
Do similar change for link as well
Also where you are appending the html, where are you getting the Description from ?? Also there is a missing + symbol after Title there.
Do the above changes and see if that helps

Run batch script from procedure

How should we run a batch script that contains FDQM command line from a procedure?
The command line is created using upsShell.exe.
If anyone has tried the above scenario, kindly share your ideas regarding this.

SH, Since we use Oracle we cannot use xp_cmdshell.
When we go for External Procedures, only routines callable from C code (not C++ code) are supported.
For your information we cannot make use of the C program in our environment.
Is there any other possibility to run the job from within oracle database.
Please correct if I m wrong. Kindly need your clarification asap. Thank you.
