Installing DAC and Informatica

My topology is defined as Informatica PC server in Linux and DAC server in Linux.
Informatica PC clients in Windows.
That seems to be a correct topology.
I have Informatica PC server in Linux running OK, and also Informatica clients in Windows installed.
Now when coming to DAC installation I am kind of lost... Edelivery has a DAC for windows and a DAC for Linux.
When trying to install DAC for Windows it will install both DAC clients AND SERVER in Windows >> It seems I have to do this and then just ignore this DAC SERVER ??
Or should I use the DAC for Linux ?
When trying to install DAC for WIndows it asks for Informatica location and domain >> It is asking for the SERVER locations ? or the client... it is not clear
How to point to the domain given that Informatica server is installed in Linux ?
Txs. a lot for any help.

Hi,
Installer allows you to install both DAC Client and server on the Windows. But DO NOT start the dac server if you install it.
On the installer the 3rd page is the 'Component Installation' You can click off the radio button for DAC Server. This will then only install the Client on windows.
On the linux, download the DAC for Linux. This time, click install the DAC Server. start DAC server on the Linux.
Now for the question of Informatica Location. When you are doing this on the Windows, you will have a location for the Informatica eg:
C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.1.1\ put this entry in the top field.
Then underneath 'C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.1.1\' look for the domain.infa file. Usual path is : 'C:\Informatica\PowerCenter8.1.1\domains.infa'
Personally i would install CLient and server on the Windows but not start the Server.

  • BI Apps - Financial Analytics (DB connection DAC and Informatica Designer)

    Hi all,
    With correct Physical data sources configured in DAC including production JDE database (Oracle) and Datawarehouse, the ETL process can be finished in DAC without error. However, the datawarehouse tables do not contain any records after the ETL.
    Thus I open the Informatica Client - Workflow Designer, and go to menu Connections -> Relational. I found that the user name supplied for JDE data source is DEV user, not the production user. Is it the cause that ETL executed in DAC cannot populate records to datawarehouse tables?
    Is there relationshiop between settings in DAC and Informatica Workflow Manager even though correct configuration is done in DAC?

    Sean

  • Install DAC 10.1.3.4.1 client throws INST-07309 informatica domain file

    This is BIApps 7.6.0. The installer setup.exe from dac_windows_x86_101341.zip throws INST-07309 failure with "informatica domain file location". Obviously this is because I cannot provide a location for domains.infa. This file does not seem to exist on my windows client machine (A).
    I am trying to install the DAC client on my windows client machine (A) following
    "Oracle® Business Intelligence Applications Installation Guide for Informatica PowerCenter Users Version 7.9.6 Part Number E14217-01"

    I have already installed Informatica PowerCenter 8.6.0 HotFix4 client on this windows client machine (A) and Informatica PowerCenter Services 8.6.0 HotFix4 on a different machine (B).
    Anyone else hit this? Have I missed something in the guide? As a workaround I file transfered the domains.infa xml file from the informatica server home on the server machine (B) to the informatica client home on my windows client machine (A).

    I think this is the way you should do this indeed...

    Hi Andy,
    Thanks for your reply. Yes my OS is 64bit and i have downloaded 64bit DAC.
    Do you mean that there is a issue with 64bit DAC software.
    Sounds simple, but please confirm that you have unzipped the DAC download before running setup.exe?
    Yes i have unzipped the folder and inside in that only i have found setup.exe file in which it is resulted for me in error when im clicked the setup.exe file.
    I would recommend the 32-bit version as the 64-bit version has issues with the installer
    U recommend to install with 32bit DAC software instead of 64bit.
    But if i clicked the win32 file means i can install DAC
    C:\Softserverext\dac_win_101341_infa_win_x86_64bit_910\dac\Disk1\install\win32-->can install DAC
    But my OS and informatica is of 62bit, so i recommend only to install 64bit DAC or else 32bit DAC itself is okay and if it will not cause any issue.
    C:\Softserverext\dac_win_101341_infa_win_x86_64bit_910\dac\Disk1\install\win64---->resulting in errorWhich path can i prefer.

  • How to create execution plan in DAC and how to start ETL steps

    Hi,
    For ETL configuration i have installed and configured,
    1. Oracle 10G DB
    2. obiee and obia 7.9.6
    3. informatica server (here i created repository and integration services)
    4. DAC server 10g (setup for DAC is also configured like create warehouse tables etc.,
    same installation done on windows for client.
    Now i'm struck with execution plan creation.
    then
    how to start ETL, where start ETL
    Source : Oracle EBIZ R12.1.1
    target : Datawarehouse (10G DB)
    please help me out the steps till ETL start ?
    Thanks,
    Srik

    Hi Srik
    I am assuming you have followed the steps required before a load in the library for dac config, csv lookups etc...
    Did you check out the example in the documentation?
    Here is the link
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14223_01/bia.796/e14217/windows_ic.htm#BABFGIHE
    If you follow those steps and run the execution plan and you can monitor the progress under the current run tab in the dac and the infa workflow monitor.

  • Can't install DAC 10.1.3.4.1 on win2008 R2 x64

    Hi all,
    I can't install the DAC on windows 2008 R2 x64.
    I know I can't use the normal setup.exe but have to use the setup.exe in the win32 folder.
    However, the installer will start, but then it will check the OS and then it says that it is not supported.
    However the certification matrix says it is supported, but it doesn't work...
    Does anyone know how I can skip this check?
    I was thinking of installing the DAC on another computer and then copy everything to the target server.
    However a collegue thought that there might be some file that needs to be edited so the check will not fail.
    Last option would be to uninstall SP2, then install the DAC and then reinstall SP2 again.
    Anyone better ideas?
    Thanks,
    Remco

    Hi Navin,
    Thanks for thinking with me but you really have to go to to win32 according Bug 9051497.
    But thanks

  • How to install DAC server (for OBIA v7963) on linux ?

    Guys - I am in the mid of installing OBIA v7963 on linux x64 . And right now I am doing the DAC server installation part .
    The installation guide http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E20490_01/bia.7963/e19038/windows_ic.htm#BABHDEJJ clearly says that we have to install
    DAC server on windows box first and then copy it over to linux . crude and cumbersome !! As per this guide - there is no way to directly install it on linux .
    Where as the downloaded DAC s/w has a runInstaller which works in a 32 bit linux shell (not in 64 bit shell) . I did it and the installation went fine .
    This is how it is done in our environment . My question is : why does the installation guide say nothing about this easy way of installing it ? And how
    do you guys do it usually ? What's the best practice ?

    You are right RM . I straight away installed it on linux . Me installing DAC for the first time - I had no other choice than following this installation guide
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E20490_01/bia.7963/e19038/windows_ic.htm#BABHDEJJ
    But this method of directly installing on linux is no where said in the guide . I wonder why ? And the very purpose of having a installation guide is defeated here .
    I have seen typos in oracle documentation . But this is a huge huge miss in the documentation . I can't believe it .
    Thank You .

  • Error when trying to install DAC

    I am trying to install DAC - download from edelivery infalinux64_dac_10.3.4. I understand that I should do initially a windows DAC install. Trouble is that setup from DAC/Disk1/install and setup from DAC/Disk1/win32 both fails complaining about Java not found... download Java 1.3 etc.
    I do have windows 7 - 32bit system.
    Txs. for any hints
    Antonio

    1st check what the size of the zip file of DAC installation file...and after extracting check the size.
    Java 1.3 will not help out............Install JDK 1.5 or JDK 1.6 version to isntall DAC..
    and make sure you give your IP address at HOSTS file in WINDOWS

  • Lenovo Yoga 2 13, Kali Linux 1.0.7, Ubuntu 14.04, Windows 8.1 install, config, and wifi fix.

    Lenovo Yoga 2 13, Kali Linux 1.0.7, Ubuntu 14.04, Windows 8.1 install, config, and wifi fix.
    I wanted to share an experience with everyone I hope will help others avoid what I have gone through the past 3 days. I bought a Yoga 11s that I loved but had some issues with the wireless, Lenovo being awesome replaced it with a Yoga 2 13. I love this laptop but ran into some issues with Linux install/wireless, which I wanted to show how to resolve in one place. Hopefully this will help someone else get through this quicker
    I am going to try and write this for someone with little Linux experience, if I miss the mark please let me know and I will clarify the best I can.
    For work I need Windows 8.1 and Kali Linux, while for home I prefer Ubuntu.
    My Yoga 2 13:
    I5 1.6 ghz
    8 GB ram
    256 GB SSD
    ORANGE!
    My requirements: 
    I need Windows
    I need Kali Linux (livecd, even with persistent mode was not an option as it would not save the wireless fix or system updates) – I would also like this on a USB drive and not the internal SSD
    I would like Ubuntu
    Needed to do this:
    1. 2 USB thumb drives (at least 8gb in size each) I used 2 Leef Supra 32GB drives. They are my favorite right now and are only about $27 at amazon.
    2. Phone that can USB Tether or a USB Ethernet card (External USB wireless will show as "Hardware Locked"). Again you can pick one up for sub $10 if you need the USB Ethernet route. I used my Galaxy S5, you will need to download 200-300 mb of items through this so make sure you have the data if you go that route.
    3. You may be able to get a USB wifi card to work if you do the following after boot. This only worked once for me.
                    a.Type ‘sudo rmmod iwlmvm’
    b.Type ‘sudo rmmod iwlwifi’
    4. ISOs of Ubuntu and Kali Linux (I used Ubuntu 14.04 and Kali Linux 1.0.7)
    5. Software to unzip the ISOs. I recommend 7-ZIP and will be referencing this in this guide.
    6. I will include the EFI boot files and the WiFi fix files if I can attach. Otherwise I will provide a link to them.
       Link: https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    Recommended (these are just in case you corrupt something making your system not see any OS
    1.  I would call Lenovo beforehand and get a set of recover disks (this will take 2-3 days)
    2. In the meantime a USB Windows 8.1 or 8 ISO (the repair feature may save you)
    *Note: At many points in this guide I detail steps and commands. Please double check that you understand the step before proceeding. There are multiple points where a mistyped command or clicking the wrong option will cause your entire system to fail and you will need to reformat the entire drive and start over. This also will make One Touch recovery not work. Proceed with caution.*
    I did not need to disable ‘secure boot’ to do this, but keep in mind that you may need to.
    Steps:
    First let’s go through the installs, and then we will go through grub config and wireless fix
    1. In Windows scroll to computer and right click, select manage.
    2. Go to “Disk Management”
    3. Select the main HDD (notice Lenovo puts a stupid number of partitions on here)
    a. I deleted the D: drive on here, if you do this make sure to copy the drives over to your main C: drive. You will want to run each of the installers and repair the drivers after.
    4. I used the space from the D: drive and pulled a little more creating a 50 GB partition for Ubuntu and my swap file
    a. You can also add more space by right clicking your C drive and selecting shrink
    b. Do not format the partitioned data as this will make identifying it later much easier.
    5. Open a command line
                    a. Swipe from the right of the screen and select search
                    b. Type ‘cmd’
                    c. right click and select ‘run as admin’
    6. For Ubuntu: Type ‘diskpart’ into the command line
                    a. type ‘list disk’
    i. You should see 2-3 disks depending on if you have one or both usb drives in the laptop at the time. I would suggest only doing 1 at a time so you don’t lose track.
                    b. type ‘select disk $’ (Replace the $ with the number of the drive)
    c. ***** Before proceeding make sure you have the correct drive selected or you can ruin your Windows install and Lenovo one touch recovery will not fix it since we have changed the partitions *****
    d. type ‘clean’
    e. type ‘create partition primary’
    f. type ‘active’
    g. type ‘format  fs=fat32 quick’
    h. type ‘assign’
    i. type ‘exit’
    6. For Kali Linux: Type ‘diskpart’ into the command line
                    a. type ‘list disk’
    i. You should see 2-3 disks depending on if you have one or both usb drives in the laptop at the time. I would suggest only doing 1 at a time so you don’t lose track.
                    b. type ‘select disk $’ (Replace the $ with the number of the drive)
    c. ***** Before proceeding make sure you have the correct drive selected or you can ruin your Windows install and Lenovo one touch recovery will not fix it since we have changed the partitions *****
    d. type ‘clean’
    e. type ‘create partition primary size= 3272
    f. type ‘active’
    g. type ‘format  fs=fat32 quick’
    h. type ‘assign’
    i. type ‘exit’
    j. By doing this we can maintain a portion of this drive as the install CD and still have linux install/ liveCD if we need to run it on another machine.
    7. At this point the drive is ready to have the contents of the ISO copied over.
    8. Right click the ISO and select 7-zip then ‘zip to /’ This should unzip the ISO to the location of the ISO into a folder named exactly the same as the ISO.
    9. Once this is done for Ubuntu ISO it is done
    10. Kali requires a little bit more to be ready
                    a. Kali will need some files added for EFI boot. --$--
                                   i. Thanks to: https://forums.kali.org/showthread.php?271-How-to-EFI-install-Kali-Linux
                                   ii. EFI files are located within the wifi fix folder https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    11. Now let’s start with Ubuntu
    Ubuntu install
    1.     Place USB drive into the laptop and press the “Lenovo boot” button next to the power button
    2.     Select ‘Boot Menu’
    3.     Select ‘EFI USB Device (Name of drive)’ Mine stated Leef Supra
    4.     Select ‘install Ubuntu’
    5.     Go through the Ubuntu install until you get to select the install drive
    6.     Once you get to the install portion it will ask you to select from one of 4 options. Select ‘Manually select partition’
    7.     Select the “Free Space” where we opened up some of the drive
    8.     You will need to create 2 partitions, I usually create the swap partition at the end of the drive
    a.     First I create the swap
                                              i.    Set at the end of the drive
                                             ii.    Set size to 1024 mb
                                            iii.    Set type to ‘swap’
    b.     Second create the ext 4 partition
                                              i.    Set to beginning of drive
                                             ii.    Set to remainder of the space
                                            iii.    Set type to ext4
                                            iv.    Set mount point to /
    9.     Finish the install and boot into Ubuntu
    10.   You will notice that your wireless is ‘disabled by hardware’ This is fine for the time being and we will worry about this after the kali install. If we fix it now for some reason after installing kali we get the error again and would just need to fix it again.
    Kali Linux install
    1.     Place USB drive into the laptop and press the “Lenovo boot” button next to the power button
    2.     Select ‘Boot Menu’
    3.     Select ‘EFI USB Device (Name of drive)’ Mine stated Leef Supra
    4.     From the grub menu select ‘install kali linux’ both graphical and text work. I much prefer text install
    5.     You will get a few errors through the install but that is fine
    6.     The first we see is about network hardware and ‘load missing firmware from removable media?’ – Select ‘no’
    7.     Then select no ethernet card
    8.     It will have you name your machine then it will ask you for the root password
    a.     If you want to just use root *not recommended* place the password here
    b.     If you wish to use a non-root account then leave these blank and it will ask you for a name, username, and password of the new machine *Very Recommended* - this will also add this user to the sudoers file
    9.     It will then ask you to ‘partition disks’
    10.   Select manual
    11.   Now here is where it can get a little confusing so read twice click once
    12.   Select the USB drive from this list
    13.   Mine shows up under (sdb) – Leef Supra
    a.     It could be sdc, sdd, sde, etc… depending on how many drives you have plugged in.
    14.   You should see one primary drive that is 3gb or so that is formatted as FAT32. – DO NOT TOUCH THIS PARTITION!
    15.   You should see the remainder of this drive as ‘FREE SPACE’ select that
    16.   Create a partition at the end at size 1024mb and swap
    17.   Then create another one for the remainder of the drive and set it to ext4 with mountpoint of /
    18.   Continue through the install after you should see an error warning you that ‘you may not be able to boot’ that is fine, select continue
    19.   Then select from the menu of all the options ‘continue without bootloader’
    20.   It should finish up then reboot on its own.

    First setup/boot/fix grub
    1.     You should  be able to boot up into GRUB2 menu now.
    2.     You may not see kali linux in this menu (make sure you have your towel and don’t panic!)
    3.     Boot into Ubuntu
    4.     Once you log in you should see that you still cannot use wireless due to being locked by hardware
    5.     This is expected
    6.     Let’s fix grub then we will come back to fixing wireless
    7.     Plug in your device to connect to the internet (USB Tethering or USB Ethernet)
    8.     Once you verify that you now have an internet connection run the following from terminal
    a.     ‘sudo add-apt-repository ppa:danielrichter2007/grub-customizer’
    b.     ‘sudo apt-get update’
    c.     ‘sudo apt-get install grub-customizer’
    9.     You can also edit the grub.cfg manually if you know what you are doing… I did not
    10.   Open grub  customizer
    11.   It should auto populate and you should see ‘debian (kali linux)’ somewhere in the list
    12.   It should be mounted to /dev/sdb2 or /dev/sdc2 depending on how many devices you have
    13.   At this point go ahead and save
    14.   Reboot and test that you can get into each OS
    15.   This is where my inexperience got me. I spent 2 of my days so I am including this error: If when you boot into Kali you get an error somewhere that says ‘/bin/sh: can’t access tty: job control turned off’ look above it for an error that looks similar to ‘ALERT! /dev/sdc2 does not exist. Dropping to a shell!!’
    a.     That error is due to the mount point being incorrect in grub, reboot and from within grub highlight the kali boot. Press ‘e’ then towards the bottom you should see ‘root=/dev/sdc2’ change this to ‘root=/dev/sdb2’ again the number doesn’t matter just make sure it stays the same.
    b.     Press F10
    c.     If this boots fine then you will need to go back and fix the grub.cfg or load into Ubuntu and open grub customizer again, it should fix this
    16.   Now you have 3 working OS on the machine with one being on a USB! Congrats!
    17.   You can remove the USB with no worry of screwing up your install, but you will not be able to boot into Kali Linux until you replace it. I would suggest only removing it and replacing it while the machine is powered off, but that’s just me.
    Fix Wireless
    Now is the time to do what probably ¾ of you came here for. FIX THE DANG WIRELESS. This is a huge problem from Lenovo’s side that I hope they realize how important Linux is and will fix. I won’t hold my breath though.
    Log into Ubuntu : This is well documented in the following forum post on page 3 by user Haohe:
    http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2215044&page=3
    His has you download quite a large file, mine should be much smaller.
    https://www.dropbox.com/s/puxnnoft3gn2b6l/WiFiFix.zip
    1.     Download the attached package with the fix.
    2.     Connect your USB internet device (tether or ethernet)
    3.     Place the packages somewhere easy to access, in this example I will place them under ~/Desktop/WiFiFix
    4.     Type ‘cd ~/Desktop/WiFiFix/’
    5.     Now we need to prep the tools we need.
    6.     Type ‘sudo apt-get update’ – we did this before, but you know, just in case
    7.     Type ‘sudo apt-get install linux-headers-`uname –r`’   Note around uname-r they are the ` symbol not the ‘ this is located just above the tab on the same key as ~.
    8.     Type ‘make’
    9.     Type ‘sudo cp /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko ~/ideapad-laptop.ko.backup’
    10.   Type ‘sudo cp ~/Desktop/WiFiFix/ideapad-laptop.ko /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/’
    11.   Type ‘sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop’
    12.   Type ‘sudo modprobe ideapad-laptop’
    13.   Type ‘sudo rfkill unblock all’
    14.   Type ‘sudo modprobe -r ideapad-laptop’
    15.   Type ‘sudo mv ~/ideapad-laptop.ko.backup /lib/modules/3.13.0-24-generic/kernel/drivers/platform/x86/ideapad-laptop.ko’
    16.   Next we need to blacklist the ideapad module
    17.   Type ‘sudo echo 'blacklist ideapad-laptop' > /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    a.     The first time I tried this it wouldn’t work. So I did the following
    b.     ‘sudo touch /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    c.     ‘sudo vim /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist-ideapad.conf’
    d.     Enter     blacklist ideapad-laptop
    e.     Exit and save
    18.   Reboot your Yoga 2 13
    19.   Boot into kali and see if you have wireless, if you do then you are done. If not we will need to repeat this process with one small little change.
    Kali Wifi Fix
    1.     Copy the sources.list from the package provided
    2.     Replace /etc/apt/sources.list with the included
    3.     Some of the file path changes but the process remains the same from here.
    Congratulations you now have 3 OSes one portable to other machines and working wifi!
    Thank you

  • Windows Update in Endless Loop of 'Installing updates" and "Undoing changes" on New Windows 8.1 Pro Install

    I am setting new Windows 8.1 Pro computers, and am installing Windows 8.1 Pro to bare drives.  Everything goes fine until Windows Update starts installing updates, and then the computer goes for hours installing updates, and then "We
    could not complete the updates Undoing changes".   It's an endless loop. It seems to be the same 38 updates.  This is a recent phenomenon.  I have not run into this until the last week or two on several new computer installs.
    Again these are brand new installs, so something is clearly wrong with the Windows updates.
    If anyone can please tell me how to avoid this, it would be much appreciated.
    Michael

    Hi Michael,
    "  This is a recent phenomenon"
    Have you made any modifications to the machines ?
    To resolve this issue ,running the built-in troubleshoot tool is a very good beginning .It will automatically diagnostic the windows update components and check the configurations for us .
     Control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Troubleshooting\Fix problems with Windows Update
    If there are antivirus software installed in these machines, please turn off them temporarily to have a check.
    The command line included in the link as S.Sengupta posted is very useful and convenient to repair the windows corrupted files .We can have a try .
    "sfc /scannow" ,"DISM.EXE /online /cleanup-image /restorehealth "
    We also can check the windowsupdate.log for more information to troubleshoot this issue .
     Run "windowsupdate.log"
    If you have trouble in analyzing the log ,please upload them to the OneDrive and paste the link here .
    Best regards
