I'm sorry, sloppy reading on my part, simply read over the "send effect" bit.
I have to admit I don't know, I only ever used "what you already know how to do". But I think what you want to do will only be possible if Reason has a feature that works similar to Logics' *Software Monitoring* . Does it?
If it does, you'll need audio routing software (Soundflower, Jack OS or similar) to connect Logics' output to Reasons' input and back. But for Logic to output only one specific track to Reason and back... should be possible, but could be quite a puzzle, if not an unsurmountable piece of rocketbrainsurgery science. ...unless you solo the specific track and bounce it... but you cannot listen to the mix in realtime in that case. Plus you'll probably get combined latency issues, that are not handled by Logics' (Plug In) delay compensation settings.
What kind of effect is it? Maybe I (and anyone else) can point you to an AU plugin equivalent.

3) change the xdm file with above tagline , my xdm file is in below link-
C:\mw_bi_home\instances\instance1\bifoundation\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\catalog\SampleAppLite\root\shared\zia%2exdm

Windows 64-bit + OBIEE 11g + Internet Explorer 10

Not a question this time, just an observation about the interaction between OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 and IE 10 on 64-bit Windows.
After installing OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 on 64-bit Windows, the Analytics environment worked fine in IE 10. When starting BI Services from the Start menu everything was fine.
Prior to installing any patch sets, I installed the two Windows Services (Admin Server, Managed Server). At that point, the Analytics environment on Internet Explorer 10 would not work properly (Firefox was fine).
- The login screen has the User and Password fields all the way on the left of the screen, but I am able to log in to analytics.
- Clicking New...Analysis does nothing. No subject area list, no blank field where a list should be, just nothing. It's like clicking on air.
- Selecting Administration ... Manage Privileges takes me to the correct screen, but there is no scroll bar on the right side.
I accessed Programs and Features ... Installed Updates, and Uninstalled Windows Internet Explorer 10. This rolls IE back to IE 9.
After restarting the machine, Analytics 11.1.1.6.0 works just fine in IE9.
After installing the 11.1.1.6.9 patchset, Analytics still works just fine in IE9. After reinstalling IE10, Analytics is back to its same broken state.
Takeaway: Don't use IE10 with OBIEE 11g (at least through the 11.1.1.6.9 patchset) on 64-bit Windows.

Yup, same here using OBIEE 11.1.6.6 on Windows 7 64bit with IE 10. I do get the scrollbar in 'Manage privileges', however as a trade off my catalog will not load: the left tree only shows 'Shared Folders', the main screen does not load any of the content (just and endless loading animation), and both the 'open' and 'favorits' drop down menu remain empty.

OBIEE 11g Installer

Is using Sybase Rep Server with SAP HANA a possibility?

We have a customer has system that they are already using Sybase Replication Server. They are asking to add HANA and BusinessObjects BI Platform as a sidecar, to there system and remove the Java applications they are using for reporting. They are wondering if they can use Sybase Rep server to move the data into Hana instead of SLT.

If you have a SAP Business Suite system then SLT is the recommended approach since carries out a application level replication of sorts. However, for non SAP Business Suite systems you do have the option to use Sybase Replication Server for HANA. Ask your customer to speak to their SAP Account Manager and she/he will be able to advice them on the option.
Have a look at the link below for pointers:Replicating data to HANA using SAP Sybase Replication Server.

Obiee 11g and custom j2ee app using the same cookie name

Hi,
I wrote a same j2ee web application. i'am using authentification through a realm configured in the web.xml.
This web app is deployed in the same weblogic than obiee 11g. What i want to do is to embed my application in a dashboard using an iframe tag, and use the same login from analytics to my custom web app.
In this article http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11035_01/wls100/security/thin_client.html#wp1039551, it is said that by default, all web apps in the sames weblogic server are using the same cookie name so that they share authentification between them. However, i have read in the web that analytics in obiee 11g is using a cookie with the name "ORA_BIPS_NQID".
In the weblogic.xml of my custom application, i set the cookie-name parameter to ORA_BIPS_NQID. However, in the dashbord, it still prompt for authentification to my custom web app.
How can we share authentification between analytics and a custom web app in the same weblogic ?
NB : I dont want to pass the username et password through the url.
Thanks.

By default, if you don't specify a cookie-name in the weblogic.xml configuration file, the weblogic server create a cookie named JSESSIONID for your application. For exemple, if two applications use the default configuration, both of them will use the same cookie name which is JSESSIONID. In this case, when you log in the first application, your are automaticaly logged in the second application with the same credentials. I have already test this kind of integration and it works perfectly. You only need that the two applications are deployed in the same weblogic server.
Now, i want to have the same behaviour between obiee 11g and my custom application deployed in the same weblogic server. I read somewhere in the web that obiee 11g presentation service (analytics) is configured with a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID". So in the weblogic.xml configuration file of my web app, i specify a cookie-name value = "ORA_BIPS_NQID" to have the same cookie-name between the two application. But, it still not work. It prompt for authentification in the dashboards.
I now, that such an integration is possible, because the other bi applications (mapviewer, bipublisher,...) are actually other web applications. However when using, for exemple, maps in dashbords, the mapviwer application automaticaly user the credentials of the user connected in analytics.

Data and Dashboard Security using ROLES Variable in OBIEE 11g

Hi all,
I'm currently using OBIEE 11g. I'm wondering how to implement the security for data and dashboard in the 11g.
Below is the sample of how the security matrix requirement when I use the 10g version. In 10g, we usually use GROUP (for the data filter in RPD) and WEBGROUPS (for dashboard objects) variables in my initialization block to read from database. As we have 2 different variables, it is possible to control security separately for data and dashboard.
GROUP | Country
G1 | US
G2 | FR
G3 | UK
WEBGROUPS | Dashboard
WG1 | D1
WG2 | D1
WG3 | D1
WG1 | D2
WG2 | D2
WG1 | D3
WG3 | D3
WG3 | D4
Now, in 11g, the recommendation is to use ROLES variable (for application role). So, how would I apply the required security matrix above in 11g using just ROLES variable? Do I still create G1, G2, G3, WG1, WG2, and WG3 as application roles then only use G1-3 in the RPD to filter the data and only use WG1-3 in the analytics to serve as webgroups?
Any advice on this? Thank you very much.

"...Could you elaborate more?"
I mean that role creation and user->role assignment will be managed outside of to the obiee interface - whether that's via the database, LDAP, fmw etc.
Webgroup creation and assignment is managed within the obiee interface and I think that has a lot of benefits - generally you have people responsible for shared folders and dashboard creation, so having them responsible for webgroups and presentation permissions is preferable for me.
"are you saying that I use the role G1-3 only in the RPD, while using the role WG1-3"
Yes .. I'm assuming you have something like
G1 | US
G2 | FR
G3 | UK
WG1 | Finance
WG2 | Marketing
WG3 | Sales
Which becomes
R1 | US
R2 | FR
R3 | UK
R4 | Finance
R5 | Marketing
R6 | Sales
And John belongs to R1 and R4, Fred belongs to R2 and R4 etc. So you would set your data filters against R1-R3 and use R4-R6 like webgroups in the presentation services.

Robert

Is it possible to install Sybase Unwired Workspace in a separate machine

Hi all,
I have been using Sybase Unwired Workspace that got installed as part of the SUP 1.5.2 installation. To scale it further I now need ONLY the Workspace part of SUP to be installed in a couple of other workstations for my team members. Idea is to use it in similar way as other Java related development done using NWDS. I am not sure if this is possible and thus appreciate any help/workaround.
Thanks in advance,
Nilay
Edited by: Nilay Ghosh on Apr 19, 2011 4:01 PM

HI,
you can copy the Unwired Workspace to any machine - as it is eclipse based.
I recommend installing it on one Machine, then zip it and copy it to another machine.
in the unwired workspace you can configure the location of the sup server - where the mob's will be running.
you just have to take care with the blackberry keys if you want to sign your blackberry apps.

Division calculation using different filters in OBIEE 11g

Hello,
I have a requirement where I want to calculate division of same column using different filters in one report.
e.g. No. of Units (Where Active flag='A')/No. of units (Where Active flag='I').
I am using OBIEE 11g.
Thanks.

Try this:
((case when Active flag='A' then No. of Units end)*1.0)/
(case when Active flag='I' then No. of Units end)
It would nice if you create a new metric based on physical expression using rpd. If possible try to create it so that you can have aggregation after the calculation.
If helps pls mak as correct/helpful

Is it possible to execute OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5.0) Agents externally?

Hi all,
Is it possible to execute OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5.0) Agents externally i.e. using a dabase or shell script?
I have created an agent and scheduled it to execute a dashboard. But I would like to execute this agent once dataloading is completed, not at fixed hour.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
You can execute OBIEE 11g agents externally via ODI 11g:
"...2. Use BI EE Web Services and call ExecuteIbotNow method in the iBotService – This method will be called directly from ODI 11g..."

Read a file using Javascript in OBIEE

Hi All,
We are trying to display the content present in a flat file in OBIEE.
1. Is it possible to use the text object in dashboard to have a Javascript to read a text file present at the server side?
2. Is it possible to trigger a shell script which is available in the same box where OBIEE server resides?
Any valuable inputs on this will be really appreciated
Many Thanks,
RS

We are trying to display the content present in a flat file in OBIEE. BI Server can use text file as a data source, why don't you integrate it into the RPD and present it through to the client that way?
1. Is it possible to use the text object in dashboard to have a Javascript to read a text file present at the server side?Not so far as I know, because javascript on its own is client-side only.

Is it possible to use Custom Password Algorithm in SQLAuthenticator?

Dear All,
I need to use User table of my other application for OBIEE authentication.
I'm trying to use database tables as authentication provider in WebLogic.
But my password is using custom algorithm.
Similar like:
create or replace FUNCTION encpass
( p_username in varchar2, p_password in varchar2 ) return varchar2 is
begin
return ltrim( to_char( dbms_utility.get_hash_value(upper(p_username)||'##'||upper(p_password),
1000000000, power(2,30) ), rpad( 'X',29,'X')||'X' ) );
end digest;Is it possible to use custom algorithm on OBIEE authentication? If possible, how?
Thank you,
Eba

I had same situation like this & just put a custom function at application side, to convert the password in same format what saved in database.
While my wls setting was SHA-1 & PLAIN PASSWORD.
