List of operators in OWB mapping using OMB Plus

Hi,
I got a situation where I need to find out the list of operators names and its type that I used in a mapping. I tried to search but could not find it. Can any body help me regarding this.
Thanks in advance
Yeswanth

Try this and similarly you can get all operator.
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'MAP_NAME' GET TABLE OPERATORS
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'MAP_NAME' GET VIEW OPERATORS
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'MAP_NAME' GET TRANSFORMATION OPERATORS
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'MAP_NAME' GET TABLE_FUNCTION OPERATORS

Inserting sql scripts in OWB 10g using OMB PLUS

Hey burleson, thanks for the reply..
Infact i am new to OWB and my question can be very silly to you.
Infact i have 1 source table in OWB named 'SALGRADE' which contains data and i have 1 target table named 'TARGET_SALGRADE' which has the same structure as the source table.
The script i have run and tested is as such :
INSERT INTO TARGET_SALGRADE
(GRADE,
LOSAL,
HISAL)
SELECT
GRADE,
LOSAL,
HISAL
FROM SCOTT.SALGRADE;
I have tested it in sqlplus and the update has been done.
Can you please tell me how do i proceed in OMB PLUS and how do i write the script there??
Regards,
Amrish

You can run SQL scripts using the SQLPLus activity in a process flow.
But the traditional mechanism to move data in OWB is using mappings. The post below might be interesting if you know SQL to understand how mappings are constructed;

How to reconcile procedure or function in a mapping using OMB Plus?

HI,
Could any one please explain, how to reconcile a procedure or function used in a mapping?
Thank you,
Regards,
Gowtham Sen.

Hi,
You can only reconcile Inbound (from Procedure to the mapping) :
OMBRECONCILE PROCEDURE \
'/[Project_name]/[Module_name]/[Procedure_name]
TO MAPPING '[Mapping_name]' \
OPERATOR '[for example name of a Post-Mapping Process in the mapping]' \
USE (RECONCILE_STRATEGY 'REPLACE', MATCHING_STRATEGY 'MATCH_BY_OBJECT_ID')
Hope that will help.
Best Regards

[Urgent] List the tables which are in a mapping using OMB ?

Hello,
Does anyone know how I can list the table names which are contained in a mapping by using the OMB language ?
After with this list I'll retrieve the properties of the extraction and loading hints (by using the OMBRETRIEVE command).
Thanks in advance for your help !
Regards,
Florent

Hi Florent
Something like the following will retrieve the table operators in a map:
set table_ops [OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING '$mapname' GET TABLE OPERATORS]
As an example of navigating the map using OMB the tcl below will traverse the map (change the mapname variable and run in the context of the module containing the map) - the results are written to a textfile in /tmp/map.txt. You can see how the operators are navigated and the connections queried, each operator is listed and the connected operators.
Cheers
David
set mapname EXAMPLE_17_21
set ops [OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING '$mapname' GET OPERATORS]

Creating Configuration in OWB 11gR2 using OMB+ Scripts

Hi All,
Please help how to create a configuration pointing to another OWB Repository using OMB+ scripts.Also how to change the Active Deployment Location for a module using OMB+ Script.

Hi
Here is how you can add a new location to a module and set its configuration setting to this location (ADC);
OMBALTER ORACLE_MODULE 'TGT_MOD' ADD REF LOCATION 'ADC'
OMBALTER ORACLE_MODULE 'TGT_MOD' SET PROPERTIES (DB_LOCATION) VALUES ('ADC')

Problem using OMB*Plus

Hello,
I'm getting this error when trying to connect to design repository via OMB*Plus:
"OMB01118: Could not connect to repository! PRS-00306: Internal Error: Could not undo reservation for client .
Please contact Oracle Support with the stack trace and details on how to reproduce it."
Here's the interesting part:\
1) I CAN connect to the same repos. from OWB client AND
2) I can connect to this repository from a different box using OMB*PLus.
Further, OMB*PLus itself on the box in question is not screwed up, as I can connect to repos. on other boxes!
What could the problem be?
Thanks in advance,
Alex.

I went further with investigating my scripting problem:
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'OWBRT92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
OMB01118: Could not connect to repository! Database connection error!
So I tried to alter pieces of my connect statement:
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:wrong USE REPOSITORY 'OWBRT92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
API0420: Error message: Io exception: Connection refused(DESCRIPTION=(TMP=)(VSNN
UM=153092608)(ERR=12514)(ERROR_STACK=(ERROR=(CODE=12514)(EMFI=4))))
API0424: Please check if the the Oracle Service Name is correct.
Obviously, connect string to database is OK !
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'OWBRT92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
API0420: Error message: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
And obviously, repository user is well identified !
Since I tried using either 'SINGLE_USER_MODE', 'MULTIPLE_USER_MODE' and nothing and it brings the very laconic same OMB01118 message, I guess it has to deal with "use repository clause
I tried to alter it to see what happens:
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'WRONG' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
...but it brings the very same OMB01118 message.
Now I tried to connect to development repository:
OMBCONNECT OWBDEV92/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'OWBDEV92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
Connected.
Well, cool, 'means I can connect to devt. repository but I want to deploy to runtime and if I usE:
OMBDEPLOY SPECIFICATION FROM C:\TEMP\deploytest.xml
it yields:
OMB05608: Connection to Runtime Platform has not been made.
Well, what can I do ?
Documentation B12187_02_Warehouse Builder Scripting Reference.pdf (chap. 2-12, page 48) mentions a OMBCONNECT_RUNTIME command that does not exist and the example is a strict copy of OMBCONNECT (even the example does not use OMBCONNECT_RUNTIME)
OMB+> OWMBCONNECT_RUNTIME
invalid command name "OWMBCONNECT_RUNTIME"
I'm really stuck.
Does anyone else connect to a runtime repository to deploy from a xml file ?
Thanks

How to stop a scheduled job using OMB*Plus ?

Hello everyone,
I use a OMB*Plus script to deploy a project in various environments. This includes scheduled jobs.
In this context, I need to stop the schedules of the previous versions to avoid a script crash.
I found the OMBSTOP command thad could do, but I need to retrieve the job ID of the schedule I want to stop. And I don't know how to get the Job ID.
I could get it from a previous launch and save it somewhere, but it wouldn't work if the schedule was manually stopped and restarted. Maybe is there a command that lists the running / scheduled jobs and their IDs? I didn't find it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cedric.

Frankly, I cannot see where this is available via pure OMB+, however you could back-door it if if you can figure out how to get these values from the public views (I would guess from the "Scheduling Views" section at http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/owb.102/b28225/toc.htm).
Then you could use my SQL library from OMB+ to get these values and stop the schedules before deploying. you can save this file as omb_sql_library.tcl and then just "source /path/to/omb_sql_library.tcl in your own script to make the functions available in your script.

{code}
So you would want to connect to the control center, query for scheduled jobs, stop them, and then continue on with your deployment. I assume that you also need to pause and check that an scheduled job in mid-run has time to exit before moving ahead. You could do a sleep loop querying against system tables looking for active sessions running mappings and waiting until they are all done or something if you really want to bulletproof the process.
Hope this helps,
Mike

How to properly create a calendar using OMB*Plus, to schedule a workflow ?

Hello all,
I want to schedule a workflow when deploying via OMB*Plus.
It looks like I have a syntax error, but this happens even with the example given on
[the OMBCREATE CALENDAR documentation|http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/owb.102/b28225/omb_4create_1.htm#sthref1427]
My code is:
OMBCREATE CALENDAR 'SCH_DELTA_test2' ADD SCHEDULE \
SET PROPERTIES (REPEAT_EXPRESSION)\
VALUES ('FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=TUE WED THU FRID SAT;BYHOUR=12;BYMINUTE=0;BYSECOND=0') ]
If I copy-paste an example from the doc, the last line becomes :
VALUES ('FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=20') ]
The result is:
OMB00001: Encountered \' at line: 1, column: 95. Was expecting one of: <INTEGER_LITERAL> ...
<FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL> ...
<QUOTED_STRING> ...
The position line: 1, column: 95 is the opening quote of the last line, just before FREQ=
I can't find any way to get this working. If anyone see something wrong or missing, please advise. Thanks in advance.
Cedric.

Hello Oleg,
I followed your advice, but OMB*Plus doesn't like it, as it seems :
the code:
OMBCREATE CALENDAR 'CAl_SCH_DELTA' ADD SCHEDULE 'SCH_DELTA' SET PROPERTIES (REPEAT_EXPRESSION) VALUES ('FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=20')
the error:
OMB00001: Encountered SCH_DELTA at line: 1, column: 49. Was expecting one of: <E
OF>
"SET" ...

Schedule OWB mapping using OEM

Hi,
I am trying to call OWB mappings from the OEM (using the GUI).
I have mappings which have input parameters. So calling the mapping as a PL/SQL block is not going to work.
using the .MAIN method as these parameters will change for every run.
I am seeing if there is another way to add these mappings as programs and then add them to a chain. Having the mapping input parameters as program attributes.
Please share if you know of a way to get this done.
Thanks,
AM

Hi,
There is no need to detect..if there are any pictures stored in the column which is possible in LONG u cannot even detect the length. You will just ahve to write a procedure which will move the data to col1 ig the data in the LONG column is less than 4000 and it will automatically move it to col2 when the data length in the LONG column is greater than 4000.
first declate 2 variables with varchar2(4000) and a temp cursor for long column. Open a cursor and and equate the variables with a substring function w.r.t the v_temp.
ex:
v_notes1 :=substr(v_temp,1,4000)
v_notes2 :=substr(v_temp,4001,4000)
insert the other records as it is. This will work.

How to bind mapping input parameter in process flow using OMB Plus

Hi
I have created a process flow with a mapping.
This mapping has a input parameter, that I want to bind to a variable using OMBPlus
OMBALTER PROCESS_FLOW '$process' MODIFY PARAMETER 'P_EOD_DATE_IN' SET PROPERTIES (BINDING) VALUES ('V_EOD_DATE') does not work as P_EOD_DATE is NOT a process parameter
neither does
OMBALTER PROCESS_FLOW '$process' MODIFY PARAMETER '$mapname/P_EOD_DATE_IN' SET PROPERTIES (BINDING) VALUES ('V_EOD_DATE') as the reference '$mapname/P_EOD_DATE_IN' is not valid.
Any suggestions ?

Thank you Oleg for your reply.
Well this thing did work, however there are some special characters being entered. For example if there are few spaces in my output it will replace it with some special character in my output file in place of that spaces; like it will create a small box like icon.
Now what i am trying to get the output in an .xls or .csv. If you look into the code i am appending everything i require line by line in my output file. So my question is that is it possible to put everything in the same format which is possible in .txt file output.

Error while exporting using OMB+ in unix

Hi we are trying to export the OWB project using OMB+ ,
i wrote a shell script which contains this
/oradir/dkfndr/owb/owb/bin/unix/OMBPlus.sh /finapps/dkfndr/owb/owb_export.tcl
the tcl script does the export stuff , we got the following error,
srxgpor11dv01:/finapps/dkfndr/owb(1058)$ /finapps/dkfndr/owb/owb_export.sh
cat: cannot open setowbenv.sh
/oradir/dkfndr/owb/owb/bin/unix/OMBPlus.sh: ../admin: does not exist
any clues ,
Thanks in advance
Suresh

I've had issues with paths in UNIX on several occassions, so I now just ensure that my shell scripts 'cd' to the owb/bin/unix directory first
cd /oradir/dkfndr/owb/owb/bin/unix/
./OMBPlus.sh /finapps/dkfndr/owb/owb_export.tcl
I have also had cases in UNIX where the install left me with at least on of the JDK directories with improperly set permissions.

Executing an OWB mapping from sqlplus

Hi
I am trying to run an OWB mapping using the OWB provided script sqlplus_exec_template.sql. Here is the syntax I use:
@Script\sql\sqlplus_exec_template.sql OWB_RUN_OWNER CODE_LOC PLSQL MAPPING_TI "," ","
I am able to successfully execute my task when I use the above script. However, when the account pertaining to 'CODE_LOC' is locked, the script fails and gives me an error message that the account is locked.
Our security standards expect the CODE_LOC account to be locked. Is there a way around it ? When the mapping is executed, does the Runtime repository owner lookup the task from the Code location or attempts to connect to the account ?
Can someone advise me on whether I can successfully execute a mapping that is deployed to a locked account ?
Thanks

Hi
The only way I can think of is when the account X is locked, to have granted execute on the packages for the map to schema Y which is unlocked and execute the package MAIN procedure/function from schema Y.
Cheers
David

OMB plus Creating Locations Modules And Importing the Metadata?

Hi All,
First of all I would like to thank you all of you in advance for all your time and concern. I have serious of questions and I will ask them in 3 different portions as they are slightly different.
How can I implement the steps below using OMB plus? If you could provided sample script and notation it will be highly appreciated.
-- Creating an Oracle Location for a Schema and Registering it
-- Creating an Module and relating it to the location that was created.
-- Importing the metadata for all the objects in this Schema in to this module.
For example,
You have a schema called ORACLE_SRC. I need to create the location and module for this schema and tie them each other. Then I need to import all the metadata for all the objects in this ORACLE_SRC schema. During this import all the preserve statements should be unchecked. And I need to accomplish all these using OMB plus and TCL scripting.
-- Creating an Non Oracle (SQL server 2005) Location for a database and Registering it
-- Creating an Module and relating it to the location that was created.
-- Importing the metadata for all the objects in this Schema in to this module.
For example,
You have a schema called SQLSERVER_SRC. I need to create the location and module for this schema and tie them each other. Then I need to import all the metadata for all the objects in this SQLSERVER_SRC schema. During this import all the preserve statements should be unchecked. And I need to accomplish all these using OMB plus and TCL scripting.
-- Creating an Flat File Location for a folder structure and Registering it
-- Creating an Module and relating it to the location that was created.
For example,
You have a schema called FLATFILE_SRC. I need to create the location and module for this schema and tie them each other.
Thanks again for all your help and concern!
Kind Regards,
Mike

In addition to the performance issue above I have faced an extremely more important problem. When I have used the same logic for importing Materialized views I am getting an error at the last step of the script. It is exactly the same case also for EXTERNAL_TABLE objects. TABLE and VIEW objects are fine. OMBIMPORT command throw the error message below.
PUB04201: Encountered an internal fatal error during processing of oracle module XXX_DMY_DWPROD_TST: unsupported obj type.
I would like to mention that MATERIALIZED_VIEW is the object name I took from OWB scripting Reference guide. I have tried couple other naming conventions too but it didn't work.
Strange thing is If I were to change MATERIALIZED_VIEW to TABLE it works but the materialized view gets imported into 'Tables' folder under the module.
Please help?
     #IMPORT FOR MATERIALIZED VIEWS STARTS
#pull the names of the object inthe schema
     set MVIEWLIST {}
     set sqlStr "select distinct Mview_Name from all_mviews where owner = upper('$DbNm') order by Mview_Name"
     #execute the query
     set oraRs [oracleQuery $oraConn $sqlStr]
     #Loop through the list of objects

Deployment of mappings other than OMB Plus

I have a question regarding deployment of mappings via OMB Plus. The deployment staff is facing problem in using OMB Plus. I want to ask is there anyother way to deploy mappings other than deploying them via OMB plus. I tried to generate the pl/sql of the mapping and run this sql script in the same schema of other enivornment, but it gave me following error.
ORA-01403: no data found
ORA-06512: at "REPOSITORY_SCHEMA.WB_RT_MAPAUDIT_UTIL", line 1027
ORA-06512: at "STAGING_SCHEMA.MAPPING_01", line 2664
ORA-06512: at line 4
I believe that by deploying it from OMB Plus, some audit entries are logged in Repository schema which can not be done by executing the package script simply in sqlplus.
Can anyone suggest me any other way for deployment of mappings ?

IMHO, the answer is no. The problem is OWB runtime needs in repository information about installed runnable objects,
but there is no any public information about structure of OWB repository or public API for deploying except OMBPlus and OWB Client.
Look at this threads
Problem Running Process Flow When Database Objects Deployed Outside of OWB
Deploying without Deploy
As you can see from second link Jwvandij (Jaap) user explored method of deployment with direct modification of OWB repository for old OWB release.
