Loading Dimension without using Adapters

Hi,
Without using adapter(HAL & DIM), there is any way to load the dimensions in Hyperion 9.3.1. In Hyperion 11.1.1, we have Outlineload utility to load the dimension, like that any utility is available for hyperion 9.3.1.
Thanks,
Lakshmi

Hi,
There is Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) with all its connection adapters. Check John Goodwin's blog for the in-depth reference.
If you are going to deal with EPMA though, you can use EPMA file generator to generate dimension load files which can directly be fed into EPMA.

Reporting on Degenerate Dimension without using aggregation

Hi Gurus,
I have 2 fact tables F1 and F2 and a conformed dimension D. Both the fact tables contains degenerate dimensions.
So I have created degenerated dimesnion in BMM layer DDF1 and DDF2 corresponding to F1 and F2 resp.
I want to generate report using DDF1, DDF2 and D without using any column from F1 or F2(basically I dont need any aggregation in my reports, but more than 1 fact table is used).
But I receive error while trying to implement this. I have created the dimensions and defined content mappings for the fact tables.
I had followed the steps given at [http://www.rittmanmead.com/2010/01/oracle-bi-ee-10-1-3-4-1-modeling-degenerate-dimensions-fact-attributes/]
Does this type of reporting without using aggregation possible in OBIEE?
Thanks in advance.

If you want it in pivot view it is not possible for ad-hoc to give it to end-users without measure columns.
You can do this in table view for only dimension columns wihtout measures easily possible.
If you want the look of pivot and same as results of pivot in your table view then you follow this blog
http://gerardnico.com/wiki/dat/obiee/table_to_pivot
UPDATE POST
the rittman blog mentioned follow that properly every step is given correctly,according to me your doing mistake at degenerate dimensions or conformed dimensions...that is why the error is throwing on the fact column that you are using.Please setup once again each and every step correctly you will achieve it.
Cheers,
KK

Using a set from one dimension to filter a set on another dimension without using the slicer

I have a complex mdx query. In one step within this I want to restrict the members of one set to those that have data in the cells defined by this first set and a second set on a different dimension. It is not the values in those intersection
cells I want to end up with but just the restricted members of the first set. I am then going to cross join this with the 'All' member of the second set. The point of doing this is that the results can be joined with a union query to other results
with the same dimensionality.
I get what I want, in simplified way, from the following:
with set x as filter([Org].[Dept].[Dept].members,
[Proj].[ProjHierarchy].[Proj].&[100028])
select [Measures].[Finance] on columns, x on rows from projects
This shows the total finance for each dept member that has any finance against the specified project. However, this won't do as what is supplied to the mdx is a string parameter that is converted to a list of members using StrToSet and the MDX above won't
accept this. I do not wish to use the slicer because of the complex overall MDX structure. Is there any way to make something like the above work?

Hi Kenneth
does this set have the required dimensionality? :
extract(
nonempty(
( [Org].[Dept].[Dept].members
, [Proj].[ProjHierarchy].[Proj].&[100028])
, [Measures].[Finance])
,[Org].[Dept] )
I'm not sure about the hierachy on the last line. Maybe: [Org].[Dept].[Dept]

Selecting Multiple dimensions without using Dashboard Prompt

Hi All,
We have and requirement where we need to given an option to users where they should be able to select dimensions values to check set of reports in dashboard based on these selected values.
As we know one way is to have dashboard prompt and all the reports which we need to analyze under this, but in dashboard prompt if we more values selected values will take more time.
Instead we want in one page all the dimension values will be there and we need some thing like check box option in front of dimension values and based on the dimension values selection, we need to analyze reports available in another dashboard page.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Som

Thanks John for your reply.
I'm not sure this is going to help me, may be my question is little bit confusing. Let me explain with some example.
Lets us consider a dashboard page where we have All US States as global filter. Suppose by default global filter will have All values but now every time we want to analyze by selected states now to perform this we need to edit global filter and add States by which we want to analyze.
By this option we are able to get the result what we want, but problem is that suppose every time we want to analyze by these states only the every time when we login we need to edit global filter again and again. which we don't want to do again and again.
Now my questions are:-
1. Is there a way to save values selected into global filter for future use by which we cab avoid selecting values again and again (one way is that we can add defaults in global filter edit mode but can we do this outside.)
2. Or can we provide in one page just to select the values of analysis like dimensions and next to dimension like check box just to select values and in other pages based of the values selected.

Somu

How do you create an array without using a shell on the FP?

I want to be able to read the status of front panel controls (value, control box selection, etc.) and save it to a file, as a "configuration" file -- then be able to load it and have all the controls set to the same states as were saved in the file. I was thinking an array would be a way to do this, as I have done that in VB. (Saving it as a text file, then reading lines back into the array when the file is read and point the control(s) values/states to the corresponding array element.
So how do I create an array of X dimensions without using a shell on the front panel? Or can someone suggest a better way to accomplish what I am after? (Datalogging doesn't allow for saving the status by a filename, so I
do not want to go that route.)

Thanks so much m3nth! This definitely looks like what I was wanting... just not really knowing how to get there.
I'm not sure I follow all the icons. Is that an array (top left with 0 constant) in the top example? And if so, that gets back to part of my original question of how to create an array without using a shell on the FP. Do I follow your diagram correctly?
If I seem a tad green... well I am.
I hope you understand the LabVIEW environment and icons are still very new to me.
Also, I had a response from an NI app. engineer about this problem. He sent me a couple of VI's that he threw together approaching this by using Keys. (I still think you are pointing to the best solution.) I assume he wouldn't mind m
e posting his reply and the VI's for the sake of a good, thorough, Roundtable discussion. So here are his comments with VI's attached:
"I was implementing this exact functionality this morning for an application I'm working on. I only have five controls I want to save, but they are all of different data types. I simply wrote a key for each control, and read back that key on initialization. I simply passed in property node values to the save VI at the end, and passed the values out to property nodes at
the beginning. I've attached my initialize and save VI's for you to view. If you have so many controls that this would not be feasible, you may want to look into clustering the controls and saving the cluster as a datalog file.

Create & Load Attribute without Outline Load Utility? Add Many Attributes?

1. Is it possible to create and load attribute dimensions without using Outline Load Utility? How?

DIM: how to load metadata to Essbase without using rule files

Hi,
The Essbase adapter has been installed in the informatica PowerCenter (v8.1.1). We want to create a Essbase target definition to load metadata. In the Table Creation Wizard, we select Table Type: Dynamic dimension building (Type 3), but it needs to specify Rules file in the Column Creation Wizard.
Any method to load metadata into Essbase without using Rules file?
Thank you in advance.

You could load the data into Essbase without Rule file by means of free form loading which the Datasource would be a file.

Is there any way to force the applet to load the file without using cache?

Hi,
I have the applet that renders some data from a file specified as the parameter. The problem is that the user can do something, that changes the input file and reloads the page, but the applet renders old data (from browser cache most probably)
Is there any way to force the applet to load the file without using cache?
Regards,
Zdenek

The initial view (IV) settings within a PDF file are static tags - they can't be made to dynamically-adapt based on the window dimensions,it's the renderer (Acrobat, Reader, or whatever else is opening the file) that decides if and how it will follow the IV requested by the file header.
It would be possible to use a Page Open action on the first page of the file, which does some nasty math with the various doc.*WindowRect objects to work out how much "wasted" space there is, and then set the doc.layout and doc.zoomType properties - but page actions are a different concept to IV as the zoom will reset itself every time that page is viewed. Users don't like their application apparently fiddling with the zoom level without being told to!

How do I load music on a new ipod without using itunes?

I am having tons of problems with getting itunes to pull up on my computer. I believe that my computer has a pretty nasty virus in it and it is causing problems with many of my programs (internet explorer, norton, and other programs). I am having my computer worked on later this week so I hope to get the virus taken care of. In the meantime I would like to load some music that I already have on my computer on to my ipod without using itunes.
When I connect my ipod via the USB cable and pull up that drive I see the files: Calendars, Contacts, and Notes. I am assuming that I need to create a "Music" file that I will then drag-and-drop the MP3 copies from my computer to the newly created file. Is this correct? If not....then what do I need to do?
Thanks for the much needed help.

MDX : How to use filter on a dimension without showing it OR merge 2 attributes of the same dimension?

Hello everyone,
I'm kind of newbie with MDX language, I'm trying to get filtered measures from a cube with a specific layout.
Here is my exemple :
I want to get all the "order numbers" where the "invoice" cost is more than 300. Each invoice is linked with an ID, one order number can have several invoices.
So what I do is a select request with 2 dimensions : "order num" and "id_invoice"
Here is the result : I get all the cost sorted by "order num" and I can easealy identify those who are above 300
order num
Id_invoice
cost

How is it possible to use a filter on a dimension without showing it or merge 2 attributes of the same dimension ?
The problem is that if I show "id" column, the filter doesn't work properly : it compares 300 with the total cost of the whole order and does not compare with each invoice (which could be under 300 ! - see "KO" in Total2 column)
Here is the request I use to generate this result :
with
member [Measures].[Total]
as (
[TP].[ID INVOICE].[All],
[TP].[ORDER NUM].currentmember,
[Measures].[COST]
member [Measures].[Total2]
as (
IIF([Measures].[COST] >
300, "ok",
"KO")
select
{[Measures].[COST],[Measures].[Total],[Measures].[Total2]}
on
columns,
Filter
             [TP].[ORDER NUM].[ORDER
NUM].members *
             [TP].[ID INVOICE].[ID

             ,[Measures].[COST]

Thank you for your help !

Hi Olivier,
hereunder a similar query against the AW. For all order numbers, we sum all lines above 30 without diplaying the line numbers:
WITH

IIF(
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount] > 30,
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount],
null
MEMBER [Measures].[aggr lines above 30] AS
SUM(
exists(
[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Line].[Sales Order Line],
[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].currentmember
[Measures].[lines above 30]
SELECT
[Measures].[Internet Sales Amount],
[Measures].[aggr lines above 30]
} ON 0,
[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].[Sales Order Number] ON 1
FROM ( SELECT

[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].&[SO51177]:
[Internet Sales Order Details].[Sales Order Number].&[SO51178]
} ON 1
FROM [Adventure Works] )
I reduced the cube with a subselect.

Loading Dimensions using Outline Load utility in 11.1.2

Hi All,
I tried to use the Outline Load utility for loading dimensions in Planning (11.1.2). The file available is OutlineLoad.cmd.template. I tried running that but doesn't work. So i remaned it to OutlineLoad.cmd and tried but it still doesn't work. Have there been any changes regarding how to use it in 11.1.2?
Cheers,
Abhishek

Hi John and Rahul,
I navigated to the location mentioned by Rahul and entered "OutlineLoad.cmd.template". it just goes to the next line and another window opens up asking which program you want to use.
If I enter only "OutlineLoad.cmd" so that it'll return the parameters I need to give, then it says "The syntax of the command is incorrect".
What command do I need to give? Earlier in 11x, I would just enter "OutlineLoad.cmd" and it would give an error with the expected parameters.

11i load balancing web nodes without use of Hardware http load balancer

I am looking at note 217368.1 (Advanced Configurations and Topologies for Enterprise Deployments of E-Business Suite 11i) and some other notes on load balancing but some aspects are not clear.
Aim is to implement load balancing traffic to web nodes without using Hardware ( BigIP, cisco etc) for HTTP layer load balancing.
Which is more preferable between dns or Apache Jserv load balancer ?
Need details like failover capabilities, death detection of node, functionality testing and ways to monitor Apache Jserv load balancer.
Any help in this regard is welcome .
thx
arun

Oracle recommends using loadbalancing hardware rather than using DNS. If you want the features you mention above, you will need a hardware loadbalancer.

Dual ISP load balancing with 2 routers and 2 FW without using BGP

Hi all,
Based on the attachment diagram, is the design viable?
Do anyone has a similar deployment before and can you share with me the config guide to this because I'm at lost on a few configs:
1. On core switch A and B, I understood we need to have a default route pointing to the firewall interface. For this case, I have different IPs for the same context on both the firewalls.
So, how should the config be?
CoreSW_A(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.110
CoreSW_A(config)#ip route 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0 192.168.1.111
I don't think the above will work as the core switch will load balance the traffic to both firewalls even if one of the context is on standby mode?
2. The area from the firewall to the internet would all be public IP. Thus, if i put a switch in between the firewall and the router, then i would waste some public IP addresses but if i remove the switch, I would not have enough ports on the ASA firewall. What is the best recommended solution for this?
3. How do I load balance traffic to both R1 and R2 to their respective ISPs without using BGP? I may be using only a 2811 router.
Thanks alot!!.. really much looking forward for some guidance and tips on this as I havent found any guides on this deployment yet.. mostly are LAN HA.

For policy based routing, I would need to create route maps on the core switch itself right?
Correct me if I'm wrong, if i use route-maps, i would be assigning e.g. internal network A to go through firewall context A and internal network B to go through firewall context B.
Context A will only have path to Router A and context B will only have path to Router B. But if router B goes down, network B won't be able to access the Internet, right?
I'm not sure whether it's a PI or PA for this as the ISP will assign us a block of IP address, for example 202.111.1.8/29 (these IPs can be used for webservers, etc). There will also be a public IP of /30 on the serial interface to connect to their router.
Thanks alot..
