Maximum length of member name in mapping

Hi Experts,
I am trying to migrate live data from Essbase to HFM version 11.1.1.3 using FDM. Maximum length of the member name of source accounts in Essbase that I have to load is upto 74 characters. What is the maximum permitted length of member names in FDM to be used in mappings?
I was able to load the mappings that I have created into FDM using a map loader but after the map import whenever I click on any item in the map area, a page displays saying 'Application error'. When I delete all the maps, the error goes away so I guess its some issue with the length of the source account member.
I checked the IIS logs and in the maps log I found a line saying the length of source accounts has exceeded the limit. Any suggestions about what I am trying to achieve can be done? I can not tweak anything at the Essbase side as its a live application. Please suggest.
Thanks & Regards!

FDM supports 75 characters in the source & target fields (v 11.1.2).
You may have restricted characters in your member names. Check the admin guide for a list.
And yes, this is possible. I've done it a number of times. Sorry for the brevity but hopefully this gets you moving forward.

Maximum Length of Element Names - 10.2

While defining of an XML schema in Oracle 10.2, is there any maximum limit on the number of characters that may be in an element's name? I've seen some write-ups mention 'recommendations' of 30 or 35 for earlier versions, but nothing that says there's a definite limit in v.10.2. I need to know because I have an assignment where I might need tags containing more than 35 characters. Thanks.

Hi
I already saw "long" names (don't remember exactly how much, but at least 80-100 characters...) for elements. The recommendation of 30 is probably due to the mapping of elements to object types. In fact the length of an identifier in an object type can be at most 30 characters.

Length of member name

Hi All,
Is there any function available by which we can get the length of the member.
Thanks

It depends on how/where you wan to use it.
In MDX you would use LEN(). You could use this in a member formula in an ASO database, or you could use it in an MDX query against both ASO and BSO databases.
I am not aware of a Calc script function to do this, but you could create a custom function to do it.

Maximum length of table name

Hi,
I am new to Abap. Can any one tell me what is the maximum laength of a table can be....In help.sap. i found that it is 18 characters... but when i am trying it here it is allowing to give only 16 letters... And the other error i am getting is the second character of table can´t be "_"..
Regards,
Shiva..

Yes, it is a little misleading. If you look at the data in DD02L, there is a table categories field in each record, notice that all names with TRANSP as the table category are 16 or less, but if you look at the INITTAB category, you will see that these can be up to 30 characters. The INITTAB category is for structures, and we know that structure names can be up to 30 characters, which is why this field is defined like this in DD02L.
Hope this helps.

How to increase member name length in essbase studio

Hi All,
Currently we have requirement to build a hierarchy which contains member having length more than 80 characters.
I seen somewhere where the member name limitation is 80.
Can someone help me out how to build the hierarchy with long member name
Thanks,
SatyaB

You would have a hard time containing your comments into a cube especially because they are so freeform. You said you are using Studio to create your cube. Create a drill through report that when users are at a selected intersection of data, the can execute a drill through report to get additional detail. For instance in addition to the comments column, there might be other information on the table they would want to see. You can select what columns get returned.
For example, I've jusr drill through in a GL cube to get back to the Journal Entries. It allowed the users to see all sorts of things, like all the JEs for a cost center, who created them, comments, currency conversion done fromn the source system, when they were posted, etc.
Because they are not in the cube, it makes the cube a lot cleaner.

What is maximum length of oracle database objects name

Hi all,
Can anyone tell me what is maximum length of oracle database objects name .
I guess it is 30 ,correct me if i am wrong thank you.
regards,
P Prakash

Some objects (like synonyms or java classes) can have longer names than 30 chars:
SQL> create or replace synonym empempempempempempempempempempempempemp for emp
Synonym created.though internally oracle will generate short names for such objects:
SQL> select synonym_name from user_synonyms where synonym_name like '%EMPEMPEM%'
SYNONYM_NAME
/969ea190_EMPEMPEMPEMPEMPEMPEM
1 row selected.and not always will the long name be actually usable:
SQL> select * from empempempempempempempempempempempempemp
Error at line 1
ORA-00972: identifier is too long

Lax validation errors on schema import ('version' exceeds maximum length)

I have a schema as per below. I'm trying to import it into Oracle 10.2.0.2.0. However, I'm getting the following lax validation error:
Error loading ora_business_rule.xsd:ORA-30951: Element or attribute at Xpath /schema[@version] exceeds maximum length
I can fix it by modifying the attribute and shortening it but I'd like to know why it's occuring. Insofar as I can tell there is no imposed limit on the size of schema attributes according to the W3C standard. Which then makes me wonder: does Oracle impose limits on the length of all attributes or is this specific to 'version' ? If there is a limit, what is the upper bound (in bytes) ? Where is this documented?
Cheers,
Daniel

File naming on Russian and limitation on length of file names

Hi.
I post this message as a note for any users for whom English is not native language and in everyday practice they use native language on Linux systems.
Torrents and Linux
System:
OS: Archlinux x86_64
FS: Reiserfs
Locale: UTF-8
Client: rtorrent
torrent: http://torrents.ru/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1445641
Problem:
if one try to download this torrent with the help of rtorrent he see message
Hashing: Storage error: [Hash checker was unable to map chunk: Слишком длинное имя файла]
(this in on Russian, on English this is: 'File name too long')
Namely rtorrent couldn't handle this file
Белов А. В. - Микроконтроллеры AVR в радиолюбительской практике. Автоматика. Радиоэлектроника. Связь. Радио. Радиосвязь. Любительская радиосвязь.(2007)(336).djvu
(on Russian again).
The same message prints Transmission when one try to download this particular file.
Reason:
the name is exceeded the limitation on length of file name: 255 bytes. See, e.g.
$ echo 'Белов А. В. - Микроконтроллеры AVR в радиолюбительской практике. Автоматика. Радиоэлектроника. Связь. Радио. Радиосвязь. Любительская радиосвязь.(2007)(336).djvu' | wc -c
279
The problem doesn't depend on type of FS, it is in Linux kernel (Linux VFS). Reiserfs has limit in 4032 bytes on length of file name, Reiser4 has limit in 3976 bytes.
In this case NTFS is more advanced FS:
the limitation on length of file name is 255 UTF-16 code units (255*2 bytes).
Of course if one use 8-bit locale (e.g. cp1251, koi8-r and etc) then this problem for THIS file is not appeared:
echo 'Белов А. В. - Микроконтроллеры AVR в радиолюбительской практике. Автоматика. Радиоэлектроника. Связь. Радио. Радиосвязь. Любительская радиосвязь.(2007)(336).djvu' | iconv -f utf-8 -t koi8-r | wc -c
162
Nevertheless there is no guarantee that someone won't face with longer named files and in that situation the advantage of NTFS against any Linux FS is evident.
Info about FS limitation is taken from wikipedia.
I would glad to hear comments and suggestions about this particular problem (because I don't know how to download files of this torrent and store them on my Linux box).
P.S. As I understand FreeBSD has the same problem in this case.
P.P.S. I think that this problem could appear for example on Linux which serves as samba server (file server) when windows user want to place file with native alphabet letters in name on server.

This is a reported bug.

I am not seeing why this would be failing.

HI,
the problem is delimited data defaults to char(255)..... Very helpful I know.....
what you need to two is tell sqlldr hat the data is longer than this.
so change notes to notes char(4000) in you control file and it should work.
cheers,

Hi Toni,
Thanks for the reply.
Do you mean this?
CREATE TABLE "TEST"."TEST_TAB"
    "STR" VARCHAR2(4001),
    "STR2" VARCHAR2(4001),
    "STR3" VARCHAR2(4001)
);However this does not work as the error would be:
Error at Command Line:8 Column:20
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-00910: specified length too long for its datatype
00910. 00000 - "specified length too long for its datatype"
*Cause:    for datatypes CHAR and RAW, the length specified was > 2000;
           otherwise, the length specified was > 4000.
*Action:   use a shorter length or switch to a datatype permitting a
           longer length such as a VARCHAR2, LONG CHAR, or LONG RAW*009*

Ctxload error DRG-11530: token exceeds maximum length

I downloaded the 11g examples (formerly the companion cd) with the supplied knowledge base (thesauri), unzipped it, installed it, and confirmed that the droldUS.dat file is there. Then I tried to use ctxload to create a default thesaurus, using that file, as per the online documentation. It creates the default thesaurus, but does not load the data, due to the error "DRG-11530: token exceeds maximum length". Apparently one of the terms is too long. But what can I use to edit the file? I tried notepad, but it was too big. I tried wordpad, but it was unreadable. I was able to create a default thesaurus using the much smaller sample thesaurus dr0thsus.txt, so I confirmed that there is nothing wrong with the syntax or privileges. Please see the copy of the run below. Is there a way to edit the droldUS.dat file or a workaround or am I not loading it correctly? Does the .dat file need to be loaded differently than the .txt file?

Hi Roger,
Thanks for the response. You are correct. I was confusing the terms thesaurus and knowledge base, which sometimes seem to be used interchangeably or synonymously, but are actually two different things. I read over the various sections of the documentation regarding the supplied knowledge base and supplied thesaurus more carefully and believe I understand now. Apparently, the dr0thsus.txt file that I did ultimately load using ctxload to create a default thesaurus is the supplied thesaurus that is intended to be used to create the default English thesaurus, which supports ctx_thes syn and such. The other droldUS.dat file that I mistakenly tried to load using ctxload is the supplied compiled knowledge base that supports ctx_doc themes and gist and such. In the past I have used ctx_thes.create_thesaurus to create a thesaurus, but using ctxload can also load a thesaurus from a text file with the data in a specified format. Once a thesaurus is loaded using ctxload, it can then be compiled using ctxkbtc to add it to the existing compiled knowledge base. So, the knowledge base is sort of a compilation of thesauri, which is what led to my confusion in terminology. I think I have it all straight in my mind now and hopefully this will help anybody else who searches for the same problem and finds this.
Thanks,
Barbara
