Moving from Development to Production

Dear all, I need to move several portal objects (pages, content areas, users, applications) from a development environment to a brand new production environment. OS are the same (Sun Solaris 2.7), RDBMS are the same (8.1.7), Portal are the same (3.0.6.6.5). I dont want to use portal tools such as contexp, pageexp and so on. Can I export portal30, portal30_sso, portal30_public schemas and import in thenew db? Does it work? Please, any suggestion/help is really appreciated.

Questions on Analyzer Upgrade and Moving Analyzer Reports from Development to Production

Hi,We run Analyzer 5.0.3. We are planning to go to Analyzer 7.2. Did any body go thru this upgrade? If so, what is your opinion and tips that may help. Also, we never had Analyzer development environment. We are planning on having Analyzer development environment. In our installation, all of the Analyzer reports are centrally developed based on user requests. Once we have development and production at the same Analyzer version, if a report is developed in the development system, how can the report be mirateed/moved from development to production system?Thank you for your help,Prasant

Can anyone help for this error.
Many thanx in Advance

Hi Babloo,
According to the error message, the package may have failed are as follows:
The user account that is used to run the package under SQL Server Agent in PRODUCTION server differs from the original package author.
The user account does not have the required permissions to make connections or to access resources outside the SSIS package.
The package may not run in the following scenarios:
The current user cannot decrypt secrets from the package. This scenario can occur if the current account or the execution account differs from the original package author, and the package's ProtectionLevel property setting does not let the current user
decrypt secrets in the package. In this scenario, we can change the SSIS Package ProtectionLevel property to EncryptSensitiveWithPassword, then modify the SQL Server Agent job step command line to include this password.
File access fails because the current user does not have the required permissions to write to the file share that the connection manager accesses. In this scenario, we can create a SQL Server Agent proxy account. This proxy account must use a credential
that lets SQL Server Agent run the job as the account that created the package or as an account that has the required permissions.
References:
SSIS package does not run when called from a SQL Server Agent job step
Run an SSIS Package Under a Different Account

Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Vinay,
As Visakh mentioned, the issue usually occurs because the package runs in 64-bit runtime, however, the Excel driver is 32-bit. According to your another thread, it seems that you use SSIS 2005, right? In SSIS 2005, there is no “use 32 bit runtime” option
for the package executions of a SSIS package job step. In this condition, you have two choices:
Install the 64-bit Microsoft ACE OLE DB 12.0 Provider on the production server. Here is the download link (AccessDatabaseEngine_x64.exe):
http://www.microsoft.com/en-in/download/details.aspx?id=13255
Create a CmdExec type job step instead of SSIS Package job step, so that we can call 32-bit DTExec.exe to execute the package within command line. For more information, please see:

OWB propagation from development to production environment

Our department is in need to implement overall security around our production data warehouse.
One issue that seems to bother our management is having only one OWB Designer where developers would have to be responsible enough to use snapshots and export mappings to mdl files. Management would like to have development and production OWB Designer Repository where production designer would always be in sync with what is deployed in prd database. Also prd OWB Designer Repository would be like a source safe so we have to always get a mapping from prd designer move it dev designer and when done propagate changes back to prd designer and then deploy to prd database.
Would this be a good approach?
Any input on how to handle propagation from development to production environment, and if you are aware of "best practices" when it comes to OWB environment is appreciated.
Best Regards,
Vlasta

Hi,
Copy whole catalog and rpd from dev to prob.
If you want to copy specific report go to OracleBIData\web\catalog\samplesales\root\shared\sample+sales(group folder name)
You can copy reports under folders and dashboards in _portal in Sample sales group folder...both file and .atr file.But you may miss security applied on those dashboards.
http://www.rittmanmead.com/2008/04/28/migration-obiee-projects-between-dev-and-prod-environments/
Best practice is to copy whole catalog and rpd (or) Copy shared and system folders and their .atr files from OracleBIData\web\catalog\samplesales\root so that you will not miss security and you will not over ride users folders which may contain some data created by them.
Thanks,
Srikanth

Error while importing the ODI Package from Development to Production Enviroment

Hello Everybody,
Currently I'm face the problem when import ODI models (from Development) to Production environment
And the error show follwing error:
ODI - 23040 Import file "C:/BIAPPS_Package/Models/XyZ.xml" error
please help.

Do the user performing the import have permissions to import models to the production environment? I'd also mention that you would have a better setup if your production environment only held executables such as scenarios, load plans etc. and not development objects. It leads to better change control management and simplifies the migration process from DEV --> PROD

VC Reports transport from Development to Production

Hi all,
     How do we transport the VC Reports from Development to Production.
     How to transport the model.
     Do we need to create new System Object.
     please help me. Are there any standard document available.
Thanks & Regards,
kishore.

Hi
After importing the model as Dharmi explained, you might need to change the systems' names in the model to fit the production landscape. For example, if a backend system has an alias AAA in Dev and same system has alias BBB in prod. To do this, simply choose Tools > Manage services...
If the landscapes are compatible, you can transport only the working iView using the portal transport capabilities. Navigate to System Configuration > Transport in the Dev portal, find your iView and add it to a transport package.
Hope this helps,
Shay

Moving Universe from Development to Production

Hello Gurus,
I am working in XI R3.1.
I have modified an existing universe in designer. what are the things that I have to take care of before i export it to Production. In our company not using Import Wizard to move the universe from dev to production. we are moving the .unv files and reports to production using the manual method. i.e save the .unv file in a shared network and open it in production and save the universe.
Below are the steps that I am following. Please let me know If I am wrong.
1. Imported and modified the universe according to the requirements.
2. checked the integrity check and cardinality. there were no errors.
3. saved the universe and checked the radio button "Save for all users"
4. changed the connection to SHARED connection.
5. exported the universe to repository.
copied the .unv file from the USERDOCS where all the .unv files are stored to a shared network
6. opened the .unv file in production environment. changed the connection to secured and saved the universe and checked the radio button "Save for all users."
7. Imported the universe to production repository.
Am I following the correct steps. Please shed some light.
Thanks,
Naveen

Hello Naveen,
did you also look at the LifeCycle Manager tool that is available for download to help you to move objects from Dev to QA to PROD ?

Transporting object from development to production server

Hi Everyone,
Could you plz tell me how can i transport a object from development server to production serevr if that object is local in production server. And also could u tell me if the transfer structure is replaced if the names are different in both the server???

Could you plz tell me how can i transport a object from development server to production serevr if that object is local in production server.
Case 1: Object is in Prod, but not in Dev. and you want to align the systems through transports.
You will have to send it to D (which could be done by changing transport routes & then following normal transport procedure) & then will have to bring it back with overwrite originals.
Case 2: Object is present both in Prod & Dev.
You can send the transports D->P with Overwrite originals (following the transport procedures).
And also could u tell me if the transfer structure is replaced if the names are different in both the server???
If technical names are different in both the servers, the transfer structure will not be overwritten.

How to transport requests from development to production server

hi gurus
i am new to SDN
can u pls give me detailed information how to transport requests from development server to production server?if possible give me screen shot documents
regards
surya

Hi
Transporting
There are help pages that discuss creation of transports.
In simple terms, you: create a transport package
add objects to the package export the package, plus optionally any related objects to a predefined folder/directory on the portal server into a file with an extension of .EPA copy the .EPA file to the import folder of your QA system and import it test the contents on the QA system copy the .EPA file to the import folder of your production system and import it Create a transport package file
Here is the step by step procedure to create a transport package:
For Export
1. Go to system administration, and click on transport?export.
2. In the middle pane, select the folder you want to export and right click on the Transport Package. 3. Fill in the General Properties i.e the name of the package, id and description. 4. And say finish and open the object for editing.
5. When the object has been opened then right click on the object you want to transport, and say "Add object to the Transport Package".
6. Check the checkbox of the item u have added and see the properties if it has been added properly. 7. Now click on the save button.
8. After the object is saved, click on the export button. 9. U will have an option to select where to store the .epa file which will be generated. U can overwrite an existing one by selecting the browse button, or store it with the generated name in the location it automatically generates. 10. Now Click on the Start Export button.
11. once the export is completed, it shows a report on how much time is taken to generate the .epa file. 12. Here there is an option for downloading the .epa file. Click on the link and download the file. This file is ready to be uploaded into any other EP Server.
For Import:
Pre-requisites: You have to copy the .epa file created while export into the local drive. Optionally, you have to manually copy the .epa file generated in the export function into the Import directory of the server ie. chooseFollow the steps below for importing a certain file. 1. Go to System Administration in the portal, and click on Transport?Import. 2. For the source of the package, Click on the radio button Server for the .epa file you have copied lately. Else, click on the radio button on client if you are operating in the client and select the .epa file you have stored on the local drive. 3. Now select the file from the browse option and click on Upload.
4. Now click on the import button. 5. Once the import process is finished, the report is shown. In the whole process, the par files are not included in the .epa files. For the par files to be included into the .epa files then we have to change the pcdStartup.properties file in the server. The property to be changed is Pcd.TransportApplication.Export.ExcludeObjectTypesAfterRuleProcessing: Keep this property's value as empty for enabling the par files to be uploaded into the .epa. You can check for this property in the portal in the following -System Administration-Support-Portal Content Directory-PCD Configuration.
