Need information on licensing in OBIEE 10g

Experts ,
Can you guide me on how licensing works in OBIEE 10g ?
Scenario : If there is one license for a PROD box for 1 Project ,then can other team use that PROD box.
Is there any document on Licensing .
Appreciate your help .
Thanks,
Anand

I dont think there is any documentatoin on the licensing part. You can probably talk to the Live sales chat representative to get the information you needed from oracle.( http://www.oracle.com/us/solutions/ent-performance-bi/enterprise-edition-066546.html ).

Need help in joins in OBIEE 10G

Hi All,
I have 2 tables like following.
Table 1: Team
Id| Team Name| Resource id
1 | xxx | 1
2 | yyy | 1
3 | zzz | 1
4 | xxx | 2
Table 2: Resource Rate
RSRC ID| Resource Name| Rate | Month | year
1 | John | 10 | Jan | 2012
2 | Max | 5 | Jan | 2012
I have joined these 2 tables with Resource ID. I have a prompt with Team Name and Resource Name and I have a OBIEE chart report (Month,Year Vs Rate), in which if do not select team name in prompt or select only one team name then the results are fine but when i select 2 team names in the prompt for example 'xxx','yyy' the results gets doubled. If I select 3 team names, the result will be rate*3. But I want the result to be same value even after I select more than one team name.
How to archive this??? Kindly help

Hi Veeravalli,
No I cannot have team name after resource name, because the purpose is to see based on team and then on resource. Moreover their is nothing wrong with queries generated, it is working as it is expected, Since the resource is mapped to 2 teams, I am getting duplicate values.
I am just trying to find if there is a way to return always unique values.

Prerequisites for installing OBIEE 10g in AIX

Hi
I need the prerequisites for installing OBIEE 10g in AIX.

Scripts? Oracle installation has intuitive GUI installation. You just need to do some required action before launch of installation. These steps you can find on official documentation http://tahiti.oracle.com or some public papers.
Anyway there was installation script that prepared the system for Oracle install. It was called DORIS (made by Howard J. Rogers) but AFAIK it is not downloadable anymore.

Percentile_Disc Function in OBIEE 10g - Help needed at the earliest

Hi All,
I have a requirement of using PERCENTILE_DISC function in OBIEE 10g repository. I tried NTile function, to fetch the percentile. But that is not what am intending to see.
I have a requirement something similar to this, to be implemented in repository. Could anyone throw some light in this regard?
PERCENTILE_DISC(.25) WITHIN GROUP (ORDER BY F.Days asc) OVER (PARTITION BY A.NAME, B.PLACE)
Here F = Fact
A = 1st Dimension
B = 2nd Dimension
Days = Is calculated as TIMESTAMPDIFF(SQL_TSI_DAY, A.DATE, B.DATE). Established Inner Join, to fetch this calculation in to the FACT
Appreciate your responses at the earliest. Thanks once again.
Regards,
Sarat Nallapati

Hi,
I don't have any idea on percentile_disc.
But,in OBIEE we have a function PERCENTILE()
It will give the percentage of each value in the total sum of all the values.
once check it.

Challenges while Upgrading from OBIEE 10g to 11g

Hi Gurus,
This is Kiran again. This time I am back with the upgradation issues. We have a client which is currently on OBIEE 10g. All components are already configured in OBIEE 10g with client on RPD, Catalog and implemented all security levels for those.
Now the challenge is to upgrade all activities which we have configured in OBIEE 10g. I have seen lot of stuff online and understood how to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to OBIEE 11g by simply clicking on ua.bat file. But I am unable to understand the process how it is upgrading the securities and environments.
Can anyone help me out by providing necessary stuff I need to take care of before taking the decision to upgrade from OBIEE 10g to 11g.
And also please clear me whether we will have any challenges in upgrading process. If yes, then what kind of challenges we will face and what kind of necessary steps we need to implement to resolve it.
What kind of Architecture we need to follow?
How Schedulers will get upgraded?
Please help me out with your real experiences (Not the online websites). Your response will be highly appreciated and it will help lot of OBIEE professionals who are in the process of upgradation.
Thanks in Advance to all OBIEE GURUS.
Kiran

Hi Valli,
There is really great information available in this link. But I would like to know whether any one faced any issues while upgrading from OBIEE 10g to 11g. Please do share us few issues....

OBIEE 10G SSO Issue

HI
We have configured OBIEE 10g on IIS (ver-6) server. We have a business requirement where we need to integrate OBIEE with another ASP.NET application. So, user should log in once and to view OBIEE reports he should not log in again.
Now we have checked GO URL option given in Chapter 11 of Oracle® Business Intelligence Presentation Services Administration Guide. But problem is our company policy does not allow us to pass Password in HTTP URL. So we cannot use that solution.
We are trying to use SSO and referred to Chapter 8 of Deployment Guide. We followed all the steps give in that chapter
Also, we modified isapiconfig.xml and entered <CredentialStore> paramaters in it.
But when we Go to Analytics URL (for remote machine) Login screen show "Not Logged In" message.
currently we are using REMOTE_USER method as it is given in documention.
So we did everything by the book. Now my question is:
1) We do not have any SSO server/Product, is there is any way we can integrate OBIEE application to other ASP.Net application on another IIS SERVER? There was a suggestion that if we pass remoter_user parameter in HTTP header, is it possible to work this way.
2) Is it possible that if we host both the ASP.NET and OBIEE 10g on SAME IIS server there is way to integrate them using SSO without any SSO server again by passing remote_user HTTP header
3) What options do we have to integrate ASP.NET application and OBIEE without using SSO server itself and without using GO url method as we cannot pass password in header. Will Cookie Enabling Method can work in this scenerio.
4) Is there is way that OBIEE directly take windows ID without SSO server, I know question might sound stupid as in prerequisite i read that we need “SSO system of Choice” but we need to be absolutely sure about our option and possibilities.
we also reffered to following thread:
10g - how to configure sso with iis-
But, this one seems to be unresolved So kindly help

Saurabh

Hi Praveen,
Thanks for your response. I was doing a bit of R&D on SOAP API, tell me if i am wrong.
In case we use SOAP API to Authenticate then we will get Response in terms of XML and we have to write our own code to render it in tables or charts.
We dont want that we just want to automate the Authentication part and want to use OBIEE use Interactive Dashboards. Kindly suggest if I am wrong and if we just write a piece of Code to get the Authentication done and it will not affect the further use of OBIEE.
Regards
Saurabh

EPMMaster.rpd Fusion Pack migration from OBIEE 10g to 11g

We have successfully installed OBIEE 10g and 11g on Windows 2008 32bit servers. On the 10g Installation, we have applied the Fusion Pack EPMMaster RPD file and it connects successfully to our EPM warehouse. We want to migrate the Fusion pack to 11g which is also setup on the same platform. Per the instructions in the documentation, we have copied the files (RPD file and Webcat folder) to the 11g server. We run the UA.bat file and it proceeds to start copying the files over fom the RPD and WebCatalog to the new system. It completes this process, but then hangs on starting the Oracle BI server - it never gets beyond that.
We will be purchasing the EPMMaster RPD and know it is not available yet for 11g – however we’re trying to get ahead of the curve a bit and manually fix the items in the presentation layer that will not render correctly in 11g
upgrade exception occurred
Unable to start process: instance1: coreapplication_obis1
One thing that I noticed – Since the UA tool does not completely finish --
RPD size on 10g – 42,675KB; 11g – 6,375KB
I manually change the webcat in Enterprise Manager to the EPMMaster catalog -this actually caused additional errors on restart.
Has anyone attempted upgrading a delivered RPD to 11g?
Thanks in advance -

This is a known issue that we have worked through with Oracle tech support. The Dimension Deduction.Deduction Sid causes an error that prevents the UA tool from completing the upgrade process. There are a couple of ways around this, but the fastest is to simply delete the Dimension, the two related hierarchies and the fact table that is joined to this dimension. Physical table do not need to be touched however. There are still issues once it’s moved to 11g, but those can be addressed post migration. Thanks much to the Oracle support team for helping us out with this issue!

OBIEE 10g to 11g Migration on LINUX Machine

Hi All,
I want to Migrate OBIEE 10g (Windows Environment with SQL Server DB) to OBIEE 11g on LINUX Environment with Oracle DB.
If anybody know this can you please help me how to do ?Thnaks in Advance.
As per my Knowledge i know upto this .... "first we need to deploy RPD and WEBCatalog files in to New(OBIEE11g) system and we have to test RPD and WEBCatalog files,Whether these two are working fine or not? Because in OBIEE 10g we have OC4J Server,But in OBIEE 11g Architecture wise it's entirely Different here we have OBIEE WEBLOGIC Server. We have to Deploy RPD in WEBCatlog files in to WEBLogic server. And If any changes have to do in Securities and Variables we need to make changes in that after Migration".

Prasad.

Prasad,
Refer the tutorial here..http://www.oracle.com/webfolder/technetwork/tutorials/obe/fmw/bi/bi11115/upgrade/upgrade_to_11g.htm#t4s3

Filter on the reports created using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS in obiee 10g

How do i filter on the report that is created by using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS in obiee 10g?
I have reprot A with link to report B, report B is created using DIRECT DATABASE ACCESS. so it is just a table, but i need to filter out 2 columns.
here is the query in REPORT B:
select strm, acad_group, crse_id, class_section, count(emplid) from v_crse_enrl
group by crse_id, strm, class_section, acad_group;
the link in REPORT A:
'<a target="_blank" href="'||VALUEOF("bi_link")||'Go&Path=CF_CROSS_TEACHING_LIST&ACTION=Navigate&col1=STRM&val1='||view1_DIMEN.STRM||'&col2=CLASS_SECTION&val2='||TRIM(view1_DIMEN.CLASS_SECTION)||'">' ||view1_dimen.class_id||'</a>'
from this link to report B.
thank you!!

I didnt tested using url, but the same works with using presentation variables.
To your direct sql add where clause for those two columns like WHERE col='@{col1}' and col ='@{col2}'
and try to run from url.

Do I need a security license to setup VPN on router?

Hi All.
I'm trying to setup VPN connections on 2 different routers and I'm not sure about that Do I need a security license to setup VPN connection on router?
First one is 1941-K9 site-to-site.
Second one is 887G-K9, EasyVPN connection.
Both of them don't work properly. What do I need to check on both routers to see if they're abled for vpn connection, maybe some commands as well.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,

yes, for VPN you need a security-license.
The 1941 should show the following line:
rtr-01#sh ver | b Technology
Technology Package License Information for Module:'c1900'
Technology    Technology-package          Technology-package
              Current       Type          Next reboot
ipbase        ipbasek9      Permanent     ipbasek9
security      securityk9    Permanent     securityk9
data          None          None          None
The 887 comes by default with the "Advanced Security" feature-set. That's all you need for that device.

Problem in navigating from one report to another in OBIEE 10g

Hi,
I am facing an issue with OBIEE 10g while applying navigation on my reports.
Lets suppose I made a report showing list of all items(in broad categories) sold on a particular day, say Dairy, Frozen Foods, Chocolates etc.In this report there is a date prompt showing the date of sale.
Now there are certain items that are distributed within these categories, like dairy includes milk, cheese, butter etc.
Hence, my navigation should be like when I click on a particular item category, the control should move on to the report which has all items under that particular category and the prompt for this report should show the same date as passed in the previous report.
But sometimes what happens is that on clicking the navigation from first report to the second one, the date is not persisting in the prompt. I say sometimes because at times the navigation does work correctly. This is a bug of Obiee or something which is giving unexpected results.
Kindly help with your suggestions.
Thanks
Ankita

Ankita,
This is not a bug in OBIEE...I'm sure something is missing. If this is working for some cases and not working for some other case then you will need to find the root cause. Try in bits and pieces...Step by Step with some dates (unit testing). Ideally this shud work properly.
For an instance try with OBIEE drilldown feature and not with navigation with a single sale date and observe the behavior.
Hope its clear...

Obiee 10g - How to Increase the default size of Bubble chart radius axis

Hi,
I have an requirement of creating bubble chart in obiee 10g.
When i was developing the bubble chart i noticed that there is no option of increasing the size of the bubble.
When the measure value is low the bubble is not getting displayed.
Kindly help me with any solution.
Regards,
Abdul

Hi Alok_Aswal,
In SQL Server Reporting Services 2008, the Bubble chart has several custom attributes which allow us to control the size of the bubbles. "BubbleMaxSize" and "BubbleMinSize" attributes allow us to define the size of the bubble in the chart series. The values
set are in percent of the whole chart size. We can find those attributes in the property pane by selecting bubble series and expanding 'CustomAttributes' properties.
And based on my research, the Marker size has a wide range, but for some reason once we get to around 8 the bubble in the legend will not grow any bigger. So in your scenario, we can set the Marker size to 8pt, then set the appropriate “BubbleMaxSize" and
"BubbleMinSize" based on the chart size to make the size of both the bubble are the same. For example, we can also set “BubbleMaxSize" and "BubbleMinSize" to 8, then manually adjust the chart size until both the bubbles have same size.
Beside, we can delete the original legend, and drag a tablix to the right of the chart. And then insert the corresponding data and color to tablix to let it looks like a legend. For more details information, you can refer to the link below to see Mike’s
