Newbie Question: Creating Data Sources

Our current Hyperion setup consists of the Hyperion 9.3 client that users access via a terminal server. We are trying to get the web version of Hyperion running.
I installed some base components of the Oracle Enterprise Performance Management System (11.1.1.2.0.940). It all starts fine and I can login with admin, but I do not see how to create data sources or load .bqy query files. If I create a new interactive reporting document, it makes me choose a Data Source from the virtual directory in which I do not have one. if I try to import one, or import a .bqy file, I browse to the file, select it, then always get a "File path is wrong." error. I also found how to create Data Sources using the CMC, but I do not see how to reference these. What am I doing wrong?.

HI,
What version of Hyperion planning are you using version 9.3 or epm11.1?
Because they have different ways of creating datasources.
In version 9.3 you can create datsource in the configuration utility.
While in version 11 you need to create planning application first before creating datasource either by classince planning application or epm.
Thanks,

Create data source in BI 7.0?

hi,
while creating data source in BI 7.0 , ( from flat file data)
under extraction tab:
character set settings : default and direct entry is there
if i select direct entry i am getting character set and replacement character.
what scenerio we use direct entry and what scenerio we use default. if i select direct entry what is effect for my output.
please clarify.
regards
ss

System Default or Fixed Entry
If you choose Default Setting for the character set, in Unicode systems a file in UTF-8 format is expected, in non-Unicode systems a file in the format of the system code page is expected.
If you choose Direct Input for the character set, you can select an SAP character set and determine a replacement character, in case errors occur while converting to the system character set.
SAP Character Set ID
The 4-character name of an SAP character set as defined in SAP character set maintenance.
The following explains the naming convention in more detail:
First digit: Code
0 EBCDIC character sets
1 ASCII character sets
2 mixed single byte / double byte character sets
4 double-byte character sets
6 mixed character sets
8 double byte and multibyte character sets
9 reserved for code pages you define
Second digit: Country
1-3 countries that use the Latin alphabet (Western Europe, North and South America, Australia, Africa)
4-6 countries that use non-Latin alphabets and writing systems (Eastern Europe, Asia, Arabic countries in Africa)
7-9 reserved for special languages
Third and fourth digits: Sequential number
Example
0100 IBM 00697/00273 (Latin 1 - Germany/Austria)
0401 SNI BS2000 8859-5 EHCLC (cyrillic - multiple languages)

Create Data Source Module using OMB

I am not seeing how to create Data Source modules using OMB. I am assuming there is a property of OMBCREATE ORACLE_MODULE that I am overlooking. If anyone can provide assistance, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
craig

Hi,
Yes, there is a OMBCREATE command for creating Oracle Modules. And as per the Scripting ref Guide ( Page 4-157 owb 9i scripting guide) -
OMBCREATE ORACLE_MODULE 'src_module' SET PROPERTIES (DESCRIPTION, BUSINESS_NAME) VALUES ('this is an Oracle module', 'source module') This will create an Oracle module named "src_module", its description is "this is an Oracle module", and business name is "source module".

Urgent help: how to create data source for Weblogic RMI driver

Hi,
Please let me how to create data source for Weblogic RMI driver using Administrator
console.
I understand that the following steps are required:
1.Create connection pool for the RMI driver by specfiying URL as
jdbc:weblogic:rmi and Driver as weblogic.jdbc.rmi.Driver. Now
comes the problem.. what do put in properties text area? I am
talking about key/value pairs required?
2. Having done step 1 ( which I was not able to do) , create a new DataSource
mapping to the connection pool created from step 1.
How to accomplish step 1 ? I want to finally connect to Oracle
database. Please help me.

DataSource will internally do that for you (It will use RMI internaly) . You
dont have to worry about the details of using RMI driver. Thats what is a
DataSource is for.

Hi Sree,
What u have written is abt configuting Datasource for type 2 and
4 drivers.
But I want to know how to create data source for RMI driver. If
I map this datasource to connection pool that is created for
type 2 or 4 drivers, i don't understand why RMI drivers are
required in first place. If i do map the data source to connection pool
created
for type 2 or 4 drivers then where i
would not have used the URL as jdbc:weblogic:rmi and Driver as
weblogic.jdbc.rmi.Driver.
Hope u will help me.

Hi Pradeep
To create a connection pool you have to use a database driver not RMI
driver. So use a thin driver or the WebLogic jDriver for Oracle to setup
your connection pool. Once the connection pool is created you can create
a
DataSource and use this datasource to connect to the database.
The RMI driver can be used to get connections from the database via the
connection pool and in that case you dont need a datasource. Recommended
approach is to use a DataSource.

Data Mining : Association Analysis - How to find the Created Data source

Hi friends ,
I had created a model for Association Analysis and I trained the model and I had maintained a Data source for the model and my question is it shows the associate data source name as "Z_RSDME_AX_DS_0002" and the Application Component as "0DM_XSEL" but when I tried to search for Data source it shows that Data source not found, how to see the created Datasource
Thanks & Regards,
Vishall

Hi,
Go to RSA1 and click on Data Sources. Give the Source System as the client name of your BI system. It will show you all the list of the datasources under your BI client. Now under datasources in the topmost node, right-click and select replicate metadate. It will give you options to replicate your Z_RSDME_AX_DS_0002 datasource. Once replicated, just activate the datasource.
Until and unless you replicate metadata you wont be able to see your Z_RSDME_AX_DS_0002 datasource.
Hope it helped.

Quick Question re Data Source

Hi
I have a quick question re datasource login.
I havent touched my Crystal Reports for about a year. Since I created the reports (which users have been using through Crystal Reports server) I have changed my PC.
I need to make a change in the formulas of the reports so I have reinstalled Crystal Reports 11 onto my PC and opened the reports. The forumula change is simple but I am having a nightmare with the data source login. The report runs against an SQL database. From memory all I did the last time was create an ODBC connection on my PC (which used the the SQL login sa account) and configured the reports to use that ODBC connection. When I open the report it asks me for the data source location which I tell it to use the one I created and the report runs fine.
If I close Crystal Reports and and then re-open, I press F5 to run the report and it gain asks me for the data source credentials.
Any ideas, I'm sure it is something simple I am missing?
Thanks

Guys
Thanks for your help
Ive managed to fix it but not really sure how although I'm sure a few of the things you have mentioned is what I have done.
I basically restored the reports from last nights backup (before I did the changes), re-did the changes and saved and now it seems to work. I think the difference here is that I had created the odbc connection prior to changing the reports - if that makes sense?
What I would like to do is fully understand how this data source connection works.
Don, when I open the report now and hit f5 the report presents me with the parameters and not the database login screen as it was doing before - how is this? What credentials is it using? The SQL sa account (which I configured the ODBC connection to use) or is it my domain account of which I assume permissions for this account must be set on the actual SQL database?
As you and Jeff suggested when I look at the datasource connection screen it shows "trusted Connection: 1" - what does this mean and how is this configured, have I configured this in Crystal somewhere?
Thanks

Report based on custom Query - Question about Data Source

Hello,
I am trying to create Crystal reports (EBO R3.1, Oracle 11g Database, CR2008) based on custom queries. Tried using different kinds of Data Sources but getting stuck once I export them to Infoview.
1. Using Oracle Server: This method works fine on my local & Infoview. But since I have lot of reports, I do not want the DB username/password associated to the report. I neither want BO to prompt username/pwd to my user.
2. Using ODBC(RDO):
Again, works fine on my local. Once I export to Infoview, it fails with this error: "Failed to open the connection"
Which makes sense, because the DSN is created on my local machine and not on the server.
How and what do I create on the server, so that the reports run?
I do not know if using ODBC(RDO) is even the right way for creating custom SQL reports.
I have been reading about Business Views, but not clear on how good they work.
My goal is to create multiple reports, using custom SQL queries which use some kind of connection to the database that can be managed on the
server in one place, and used by multiple reports.
Can any of you please help me here
Thanks,
Sowmya.
Edited by: SBat22 on Apr 13, 2011 5:58 PM

Thanks for moving it to the right forum!!
But, if I setup in CMC, a default username/password that the report needs....what would happen if my password changes?
I would need to go to each and every report and update the password.
I am looking for using one common "connection" for multiple reports. So that, when passwords change, all I update is in one central location.
Can anyone please help!
Thanks,
Sowmya.
