OBIEE 11G Performance Threshold

OBIEE 11g / Teradata
Is it worth the time and effort to build OBIEE Dashboards / Reports from a database having 500 million records. If not then what is an acceptable number i.e. 100 million? Thanks in advance.

Hi Titas,
with such problems typically, at least for me, the cause turns out to be something simple and embarrassing like:
- I am connected to another database,
- The database is right but I have made some manual adjustments without committing them,
- I have got the wrong query from the query log,
- I have got the right query but my request is based on multiple queries.
Do other OBIEE reports work fine?
Have you tried removing columns one by one to see whether it makes a difference?

OBIEE 11g performance problem

Hi,
I am facing a performance problem in OBIEE 11g. When I run the query taking from nqquery.log in database, it is giving me the result within few seconds. But In the OBIEE Answers the query runs forever not showing any data.
Attaching the query below.
Please help to solve.
Thanks
Titas

OBIEE 11g Performance Tuning

Has anyone seen a guide for tuning BI 11g? I have not been able to find a whole lot.

Hi All,
I am an Oracle DBA, recently in out TEST servers we have upgraded OBIEE from 10g to 11g. Actually we have installed OBIEE 11g on a separate server.
The Data source is Oracle 10.2.0.4 and it is unchanged.
Some reports are taking almost 60% extra time to run from the 11g OBIEE server. As I said earlier, the DB is same and both the OBI servers are accessing same DB.
Being a DBA I am not much confident in OBI, but I need to tune the OBIEE 11g or at least need to find the root cause for the performance degradation in OBI 11g.
I have made use of STAR TRANSFORMATION and that has reduced time in both reports from OBI 10g and 11g, but still 11g is taking around 60 - 70% time more.
Can anybody give me the possible areas to look into in OBIEE?
From the answers above, I have decided to compare the parameters in NQSCONFIG.INI file.
The reports are running queries like the following:
select <columns> from
(select <columns>, RN

How to Perform Group By operation in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have created a report for the "Nationality count in department wise manner", since for this i need to give 'group by department' for getting correct answer...
But in OBIEE 11g on presentation service how i need to give "Group BY" operation....for viewing correct count in nationality wise......
Regards,
Harry...

Hi sai,
U mentioned, but i couldn't clearly able to understand that.......Since to perform Group By i need to make some setting changes in content in Advanced Tab setting like that it is mentioned, but i need to perform in the following manner
select count(nationality), nationality
from per_all_people_f, per_all_assignment_f, hr_all_organization_units
group by department
Note: per_all_people_f-----------> dimension table, per_all_assignment_f--------------> fact table
nationality from per_all_people_f and count(nationality) from per_all_assignment_f
But department is from hr_all_organization_units--------->dim table
I dont want to see the departments but i need to group the result in department manner that i was taking from the table hr_all_organization_units.....
How to perform Group BY in OBIEE 11g.......
Thanks,

OBIEE 11g : Supply Chain Analytics : How Supplier Performance is calculated

Hi All,
In OBIEE 11g : Supply Chain Analytics out of the box RPD has a report called "*Top 10 On Time Performance By Supplier*".
Can anyone tell me what are the fields are being used to calculate this measure?
Any information on this report will be helpful.
Thanks

OBIEE 11g Application Performance Monitoring

Are there any best practices or recommendations for Application Performance Monitoring for OBIEE 11g?
I see that from Fusion MiddleWare Control, we can navigate to Business Intelligence -> CoreApplication (right click) -> Monitoring -> Performance
And from here we have a huge amount of performance metrics to choose from.
What I'm interested in finding out is:
1). Out of these hundreds of metrics, are there a subset of "core" performance metrics that Oracle recommends monitoring that gives a good baseline for performance of the application?
2) What are the options for capturing/gathering/saving these metrics for historical and trend analysis?

Excellent post. Thanks. Is there some sort of trial of the tool you guys built that's described in the post you linked?
"In addition to the out-of-the-box options above, here at RittmanMead we have developed our own OBIEE monitoring tool.
DMS metrics are stored directly on disk or through a database, enabling both immediate and retrospective analysis. Custom dashboards enable the display of both OBIEE and OS data side-by-side for ease of analysis. Integration with third-party tools is also an option."

OBIEE 11g: Searching Subject Area for measure names in Answers

Hello,
I have installed OBIEE 11g SampleApp 825 and just exploring the provided set of dashboards.
From the samples, I am performing following steps:
- I selected Edit Dashboard (for 2.1 Simple Demo Dashboard)
- For Column 2, in the Master Detail 1 Compound View, I did Edit Analysis
- which took me into the Answers design interface with 4 tabs (Criteria, Results, Prompts, Adv).
In the Criteria tab, there is the Subject Area pane on the left where it shows the Subject Area this Answers report is built on and a bunch of Folders like Time, Products, Base Facts etc.
Beside the Subject Area pane, is the Selected Columns pane where you drop fields from the folders.
This particular analysis (Product Line Analysis) has three columns: Revenue Analysis, Products Hierarchy and T05 Per Name Year.
Now, I want to find the folder to which the Revenue Analysis measure belongs. So, I started expanding each node/folder in the Subject Area pane and visually searching for "Revenue Analysis"....cannot find it!
How to determine which Subject Area folder a field on the Analysis belongs to? In Oracle Discoverer, only the Folders from which fields are selected are "enabled" so it's easy to navigate straight to that folder. Or again, in Discoverer, you can actually search for a particular field name and it will return all folders that have that field name pattern. While the Search feature on the top row is useful in finding which Analysis/Report match a string, it does not help in identifying relevant Subject Area Folder fields that match a pattern.
Is something similar available in Answers/OBIEE 11g?
Thanks,
Manish
Edited by: mhathi on Oct 21, 2010 8:53 AM

Again answering part of my own question...It was staring me right in the eye and I couldn't see it:-)...When you have a column in the Selected Columns pane, it's source is right there above the field name. If there is no source folder listed, then it might mean it's a formula. For example in my case, the Products Hierarchy column has the word Product above it...that's the folder it belongs to.
Good. But, the follow-on question still remains, how to search for folders containing a particular string, to find say all folders that have columns like %Margin%?

MINUS Operator in OBIEE 11g

Hi all ,
I have a requirement to use MINUS operator in a column of a report . Since it is available for two separate criteria , Could someone suggest how to perform the same in OBIEE 11g for a column.
the conditions to be implemented in a column are
select count(*) from (
select distinct trx.shipment_header_id
from
F_ERP_PO_RECEIPTS_TRX trx
where   trx.transaction_type = 'RECEIVE'
MINUS
select distinct rec.shipment_header_id
from
where   trx.transaction_type = 'DELIVER').
How can i perform these conditions for a column of a report .
Reg,
Niv D

Hi Niv D,
I guess this can be done as we have union, union all and minus available.
once you select the required subject area say SA for the below query,
select distinct trx.shipment_header_id
from
F_ERP_PO_RECEIPTS_TRX trx
where   trx.transaction_type = 'RECEIVE'
on the right side of the criteria you can see a + symbol with venn diagram. once you click on it, it gives you an option to select the next SA for
select distinct rec.shipment_header_id
from
where   trx.transaction_type = 'DELIVER').
once you selected that, you can see the criteria changes accordingly.
there you change to union or minus.
once you have the conditions for both, make the layout as pivot and apply count on the column. you are there with the result,
I tried earlier with union but not with minus. but this should work.

KN

Strange Error in OBIEE 11g

Hi Friends,
Currently, i was working in mapping feature in obiee 11g. For that i have added
<li>Necessary <spatial tags> in instanceconfig.xml file.
<li>Created a new datasource in the mapviewer and brought it to the online.
<li> After that i went into analytics page and under the Administration tab--->Manage Map Data-->Import Layers
<li> Soon after pressing it an import layers dialog box has to open, but instead of it for me the following error is occurring
There was an error with the server CallBecause of that, it is not allowing me to select layers. what may be the problem over here.
All izz Well

GTA,
Did you perform the Map Builder Application part here before Administration tab--->Manage Map Data-->Import Layers

Star schema in OBIEE 11G

Hi Experts,
Please tell me the places in OBIEE 11G where i can design the start schema.is it only in Physical Layer or In BBM too?
Thanks-Bhaskar

Final point, for performance reasons you should also try to model data into star schema in the physical layer.
If the data is modelled as a true star then there are database features which optimise query performance. These features are set by a DBA when the Warehouse is configured (e.g. enable_star_transformations). The results with this parameter on/off can be staggering (query time reduced from minutes to seconds), showing the power of star schema.
When snowflakes occur, these performance features will not work as designed, and performance will be degraded. There are certain criteria that have to be met by the data e.g. bitmap indices on all of the foreign key columns in the fact.
Please mark if helpful / correct,
Andy

I've observed that the OBIEE 11g generates in the query log physical query using the WITH (sub-query factoring) clause to make the generated sql elegantly readable. This is great! Thanks for the developers. However I have some questions about this.
__Background__
Oracle Database' default behaviour is that if you have only one sub-query in the WITH section, it executes it as an in-line view and does not materialize it before the main sql is executed. If you have more than one, by default the database engine materializes all of them in the order of the definition. In some cases this can completely blow up the SGA and make the query never ending. To divert this behaviour you can apply two hints that work both in inline views and in sub-queries as well: /*+ MATERIALIZE */ and /*+ INLINE*/, however Analytics 11g does not seem to have hint capabilities at the logical table level, only at physical table level.
If we go with the current defaults, developers not aware of this feature can bump into serious performance issues for the sake of some syntax candy at the generated sql level, I'm afraid.
__Questions__
* Is it possible to turn the Analytics server not to use WITH but use inline views instead?
* Is there any way to sneak in some hints that would put the /*+ INLINE */ hint to the appropriate place in the generated sub-queries if needed
* Does the Oracle Database have any initialization parameter that can influence this sub-query factoring behavior and divert from the default?

The WITH statement is not added to make the query more elegant, it's added for performance reasons. If your queries take long to run then you may have a design issue. In a typical DWH DB SGA needs to be seriously increased since the queries ran are much larger and complex than on an OLTP DB. In any case you can disable the WITH statement in the Admin Tool by double clicking on your database object on the physical layer and going to the Features tab. The feature is called WITH_CLAUSE_SUPPORTED.

Dynamically Aggregations Selection during runtime in OBIEE 11g

Can anyone help me how to choose aggregations dynamically in OBIEE 11g while runtime.
Say i have SUM and AVG as two aggregations, and depending on any one of selection my column total should vary.
I acheived this using Variable prompt, but i want it as a drop down and just by toggling between the two my report should change with out using go / apply button.
I tried and came to conclusion that these are static text and doesn't have any database value it can't be showed as dropdown.
Thanks,
Swathi

shud be simple...Simply Create 2 Pivot Views for same Criteria in Single report and perform SUM and AVG for each. Now use View Selector to toggle between two Pivot to get SUM and AVG reports.

Hi,
The etc/hosts file needs to be changed from 127.0.0.1 host to the physical IP address before the start of the installation of 11.1.1.5.
For more information have a look at Oracle support doc id: 1333429.1
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&type=NOT&doctype=PROBLEM&id=1333429.1
