OBIEE 11g Usage Tracking -

Hello,
I'm looking for a better way than Administration/ Manage Sessions to keep an eye on long-running queries.
Is there a way to get OBI to place information about currently running (started but not ended) queries into usage tracking so that I can see long-running reports though an analysis in the Usage Tracking subject area?
As far as I can see, I can only query completed reports/dashboards from the usage Tracking Subject area. The "status" column in the Manage Session display is not availalble in the Usage Tracking subject area and a filter on End Time = null yields no results. Any ideas/strategies welcome! Thanks.

You could use the nqquery.log to look for queries that have started but not finished. You'd need to parse it for relevant start/finish and match up the IDs.
There is an nqquery.log parser on MOS somewhere, that might be a good starting point.

OBIEE 11g - Usage Tracking Not Working

Dear All,
I have enabled the usage Tracking in OBIEE 11g by using Setting up Usage Tracking in Oracle BI 11g guide.
Still i am getting the following error
Usage Tracking not started due to non-existent Usage Tracking table "12-Usage Tracking"."Usage Tracking Schema"."S_NQ_ACCT".
In my RPD,
Database Name : "12-Usage Tracking"
Physical Schema Name : "Usage Tracking Schema"
Physical Table Name : "S_NQ_ACCT"
This table reside under BIPLATFORM Schema in Oracle.
I have followed the steps mentioned in the Document, still unable to find why getting such error. Please point out if any mistake exists.
Please advice.

OBIEE 11g - Usage Tracking - All details are not captured

Hi
We have implemented USAGE TRACKING in our RPD on OBIEE 11.1.1.5. It is working fine, only in few cases it is failing... failing to update with appropriate information...
For the field SUCCESS_FLG the value is populated as 3 - which means "The query failed due to some other reason" as per documentation. When checked the logs, there is no much information in that to conclude what went wrong. Log level is set to 3.
My question is, What are the possible reasons to have this success flag as 3? To capture all the details in the table S_NQ_ACCT, what need to be done? Any settings change?
Please share your thoughts...
Thanks,

OBIEE 11G - Usage Tracking - Table S_NQ_DB_ACCT

Hi
I successfully set up usage tracking in Obiee 11 and the table S_NQ_ACCT gets a lot of new records. Basically it's working.
In the nqserver.log I get some errors concerning a new table S_NQ_DB_ACCT:
[nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 942, message: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
at OCI call OCIStmtExecute: INSERT INTO S_NQ_DB_ACCT (ID,LOGICAL_QUERY_ID,QUERY_TEXT,QUERY_BLOB,TIME_SEC,ROW_COUNT,START_TS,START_DT,START_HOUR_MIN,END_TS,END_DT,END_HOUR_MIN) VALUES (:1,:2,:3,:4,:5,:6,:7,:8,:9,:10,:11,:12).
This is an additional Usage Tracking Table which didn't exist in OBIEE 10G.
I configured the table as S_NQ_ACCT in the same place in the repositry/connection pool. Writing to this table should be possible.
Does anybody has an idea what could be wrong? Does another user fill data to this table than the user which fills data to S_NQ_ACCT?
Thank you

Hi
Thank you.
I use the table within the default RCU created schema. What I don't understand ist why the table S_NQ_ACCT gets a lot of records (because I set the loglevel) but S_NQ_DB_ACCT keeps empty with the error in the nqserver.log. I mean if one table works then the other should be working too? I checked also the permissions which are the same for both tables.

Ok, when you say you merged the Usage Tracking rpd, where did you get it from? Also, which tables did you create in the database for Usage Tracking? Please try to use the rpd here since the one that comes with the installation had issues: http://total-bi.com/2011/09/obiee-11g-usage-tracking-rpd/

Usage Tracking in OBIEE 11g - S_NQ_DB_ACCT and S_NQ_ACCT

Hi Experts,
How to fetch the physical query using usage tracking in OBIEE 11g, i hope in OBIEE 11g there is a feature to capture the physical query using S_NQ_DB_ACCT.
I have imported the table S_NQ_ACCT and S_NQ_DB_ACCT in to RPD.
Please let me know how to join these two tables(Using which Key).
Thanks.

OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6) usage tracking migration

Hi Team,
I am facing issue in setting up the usage tracking in 11g (11.1.1.6).
All the tables and views are available in DEV_BIPLATFORM schema. Migration of the the RPD and the Catalog (available under 'sample' folder) is failing.
Error: Wrong Password.
I have used the default password of Usage Tracking rpd (Admin123 as well as Administrator) during migration. Even though the migration fails.
Is there any bug associated with this as i have also tried to open the RPD with 10g (10.1.3.4) and also with 11g (11.1.1.6). In both case, they failed to open.
Error in 10g:
[nQSError: 36010] Server version 184 cannot read the newer version 266 of the repository.
Error in 11g:
[nQSError: 36015] Please run the upgrade utility obieerpdmigrateutil to upgrade the repository.

This is a bug.
Raised SR with Oracle to resolve it. Oracle has provided a new RPD.

OBIEE usage tracking questions

Hi,
I am using OBIEE 11g and we enabled usage tracking.
Recently, i have observed that some inserts to S_NQ_ACCT table is failing due to "String literal too long" error.
We have configured VARCHAR(4000) for QUERY_TEXT column in physical layer which is causing issues since the executing query has more than 4k characters, I would like to configure in such a way that the insert should not fail and it should exceed with first 4k chars inserted.
The one way i can think of is, in physical layer importing as a view(with subtr() applied on query_text) in lieu of physical table.
Is there any other way i can achieve this?
Thanks,

Need Usage Pattern Report in OBIEE 11g

Hi All,
I have a requirement, where I need to know who logged in, to OBI Application in the last 3 months and who has not. How do I get that? Basing on START_DT in S_NQ_QCCT, I can put a filter with Start Date using BETWEEN RANGE, but since OBIEE logs in only those users who logs in, am not sure how to capture the records for non-logged in users during the same period. I have to report output in a pie chart with the percentages.
Any help would be highly appreciated, since its an urgent need. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Vinag

You need to have all users in some custom table and customize the usage tracking BMM model by using outer joins so that you can see user who are not logged in.
