ODI metadata integration with EPMA Shared library

Hello all,
we are in the implementation phase of Hyperion Planning and we have to update metadata using some ETL tool into EPMA.
Is ODI integrates with Oracle and EPMA shared library or not.
if not then we have some other tool to integrates the same.
Kindly reply.
Thanks,
KK

I believe John Goodwin wrote a series of blog-posts to show exactly this integration.
Here is the first one:

Alias in EPMA shared library

Hi There,
When we add a new member into EPMA shared library using ODI the new item comes into Hyperion with alias/description. However, if I change that description in ERP this does not seem to pass across into Hyperion and it looks like it is a manual task for the administartor to maintain that alias manually.
Could someone let us know the reason and/or resolution for this issue.
Cheers !!!!

Hi,
Have a look at below link for the specific details:

EPMA shared library relational representation

I want to use EPMA shared libraries to manually maintain certain dimensions for Planning, but also access that metadata to update other external environments requiring the same hierarchy information. I am running on SQL Server 2005. Hierarchies are managed nowhere else in the company and DRM is not a desired option.
I see HYP_HPLAN tables that contain numeric IDs for dimension members and a HYP_UNIQUE_NAMES table that appears to contain the mappings. Am I on the right track looking at these? How would you recommend going about extracting EPMA shared library hierarchy information into a meaningful table or tables for use elsewhere?
Thanks for your ideas!

It is not more useful to create metadata first in relational if you want to leverage the user interface of EPMA libraries for the maintenance of manual dimensions. Given the business need for some manually maintained dimensions, I think it is much friendlier to have a key user add members, etc. in a hierarchial interface rather than populate a table (likely based on submission of a manually maintained spreadsheet). In my way of thinking, coming from "old school" Essbase, there is intuitive benefit in having hierarchy modeling tools (App Mgr, EAS). So my question still stands and is based on the desire do use EPMA as that tool in a Planning context.

Strange Issue with Logout | Shared Library in WebCenter

For our customer, we have written a couple of task flows. We deployed this as an ADF Library JAR and included the JAR into our WebCenter Portal project (using IDE Connection -> File System Connection). We then placed the task flows onto a few portal pages and everything works fine.
Now to avoid redeploying the portal application each time we make a small change to the task flows, we decided to go ahead with the shared library approach. We create a new “Generic application” in ADF, added the ADF Library JAR to this application and created a WAR deployment profile. We then deployed this application as a “shared library” to the Weblogic server.
We then made the necessary entry to weblogic.xml of our custom WebCenter Portal application and deployed it.
The task flows were getting consumed properly and all functionality was working fine. Just to test, I even deployed an updated version of the shared library and noticed that the portal application picked up the new task flow code. Everything seemed perfect 
But now when I click on logout of the Portal application, I am getting a error dialog which indicates a server 404 error.
To eliminate any issue with our custom code, I repeated the same steps with a very basic task flow application and a new WebCenter portal application.
1.     I ran the application, and logged in as “weblogic” and saw the task flow was displaying correctly
2.     Click on Logout. Got an error dialog (A connection to server has failed (Status=404))
3.     Click on OK in the dialog. Then click on Logout again. Got another error dialog ("Because of inactivity your session has timed out" )
4.     Click on OK in the dialog. Got logged out (saw the page without the secure content i.e. my task flow)
Ideally, I would like to get logged out the first time I get logged out (without having to see those two dialogs). The logout was working perfectly fine before we switched to the Shared Library approach.
Am I missing something? Any pointers?
Note – My Jdev/ADF/WebCenter versions are 11.1.1.5.0

Sometimes resetting an Apple ID password can help > Apple - My Apple ID
If that doesn't help, from the iTunes menu bar click Store > Sign Out
Restart the Mac, launch iTunes then sign in again.

Will my new Ipod synch with a shared library on home sharing?

Will my new Ipod synch with a shared library on home sharing?

You would need to drag the shared library into that computers library so that you now have it to sync over to the idevice.

Is it possible to Sync an iPod (or iPhone) with a Shared Library?

I know this is a silly, basic question, but 6:30 AM is just too early for me to keep digging for the answer.
So, I have several computers at home. ONE of them is used to purchase and store all of my iTunes music. This same computer is used to sync several iPods. The entire library on this computer is shared. Two other computers in the house are Authorized on the same account and regularly play music stored on the "first" computer.
So here's the rub.
My duaghter just got a new iPhone. She has her own MAC. I'd like her to begin using her own computer to sync her iPod and iPhone.
Is it possible to sync her iPod and iPhone using HER computer (that is authorized on my account) and MY shared library?

I don't think it is possible to sync an ipod to a shared library for copyright reasons. Sharing is great and simple for accessing and listening to other computer's music over a network, but to sync your ipod - I believe can only be done from that particular itune's music library. But here's how I work around this so that I don't have to have my 90 GB Music Folder copied on multiple computers:
Copy these files from your main computer (the one that has and controls your master itunes library) into the same location on any other computer on your network (say your daughter's computer): user/music/itunes/iTunes Music Library.xml & iTunes Library. Before copying them over to daughter's computer, remove the old files (maybe keep somewhere else just in case) and have itunes shut down. Then start up itunes on your daughter's computer and it should look identical to the main computer's itunes (and the same as the shared library). What you've esentially done is created a separate itunes library data base that can be managed on your daughter's computer but one that accesses the same actual music files that are on the main computer's Music Folder. To check go to Preferences/Advanced and you'll see that the Music Folder location is pointing to the same file as on the main computer (whose Music Folder is now being used as a sort of network music despository). You'll notice that when your daughter's computer starts itunes and plays a song, the main computer's hard drive where the Music Folder is stored will mount on her computer. So the main computer obviously has to be turned on, or more accurately, the location of the Music Folder (could be on an external hard drive) must be accessible over the network. Your duaghter can now create her own spearate playlists and sync her ipod to her own library which is accessing the same song files (Music Folder) as the main computer. And both of you can be playing from itunes at the same time independantly.
Here's the tricky part that takes some coordintation: Since you'll both be accessing and adding to the same huge Music Folder, you'll need to coordinate with eachother if you want to be able to have each computer's itunes database "see" any music that the other person has added or purchased. For purchasing or adding music to the music folder, both of you should have in Preferences/Advanced the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" selection checked when purchasing music or adding music via burning. If your daughter, for example, buys an album and has this preference selected, then it will go to the Music Folder and she will have access to it. But the other computer doesn't know that this was added to the music folder and it won't show up in that computer's itunes. For itunes to knwo a song is in it's Music Library it has to add it to it. SO, from this other computer, go to File/Add to Library and navigate to the location within the Music Folder and then select the newly purchased album and it will now show up in this itunes as well - BUT before you do this you should UNcheck the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" preference so that the album is not duplicated in the Music Folder. Then if this computer wants to purchase an album, you need to have this checked again. Basically if your doing the original adding you have to have the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" checked. If your simply letting your itunes know that something was added then have the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" unchecked before you add it to your library. And if someone creates a playlist that the other wants, you can still share eachother's libraries (even though your accessing the same Music Folder) or even export the playlist and import it into the other computer.
Sounds tricky but it's actually pretty easy and allows each person to sort of control his/her itunes and sync their own ipods/iphones all from the same Music Folder.

Issue in configure Information Steward 4.1 Metadata integrator with BO 4.1

Hi Experts,
Environment
Machine 1 :BO 4.1
Machine 2: IPS 4.1,DS 4.2,IS 4.2
We need to get the BO 4.1 metadata into information steward .As per IS install guide "If machine 1 has BI platform 4.1 SP1 and machine 2 has Information Steward installed on IPS 4.1, then you do not need to install the Remote Job Service utility. IPS 4.1 SP1 can collect metadata directly from a BI platform 4.1 system because the BI SDK is compatible between IPS 4.1 SP1 and BI platform 4.1 SP1.3"
what else we need to configure ?
Do we need to install 4.1 client in IS installed machine?
I'm getting below error when trying to add integrator
CMS Server name : BO 4.1 cms name , user name&PWD : BO 4.1 user and pwd
Infoview Integration user:BO 4.1 user&Pwd
Thanks in advance for help.

Hi Satish,
You must install the BI Client tools in IPS server (make sure that BI Platform in Machine 1 and BI Client Tools in Machine 2 must be of same version including support pack). Then before creating metadata integrator connection in IPS, try to connect BI server in Machine 1 from Client tools in Machine 2. For this you can use, UDT / IDT / WebI Rich Cleint to test whether Machine 2 is able to connect Machine 1 or not. If you failed at this level, then there problem with Firewall or port issue. We have to fix this before moving ahead.
If above test is passed, then go to IPS - CMC, check whether ISJobServer service is available, enabled and running. Disable this service and check what services are included under this. Check all the services related to IS is included or not. If not include all services, enable and restart the server.
Then you create the BOE Integrator source connection.
Thanks,

Help with iTunes Shared Library (Vista and OS X)

I am trying to share my Vista-based iTunes library with my new iMac. I have an issue now that iTunes does not let me select the shared iTunes library that resides on the PC. The following is how things are set up
1) I've moved all of my PC-based music, my iTunes Library (.itl) file and the cover art to an external HD on my Vista PC.
2) I've set permissions on all of the Vista files (music, library, art) to be read/write for available to all connected users.
3) I have also mounted the PC-based external drive on my iMac. Permissions seem to be ok, as when I view files via the Finder, they are visable and accessible.
4) However, when I try to open iTunes on iMac to change the shared library (using the OPTION key), the iTunes Library.itl file on the hard drive is completely greyed out. No matter how I change permissions or sharing on the Vista machine, I cannot seem to select the shared library.
5) Interesting that I HAVE successfully accessed the same library through another Windows-based machine (Windows XP). In that instance I can access the network drive and select the iTunes Library.itl file no problem. Music streams fine after I do that. Also, from my iMac I am able to create files in the same directory where the iTunes files reside (using program like Text Editor) so it seems I do have write access and permissions to the directory.
Any clue why this is happening? It seems like iTunes is the one program that is not picking up the permissions from the iMac, but other Mac programs are. It's driving me a little nuts at this point. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx

Bump. Same issue. Help please.

URGENT: RSL Stopped Working - Need to compile with Runtime Shared Library

I need this target to compile using the “Use Runtime Shared Library” option such that Flex libraries will be not included IN the swf, however I cannot get it to work.

I really hate to do this, but I very much need someone from Adobe to chime in here. It is causing some serious headaches. Ant nor the straight Flash Builder 4 will build with RSLs properly enabled now and this is really a very urgent situation for me. It has doubled file size and made the application absolutely unbearable for users.
Thanks!

Re: OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1 integration with Hyperion shared services 11.1.1.3

I am working on OBIEE authentication using hyperion shared services. To achieve this I did the following steps,
1) Registered the shared services in Answers using 'Manage EPM workspace'
2)Modified config.xml to enable HSSauthenticator
3)Modified instanceconfig.xml by adding external auth tags
4)In rpd created a init block using custom authenticator.
When I login into Answers using a username and password from hyperion shared services, it is saying invalid username/password.
Log file says ' xxxxxx authentication failed in repository star, Odbc driver returned an error (SQLDriverConnectW)'
Can some one explain me if I am missing anything here?? Is there anyone who has successfully implemented this before.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Sandeep,
I am fairly certain that this integration actually works in the other direction.
That is from the Oracle Hyperion Workspace portal you need to log in and once you are in Workspace from the file menu an option for "Oracle Interactive Dashboards" should be available if all is configured correctly with the integration. That link will open up OBIEE and take the user directly into the dashboards without having to get prompted by the OBIEE login screen.
If you have the BIC2Go image (Dan Vlamis' team, vlamis.com) for Oracle BI 10g you can see this integration's configuration and see it working correctly.
I hope that helps

EPMA Shared Library

I am trying to share dimensions between an HFM application and a Planning application. Is there a way to share a dimension which needs to be the entity dimension in planning but a generic dimension in HFM? In Planning, my Department dimension is tagged as entity but in HFM, Entity is tagged as Entity and Department is tagged as generic (Custom 1). Is there a way to share the department dimension between the 2 applications that are not tagged the same? I've been unable to figure this out.

This is not possible currently, an Enhancement request has been logged in for this one.

M.S.N. Weather integration with Location Sharing.

When a user shares their location let Bing Maps show the local weather there, or maybe even an option below the location that says "show weather forecast" and then shows a small forecast powered by MSN Weather.

That's a good point, I was thinking my app would probably not be super popular, but I have no idea. A rough estimate of my app's behavior against the quotas gives me theoretically 65000 active users per day (limiting factor is HTTPRequest quota).
In any case I am hardcoding a domain name that I own into the app. The server side code is also pretty simple, so if the quotas became a problem I can migrate to EC2 without too much code rewriting. Hopefully.

Myrio debugging shared library (so) with eclipse

Hi,
has anybody experience with debugging shared library files in eclipse?
I have created a shared library file in eclipse and downloaded it on the myrio device into following location: \usr\lib. I´m able to access the file in Labview.....this wors great. But I want to debug this file in Eclipse like explained in the following NI tutorial: http://www.ni.com/tutorial/14690/en/
But I'm not able to get it running. In the debug view of Eclipse I get 2 Errors. In the Disassembly window: "Cannot access memory at address 0x0" .
And the other is: "No source available for "" "
Has anybody experience what I must do to get it running?
Thank you very much!
regards
Holger

Has nobody experience with this problem?
I will explain a little bit more......
I want to debug (with setting Breakpoints) a shared obefect file in Eclipse. For convenience I created a very simple C File:
This is the dedicated project tree with the succesfully created so-file:
I copied the created so-file to the MyRIO device with the remote system Explorer to the following location: \usr\local\lib
Next I have make a power-cycle from the myRIO device. After that I can sucessfully include the .so file in Labview. This works all great to this point:
But I want more.....I want debug the c-file in Eclipse and follow the NI tutorial: http://www.ni.com/tutorial/14690/en/
I have set up the debugger like explained in the tutorial:
But if I debug I get this window with several errors:
Hope someone can help me to get it running!
Many thanks!

Party Shuffle with shared library

Is there anyway to use Party Shuffle on a remote computer with a shared library as the source? I have all my music on my G5 but my laptop is what I use during parties.

It's been that way ever since Party Shuffle appeared in iTunes.
One way I used to do it when I had my music library on a desktop computer and I was using a PowerBook was to use remote desktop software like VNC to control the remote computer.
Or if you quit out of iTunes on the remote computer and use file sharing to mount the remote file system you could hold the Option key down on your local computer and then select the library on the shared volume. I haven't tried this but I think it may work. Changing libraries was something introduced in the latest version of iTunes, although I don't think this was what they had in mind when introduced it.

I have an iphone 4s and when I try to connect it to my shared libraries; I get an icon of a circle that only fills up halfway. I have an ipad and it connects to the shared library without a problem. My library is much larger than the capacity of either

I have an iphone 4s and when I try to connect to my shared library I see an icon of a circle that only becomes half full. It does not connect. I also have an ipad, which connects without incident. My itunes library is larger than the capacity of both devices, so that cannot be the issue. How can I get the phone to connect with my shared library?

My husband and I are using the same iTunes account on all mac & pc computers, but the libraries are different on each machine. We always manually manage our music (no auto sync). iTunes is up to date on the PCs. My husband uses our joint iTunes account on his pc, but once again, has a different collection in his library from those on the other machines. He can't load any music from his PC to his iphone 4. I can load music from my mac library to my iphone 4s, but cannot load from my pc library to my iphone 4s. How can I switch my main library that it syncs with from the mac to the pc?
Thanks
