OLAP Analytic Workspace Manager and Worksheet

Hi,
I have installed a datawarehouse and OLAP 10gR2 on a WinXP but in the Start menu.
- Oracle_home, in Integrated Management Tools, I do not haveOLAP Analytic
Workspace Manager and Worksheet.
What is the problem ? What more should I install ?
Many thanks for your help.

Hi,
What more should I install ?Did you do the OLAP catalog (dbms_olap)?

Hi,
In Oracle Client 10g .v2 the product OLAP Analytic Workspace Manager/Worksheet is included and installed.
However , it is not in Oracle 11g - the Oracle client of this version is included -
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/index.html
Download page includes:
   - Client
   - Clusterware
   - Examples
   - GatewaysWill it be included in a seperate product Oracle11g Client...or else???
Does anybody know about this....???
Thanks...

Difference between Analytic workspace manager and AWB

Hi could anyone tell me the difference between AWM and AWB , . I finished designing my cube using AWB and i was planing to use OBIEE to browse and view my cube for reporting etc but it turns out that OWB cubes arent diretly compatible with OBIEE workspace we have to use AWM to make it compatible or something.. So why use OWB in the first place ???

Hi Jan,
The difference is that one uses a memory mapped file and one uses direct nio memory (as part of the memory allocated by the JVM process) to store the data. Both allow storing cache data off heap making it possible to store more data with a single cache node (JVM) without long GC pauses.
If you are using a 32 bit JVM, the JVM process will be limited to a total of ~3GB on Windows and 4GB on Linux/Solaris. This includes heap and off heap memory allocation.
Regarding the size limitations for the nio-file manager Please see the following doc for more information.
With the release of 3.5 there is now the idea of a Partitioned backing map which helps create larger (up to 8GB of capacity) for nio storage. Please refer to the following doc.
Both can be used to query data but it should be noted that the indexes will be stored in heap.

Analytic Workspace Manager - Hierarchies within hierarchies

Hi,
We have six levels of Sales Groups (SG) and two levels of Sales Personnel (SP).
- SG1
SP1- Sales Manager
SP2- Sales Rep
- SG2
SP1
SP2
- SG3 ... so on and so forth
We want to have drill down capability on SG1 so that we see SP levels underneath followed by the next level Sales Group i.e. SG2.
My question is can we have hierarchies within hierarchies using Analytic Workspace Manager and can this be queried using Discoverer Plus for OLAP. If there is another way to do it, can someone please explain?
Thanks again,
-Esther

I am not totally sure what you are trying to achieve as I think you might be confusing members with levels. From an OLAP perspective we support two basic types of hierarchies
- Level based
- Value based (Parent-Child)
Within level based we additionally support:
- normal
- ragged
- skip level
Normal implies that you have a hierarchy where the each member for each level always has a parent at a the next level up in the hierarchy. Ragged hierarchies are where data is loaded at different levels within the hierarchy and skip level is where parents within a specific level are themselves defined at multiple levels.
I am not sure if this answers your question, but you can find more information on how to manage hierarchies in the
Oracle® OLAP Application Developer's Guide
Section 3 Creating an Analytic Workspace
Creating Hierarchies

ETL with OWB and Workspace Manager with Analytic Workspace Manager?

I already created my dimensions and cubes with "warehouse builder", as a tables, so can I map them in the dimensions and cubes defined with "analytic workspace manager?
please somone help, becasue I can't found this information on a manual "OLAP application's developers guide".
also, whichis the manual that I have to follow to create things in AWM? i think is this that I use "OLAP application's developers guide"
Someone can tell me something?
Thanks.

Hi,
I.m using OWB 10.1.0.4.0 and choosing "Project" then "Metadata Export" and finally "Bridge" I can lanch a wizard that allow me to choose between 3 kind of export.
If you choose OLAP the wizard will ask you which collection of metadata to export and other options, after succesfully running this wizard (which is not so easy) you can open the AWM and see the export of your dimesion and cube iside an AW.
I'm finding lots of problems using this feature due to the limited options I can set to the cube and the dimension (type of aggregations, calculated measures, limit on the number of measures in the cube, etc.).
Waiting for the new OWB Paris if you can post your experience it will be very appreciated.
Good luck,
Franco

Analytic Workspace Manager 11.2.0.3.0a and Oracle11g 11.2.0.4

Hello!
I'm trying to connect from Analytic Workspace Manager, version 11.2.0.3.0a (latest one), to Oracle server ver. 11.2.0.4. Connection fails with following message "This version of Analytic Workspace Manager is incompatible with the database instance.". Is there a way to make this work? The solution I'm aware of is to downgrade a server. Maybe someone knows other solutions?
Best regards

Creating a DWMQY DIMENSION using Analytic Workspace Manager

Hi everyone,
I need some help creating a "time aware" (DAY, WEEK, MONTH, QUARTER, and YEAR) dimension using Analytic Workspace Manager.
Let me give you some background. I'm coming from a traditional "Oracle Express" OLAP background where all our data is stored in cubes and these are defined, populated and operated on using OLAP DML, there is no SQL or traditional relational tables involved.
I now want to pull data from relational tables into some OLAP cubes and am using Analytic Workspace Manager to do this (maybe this is not the best way?)
Let me explain what I'm trying to achieve. In OLAP worksheet I can type the following DML commands:
DEFINE MY_DAY DIMENSION DAY
MAINTAIN MY_DAY ADD TODAY '01JAN2011'
What this will do is create a "day dimension" and will populate it with values for each and every day between 1st Jan 2011 and today. It will be fully "time aware" and thus you can use date functions such as DAYOF to limit the MY_DAY dimension to all the Fridays etc. Similarly if I define a "month dimension" there will be an automatic implicit relationship between these two dimensions, this relationship and time aware cleverness is built into Oracle.
However, a dimension defined using DML commands (and indeed all objects created using DML language) is not visible in Analytic Workspace Manager (as there is no metadata for them?) and for the life of me I cannot work out how to create such a dimension using AWM. If I create a "Time Dimension" then, as far as I can tell, this is not a proper time dimension but merely a text dimension and I, presume, I have to teach it time awareness.
Can anyone help me? I have no issues creating, and populating cubes from relational tables using Analytic Workspace Manager, the only issue I have is creating a "proper" time aware dimension.
Many thanks in anticipation.
Ian.

When a dimension is of type "TIME" in AWM, then for each member of that dimension, you need END_DATE and TIMESPAN attributes in addition to the key column and description column.
So in your case, if there are 5 levels: DAY->WEEK->MONTH->QTR->YEAR
then you will need atleast 15 columns in your source sql table/view
or 20 columns if you have separate column for description.
For example the columns in your source table/view could be:
DAY_ID,
DAY_DESC,
DAY_END_DATE, (which will be that day's date)
DAY_TIMESPAN, (which will be 1)
WEEK_ID,
WEEK_DESC,
WEEK_END_DATE,
WEEK_TIMESPAN,
MONTH_ID,
MONTH_DESC,
MONTH_END_DATE,
MONTH_TIMESPAN,
QTR_ID,
QTR_DESC,
QTR_END_DATE,
QTR_TIMESPAN,
YEAR_ID,
YEAR_DESC,
YEAR_END_DATE,
YEAR_TIMESPAN
Just "map" this table/view to the 5-level time dimension in AWM.
NOTE that behind-the-scenes lot of useful structures are automatically defined to support time-series measures,
and there are lot of calculation templates available also.
Since you came from Express background, I have to say that try to use new OLAP Expression Syntax when creating calculated measures instead of OLAP DML.
Its very rare these days that we need OLAP DML.

Invisible structure in Analytic Workspace Manager after importing from EIF

Hello,
I got problem with migration OFA structure (6.3.4) to Oracle OLAP. My Oracle Database is 11.2 Enterprise Edition
1. I've exported OFA database do eif file.
2. I've created user in Oracle database, grant olap_user and created directory
3. I installed Analytic Workspace Manager 11.2.0.3.0A
4. After connection on Analytic Workspaces I run 'Create Analytic Workspace from EIF file ...' -> The import was succeeded
Here is the problem - there is no visible imported structure in the tree under Analytic Workspaces. I think that structures were properly imported. That Analytic Workspace is in the sql results:
select dbal.owner||'.'||substr(dbal.table_name,4) awname, sum(dbas.bytes)/1024/1024 as mb, dbas.tablespace_name from dba_lobs dbal, dba_segments dbas where dbal.column_name = 'AWLOB' and dbal.segment_name = dbas.segment_name group by dbal.owner, dbal.table_name, dbas.tablespace_name order by dbal.owner, dbal.table_name
I've also tried using Analytic Workspace Manager Worksheet.
AW CREATE OFA_TEST
IMPORT ALL FROM EIF FILE 'c/baza.eif' DATA DFNS
UPDATE
COMMIT
The results are the same :(
What else should be done ? can anyone pls help me on this??
Grzegorz

Grzegorz,
OFA to OLAP is not an easy thing if you are trying to do it by hand. That is why we built an OFA conversion utility into our product. Example time for Full OFA to OLAP/Escendo conversion is about three days for an OFA system of 300-400Gb, including data, processes (Solves) reports, saved selections etc.)
Part of the problem is that OFA is an application which uses a ton of back end catalogs which drive everything. It also makes very heavy use of saved selections internally which makes straight export and import tough.
The overall process is that all of the visible structures need to be created within OLAP so that they are visible. We support both 'public' (ergo visible, metadata based) objects as well as 'back end' structures which are not visible to the front end. If you need business logic translated over it can get complicated to do by hand as well, since things don't map directly into the way Oracle does things in AWM now, due to some differences between the architectures.
One of the great things about putting your OFA into OLAP is that everything becomes available to any standard SQL reporting application.
Our IDE is a full mulit-developer environment which allows multiple developers to work even within the same AW, for any operation, including creation of dimensions, measures etc. as well as the editing of code in programs & models.
Are you just trying to get the data in? or are you wanting to use the system like you would use OFA?

Analytic Workspace Manager 9.2.0.4

Hi
When I attempt to create a workspace in Analytic Workspace Manager an error message is displayed saying that the database I am using is not a 9.2.0.2 compatible database and the DBMS_AWM package cannot be found.
I have, however, patched my database to 9.2.0.5. Is Analytic Workspace Manager version 9.0.4 incompatible with Oracle DB version 9.2.0.5?
My environment setup is as follows:
Analytic Workspace Manager (9.2.0.4)
Oracle DB 9i Rel 2 (9.2.0.5)
Windows XP Professional SP 2.
Thanks
Ryan

AWM 9.2.0.4.1 is forward compatible on the 9.2 code stream. It works with the current 9.2.0.5.0 and 9.2.0.6 patch sets. My guess is that the Post Installation steps for the 9.2.0.5.0 patch set were not performed. For example, did the catpatch.sql script run? A lot of people overlook this required step in the readme.
In order to check to see if your patch set was installed correctly, perform the following query:
SQL> select comp_name, version, status from dba_registry;
You should see 9.2.0.5 and VALID for the OLAP components.

Analytic Workspace Manager 10.2.0.1.0A available

Analytic Workspace Manager 10.2.0.1.0A is now available. You can find it on MetaLink as PS# 4656244 or OTN at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/bi/olap/index.html.
What is AWM 10.2.0.1.0A? It is a patched, stand-alone client that supercedes the version found on the Oracle Database Client CD for 10gR2.
What's the background on AWM 10.2.0.1.0A? It was initially created to fix issues while connecting to Oracle OLAP 10.1.0.4.0 but over time picked up some other fixes.
Which Oracle OLAP versions does AWM 10.2.0.1.0A work with? It works with Oracle OLAP 10.1.0.4.0 and above on the Oracle Database 10gR1 code stream and Oracle Database 10.2.0.1.0.
Does AWM 10.2.0.1.0A require a corresponding Oracle OLAP 'A' patch to the database? No
Is there scheduled an AWM 10.1.0.5 or any other future 10gR1 version? No, AWM 10.1.0.4 users can move to AWM 10.2.0.1.0A.

Unable to create dimension in Analytic Workspace manager

Hi all,
I am trying to create dimension using Analytic Workspace Manager(AWM) and it throws the following error.
*"The transaction is not committable: "java.lang.RuntimeException: org.xml.sax.SAXException: Missing XML attribute: Attribute for tag: <Metadata><StandardDimension><Organization><AWPrimaryDimensionOrganization><AttributeOrganization>"*
Kindly share your comments.
I am using Oracle 11g r1 client to connect with oracle 11g R2 database.
Please let me know the steps to create a OLAP cube using AWM
Regards
Mukhil

It sounds like a mismatch between an old version of AWM and a new version of the server. Please try a more recent version of AWM.

Analytic Workspace Manager Tutorial

Greetings
I haven't had any luck getting anyone to address this (posted in oracle by example and in Business Intelligence).... the "new" tutorial "Populating Your OLAP Analytic Workspace Using Analytic Workspace Manager" <http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/awm/awm.htm> has a bug on the javascript that loads all images (i.e., "eyeglass"). All other Oracle By Example tutorials pass in a "static" list of images to be loaded into the "MM__swapImage()" function (ref http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/odm/odm.htm) . This "new" tutorial however uses a function called "preLoadImages() in which an array is attempted to be built from the contents of "document.images" this property appears to be empty (perhaps some path issue getting all the images?) .... regardless there is nothing in this property and so subsequently nothing to "preload"... the end result of activating the "onmouseover" event is an "error on page" due to the "newImg.src" array being empty. Can anyone address this?
After no action on my previous efforts I attempted to open a service request on Metalink and of course they sent me back to the forums here.... (suggesting "downloads" and "feedback" forums)

Yes.... that "eyeglass" javascript is the issue....(you will have to do a "view source" on the page to see the javascript functions I'm talking about)....
The "onmouseover" for this eyeglass icon works fine on all the other tutorials, but on this one I get no images, (did you try to download all the images via that javascript?) I get an "error on page" in which the javascript indicates that newImg.src is null..... "newImg.src" is the array where all of the images should be read into....via the function "preLoadImages()", combined with showAllImages(), and hideAllImages(), I'm suspecting that there is an issue with the relative directory on the website or some other path issue realated to the javascript "document" object....
BTW the other tutorials (e.g., http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe10gdb/bidw/odm/odm.htm) seem to use a different method.... instead of the "preLoadImages()" function they all seem to staticly pass all images into MM__swapImage() for this same "onmouseover" event
