OMB Plus

1)when I am going to import external table in schema(the cshema is source not target I am not able to import it.We can import the table in any target schema .But the problem arises when I am going to import the external table in source schema using ombplus.Please help me to let me know the ombplus command to import external table into the source schema.because normally the import command in ombplus work if u r importing table in target schema
2)Is it possible to deploy maps using ombplus by removing its hint.Hint removal should be in ombplus not manual.

Hi Andreas,
I don't directly have an example for your specific questions, but take a look here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/warehouse/sdk/Scripting%20Pages/Scripting_home.htm
This gives you at least something to start and get the basic stuff done using OMB Plus. Also google on tcl reference...

What is the diffrence between OMB plus command and OMB command

what is the diffrence between OMB plus command and OMB command?
are they both TCL command?

Hi Alena,
Welcome to SDN.
Check this
EXIT in Loops and Modularization Units
Basic form
EXIT.
Effect
Within a loop structure:
Terminates looop processing (DO, WHILE, LOOP, SELECT).
Within subroutines and other modularization units (but not in a loop structure):
Leaves the subroutine or modularization unit (FORM, MODULE, FUNCTION, TOP-OF-PAGE, END-OF-PAGE).
Outside loop structures and modularization units (report processing):
Terminates report processing and triggers list display.
But not sure about
atexit() .. ,may use in Object Oriented Programming.

Hi EdStevens,
Following the instructions in previous post, I can connect with SQL plus (the database is on the same box* as your sqlplus client); I just enter sqlplus in windows console.
In addition, i am still curious about how SQL plus connect to a remote* box. Could you shed more light on that?SQLPlus connects to a remote db the same way any other app does. After all, sqlplus is just another client app.
It's all in the connect string. So say, at a command prompt you enter
$> sqlplus scott/tiger@mydbso in the above example, 'scott' is the user, 'tiger' is the password, and 'mydb' is the tns service name. Of course, the OS passes all that to sqlplus as a command line parameter. Internally, sqlplus makes a call to the tns layer and passes it the connect information it has. TNS will take a look at the tnsnames.ora file and find an entry for 'mydb', and from there it will get the name or ip address of the host server, a port number, and a service name. That information will be passed on down the network stack for routing. (If a name was provided instead of an ip address, the OS network stack will use whatever means are at its disposal - a hosts file, a dns lookup, or whatever, to get an ip address). The request will arrive at the specified host and placed on the specified port. If everything was configured correctly, there will be an oracle listener process monitoring that port. It will pick up the request and see if it recognizes the service name. If it does, it will spawn a user server process on a different port to complete the connection, then get out of the way and continue listening for more requests.
This is how it happens most of the time. There are a lot of other variants, but that's the gist of it.
More information can be found in the fine documentation at tahiti.oracle.com.

Installing OMB Plus in Oracle JDeveloper

Hello
I have JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0, and I like to enable the IDE for OMBPlus development.
I followed the guide at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/owb.111/b31279.pdf (appendix Installing OMB Plus in Oracle JDeveloper)
1. Drop shiphome/owb/lib/int/OMBPlus_jdev.jar in the JDeveloper
installation directory/lib/ext directory.
2. Start JDeveloper.
3. From the Tools menu, select Preferences, OMBPlus, and then OMBPlus
Installation to set the Warehouse Builder installation directory. For example,
c:\oracle\ora81. Do not include the Warehouse Builder directory at the end
of this path.
4. Restart JDeveloper.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 each time you change the Warehouse Builder installation
directory.
However I do not get a OMBPlus menu in the Preferences window.
Can you please help me?
/kasper

kasper,
There is a bug report in support.oracle.com with the exact same symptoms - I could find no documentation about the version of JDev supported by OMBPlus, but I'm strongly guessing that JDev 11 isn't supported. In fact, I guarantee it.
I've cracked open OMBPlus.jar and had a look at the extension manifest - it's for JDev 9.0.x, which isn't available to download any more. Your best bet would probably be to file a support request to see what they have to say.

Executing SQL command in OMB PLUS

How can we execute sqlplus commands in OMB PLus command prompt ?

I don't know if there are any special OMB built in commands, but since it is a superset of TCL, you could use:
exec sqlplus ...

How to stop a scheduled job using OMB*Plus ?

Hello everyone,
I use a OMB*Plus script to deploy a project in various environments. This includes scheduled jobs.
In this context, I need to stop the schedules of the previous versions to avoid a script crash.
I found the OMBSTOP command thad could do, but I need to retrieve the job ID of the schedule I want to stop. And I don't know how to get the Job ID.
I could get it from a previous launch and save it somewhere, but it wouldn't work if the schedule was manually stopped and restarted. Maybe is there a command that lists the running / scheduled jobs and their IDs? I didn't find it.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Cedric.

Frankly, I cannot see where this is available via pure OMB+, however you could back-door it if if you can figure out how to get these values from the public views (I would guess from the "Scheduling Views" section at http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/owb.102/b28225/toc.htm).
Then you could use my SQL library from OMB+ to get these values and stop the schedules before deploying. you can save this file as omb_sql_library.tcl and then just "source /path/to/omb_sql_library.tcl in your own script to make the functions available in your script.

{code}
So you would want to connect to the control center, query for scheduled jobs, stop them, and then continue on with your deployment. I assume that you also need to pause and check that an scheduled job in mid-run has time to exit before moving ahead. You could do a sleep loop querying against system tables looking for active sessions running mappings and waiting until they are all done or something if you really want to bulletproof the process.
Hope this helps,

Problem using OMB*Plus

Hello,
I'm getting this error when trying to connect to design repository via OMB*Plus:
"OMB01118: Could not connect to repository! PRS-00306: Internal Error: Could not undo reservation for client .
Please contact Oracle Support with the stack trace and details on how to reproduce it."
Here's the interesting part:\
1) I CAN connect to the same repos. from OWB client AND
2) I can connect to this repository from a different box using OMB*PLus.
Further, OMB*PLus itself on the box in question is not screwed up, as I can connect to repos. on other boxes!
What could the problem be?
Thanks in advance,
Alex.

I went further with investigating my scripting problem:
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'OWBRT92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
OMB01118: Could not connect to repository! Database connection error!
So I tried to alter pieces of my connect statement:
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:wrong USE REPOSITORY 'OWBRT92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
API0420: Error message: Io exception: Connection refused(DESCRIPTION=(TMP=)(VSNN
UM=153092608)(ERR=12514)(ERROR_STACK=(ERROR=(CODE=12514)(EMFI=4))))
API0424: Please check if the the Oracle Service Name is correct.
Obviously, connect string to database is OK !
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'OWBRT92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
API0420: Error message: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
And obviously, repository user is well identified !
Since I tried using either 'SINGLE_USER_MODE', 'MULTIPLE_USER_MODE' and nothing and it brings the very laconic same OMB01118 message, I guess it has to deal with "use repository clause
I tried to alter it to see what happens:
OMBCONNECT OWBRT92USER/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'WRONG' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
...but it brings the very same OMB01118 message.
Now I tried to connect to development repository:
OMBCONNECT OWBDEV92/[email protected]:1521:EDW USE REPOSITORY 'OWBDEV92' USE MULTIPLE_USER_MODE
Connected.
Well, cool, 'means I can connect to devt. repository but I want to deploy to runtime and if I usE:
OMBDEPLOY SPECIFICATION FROM C:\TEMP\deploytest.xml
it yields:
OMB05608: Connection to Runtime Platform has not been made.
Well, what can I do ?
Documentation B12187_02_Warehouse Builder Scripting Reference.pdf (chap. 2-12, page 48) mentions a OMBCONNECT_RUNTIME command that does not exist and the example is a strict copy of OMBCONNECT (even the example does not use OMBCONNECT_RUNTIME)
OMB+> OWMBCONNECT_RUNTIME
invalid command name "OWMBCONNECT_RUNTIME"
I'm really stuck.
Does anyone else connect to a runtime repository to deploy from a xml file ?
Thanks

Execute process flow with OMB*Plus

Hello,
somebody know how to execute a process flow designed with OWB 9.0.4.8.21 within OMB*Plus?
Thanks,
Pedro

Currently it is not possible to execute Process Flows or Mappings from OMB. OMB is to be used mostly as a metadata manipulation and processing platform, not for run-time management.
What you could do is to put OMB metadata operation commands and runtime execution commands one after the other in a shell script and then run everything from this shell script (if this is what you are trying to do).

How to properly create a calendar using OMB*Plus, to schedule a workflow ?

Hello all,
I want to schedule a workflow when deploying via OMB*Plus.
It looks like I have a syntax error, but this happens even with the example given on
[the OMBCREATE CALENDAR documentation|http://download-uk.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/owb.102/b28225/omb_4create_1.htm#sthref1427]
My code is:
OMBCREATE CALENDAR 'SCH_DELTA_test2' ADD SCHEDULE \
SET PROPERTIES (REPEAT_EXPRESSION)\
VALUES ('FREQ=WEEKLY;INTERVAL=1;BYDAY=TUE WED THU FRID SAT;BYHOUR=12;BYMINUTE=0;BYSECOND=0') ]
If I copy-paste an example from the doc, the last line becomes :
VALUES ('FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=20') ]
The result is:
OMB00001: Encountered \' at line: 1, column: 95. Was expecting one of: <INTEGER_LITERAL> ...
<FLOATING_POINT_LITERAL> ...
<QUOTED_STRING> ...
The position line: 1, column: 95 is the opening quote of the last line, just before FREQ=
I can't find any way to get this working. If anyone see something wrong or missing, please advise. Thanks in advance.
Cedric.

Hello Oleg,
I followed your advice, but OMB*Plus doesn't like it, as it seems :
the code:
OMBCREATE CALENDAR 'CAl_SCH_DELTA' ADD SCHEDULE 'SCH_DELTA' SET PROPERTIES (REPEAT_EXPRESSION) VALUES ('FREQ=MINUTELY;INTERVAL=20')
the error:
OMB00001: Encountered SCH_DELTA at line: 1, column: 49. Was expecting one of: <E
OF>
"SET" ...

OMB Plus Script for creating a project

Hi,
I am totally new to this OMB Plus.
Ok. My concern over here is we have been working on some new Mappings. However now for the testing purpose these Maps would be deployed on some other schema with pure Deployment process.
So i found that while importing the Maps it encountered me an error, the reason was that it was trying to find a project which doesnot exists as its new Source. Ideally importing the Mpas would have created the project automatically but it gave me error.
Now, to overcome this i thought why not use the OMB Plus script in order to overcome this issue. So i want to creat a .tcl script which will run and will create a project and then once created i may able to import the maps or the complete project without any error.
So could you please help me with some commands, because on the internet nowhere is mentioned how to create a project or to import a non-existing project.
Please Help!!!!

Hi Experts,
I tried the above link it is really usefull.
However, when i execute the below statement i m getting an error at the step 2.
Step1:
OMBCONNECT <USER_NAME>/<PASSWORD>@<HOST NAME>:<PORT NO>:<SERVICE NAME>
Step2:
OMBCREATE PROJECT 'CPP_CPEPLUS'
Error: oracle.wh.repos.sdk.exceptions.WBException: OWB_NS_FATAL_ERROR100ORA-01403: no data found
PS: I successfully connected the Step1.
Please Help!!!!

Registering OWB-user without Designer and OMB Plus?

Is there any way, to register an owb-user via sql or PL/SQL?
Reason: The (customer-)dbas don´t allow to use an OMB Plus/TCL-script or the OWB Designer in the production environment :-(

Do you want to register a location?
If that's the case:
What version of OWB are you on? If you're on versions lower than 10gR2, you could create an extra runtime connection to the production environment in your test or acceptance environment, register the production locations from the deployment manager and deploy the connectors.
I don't know how to do this in 10gR2
Good luck in fooling the DBA's ;-)

Auto Bind in OMB*Plus

Hello,
Can I use the "auto bind" feature to bind a dimension to a table from OMB*plus? How? Or do I need to map it all manually if I want to script it?
rergards,

You can use autobind from scripting also, so construct your dimension definition and then using something like;
OMBALTER DIMENSION 'YOURDIMENSION' IMPLEMENTED BY SYSTEM STAR
Cheers

Update the TCL-version used by OWB Scripting OMB Plus

While implementing scripts under OMB Plus, I need to use/import some already existing TCL-libraries. This libraries need a TCL-version 8.2 or higher. But the TCL-version installed with the OracleWarehouseBuilder is 8.0.
How can I update the TCL-version used by OWB Scripting (OMB Plus)?
thanks

Hi
I would also like to know how to do this as on certain platforms some basic TCL commands don't work when run in scripts so upgrading the TCL version should hopefully fix this.
Thanks In Advance
Ian

OMB Plus to set CDC properties of Oracle Module

Hi,
Does anybody know if it is possible to set the CDC properties of an Oracle Module using OMB Plus?
I was thinking in the lines of
OMBALTER ORACLE_MODULE 'MY_CDC_MODULE' SET PROPERTIES (CDC_CODE_TEMPLATE) VALUES ('PUBLIC_PROJECT/BUILT_IN_CT/JCT_10G_CONSISTENT_MINER')
but this does not work, and I can't see any appropriate properties in the documentation.
In addition to setting the CDC template I would like to be able to choose the tables to include in CDC using a script as well. Any help would be appreciated
Roald
Edited by: roheie on Oct 12, 2010 12:17 AM

Hi Oleg,
I think I may need to clarify my question. I am no trying to alter a template mapping, I am trying to alter the properties of the Oracle Module that is the source for the CDC template mappings
What I am trying to do in the script is the same operation as you do in the Design Center when you expand Databases->Oracle and then double click your 'CDC_SOURCE_SYSTEM' (example name) module to get to the properties wizard. In there you can set 'Metadata Location', 'Data Location', 'CDC Code Template', and 'CDC tables'. The first two of these I am already setting in my script, what I am asking is how I can set the last two of these properties
Regards,
Roald

OMB plus Creating Locations Modules And Importing the Metadata?

Hi All,
First of all I would like to thank you all of you in advance for all your time and concern. I have serious of questions and I will ask them in 3 different portions as they are slightly different.
How can I implement the steps below using OMB plus? If you could provided sample script and notation it will be highly appreciated.
-- Creating an Oracle Location for a Schema and Registering it
-- Creating an Module and relating it to the location that was created.
-- Importing the metadata for all the objects in this Schema in to this module.
For example,
You have a schema called ORACLE_SRC. I need to create the location and module for this schema and tie them each other. Then I need to import all the metadata for all the objects in this ORACLE_SRC schema. During this import all the preserve statements should be unchecked. And I need to accomplish all these using OMB plus and TCL scripting.
-- Creating an Non Oracle (SQL server 2005) Location for a database and Registering it
-- Creating an Module and relating it to the location that was created.
-- Importing the metadata for all the objects in this Schema in to this module.
For example,
You have a schema called SQLSERVER_SRC. I need to create the location and module for this schema and tie them each other. Then I need to import all the metadata for all the objects in this SQLSERVER_SRC schema. During this import all the preserve statements should be unchecked. And I need to accomplish all these using OMB plus and TCL scripting.
-- Creating an Flat File Location for a folder structure and Registering it
-- Creating an Module and relating it to the location that was created.
For example,
You have a schema called FLATFILE_SRC. I need to create the location and module for this schema and tie them each other.
Thanks again for all your help and concern!
Kind Regards,
Mike

In addition to the performance issue above I have faced an extremely more important problem. When I have used the same logic for importing Materialized views I am getting an error at the last step of the script. It is exactly the same case also for EXTERNAL_TABLE objects. TABLE and VIEW objects are fine. OMBIMPORT command throw the error message below.

I would like to mention that MATERIALIZED_VIEW is the object name I took from OWB scripting Reference guide. I have tried couple other naming conventions too but it didn't work.
Strange thing is If I were to change MATERIALIZED_VIEW to TABLE it works but the materialized view gets imported into 'Tables' folder under the module.
Please help?
     #IMPORT FOR MATERIALIZED VIEWS STARTS
