Oracle 10g OLAP option

Hi all
Do we support creating a universe against an Oracle 10g OLAP database and how do we do this to report against OLAP data?
I notice that there isn't an OLAP universe option for this, so I presume that if we can then we do this via OLAP SQL expressions?
Thank you for your help and kind regards,
Deam

Hi,
You are right, we are supporting Oracle OLAP 10g using SQL.
In fact we provide an option in Universe Designer where you can automatically create an Oracle view based on an AW (Analytical Workspace) and then generate the universe:<ul><li>Select "Metadata exchange" menu option from "File" menu
<li>Then select "Oracle OLAP 9i/10G/11g" option
</ul>You can therefore customize the universe by adding objects, filters, measures, etc.
You can also add other tables in the scema in order to provide drill-though capabilities.
Regards,
Didier

Access Oracle 10g OLAP Analytic Worspace from BOE XI for Universes creating

Hi skilled!
Is there any environment to access Oracle 10g OLAP Analytic Worspace
from BOE XI (not from BOE XIR2) for Universes creating ?
Thank you.

Hello Walter,
Thanks for the response.
I'm using the following SAP GUI: 710 Final Release, Version 7100.2.7.1038, Build 971593, Patch-Level 7.
Trying to install the Desktop part of the integration kit results in the follwoing message: Unable to perform Desktop installation. The installation is unable to proceed with a desktop installation because Crystal Reports 2008 was not detected. To perform a Desktop installation, it must be installed.
Without having installed any integration kit on the client side, I can still see the data access driver for SAP Business Warehouse 3.x in the Universe Designer (when trying to define a new connection). After providing the respective parameters, however, a connection is not established successfully. When testing the connection it just tells me that the connection trial failed (SBO0001), without providing any further details.
What do you think, is the problem? The SAP GUI? Is it at all required for my purposes (generating OLAP universes in Designer from SAP BI) to install the integration kit on the client side? As far as I have read, it is?
Thanks, Konrad

How to migrate MS SQL Server OLAP data to Oracle 10g OLAP

Hi,
Anyone has any idea on whether migration workbench can migrate my MS SQL Server OLAP data to Oracle 10g (with OLAP option) ?
Best Regards,
Ian Ho

Ian,
What exactly do you mean by SQL*Server OLAP ? Is it just a 'normal' SQL*Server database which is used for an OLAP application ?
The migration workbench migrates schema objects, triggers, and stored procedures and is not concerned with the application that uses those objects.
And the same with the Oracle OLAP database. Once the data etc has been moved into the database you can then use it for whichever application you want.
If you have concerns apart from moving the actual data then please give us more details.
Regards,
Mike

Oracle 10g OLAP CWM2/AW

Are CWM2 packages obsolute in Oracle 10g? I could not find documentation of CWM2 in Oracle 10g docs. It has only AW.

Sorry. I ,eamt obsolete. CWM2 Packages are built-in packages to support Common Warehouse Model. For example, create_cube etc. And AW is Analytic Workspace. I like to know that whether in latest Oracle 10g version with OLAP options, CWM2 packages are available or not.

Oracle 10g OLAP to 11g OLAP upgrade ?

We currently are planning on a upgrade from 10g OLAP => 11g OLAP. We currently have 12 AWM's in 10g OLAP which we need to move over with associated DML programs and additional SQL reporting views.
Questions:
1. Is there any documentation available on necessary steps for 10g OLAP => 11g OLAP upgrade?
2. What would happen to existing AWM's prepared in 10g, would they be migrated to 11g transparently or have to be re-created?
3. Is there any specific documentation related to changes in way cube builds are done programatically?
4. Any changes in the way limit maps work in 11g?
Please advise.
Thanks,
Sudip

Migrating a 10g cube to 11g depends on whether you are talking about 11gR1 or 11gR2. 10g cubes continue to operate in the "10g way" even after a database upgrade. They will not become "11g cubes" until they are rebuilt after the database upgrade. In 11gR2, there is a supported way to migrate 10g cubes to 11g cubes, both with AWM and with PL/SQL. Sorry to say... this functionality doesn't exist in 11gR1: you'll have to rebuild your cubes from the ground up.
The SQL relational views built using the AWM plugin in 10g are no longer applicable in 11g. That's because OLAP cubes in 11g are registered in the oracle data dictionary (just like other Oracle objects), and the SQL relational views are managed in the database and a recognized part of the product. The SQL relational views are quite different in 11g, so you will likely have to rewrite queries against them.
LIMIT map syntax is the same, but performance is much better.
See if this blog entry helps:

Discoverer and Oracle 9i Olap Option

Hello,
I have a question regarding Discoverer and OLAP option in Oracle 9i. Is it required to buy OLAP Option
with Oracle9i when using 9iAS Discoverer or can I use it without this option?
As I know Oracle BI Beans make use of 9i OLAP Option and Discoverer Graphs use Graph Component of BI
Beans, so how this situation concerns OLAP Option (I haven't found any information that OLAP Option is required to use Discoverer)?
Regards,
Aleksander Miler

Hi,
Oracle OLAP is a multidimensional database on the top of the Oracle 9i database. It works like Oracle Express(MOLAP server).
Anyway, you don't need to install Oracle OLAP option when you use Discoverer.

Oracle 10g olap cube connectivity issue using Crystal Reports 2008

Hi
Kindly help me out with a solution. I have created a cube in oracle 10gR2 database using Oracle Analytic Workspace Manager. I am trying to connect to this cube using Crystal report Olap datasorces. But I am only getting 4 options to connect to Hyperion Essbase, HOLOS Cube, Microsoft OLEDB, Microsoft OLAP Analysis Services 8.0 and 9.0. I am not getting any option for connection to Oracle OLAP. How do I do that or if it does not support kindly let me know.
Thanks in advance

Oracle 10g database options

We have Oracle 10.2. I used dba_registry to get database options. How to find these options' dependencies?
dba_dependencies has dependencies for all packages, funtions, procedures and triggers. But options are Oracle components.
My purpose is that we don't need some options and need to get rid of them. Before I do it, I need to see options' dependencies.
Please advise.
Thanks

What "things" are they asking you to remove?
Most likely this person or persons has no idea the danger and consequences of what they are asking.
The security of an Oracle database is not enhanced by removing anything that shows up in DBA_REGISTRY.
Here's the list:

OLAP option and 10g Standard Edition

Hi,
I have a small question. I want to find out if it is possible to have the OLAP option for my DB if I possess a Oracle 10g Standard Edition, or Standard Edition One license.
I've checked the product note for EE, SE and SE One. Only EE contains a word about OLAP option. But as its just an Option, can't we have it with SE also?
Thanks
Goga

Oracle is kind enough to document this information. I encourage you to become familiar with the 'Licensing' document, and in this case, the first 2 paragraphs of chapter 2.
For your convenience, I've provided the link to that doc for 10gR2:

"In-Memory Database Cache" option for Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition

Hi,
In one of our applications, we are using TimesTen 5.1.24 and Oracle 9i
databases (platform - Solaris 9i).
TimesTen holds application information which needs to be accessed quickly
and Oracle 9i is a master application database.
Now we are looking at an option of migrating from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10g
database. While exploring about Oracle 10g features, came to know about
"In-Memory Database Cache" option for Oracle Enterprise Edition. This made
me to think about using Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition with "In-Memory
Database Cache" option for our application.
Following are the advantages that I could visualize by adopting the
above-mentioned approach:
1. Data reconciliation between Oracle and TimesTen is not required (i.e.
data can be maintained only in Oracle tables and for caching "In-Memory
Database Cache" can be used)
2. Data maintenance is easy and gives one view access to data
I have following queries regarding the above-mentioned solution:
1. What is the difference between "TimesTen In-Memory Database" and
"In-Memory Database Cache" in terms of features and licensing model?
2. Is "In-Memory Database Cache" option integrated with Oracle 10g
installable or a separate installable (i.e. TimesTen installable with only
cache feature)?
3. Is "In-Memory Database Cache" option same as that of "TimesTen Cache
Connect to Oracle" option in TimesTen In-Memory Database?
4. After integrating "In-Memory Database Cache" option with Oracle 10g, data
access will happen only through Oracle sqlplus or OCI calls. Am I right here
in making this statement?
5. Is it possible to cache the result set of a join query in "In-Memory
Database Cache"?
In "Options and Packs" chapter in Oracle documentation
(http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/license.102/b14199/options.htm
#CIHJJBGA), I encountered the following statement:
"For the purposes of licensing Oracle In-Memory Database Cache, only the
processors on which the TimesTen In-Memory Database component of the
In-Memory Database Cache software is installed and/or running are counted
for the purpose of determining the number of licenses required."
We have servers with the following configuration. Is there a way to get the
count of processors on which the Cache software could be installed and/or
running? Please assist.
Production box with 12 core 2 duo processors (24 cores)
Pre-production box with 8 core 2 duo processors (16 cores)
Development and test box with 2 single chip processors
Development and test box with 4 single chip processors
Development and test box with 6 single chip processors
Thanks & Regards,
Vijay

Hi Vijay,
regarding your questions:
1. What is the difference between "TimesTen In-Memory Database" and
"In-Memory Database Cache" in terms of features and licensing model?
==> Product has just been renamed and integrated better with the Oracle database - Times-Ten == In-Memory-Cache-Database
2. Is "In-Memory Database Cache" option integrated with Oracle 10g
installable or a separate installable (i.e. TimesTen installable with only
cache feature)?
==> Seperate Installation
3. Is "In-Memory Database Cache" option same as that of "TimesTen Cache
Connect to Oracle" option in TimesTen In-Memory Database?
==> Please have a look here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/timesten/quickstart/cc_qs_index.html
This explains the differences.
4. After integrating "In-Memory Database Cache" option with Oracle 10g, data
access will happen only through Oracle sqlplus or OCI calls. Am I right here
in making this statement?
==> Please see above mentioned papers
5. Is it possible to cache the result set of a join query in "In-Memory
Database Cache"?
==> Again ... ;-)
Kind regards
Mike

In Oracle 10g, How to call a report since an option of a menu (*.mmb)

Hello
In Oracle 10g, working since the browser, how to call a report since an option of a menu (*.mmb)? I know to call it in a form (*.fmb), therefore uses the fields bean area and the objects reports, but in a menu there is not neither canvas, neither fields, neither reports. Someone would be able to help me with that?
Kisses. Thanks.
Annie

I understand that you had sent me everything,
I sent for example to you that, no to insert it in your item's menu code,
then,You have to modify it.
... but
a menu (mmb) doesn't have to define him reports
objects... then, what parameter I send to the
function FIND_REPORT_OBJECT:
This is not true
Try out this, and then let me know
You do not need to have a report object defined in the menu. It is enough to have it in forms.
I tried to call a report from the menu in the folowing way:
I created a menu and wrote the following code in one item:
DECLARE
repid REPORT_OBJECT;
v_rep VARCHAR2(100);
BEGIN
repid := find_report_object('report2');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_EXECUTION_MODE, RUNTIME);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid, REPORT_COMM_MODE, SYNCHRONOUS);
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESFORMAT,'pdf');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_SERVER,'reportserver1');
SET_REPORT_OBJECT_PROPERTY(repid,REPORT_DESNAME,'C:\p.pdf');
v_rep := RUN_REPORT_OBJECT(repid);
END;Then I created a form with a report object called report2.
I attached the menu to this form and while running this form, I was able to successfully run the report.
In your case, you have to make sure that you have the dummy report object in each form that will have this attached menu.
You can replace by the actual report name as you have written in the code.
