Anyone knows how to implement Decomposition Tree in Oracle BI products? to

Hello Everybody
Recently I'm trying to use Oracle BIEE plus to upgrade our old report service in our product. I'm a newbee to OracleBI products but I have a question that oracle support guys in our region also could figure out a clear answer. If anybody here can give me some clues it would be appreciated.
I once used ProClarity BI product before, and ProClarity report service can provide a very powerful visualization tool like Decomposition Tree. I'm quite interested this function. But I searched many Oracle BIEE plus and ESSBASE documents, it seems Oracle BI can' implements the functional for which Proclrity Decomposition Tree can provided?
Is there any body knows any other solution to implement Decomposition Tree in Oracle BI product?
Thanks

Appreciated the quick response:)
Yes. I don't find the directory object .. I'm not very familiar with biee so far so might be me slight this object in my investigation.
I need to check this object and see how it works.
And thanks for your advise.

How to determine which of the Oracle security products have been installed

Hello!
I would like to determine whether or not the Oracle security products have been installed for an Oracle database.
The Oracle security products are:
* Oracle Database Vault
* Oracle Audit Vault
* Oracle Configuration Management
* Oracle Total Recall
* Oracle Advanced Security
* Oracle Data Masking
* Oracle Label Security
* Oracle Secure Backup
* Oracle Database Firewall
So what I thought is to look at the "DBA_REGISTRY" table which displays information about the components loaded into the database.
But on the other hand there also is the "V$OPTION" view which lists database options and features.
Does anybody know, how I could correctly determine whether or not each of the product is installed?
I guess for "Oracle Database Vault" I should query V$OPTION, but what should I do with the other ones? And in case DBA_REGISTRY would be the right table, how would the comp_ids look like for the products?
SELECT 'Oracle Database Vault' , nvl( (SELECT VALUE FROM V$OPTION WHERE PARAMETER = 'Oracle Database Vault'),'FALSE') FROM sys.dual
OR
SELECT 'Oracle Database Vault' , nvl2( (SELECT 'valueFound' FROM DBA_REGISTRY WHERE comp_id = '??????' AND status NOT IN ('INVALID', 'REMOVING' , 'REMOVED')),'TRUE','FALSE') FROM sys.dual
Thanks in advance

Difference between Oracle ORDM Product and Retail POS Suite

Can someone please tell me if the Oracle ORDM Product and the Retail POS Suite by Oracle is the same or different.
Regards,
Akshatha

Thanks for the reply.
So, ORDM is a datawarehouse model which could be used for the analytics purpose like generating reports on the organisation's performance, having key performance indicators to measure up the metrics.
And, Oracle Retail PoS Suite is a Point of Sale Application which can be used to carry out the activities related to point of sale.
Please let me know if my understanding is appropriate.
Thanks in Advance for the help.

Struggling with oracle clustered production environment

Hi Experts,
I have a requirement to upgrade Oracle Data Integrator(ODI) from 10.1.3.5 to 11.1.1.6.3 We have a Clustered production environment where N1 will be up when N2 be down and viceversa.
Here N1 and N2 are the ODI servers as well as DB(11g Release 2) servers. They both access the SHARED CLUSTERED database.
From ODI we will generally point the Oracle clustered IP(Virtual IP) which will internally point either N1 or N2 whichever is active.
ODI application wise we are clear about the procedure.
Having some issues on DB related activities.
1. Should I break the cluster definitely? Cant I do the activity without breaking the cluster?
2. Do I need to point N1, N2, Clustered IP (Virtual IP) while doing the activities?
3. Since its a clustered database, do I need to db related activities once or twice? (Twice means, manually on both the servers)
4. As they are using same file structures (RAC), If the Virtual IP points N1 by default, assume that I create two new users and log in is success. Now i manually point N2 and what will happen if I try to log in to the two new users from N2. will it work?
5. If it will not work, then what would be the solution for this?
Please someone suggest about the clustered environment production problem.
As this is high priority, early response would be highly appreciated.
Need Expert's suggestions for the sequence of steps that to be carried out for a successful migration in clustered environment.
Many thanks in advance..!

This is an ODI question.
Please discontinue your question here and continue it in your duplicate thread here Struggling with oracle clustered production environment
Apart from that, ODI is a front-end tool. If you have any clue about RAC: for ODI it doesn't matter whether your database is RAC or not. the issue is you installed a front-end tool in a RAC environment.
Finally:
As this is high priority, early response would be highly appreciated.For high priority questions there is paid support. This is a forum of volunteers.
Asking for high priority is IMO insulting and rude.

Business Events : Oracle Advanced Product Catalog - Version: 11.5

Hi
We are using EBS R11.5.10.2
I am not able to see any events related to Oracle Advanced Product Catalog when I try to search in Business Events.
Events I am looking to find
oracle.apps.ego.item.postItemCreate
oracle.apps.ego.item.postItemUpdate
Please let me know if we need to install any patch and what is missing ?
Thanks,
Rahul

Hi Rahul,
If you cannot find those business events then you need to apply a patch -- Product Data Is Not Synchronized From E-Business Suite To Siebel CRM On-Demand [ID 549035.1]
I could not find any patch number for those events in MOS website for Oracle Apps 11i -- There are patches for R12 but it is not applicable.
Please log a SR and Oracle support should provide you with the correct patch you need to apply.
Thanks,
Hussein

Why can I download and install all of the Oracle ATS products for free?

Why can I download and install all of the Oracle ATS products for free? When I installed, I was not prompted for any licenses or to purchase anything.
I want to know why this is possible and if there are plans to charge for it in the future?

I don't know Oracle's ATS products specifically, but many of Oracle's products can be downloaded and used for free for learning purposes.
Typically, if you intend to use the products commercially then you need to pay for a licence, otherwise you are using it illegally.
This is usually described in the T&C's you agree to when you download the software.

Oracle Gateway Products

Hi All
We have EBS R12.1.3 instance, now we need to create a database link to flow the data from sql server to oracle.
We have referred "Master Note for Oracle Gateway Products [ID 1083703.1]".
IN documnet mentiones gateway for sql server is "Microsoft SQL*Server - Database Gateway for SQL*Server (DG4Msql)"
for Terradata "Teradata - Database Gateway for Teradata (DG4Teradata)".
Is this gateways are free ware or we need to bought license from oracle.
Thanks in Advance
Shaik

as per Options for Connecting to Foreign Data Stores and Non-Oracle Databases - For Example - DB2, SQL*Server, Sybase, Informix, Teradata, MySQL [ID 233876.1]
this documnet dg4odbc is free ware to access data from terradata and sql server to oracle database.That's correct, the DG4ODBC license is already covered by the enterprise edition license. However, it is always recommended to contact your Oracle Sales representative for license questions/queries.
http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/pricing/index.html
By the way, if you need to connect to SQL Server, I believe you still need to get an ODBC driver (which needs to be purchased separately, unless you go with an open source).
Thanks,

Vote For Oracle Java Products

For two days already we see vary unusual activity on the contest:
http://www.sys-con.com/java/readerschoice2002
The rate is several hundred votes in an hour!!!
Almost all votes go to IBM products.
Oracle suddenly lost leading or good positions in categories:
"Best J2EE IDE",
"Best Java Application Server",
"Best Java Developer Studio",
"Best Java IDE Environment"
They also target "Best Enterprise Database"
Vote for your favorite Oracle Java Products.

We also noticed this strange phenomena. IBM got about 1000 votes in 2 days - very suspicious.
You can change the picture by voting for your favorite products at:

Various sub-specialties are hot at various times. But that isn't as important as knowing what excites you.

5)Others (thats all i know,please add some others if they are creative )
Problem area:
1)iam really confused now which way to choose development or support?Most people find development much more exciting. But that depends on what you like and what your skill set is and the support environment. I once had a support job that I loved, until it simply became overwhelming in volume. I've seen support people in jobs that I just pitied, they were so bad. DBA is my real love, what's yours? I have a dev/support/admin job, so even though most work isn't what I would choose, I still get to do what I find exciting. It took a lot of experiences to get to this point, though.
2)how to jump in other company on what basis after total experience of 2 years? Since iam in prod support they will hire me for the same againThat is true, headhunters and HR departments want those with 2 years experience in a specific skill set, because they are cheaper. The trick is to find an environment where you can move to what you want. For many people, that is a development environment, especially if you can find a mentor that can help you move in the direction you want. Of course, you need to define that direction. Life throws all sorts of opportunities at you at random times, you need to be prepared to seize them when they come.
3)How could i get to others areas like CRM,BO datawarehouse,apps ?As they more demanding and good learning and future pathDevelopment and implementation are about it. They all have a future path, some are very boring. What's boring to me may be exciting to you.
4)what to do right now at this position to enhance my skill set in this field (What to learn? )Look at the sites that post job ads in your area. You need a critical eye to translate into what they really want, but it becomes obvious what is hot. Of course, you need to know what will be hot in a couple of years, but if you see what is hot now, you can pick up on those in a couple of years when something else is hot, and eventually catch up.

Seeking good help from forum experts.
Please suggest!A lot of work is what you make of it, attitude overrides knowledge. You can always learn, but your attitude comes from within and takes effort to improve.
If you can find something that you like that everyone else thinks is bad, so much the better. That is the essence of geekdome.

No "Oracle VM" Product Family in MOS patch search. Is it on purpose?

Hello Oracle VM Team,
Is it on purpose there is no option to select "Oracle VM" as "Product Family" in patches search interface?
It doesn't allow us to find all the greatest latest patches to be applied (installed for brand new implementations).
Can I ask you to fix it if it sounds reasonable to you?
Yury

I logged into My Oracle Support. There's Oracle VM product family, and you can get a complete list of patches for Oracle VM and by release numbers.
