Oracle warehouse builder - OWB & Oracle 10g Db on SuSE

hi folks,
i have Oracle 10g db on my laptop; and it runs great!
but since i am trying to gain skills in data warehousing and business inteligence, and after reading about oracle warehouse builder, i decided to install it on my laptop as well.
but i can not get my head around the docs for installing OWB.
is the only requirement for OWB to have an OWB_ORACLE_HOME environment variable on linux? how do we start OWB service automatically?
has anyone installed OWB with oracle on the same pc?
i would appreciate your comments.
thanks in advance,
Nicolas

Thanks Andreas,
i have printed and followed the advice on these documents.
that is how i have got confused about this OWB_ORACLE_HOME.
i would very much appreciate if could provide me with some brief description of which environment variables are needed for OWB installation.
regards,
nicolas

  • Creation data warehouse par l'outil oracle warehouse builder  (OWB)

    Bonjour,
    Dans le cadre de mon PFE je veux construire un data warehouse par l'outil Oracle warehouse builder.
    je cherche des exemples et un tutorial en français pour faire l'ETL d'une base de données de l'ERP JD Edwards.
    SVP, aidez moi et merci.

    Bonjour,
    For examples try:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/warehouse/otn-collateral-086331.html
    If you need them in French try changing the country / language on Oracle site, not sure what's available though as my French is not good enough to let me read documentation in that language.
    Bonne chance

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder VS Oracle Data Integrator

    Hi everybody,
    I have a question that wish you can help me.
    we have systems of x64 so we cant use Oracle Warehouse Builder (only support on system 32 bits), someone recommend us to use Data Integrator but i don't really know this application.
    Anyway ODI 11.1.X.X could it be installed in x64:
    All Oracle Fusion Middleware products that are indicated as certified on x64 processor based Oracle Linux 5.5 or 5 Update 5+, 64 bit operating system, are also supported on Exalogic X2-2.
    What's is the different between OWB and ODI?
    I read about it and see that ODI is powerfull and it apply "Data Quality" better than OWB, is it right?
    Is it possible to exp/imp with metadata loader move metadates between OWB and ODI?

    Hi,
    well, the basic difference is hard to tell. ODI is based on so called knowledge module. This are implementations for physical access to all kind different database technologies (among ohter things). Therefore ODI used to be more flexible extracting data from different database technologies and also writing to them. But with OWB 11.2, these knowledge modules were integrated into owb as so-called template mappings. OWB has a stronger integration with the Oracle database and an Oracle database is always required. Oracle plans to integrate these two tools into one some day, whenever that will be. ODI offers more options for data quality (that are charged extra).
    So technically, the two tools are not that different. They have different user interfaces anyway.
    A big difference is the license. A basic version of OWB is included with the database license, so it can be used without extra charge. Most of our customers are using this version, even for large dwh implementations. If you buy am ETL license (or already have one), you may use both tools.
    Before you decide on one of the tools, make sure you have enough manpower with the required skill available - internal or external.
    Hope this helps,
    Carsten.

  • Welcome to the Oracle Warehouse Builder discussion forum

    Hello!
    Welcome to the Oracle Warehouse Builder discussion forum!
    Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) product management and development will monitor the discussion forum on regular basis.
    Please use this forum for asking product related questions, giving feedback, suggesting enhancements, reporting problems and requesting collateral.

    Bonjour "Etudiant from Tunisia",
    I'm not sure what you mean with "please give me the user/password".
    As far as I know there is no online OWB available where you could try out the product (if that is what you mean).
    If you would like to learn more about OWB, read online documentation or for instance the link that is provided in an earlier post in this thread.
    Otherwise simply install OWB and try it yourself. The Installation and Configuration Guide is clear enough even without much experience installing Oracle software, and the OWB User Guide provides some basic insight on working with OWB itself.
    Good luck, Patrick
    ps If people are still expecting what Igor mentioned when he started this forum ("Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) product management and development will monitor the discussion forum on regular basis"), don't count on it; fortunately the product itself has been around long enough now, there are quite some users that can share usable insights and/or drop some useful lines on the new threads... ;-)

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder 10g installation issues

    Hi All,
    I have downloaded the OWB 10g, from the site. I have Oracle 10g (Release 2) database server installed on the machine.
    When I start installing Oracle Warehouse Builder 10g, it just does the client installation and I am not able to find out were should I search for the OWB server installation?
    Even I have checked by installing the same but I just have Repository Assistant , Design Center and Repository Browser available on the machine. I could not find the Runtime Assistant & Control Center to work on?
    Can somebody help me out with these issues?
    Thanks in advance.
    Regards,
    Anand

    Hi...
    There is an explanations..from the FAQ itself :
    How do I download and install Warehouse Builder Client versus Warehouse Builder Server?
    Warehouse Builder is a single install image that contains both Client and Server components, which are installed at the same time as part of the installation process. If the deployment target database is on the same machine as Warehouse Builder Client UI, there is one single installation process. If the deployment target database is on a separate machine, the install process has to be run twice, repeating the exact same install process on the client machine (to run the Warehouse Builder Design client) and the deployment target machine. Normally when installing the repository, either locally or remotely, the OWB software needs to be already present on the machine. However, it is possible to skip or defer the step of installing on the target deployment machine. This is referred to as a “Remote Target Configuration”. More information on this can be found in the Installation Guide, Chapter 2, “Remote Target”.
    hope this helps...

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder 10.1.0.4 on Windows 2008 - 64 bits

    Hi Gurus.
    I'm currently working with a customer who wants to migrate all their database-servers to Windows 2008 on 64-bits processors. They're using Oracle Database Enterprise Edition 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) and Oracle Warehouse Builder (10.1.0.4). The OWB-clients will still run on Windows XP. I've used the "Certify"-funcionality on Metalink, but it doesn't really answer my questions. (It does* ansver some of my questions, but it also raises a few new ones....)
    My main question is: Can you run serverside OWB 10.1.0.4 on Enterprise Edition 10.2.0.4 for Windows 2008 64-bits?
    Thanks in advance:-)
    Best regards

    No.
    Oracle Warehouse Builder version 10.1.x was desupported on 16-JUL-2007.
    The desupport notice is available on Metalink (Note 376384.1).
    The Warehouse Builder installation as part of the 11.1.0.7 installation should be certified, but I cannot find specifics.

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder

    Dear buddies,
    I need to migrate my tables and data from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 10g.
    My boss's requirement is I must be able to redo it at any point of time. Meaning, I should be able to use the script at any point to recreate the tables and reload them independently without using SQL Server or the existing configurations.
    Does OracleWarehouse Builder provide such scripts after the migration or in the process of migration, which can be reused independently?
    There are about 7 SQL Server databases and each has around 270 tables. Some would be totally new and some would involve merging.
    Please advice me.
    Thanks.

    I tried to Just started like this
    1 - Start - All programs - Oracle Home - Warehouse Builder - Administration - Repository Assitant - Basic Install -
    2 - User Name=rep_user
    password=rep_user

    The remaining disk space for that drive is few gigs and I have created the database with the 16384.
    Please advice on how I should go about this.
    I have been struggling to perform my migration. I really hope someone would be able to guide me through.
    OS: Windows 2003 Enter Edition
    Oracle 10g
    And I am not able to access anything from SQL Plus after I installed Oracle Warehouse Builder.
    So, is the error I am facing something like to do with a bad installation? Do I need to uninstall my OWB or uninstall my oracle and OWB and reinstall them?
    Please guide me.

    Thanks for your reply Igor.
    As posted the OWB 10.1.0 software is running against a 9.2.0.8.0. database, so OWB still uses DBMS_JOB instead of DBMS_SCHEDULER in this database. In addition I already tested scheduling a simple job to run an OS command as suggested in note 365539.1 , and job scheduling is working fine.
    There are no invalid objects in this database.
