Oracle10g with Workspace Manager

Has anyone used Workspace Manager in 10g? I'm trying to draw the line between workspaces and version tables. Can someone please shed some light on this.
Thanks,
Bobby

TopLink does not have a formal integration with Workspace manager but I have worked with at least one customer using them together. For basic version usage you need to ensure you force the same connection to be used and execute the appropriate stored procedures.
I do see an opportunity for a more seamless integration to allow TopLink to automatically invoke the stored procs and to facilitate conflict resolution.
Can you describe how you want to use workspace manager and maybe we can work out an example that meets your needs.

Hi all,
as the subject heading specified, is it possible to use Toplink with Workspace Manager ?
thank you for any response

Workspace Manager and tabular forms

Does anyone know whether it is possible to use Workspace Manager with tabular forms using APEX's multi row processes?
I tried creating a process that runs before the multi-row processes that uses gotoWorkspace() to switch to a different workspace and another process afterwards that switches back to the LIVE workspace. However, the changes go into the LIVE workspace rather than the desired workspace.
Rodney

Turns out my application did indeed need to be debugged. I had an explicit condition written to limit the process to certain buttons, but I also managed to add an unintended constraint that the process only run when the Add button was used. The result was that the process ran, creating a workspace, when one added a row, but didn't switch back to that workspace when one saved the new row.
Sorry for the false alarm.
At least I can confirm for anyone considering this option that APEX does work with Workspace Manager as long as you can enable the versioning on the tables through another means.

Workspace manager vs. shadow tables

Hi,
I have the requirement to track any changes (insert/update/delete) on db tables.
At the end the user should be able to view the change history of records in the GUI.
The two possible methods are (in my opinion):
a) workspace manger
b) manage shadow tables manually (with triggers)
Has anyone experience with workspace manager for this use case?
What are the pros and contras of the two methods?
Database is 10gR2

Peter

We are using OWB to create OLAP because you have your metadata properly defined in the design repository of OWB from where you can deploy to different databases and schemas. We are also using OWB to create tables and other relational objects instead of using SQL Developer or Toad to do so.
Nevertheless there are some restrictions when using OWB: You cannot create programs with OWB (e.g. for limiting access to certain objects), not all aggregation operators are supported (e.g. the weighted aggregation operators like WSUM are not supported by OWB), you cannot create models, ...
If you come to these restrictions you could write "after-deployment scripts", i.e. you deploy your dimensions and cubes from OWB and let the scripts do what you could not model with OWB.
Hope this helps!

Workspace manager and Streams

I wanted to know if workspace manager support streams.
If it supports, can Advanced replication and workspace manager co-exist in a database?
We currently have advanced replication between 2 database with workspace manager installed. The tables are version enabled and replicated. We are adding a new database that is going to use Streams for data movement instead of advanced replication. I would like to know if they can co-exist?
Thanks.

Hi,
There are a number of different modes in collecting data when using Streams. If the LCR records are being created using the redo log, then you would need to specify the LT table when adding support. Otherwise, if a custom application was creating its own LCRs (for example, via triggers) it would not have to use the LT table, but could create the records based on the column values in the trigger.
Also, I should note that it would not really be feasible to replicate the versioned tables completely using streams on top of Workspace Manager. The types of operations that I was referring to that could be performed would be moving data into a non-versioned table. For example, creating a rule so that only specified rows or a particular workspace are streamed into a table at a different database. The metadata would also need to be removed from the record, which would only be useful in a versioned environment. Aside, from these types of activities, advanced replication would need to be used.

Ben

Upgrading from 9.0.1.3 to 11.2.0.4 with Oracle Workspace Manager

Our client has a (very old) 9.0.1.3 database on Windows 2000
This database (and other products – but that’s not the main concern right now) needs to be upgraded to 11.2.0.4 in Windows2008R2 (64 bit).
A complicating factor might be the use of Oracle Workspace Manager – a lot of tables are Workspace Managed.
We can do it the long way, by upgrading it via 9.1.0.4, 10.2.0.1, 10.2.0.4 -> Export and then, on the new environment, import on 10.2.0.4 en subsequently upgrade it to 10.2.0.5 and then 11.2 (and maybe some more patching afterwards).
But that takes way too long (downtime).
So would it be possible to do it the “easy way”:
Full Database Export of 9.0.1.3, import it into a brand new empty 11.2.0.4 and then upgrade Workspace Manager to 11.2 as well?
Or should we upgrade OWM to 11.2 in the old environment - and is that possible at all?
(FYI: Snippet from the OWM manuals : Workspace Manager supports the import and export of version-enabled tables in one of the following two ways: a full database import and export, and a workspace-level import and export through Workspace Manager procedures. No other export modes, such as schema, table, or partition level, are currently supported).
(On purpose cross-posted in the "Workspace Manager" Forum : Upgrading from 9.0.1.3 to 11.2.0.4 with Oracle Workspace Manager

The database is not that big (in fact there are two, both around 130Gb).
Affordable downtime is one weekend. The long way (with all patching and upgrading) takes around 100 hours...
We did raise an SR, but the answer was ... take the long way home ;-)
(But, FYI, I didn't raise the SR, so I don't know what question has been asked... If the original question was "how to upgrade", you get the official statement. If you don't ask for other options, you don't get them - so I ask it here...)
And I've seen that presentation... Thanks anyway.

Does Analytic Workspace Manager 11.2.0.3.0A work with oracle database 12c?

hello,
i would like to know if AWM 11.2.0.3.0A works against with oracle database 12c in pdb mode or not .
regards
jm

I have attempted to connect 11g versions of AWM to 12c and get this error:
'This version of Analytic Workspace Manager is incompatible with the database instance. The Analytic Workspace Manager version is 11.2.0.3.0 and the database compatible version is 12.1.0.0.0'
So unfortunately it is not compatible, and there is currently no AWM for 12c
I also contacted Oracle support and they wont give me any information about a release date or any information on the xml template specification for 12c.
I guess we will just have to wait till they release a version of AWM that supports 12c...

Problem with Oracle Analytic Workspace Manager ver 10.1.0.4

Hi,
I am running Oracle Analytic Workspace Manager ver 10.1.0.4. When I tried getting connected to Analytical workspace I get the following error. Any help could be appreciated.

There are posts on the OLAP forum covering this problem. Anthony Waite from the OLAP Product Management team has provided the following information:
e new, default Model View in AWM 10.1.0.4.0 is based upon the OLAP Analytic Workspace API (a.k.a. AW/XML). Just to recap and further clarify my earlier post, you must pass the following requirements in order to use it:
1) Be sure to be using the Enterprise Edition of the Oracle Database 10g.
SQL> select banner from v$version where banner like 'Oracle%';
You should see Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition.
2) Be sure to have the Data Warehouse database configuration or the OLAP Option enabled.
SQL> select parameter, value from v$option where parameter='OLAP';
You should see OLAP TRUE.
3) Be sure that the RDBMS 10.1.0.4 patch set has been completely installed. Users often miss the required Post-Installation Steps such as running catpatch.sql.
SQL> select comp_name, version, status from dba_registry;
You should see VALID and 10.1.0.4.0 for the OLAP components.
4) The Oracle Database must have the compatibility mode of 10.1 to use the Model View as it relies on the unique features found in Oracle Database 10g.
SQL> select name, value, description from v$parameter where name ='compatible';
You should see 10.1, not 9.2 or earlier.
5) Please refer to the patchnote.htm that is bundled with 10.1.0.4.0 patch set. Only you are aware of what type of database configuration you have. You will want to pay close attention to "7.2.1.3 Set the SHARED_POOL_SIZE and JAVA_POOL_SIZE Initialization Parameters" and "7.2.2 Upgrade the Release 10.1 Database".
Basically, I believe you have missed these required steps after installing the 10.1.0.4.0 patch set from the OUI: (pasted from the patchnote.htm)

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

How to install analytic workspace manager?

I have Oracle 9.2.0.1 running on Windows. I have installed 9.2.0.3 database patch. I couldn’t see analytic workspace manager tool? How to get the tool?
I will greatly appreciate if you can guide me with some links or steps.

Few days back I went to a Oracle Demo and there I used Analytic Workspace Manager, which is running on Windows 2000 (both database and the tool on same machine).
It was located in
Start menu --> Oracle home --> Integrated Management Tolls Folder.
I couldn't see that on my 9.2.0.1 installation. So I installed the new patch 9.2.0.3, still I am not able to see that tool.
Am I missing anything? Any other patch?

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.
