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!!!!

Could anyone tell me where i went wrong....
Thank you...

Hi
OMBCC is only for folder objects (such ad projects and modules), mappings are not folders. If you want to get mapping details you can use OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING command.
For example;
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'M_API' GET TABLE OPERATORS
See doc for more details;

Automation using OWB OMB Plus Scipt

Hi Everyone,
I am trying to automate the configuration of Maps using OMB Script. However the below TCL script runs however I am trying to add some more Validation like while it should trim spaces while accepting the map names, i should be able to match the test like it was possible using substr() trim(), concatenate any text. I searched everywhere how was unable to do so. Please help.

Thank you Oleg for your reply.
Well this thing did work, however there are some special characters being entered. For example if there are few spaces in my output it will replace it with some special character in my output file in place of that spaces; like it will create a small box like icon.
Now what i am trying to get the output in an .xls or .csv. If you look into the code i am appending everything i require line by line in my output file. So my question is that is it possible to put everything in the same format which is possible in .txt file output.

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}

# set procCount [$oraRs getInt numlines]
# puts "Program unit $procName comprises $procCount lines"
#$oraRs close
#oracleDisconnect $oraConn
{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,
Mike

Oerr facility for OMB Plus errors

oerr facility for OMB scirpting errors
Hello,
is there a facility to troubleshoot errors encountered running OWB scripts ?
My below command failed with MMM1034 error :
OMBCREATE ORACLE_MODULE 'SRAV_MODULE' \
SET PROPERTIES (DESCRIPTION, BUSINESS_PROPERTIES) VALUES \
('Target Module for testing relational objects' , 'Rel_Objects')
MMM1034: Property BUSINESS_PROPERTIES does not exist.
===========
Now, how do I troubleshoot this error? Is there a document with all the errors listing of MMM.
I tried 'oerr MMM 1034' but it complained with "unknown facility" error.
I did not find anything in the OWB scripting doc. What other documents can I refer to learn more about OMB plus scripting ?

Patrick,
thanks for your response.
Yes, that fixed it. Is there any kind of reference book for all error listings and their fixes ? The scripting reference do not mention anything about error messages.
Now, this is my new problem. The 1st script is fine, creates the table with 1 column. When I extend the script to create 2 columns, it complains.
=====
OMBCREATE TABLE 'SRAV_TBL_CHILD' \
SET PROPERTIES (DESCRIPTION) VALUES \
('This table connects to TBL_PARENT') \
ADD COLUMN 'ID1' \
SET PROPERTIES (DATATYPE) VALUES ('NUMBER')
=====
OMBCREATE TABLE 'SRAV_TBL_CHILD' \
SET PROPERTIES (DESCRIPTION) VALUES \
('This table connects to TBL_PARENT') \
ADD COLUMN 'ID1' \
SET PROPERTIES (DATATYPE) VALUES ('NUMBER') \
ADD COLUMN 'COL2' \
SET PROPERTIES (DATATYPE , NOT_NULL, DESCRIPTION) VALUES \
('NUMBER',1,'COL2 is the second col of PK')
======
OMB00001: Encountered <EOF> at line: 1, column: 250. Was expecting one of: "("
What am I missing ? When it says, column 250 - is it the 250th character of the complete script, as it seems there is no 2nd line in the scripting - everything in the sccript is in 1 line. Is there a way we can break the line into many, so debugging becomes easy. Instead of saying Line 1 column 250 - it would be better if it says line 4 column 10.
Please advice.
Thanks
Sravan

OMS Plus script needed to change target table load hint

Greetings
Environment:
Metadata Repository - 10.1.0.4 currently but going to 10.2.0.3 soon running client on Windows XP Pro and repository on AIX 5.3
I need an OMB Plus script to find all the maps where the target table(s) have a Loading Type of either INSERT/UPDATE or UPDATE/INSERT and I want to remove the APPEND loading hint.
I have suffered with attempts at using OMB Plus long enough.
Also, is there a way in either 10.1 or 10.2 to set the default action of that attribute to NOT include the APPEND hint?
Thanks very much in advance.
-gary

Hi Gary,
you can get loading type with command
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'MAP_NAME' OPERATOR 'TABLE_OP' GET PROPERTIES (LOADING_TYPE)
and loading hint with command
OMBRETRIEVE MAPPING 'MAP_NAME' OPERATOR 'TABLE_OP' GET PROPERTIES (LOADING_HINT)
In this thread you can find tcl script for identifying target or source tables/views in mapping
Re: Q : OMBPLUS, find TARGET TABLE

Oleg

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

Inserting sql scripts in OWB 10g using OMB PLUS

Hey burleson, thanks for the reply..
Infact i am new to OWB and my question can be very silly to you.
Infact i have 1 source table in OWB named 'SALGRADE' which contains data and i have 1 target table named 'TARGET_SALGRADE' which has the same structure as the source table.
The script i have run and tested is as such :
INSERT INTO TARGET_SALGRADE
(GRADE,
LOSAL,
HISAL)
SELECT
GRADE,
LOSAL,
HISAL
FROM SCOTT.SALGRADE;
I have tested it in sqlplus and the update has been done.
Can you please tell me how do i proceed in OMB PLUS and how do i write the script there??
Regards,
Amrish

You can run SQL scripts using the SQLPLus activity in a process flow.
But the traditional mechanism to move data in OWB is using mappings. The post below might be interesting if you know SQL to understand how mappings are constructed;

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 ;-)

OWB PRO out there : is it possible SQL to execute OMB*PLUS from Database ?

Hi,
With 11g out : is there any expert who sucessfully integrate pl/sql routine to call OMB. Here's the point : You have an APEX application and you design your stuff and at one point you wish you just have to press a button and generate a first draft of your design in the OWB repository, and then developpers can have a frame to start designing from your perspective.
Also, imagine you have an APEX form to approve the testing of a design or process flow or both, and when you press the i approve button, you get call an OMB*Plus routine that do all the export->import reconcile and deploy thing!
I don't think i'm alone to need this kind of stuff. So since OWB is Java, and Oracle database speek Java : is it possible to think of a quick solution ?
Thank you all.

Hi bpaquet,
As you know OMB+ is TCL extension, and as i know OMB is not integrated into RDBMS.
I think, there can be several solutions.
1. Execute shell scripts from db using dbms_pipe package.
2. Execute shell scripts using some java external procedure.
3. Create some OS scheduled job (crontab), which will check some values in DB and execute OMB scripts.

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).

Igor

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.
PUB04201: Encountered an internal fatal error during processing of oracle module XXX_DMY_DWPROD_TST: unsupported obj type.
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?
