OWB11gr2 Control Centre Agent

Hi,
Can i run a control centre agent(CCA) on a box other than the place where owb11gr2 is installed ?
We have a windows box A having MYSQL database but the database is not global, its local. We cannot connect to MYSQL outside that box.
Currently a batch script runs every night on that box A and dumps the data to csv files which are FTP to the OWB box B which transforms and load the data into target database on box B.
We are migrating to OWB11gr2 and want to know whether we can run a CCA on box A to read data directly from MYSQL and load data into box b target database.
We want to avoid , dumping and ftp of csv files which can save us time.
Is this possible ? If yes , how can it be achieved.
Thanks,
Samurai

Hi
This is the general approach for creating a CCA remotely, I have created a small zip below which should get you up and running quicker. The steps include installing an OC4J install, then applying a small zip with the agent preconfigured on to the installed OC4J image, you have to copy the jrt.ear from an OWB install to this agent install.
1. install OC4J 10g on the remote machine of your choice. Download OC4J 10.1.3.5 from here
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/utilsoft.html
2. Download j2eehomeconfig.zippy (here http://blogs.oracle.com/warehousebuilder/cca/j2eehomeconfig.zippy) and unzip to the newly installed OC4J install directory j2ee/home/config directory overwriting files. By default it has the same port numbers as the default CCA installed by OWB so if you are on the same machine ensure you shut one down, or change numbers. This zip is just a quick start way to get CCA up and running on an OC4J specifically for this purpose.
3. Copy the jrt.ear file from your OWB install to the machine where OC4J was installed and copy to j2ee/home/applications
4. Before starting the OC4J following the readme for OC4J, set the variable OC4J_JVM_ARGS with:
set OC4J_JVM_ARGS=-Dpython.path=%ORACLE_HOME%\j2ee\home\applications\jrt\jython_lib.zip;%ORACLE_HOME%\j2ee\home\applications\jrt\jython_owblib.jar -Dkm_security_needed=true -XX:MaxPermSize=128M
5. Copy the required JDBC driver files into directory j2ee/home/applib. And start/restart OC4J.
Now, start the OC4J container (you will be prompted to create the oc4jadmin user's password), you now have a functioning CCA. You can now create a new Agent in the OWB client with the credentials and deploy/execute etc. There are other capabilities of CCA but this is enough to get off the ground with some basics. A mapping is executed on a single agent, bits of code may run remotely (ie via JDBC). So for you, you can run the code on the MySQL box, and remotely connect to the target where the data is being pushed for example. The data sources used by the mapping will need deployed to that agent along with the mapping and code templates.
Cheers
David

  • Control Centre - doesn't retain settings

    The version of Control Centre (2.5.060) on my mother board (P67a-c43,  bios v1.19, 20120801) doesn't retain settings.  In fact what would appear to be the "apply" button is showing as blank.
    Recently I reverted to an older version of the bios because of other problems.  I seem to remember that when I was using the very latest bios before I reverted to an older one at least the green power settings seemed to be working.
    I notice on other posts that this problem of not being able to "apply" settings or retaining settings seems to be a bug that has never been fixed.
    I wonder, is this still the case.  Is there any solution?

    Thanks for the suggestion.  My bios version shows "auto" and a also atarget cpu temperature.  When I tried it at a target of 60C and ran the cpu flat out the cpu temp was nearly 70c.  So, knowing that the actual is overshooting the target temp, one way forward is to set the target quite a bit lower than than the actual desired temp.
    I think this is simple if inelegant way of solving the problem and I'll probably adopt this mainly because it is so simple.
    But surely to have to do this because Control Centre doesn't work and because the alternative  bios method of temperature control is inaccurate does not do MSI any great credit.

  • Hi,catalyst control centre has stopped working after upgrading to windows 8 .

    Hi,
    i have a hp envy-6 notebook pc(Product number: B4P24PA#ACJ,Serial number:  [Personal Information Removed] , which comes with windows 7 home basic! after upgrading to Windows 8 Pro 64-bit operating system ,my catalyst control centre ,host application has stopped workiing .
    i have tried almost everything i could do but the problem still persists
    on every time restarting pc it displays the above error message.
    regards

    Hi,
    Have you checked in the Device Manager to see if all drivers are installed since upgrading? (look for yellow exclamation points)
    Uninstall the AMD driver and catalyst control center. Install the version  located in the download section of the web support portal for your sleekbook.It will install both driver (intel and AMD) and also switchable graphics capability if it previously existed.
    Best regards,

  • Disappointed with iOS 7 control centre

    I like everyone else was expecting a lot out of iOS 7. Definitely apple lived up with half of my expectation by adding new designs, new icons etc etc. but one thing that really got me disheartened was the control centre. I mean its cool that they added some toggles and shortcuts, but theres so much more that could have been done. Data toggle, 3g toggle, location toggle, hotspot toggle they are essential for almost all of us. Its really tedious to go back to the entire settings procedure every time we need to turn them on or off. These options are already present in other platforms since ages. And apple omitted them despite of having the space and opportunity to add them. And another vital omission was the Facebook and Twitter quick post widget. It was a really helpful part of the iOS 6. & i feel it should have been placed in the control centre. So i hope apple reads my post and takes these things into consideration for future development of iOS.

  • I can't open the control centre with a Griffin Survivor Case on my iPhone 5.

    The title says it all really. The plastic of the case ends really close to the screen and there is an inbuilt screen protector. This means I can't register touch on the bottom edge of the screen, which is apparently where you have to swipe to open the control centre. I have no problems opening the notifications, swiping down from the top.
    Does anyone alse have this problem, which the same or different cases? I know there are similar issues with Otterbox cases too.
    I hope Apple will notice the problem and make a fix soon. It should be simple enough - just move the swipe spot up a little like the one at the top of the screen.

    I have the OtterBox Armor case which has a similar design and thus problem.  After much practice I can now open CC with about 3 or 4 attempts.  Much better than when I started and thought it just couldn't be done.  I really have to start at the exact middle of the bottom of where the screen meets the case.

    I cannot swipe up on my iPad to get to control centre.  I want to mirror to Apple TV.  this is the most frsutrating thing. No wonder Microsift rules

    Is notification center showing up when you swipe down ?
    Check in your settings if control center is checked :
    Settings > control center > check both "lock screen" and "access within apps"
    gently swipe up beginning outside the screen, just a few inches up (you don't need to swipe up to the top of the screen.
    if detected the airplay option will appear in the control center.

  • I can't find airplay in control centre. I only see airdrop. Help.

    When I open control centre I don't see airplay.

    You will only see Airplay if you have a compatible device on the same wireless network.
    Do you have an Apple TV or Airport router?

    Not working for me as well.
    Mortego does option "Restore on AC power loss" works for you? Try to switch off your PSU on back on it and power it after 1-2 seconds. I`m really interested in if only I have this problem as support says or not. In my country my reseller refused to accept RMA because they told me that it`s bios bug and I should wait for updates. It`s frustrating that it restart my PC rather than shutdown it completely.

  • HT204291 Help, I updated last night and have lost the airplay? There is nothing for it in the control centre, any suggestions please.

  • OWB_REMOTE_ADMIN value for remote control centre service?

    We're upgrading from OWB 10.2 to 11gR2, and it's failing with a message saying that the 'owb\UnifiedRepos\remote_owb_install.sql' script needs to be run to set the OWB_REMOTE_HOME to the OWB home on the database server.
    However, as with our version 10 architecture, we don't want to install OWB on the database server, we want to have the Control Centre Service running on a separate application server. OWB11 has been installed on the apps server but when we run remote_owb_install.sql and then try to run OMBSEED the same error is coming up saying to run the script again. I've tried setting the OWB_REMOTE_HOME's value implicitly and explicitly, but neither works.
    Any ideas or pointers gratefully received!

    to add to the above information......
    since I am using my own tablespace and schema as described above .....
    I created a new control center through the design center user interface.......
    for the new control center ...i provided the details of the above new user ...new workspace etc....
    the ran the below ORACLE provided script(show_service script).....

    else
    dbms_output.put_line('Not Available');
    end if;
    end;
    output is 'AVAILABLE'
    but when I deploy my first mapping ..... I get the below error message
    Error
    RPE-01012: Cannot deploy PL/SQL maps to this target schema.
    The target schema must be in the same instance as the Control Center and have the OWB_USER role granted

  • Can you use portrait orientation lock without the control centre on ios7

    With regards to the question above does anyone know another way to lock the screen orientation without the use of the control centre (e.g. like the old way of double clicking the home button). The reason being is that I have a case that fits the screen perfectly so my fingers cannot get to the bottom of the screen to access the control centre. Many thanks in advance

    According to page 23 of the user manual http://support.apple.com/manuals/ the only way to change the orientation is with the control enter

  • Control Centre and DAS

    Hello,
    I have my SAP installed and running fine. In Control Centre I try to add "New System" and try to "Discover". Its failing saying "CCA1003I  No DB2 system was found on the network."
    I thought this is because DAS is not Present. I try to create it using
    C:\Users\db2sep> db2admin create
    SQL1042C  An unexpected system error occurred.
    Can you please help here... I want to add the System using Discover, otherwise we face a lot of errors if we do it manualy.
    Thanks,

    Hi,
    to ensure their is no DAS already, try running command
    db2admin start
    what is the result?
    The SQL error does not give us much information, are there any errors logged in the db2diag from the time of this command?
    If not, try tracing as follows:
    1. db2diag -A                                                           
    2. db2trc on -f trace.dmp                                               
    3. db2admin create  <<< this command will fail with SQL1042C I presume 
    4. db2trc off                                                           
    5. db2trc flw trace.dmp trace.flw                                       
    6. db2trc fmt trace.dmp trace.fmt
