Production - Development Import/Export strategy

I'm trying to come up with a good strategy for being able to handle development of an HTMLDB application being carried out on a different system to the production machine.
So far my steps consist of -
1) Dev -> Perform export of HTMLDB application
2) Dev -> Perform Oracle "exp" of schema that the application uses.
3) Prod -> Delete HTMLDB application
4) Prod -> Run script to delete all schema objects for that application.
5) Prod -> Perform Oracle "imp" of file created in step 2
6) Prod -> Perform import of HTMLDB application created in step 1
Does this sound reasonable to people? Is there any other way to do this? Has anyone already written any scripts to do this (that's next on my to-do list).
Thanks

Jes,
I would advice you to avoid using Oracle exp/imp tools in development cycle. Otherwise, you'll end up with a mess on production system when nobody is able to answer what versions of tables/views/packages work and what changes have been made to the particular object recently and why something doesn't work anymore.
Developers have to write sql*plus scripts, form patches and use a version control tool like CVS. I understand this is a bit contrary with htmldb ideology of using browser as single tool. But this way you always know what have been changed, how changed, who changed and when changed.

  • Import/Export Local Development Component

    Hello,
    we developed a Portal service that we want to expose as Webservice.
    According to
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw70/helpdata/EN/43/cb213e578c0262e10000000a11466f/frameset.htm we created a local DC in our NWDS containing our
    Portal Service. We also generated the Webservice.
    We have have SAP NETWEAVER 7.0 (SP10) and no NWDI.
    Now we want to export the whole local DC project from our NWDS to the
    NWDS of a colleague.
    How can we do this? There is no "Local Development Component Export
    option" in our NWDS neither any "Import" possibility.
    Does anyone know something about that?
    Kind regards,
    Torsten Hoffmann

    Hi Torsten,
    1) Close NWDs.
    2) Take project of your colleague, delete .project & . classpath files, copy it in your ../Local Development/ ... folder (you should have the same folder structure as your colleague).
    3) Then edit your .syncdb file and add entry for this project (copy it from the file of your colleague).
    4) Launch NWDS.
    I've made such thing a lots of time and it works for sure.

  • Problem of Data Import/Export after migration of Oracle DB 9i to 10g

    We have encountered the following problem after the migration of Oracle DB 9i to 10g R1 and ESRI ArcSDE 8.3 to 9.1.
    In our development server, a view was created by joining of one feature class (point feature), two attribute tables and one F table. We have to perform a process to export all the features in that particular view from the development server and then import them to the production server. In total, there should be about 60,000 points.
    Form our past experience (using Oracle DB 9i and ESRI ArcSDE 8.3); we spent about 15-20 minutes to complete the import-export procedure. However, after the system migration, the speed of the import-export procedures is extremely slow, which is talking about 2 hours for ONLY EXPORTING 5MB data.
    We would like to seek advice in solving the above problems. THANKS!

    Try to delete old stats, then gather new stats on the schema and try the export again.

  • The VIServer doesn't work when importing/exporting complicated and many input/output VI.

    My VI server and client works fine when I importing and exporting uncomplicated VI. When I import/export many input/output and complicated VI, that complicated VI doesn't give any output. I don't get any error in the error message either (it said "No error"). And my client program looks like it gets hang - I can't stop the program. In this case, I have to shut down the server program then I can stop the client program. Is there any way that we can solve this problem?

    It's difficult to determine the cause of the problem from your description. Here are a few suggestions:
    1. Bundle the inputs to your complicated VI's into a cluster. Do the same with the outputs. You will technically then have only one input and output. This will keep you connector pane a lot cleaner and less confusing.
    2. Have Highlight Execution turned on in your complicated VIs. This will allow you see the portions of your complicated VIs that might be slowing them down.
    3. Run your complicated VI's without VI Server and with a set of input data that allows your VI to run quickly. Then, using VI Server, pass this same input data to your complicated VI's. This will allow you to determine if there is a problem with the way you are calling y
    our complicated VI's.

  • Regarding Workflow 2.6.2 backup/migration/import/export

    hi folks. i m quite amazed that this forum does not provide any answer to the question of taking backup of workflow 2.6.2 or import/export of owf_mgr schema. if one cannot take backup how this oracle workflow is stable. how this product is suitable for any organization. its a very basic requirement. ok its about processes and states.... but, even then i cant get the logic of not taking a backup. sometime we have to move data across servers
    the only answer that i have seen for this is way back jan-09-2003 that its not possible yet. its now 2006 any one who can guide may be i got something or many a things wrong.

    hi folks,
    thanks for reply
    Matt: considering ur statment para what i get for para 1
    Full backup is fine - although there are some objects which are owned by SYS, as long as youare going from one database with WF installed to another one, you should be OK.
    is
    what i understand that u are talking about taking backup of entire database and not of just owf_mgr from export utility. if this is the case then do i really need to have owf_mgr user/schema installed where i have to import that backup
    Secondly for Para 2
    Runtime data is a different thing altogether, although I can't really see why you would want to migrate the runtime data from one DB to another.
    what i get from ur description of Runtime data here, is about the data that represents different process states relavant data which is stored and maintained in different tables. Am I Right?
    if the answer is yes then the answer to ur question (asked in the last line of ur statment) is that i dont want only runtime data to be exported rather i wanna export full user and its schema. and the reason from moving it from one server to another server is simply to have backup for the time of system crash or failiure
    I am keenly anticipating ur reply

  • Custom HTML importer/exporter, how to preserve HTML id, class, style

    I need to implement a custom XHTML importer/exporter and CSSFormatResolver.
    If I for example have a p-element: <p id="p1" class="xyz" style="margin:0.7em; color:#3300FF">lorem ipsum</p>
    How do I map the HTML attributes: id, class and style in order to preserve them in the ParagraphElement in order to use them during the custom CSS cascade process and for custom HTML export purposes (the exporter needs to spit out <p id="p1" class="xyz" style="margin:0.7em;  color:#3300FF">lorem ipsum</p> again.
    1. is this mapping correct or will this interfere with internal TLF formatting:
    HTML attribute
    ParagraphElement property
    id
    id
    class
    styleName
    style
    userStyles
    2. What is the purpose of FlowElement.coreStyles (where are those styles applied)?
    3. What is the actual purpose of FlowElement.userStyles, are those styles just for non TLF (end developer custom) purposes or does TLF use them at any point to set the element format properties?
    4. Any other pointers or related (non flex framwork) examples are welcome
    Thanks.
    Cheers, Benny

    Your mapping looks correct to me for id and styleName.
    I think what you are saying about style mapping to userStyles is correct.  Yes userStyles is an object of key value pairs holding all the non-TLF styles for a FlowElement.  coreStyles holds all the TLF styles for a FlowElement. TLF does use userStyles itself for the linkHoverFormat, linkActiveFormat and linkNormalFormat styles.
    Setting FlowElement.userStyles TLF will replace the current set of userStyles with those in the supplied Object.  That Object will be treated as a dictionary of stylenames and values.
    Normally I'd expect you'd use the FlowElement.setStyle API which figures out if a particular style belongs to coreStyles or userStyles and then sets the new style appropriately without changing the others.

  • Using XML Import/Export in Transport Connection

    Hi, I was investigating the feasibility of copying a query definition from one BW system to another using the XML Import/Export functionality in Transport Connection.  This is not to replace our current transport process across the landscape (Dev -> QA -> Prod), but merely just looking at possibilities for end users who develop queries in QA & then recreate them in Prod.
    My question is: has anyone worked with the XML Export/Import for types Queries & Query Elements?  I was trying this out between a Dev and Sandbox system and only had limited success.  I was able to take a small query and perform the Export to a local .xml file without much difficulty.  But when I try to do the Import, my query never shows up.  The Import function shows a green light, but I get a couple of error messages on the Import such as the following:
    ==========================================================
    SAP object 3WROG4HZ3NKP1PIYHCR1H24CQ () cannot be imported
    Diagnosis
    You attempted to import SAP object 3WROG4HZ3NKP1PIYHCR1H24CQ of type into the system via the XMI interface. However, you are not allowed to import SAP objects.
    System response
    The object was ignored during the import.
    Note: It can be that the import is incomplete when the required SAP objects are still not active in the system.
    Procedure
    Install the specified objects from Business Content. Only import the metadata afterwards.
    =========================================================
    The portion returned for Saving and Activating returns green lights.  The two sample objects mentioned appear to just be custom InfoObjects used in my query & don't look to be any different than others that work OK. 
    Just curious if anyone else has worked with this and could help advise. 
    Thanks...  Jody

    This is an old subject, but I think XML import only works for datamodeling objects like InfoObjects, InfoCubes, and ODS objects. If you try to export a query, and open the XML file in a text editor, there is not enough information (in my opinion) to build the query. As an example you don't see how key figures are to be displayed, filter or free characteristics.
    However, when an InfoObject is collected, you get all the attributes, texts in all languages.
    If anyone has more insight, please enlighten us.

  • Import/Export wizard auto-generates all columns as DATE

    Hi
    I'm trying to use the Import/Export Wizard as I used to, as a handy tool to figure out what a series of T-SQL statements (in an SSIS package) is doing - or, if I'm lucky, what on earth the original dev
    intended them to do.
    Version: SQL 2014 64-bit running on Win 7 64-bit
    The code is pretty dreadful:
    SELECT DISTINCT on one set of column names,
    join this set to another table but not on exactly the same set of column names,
    embedded (SELECT MAX(bla) FROM SameTable WHERE [match to outer set on another set of columns] GROUP BY [hey, yet another set of columns!]) inside the SELECT column list...
    and it all goes to a nasty #Tmp, which is then abused with further bad code further down.
    Imp/Exp is always handy to quickly get the intermediate results into an auto-created real table, so I can figure out exactly what the effect of this is.  I use it to export from the database back to the same database, but to a persisted table.
    This time (first time with SQL2014) it's not working.  The source is "write a query" (paste the actual query).  The destination I set to a new table.  The auto-generation of the new table creates every column as type
    date.  Not surprisingly, this doesn't work, as the original data is mostly not of
    date time.
    Looks like a bug.  Any idea of a workaround or fix?
    thanks!

    Sorry, but I think you're still not getting what I'm saying.
    This is not a production SSIS package design, but a quick'n'nasty diagnosis technique I'm used to using:
    - Find some SQL in an existing query/script that I'm trying to debug
    - Paste it into Import/Export wizard as a source
    - Wizard creates a new table for the result - I then have the results persisted for examination, comparison with the results from refactored code, etc.
    And I can't even put suitable CAST/CONVERT statements in, because the wizard is mis-identifying the
    input column data types, with no way to change them.   It's somehow thinking that every column in the input (the SQL query) is of type
    date(500), when the columns are obviously not of this type.
