Provisioning Groups into FIM 2010 from oracle database

Greetings,
I am trying to provision security groups from an oracle database where i have a view that contains:
Department_Code
Department_Name
DepParent_Code
The view has a recursive relation between Department_Code and DepParent_Code (1 to many).
The view will lead to a Tree that has departments and sub-departments, i want to provision this data into FIM then to AD as security groups reserving the same hierarchy.
Any help would be appreciated.

I have done something like this myself. Using my approach I would do the following:
Extend the Group and group resource type schema in FIM and the FIM Metaverse respectively, adding a new REFERENCE attribute binding ParentGroup/parentGroup respectively;
Create an Oracle MA for importing DEPARTMENT objects with the anchor attribute Department_Code and with DepParent_Code declared as type REFERENCE;
Create an inbound sync rule to import department objects as GROUP objects, with IAFs as follows:
'DEPT-' + Department_Code => group.displayName
Department_Name => group.description
DepParent_Code => group.parentGroup
... and other IAFs according to the instructions you will find
here;
Either create your FIM groups as static (easy), or dynamic/query based (harder - i.e. you would do this if each Person object had a string binding of Department with values which exactly match the DEPT data you are importing) by using an appropriate MPR/workflow;
Define an outbound sync rule to
synchronise your FIM group objects to AD.
If creating dynamic groups, your new workflow "Set Department Group Filter' can be created by using the Function Evaluator to construct the necessary XML filter value (create a group manually first to determine what this must look like) such that each
group has a matching filter, e.g. the filter for DEPT-ABC would be /Person[Department='ABC']

How to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet

how to I convert data from oracle database into excel sheet.
I need to import columns and there datas from oracle database to microsoft excel sheet.
Please let me know the different ways for doing this.
Thanks.

asktom.oracle.com has an excellent article on writing a PL/SQL procedure that dumps data to an Excel spreadsheet-- search for 'Excel' and it'll come up.
You can also use your favorite connection protocol (ODBC, OLE DB, etc) to connect from Excel to Oracle and pull the data out that way.

ODSI service using function from oracle database

Hi ,
I need to create a ODSI service using function from oracle database.
I am not sure how to create a Physical Layer and Logical Layer using the function fron db.
Kindly provide a sample . I need It ASAP. Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Tara

Here's what you do.
Create New Physical Data Service -> Relational -> MyDataSource -> Table -> SomeTable ... finish the wizard.
So now you have a Physical Data Service that represents a database table.
Create New Physcial Data Service -> Relational -> MyDataSource (the same one as above) -> Database Function -> Enter UPPER for the Function name, enter MyUpper fro the XQuery Function. Finish the Wizard (use something like MyUpperDs for the ds name).
Open MyUpperDs. Right-click -> Edit Signature on MyUpper. Change the ReturnType to string, change the Occurrence to Zero or One.
Add a parameter, change the Type to string, change the Occurrence to Zero or One.
Save.
Now, open the first ds you made SomeTable.ds (whatever). Run it in the test view.
Go to the Overview tab. Create New Operation. Give it the name SOMETABLE_UPPER. Save it.
Go to the Query Map tab, open SOMETABLE_UPPER. Drag and drop SOMETABLE (the system-generated function into the mapper. It will show a dotted line from SOMETABLE to the Return. Now drag-and-drop the SOMETABLE to the top-level element of the return type, it will show solid lines from each element in SOMETABLE to each element in the return type.
Now, drag-and-drop MyUpperDs.MyUpper into the Query Mapper. Edit the source, find where it added the line "for $x in myd:MyUpper()" and delete that line.
Change a line that simply returns a value to use your function, for example, change
<FIRST_NAME>{fn:data($CUSTOMER/FIRST_NAME)}</FIRST_NAME>
to
<FIRST_NAME>{myd:MyUpper(fn:data($CUSTOMER/FIRST_NAME))}</FIRST_NAME>
Click on the Plan tab and Show Query Plan. You will see that in the query plan, it is using the database UPPER function where you specified MyUpper.
Go to the Test View and run it.

Passing Array of java objects to and from oracle database-Complete Example

Hi all ,
I am posting a working example of Passing Array of java objects to and from oracle database . I have struggled a lot to get it working and since finally its working , postinmg it here so that it coudl be helpful to the rest of the folks.
First thinsg first
i) Create a Java Value Object which you want to pass .
create or replace and compile java source named Person as
import java.sql.*;
import java.io.*;
public class Person implements SQLData
private String sql_type = "PERSON_T";
public int person_id;
public String person_name;
public Person () {}
public String getSQLTypeName() throws SQLException { return sql_type; }
public void readSQL(SQLInput stream, String typeName) throws SQLException
sql_type = typeName;
person_id = stream.readInt();
person_name = stream.readString();
public void writeSQL(SQLOutput stream) throws SQLException
stream.writeInt (person_id);
stream.writeString (person_name);
ii) Once you created a Java class compile this class in sql plus. Just Copy paste and run it in SQL .
you should see a message called "Java created."
iii) Now create your object Types
CREATE TYPE person_t AS OBJECT
EXTERNAL NAME 'Person' LANGUAGE JAVA
USING SQLData (
person_id NUMBER(9) EXTERNAL NAME 'person_id',
person_name VARCHAR2(30) EXTERNAL NAME 'person_name'
iv) Now create a table of Objects
CREATE TYPE person_tab IS TABLE OF person_t;
v) Now create your procedure . Ensure that you create dummy table called "person_test" for loggiing values.
create or replace
procedure give_me_an_array( p_array in person_tab,p_arrayout out person_tab)
as
l_person_id Number;
l_person_name Varchar2(200);
l_person person_t;
l_p_arrayout person_tab;
errm Varchar2(2000);
begin
     l_p_arrayout := person_tab();
for i in 1 .. p_array.count
loop
     l_p_arrayout.extend;
     insert into person_test values(p_array(i).person_id, 'in Record '||p_array(i).person_name);
     l_person_id := p_array(i).person_id;
     l_person_name := p_array(i).person_name;
     l_person := person_t(null,null);
     l_person.person_id := l_person_id + 5;
     l_person.person_name := 'Out Record ' ||l_person_name ;
     l_p_arrayout(i) := l_person;
end loop;
p_arrayout := l_p_arrayout;
     l_person_id := p_arrayout.count;
for i in 1 .. p_arrayout.count
loop
insert into person_test values(l_person_id, p_arrayout(i).person_name);
end loop;
commit;
EXCEPTION WHEN OTHERS THEN
     errm := SQLERRM;
     insert into person_test values(-1, errm);
     commit;
end;
vi) Now finally create your java class which will invoke the pl/sql procedure and get the updated value array and then display it on your screen>Alternatively you can also check the "person_test" tbale
import java.util.Date;
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import oracle.sql.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
import java.text.DateFormat;
import java.text.ParseException;
import java.text.SimpleDateFormat;
public class ArrayDemo
public static void passArray() throws SQLException
Connection conn = getConnection();
ArrayDemo a = new ArrayDemo();
Person pn1 = new Person();
pn1.person_id = 1;
pn1.person_name = "SunilKumar";
Person pn2 = new Person();
pn2.person_id = 2;
pn2.person_name = "Superb";
Person pn3 = new Person();
pn3.person_id = 31;
pn3.person_name = "Outstanding";
Person[] P_arr = {pn1, pn2, pn3};
Person[] P_arr_out = new Person[3];
ArrayDescriptor descriptor =
ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor( "PERSON_TAB", conn );
ARRAY array_to_pass =
new ARRAY( descriptor, conn, P_arr);
OracleCallableStatement ps =
(OracleCallableStatement )conn.prepareCall
( "begin give_me_an_array(?,?); end;" );
ps.setARRAY( 1, array_to_pass );
     ps.registerOutParameter( 2, OracleTypes.ARRAY,"PERSON_TAB" );
     ps.execute();
     oracle.sql.ARRAY returnArray = (oracle.sql.ARRAY)ps.getArray(2);
Object[] personDetails = (Object[]) returnArray.getArray();
Person person_record = new Person();
for (int i = 0; i < personDetails.length; i++) {
          person_record = (Person)personDetails;
          System.out.println( "row " + i + " = '" + person_record.person_name +"'" );
                    public static void main (String args[]){
     try
                         ArrayDemo tfc = new ArrayDemo();
                         tfc.passArray();
     catch(Exception e) {
                    e.printStackTrace();
          public static Connection getConnection() {
     try
                         Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
                         return DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@<<HostNanem>>:1523:VIS",
                         "username", "password");
     catch(Exception SQLe) {
                    System.out.println("IN EXCEPTION BLOCK ");
                    return null;
and thats it. you are done.
Hope it atleast helps people to get started. Comments are appreciated. I can be reached at ([email protected]) or [email protected]
Thanks

Hi Sunil,
I've a similar situation where I'm trying to insert Java objects in db using bulk insert. My issue is with performance for which I've created a new thread.
http://forum.java.sun.com/thread.jspa?threadID=5270260&tstart=30
I ran into your code and looked into it. You've used the Person object array and directly passing it to the oracle.sql.ARRAY constructor. Just curios if this works, cos my understanding is that you need to create a oracle.sql.STRUCT out of ur java object collection and pass it to the ARRAY constructor. I tried ur way but got this runtime exception.
java.sql.SQLException: Fail to convert to internal representation: JavaBulkInsertNew$Option@10bbf9e
                    at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
                    at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:146)
                    at oracle.jdbc.oracore.OracleTypeADT.toDatum(OracleTypeADT.java:239)
                    at oracle.jdbc.oracore.OracleTypeADT.toDatumArray(OracleTypeADT.java:274)
                    at oracle.jdbc.oracore.OracleTypeUPT.toDatumArray(OracleTypeUPT.java:115)

                    at oracle.sql.ARRAY.<init>(ARRAY.java:152)
                    at JavaBulkInsertNew.main(JavaBulkInsertNew.java:76)
Here's a code snippet I used :
Object optionVal[] =   {optionArr[0]};   // optionArr[0] is an Option object which has three properties
oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor empArrayDescriptor = oracle.sql.ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("TT_EMP_TEST",conn);
ARRAY empArray = new ARRAY(empArrayDescriptor,conn,optionVal);If you visit my thread, u'll see that I'm using STRUCT and then pass it to the ARRAY constructor, which works well, except for the performance issue.
I'll appreciate if you can provide some information.

Can data be fetched from Oracle Database to ApEx websheets?

Hi,
Oracle 11g R2
ApEx 4.2.2
We are in need of giving an MRU form for the customized data by the users. The number of columns will be defined dynamically by the end user. We thought of using apex's standard tabular forms, but they cannot have dynamic columns. We also thought of having manual tabular forms using apex collections, but there is a limitation that the collection can have maximum of 50 character datatypes, 5 numeric, 5 date and 1 each for clob and blob. The number of columns at runtime may exceed these numbers. so we ruled out this. We then thought of using apex websheets. We know that the data can be fetched from Oracle database to websheet reports, but the reports cannot be edited. We know that the data grid gives option to edit the data, but I couldnt find a way to fetch the data from database to it. I understand that the data in the apex websheets can be queried from apex's meta tables apex$_ws_... views and somehow in a back door way of doing these can be updated to the business tables. But we also need to fetch the data from Oracle database to the grid. I do not want to insert into the apex$_ws tables as Oracle does not support it. Is there any other possibility?
Thanks in advance.

Natarajan

Thanks for your reply. Actually it is a data that is fully customized by the end user. These custom attributes are really stored as rows and a complex code returns them as columns at run time. So the number of columns is different user to user based on the number of rows they have.
They'd never have got that far if I'd been around...
They now want to edit them in a tabular form as well.
Well once you've implemented one really bad idea, one more isn't going to make much difference.
It rather sounds like you've got people who know nothing about relational databases or user interfaces responsible for the design of both. You need to be very, very, worried.

Sending a mail from oracle database

Hi,
I have a requirement to send a mail from oracle database.I use UTL_TCP package for this.Although my procedure is executed successfully,i dont get the mails in my inbox.Please help me to figure out a solution.
Thanks in advance....

Hi, you must use UTL_SMTP package for send emails, it has more performance and features for debug. You must look the next code, this is a example for send emails.
DECLARE
c UTL_SMTP.CONNECTION;
PROCEDURE send_header(name IN VARCHAR2, header IN VARCHAR2) AS
BEGIN
UTL_SMTP.WRITE_DATA(c, name || ': ' || header || UTL_TCP.CRLF);
END;
BEGIN
c := UTL_SMTP.OPEN_CONNECTION('smtp-server.acme.com');
UTL_SMTP.HELO(c, 'foo.com');
UTL_SMTP.MAIL(c, '[email protected]');
UTL_SMTP.RCPT(c, '[email protected]');
UTL_SMTP.OPEN_DATA(c);
send_header('From', '"Sender" <[email protected]>');
send_header('To', '"Recipient" <[email protected]>');
send_header('Subject', 'Hello');
UTL_SMTP.WRITE_DATA(c, UTL_TCP.CRLF || 'Hello, world!');
UTL_SMTP.CLOSE_DATA(c);
UTL_SMTP.QUIT(c);
EXCEPTION
WHEN utl_smtp.transient_error OR utl_smtp.permanent_error THEN
BEGIN
UTL_SMTP.QUIT(c);
EXCEPTION
WHEN UTL_SMTP.TRANSIENT_ERROR OR UTL_SMTP.PERMANENT_ERROR THEN
NULL; -- When the SMTP server is down or unavailable, we don't have
-- a connection to the server. The QUIT call will raise an
-- exception that we can ignore.
END;
raise_application_error(-20000,
'Failed to send mail due to the following error: ' || sqlerrm);
END;
Also review the next link for get more information about the UTL_SMTP packege.

Edited by: user3523292 on Nov 14, 2008 5:43 AMThis is a forum of volunteers. There is no "urgent" here. Nevertheless, a google search of 'xml oracle export' quickly lead me to this Oracle site:
otn.oracle.com/sample_code/tech/xml/index.html
I also see lots of hits when I search the documentation library at tahiti.oracle.com for 'xml'. This one in particular may be what you are looking for:

How to access data in AS 400 from Oracle database

Hi
Could you please help me on accessing data in AS 400 from Oracle database? what are the main things to do? Any private documentation or any oracle metalink note please...

Hi
Please find the details given below....Any body can help me on this please....
Issue Description: The stock status report to be developed at SATN has some information that is currently calculated and stored in the Fox/pro system. A real time ODBC needs to be done to the AS/400 system to retrieve values for the respective fields. This has never been tested before as it impacts many areas.
The DBA team need to work to establish such a relationship and a report needs to be written in Oracle to have this tested on a real time basis. Mapping needs to be developed on the Oracle side to grab the correct fields
