Relational/physical model missing

Hi,
Yesterday engineered and saved relational/physical models appear missing today. I'm using new version 3.3.0.747. Yesterday I luckily already generated ddl -scripts and run it in database so now i can import tables etc from there.
I checked the xml -files and there it is (including everything-> tables, tablespaces, etc. etc), but the Data Modeler Design Browser can't find it at all.
Kind regards, user12957891

I was about to post something similar. The entities I created in the last week or so aren't on the logical view (the visible one) anymore. (The 50 or so older than that are, and they're in the relational view.) They're in the browser's list of entities, and some of them are where they're supposed to be on a subview. But if I do right-click on one of them in the browser list, do "Go to Diagram->Logical", nothing happens. If I drag one from the browser list to the view, it shows as "Whatever:1", as if it was already there somewhere.
In my case, it's possible there was versioning involved. I was going to check in new changes but couldn't because of conflicts. One was for "logical view". I accepted for merging some changes, and I remember seeing some "to delete" ones for these newish entities, but the checkbox wasn't checked for those and I didn't check them. I'm not sure if these entities were on the visible view before I merged in the pending changes today. My partner's model seems to be the same as mine at this point (newish entities in the browser list but not in the big white view), so I'm not sure what happened or how to get them to appear again.

Export logical model open all relational and physical model? -- Problem

Hello,
If I export only logical model ( file --> export --> To design Data Modeler) . Oracle Data Modeler open all relational and physical model, if I have 100 relational model open all, and this is very resource.
Can it be avoided?
Thanks.

Ok, thanks
This bug Will solved for version final Data Modeler 4.1 ?

Table properties doesn't propagate from Relational Model to physical model

Hi all,
I have a relationnal model with several tables and several schema.
When i create a new table in the relational model with a specified schema, the table is created on the physicla model, but the schema is not prapagate.
Is there a way to do this automatically ?
Or do i have to specify the schema on the relationnal and on the physical.
Thank you

Hi,
schema object in relational model needs to be implemented in physical model - user is the implementation of schema in Oracle physical model. User has property "implements schema". You also can omit this redirection and can assign directly user to table but in this case you'll lose the flexibility.
Here is how DDL is impacted using different option (schema_1 and table_1 in relational model):
1) physical model is not open - no implementation details
CREATE TABLE Schema_1.TABLE_1
     Column_1 NUMBER
;2) physical model is open - Schema_1 is not implemented
CREATE TABLE TABLE_1
     Column_1 NUMBER
    ) LOGGING
;3) physical model is open - Schema_1 is implemented by User1
CREATE TABLE User1.TABLE_1
     Column_1 NUMBER
    ) LOGGING
;4) physical model is open - Schema_1 is implemented by User1; Table_1 is directly assigned to User2 in physical model
CREATE TABLE User2.TABLE_1
     Column_1 NUMBER
    ) LOGGING

Data modeler, physical model related view

Hi community,
is there a way to create a physical model related view in the data modeler or a better idea?
The reason is simple, let me say, I have a view with string concatenation and want use this view in oracle and sql server, the syntax is different.
In Oracle it is " column1 || ' ' || column2". The same thing in sql is "column1 + ' ' + column2"
Regards, Henrik

Hi Kent,
thank you for the answer, but it is not really a solution for me to copy the complete relational model to a second one! It is unfavorable for later changes on the model. You must do them all changes on both models.
Currently I have one relational model together with four physical models, Oracle 10, Oracle 11, Oracle 12 and MS Sql. If I work with stored functions, procedures, packages, triggers and so one, it is possible to change the content of these objects in the physical model, depending of the sql language and the database version features.
Only tables and views are not changeable and I’m not able to add a table or view to the physical model.
Other suggestions?
Regards, Henrik

Data Modeler bug? - it keeps reporting missing physical model files

Hi,
I'm having a rather serious problem with the latest data modeler, Oracle SQL Developer Data Modeler 3.1.4.710. It keeps losing physical model files for some reason.
I started to notice that it was not generating all the tables in my small design. After hours of struggle I found multiple error messages in the log file:
2012-12-18 10:51:20,126 [Thread-71] ERROR XMLTransformationManager - Unable to load object from XML: C:\cygwin\home\Brian\codebase\models\data\Design\rel\395D160B-C7224B8EAD05\phys\D9582E4E-2ED963CB9D32\View\seg_0\A555DB9B-8864-9C0B-DCA8-BAC5231F55C6.xml

These messages appeared every time I opened my physical model (Oracle 10g).
After deleting and recreating the physical model the problem went away for a while. But after closing and reopening the design I started to see the errors again.
Has anyone seen something similar?
Regards,
Brian

Thanks Philip!
The workaround does the trick for the tables, primary keys and unique keys.
I have just observed that table level constraints show a slightly different behaviour.
Names show up like TCC5, TCC6, etc.
Seems the same problem as previously in SQL*Modeler forgets check constraint names
Is there a workaround for that problem too ?
I already noticed that there is no parameter NameChanged for a table constraint.

Data modeling tool: physical model migration

Hi,
I have imported my relational model with a generated physical model for oracle 9i.
I'd like to migrate my DB to oracle 10g, but I don't feel like creating a new physical model for Oracle 10g from the scratch and configuring it all.
Is there any way to copy that oracle 9i physical model into an oracle 10g model? I know there could be any implementation change from 9i to 10g, but at least copy the main 99% (and warn about the 1% impossible to replicate in 10g).
Could this feature be taken into the production version?
By the way, is this a BUG? when I start the tool, my oracle 9i physical model is not shown in the tree, and I've to right-click over physical model, press open, and then select oracle 9i, to be shown in the tree. But I close the data modeling tool, and when I start again, there is no physical model shown in the tree :(
thanks a lot in advance, I'm evaluating the tool.

Thank you very much for your reply, and hearing those news makes me very happy, because I'm evaluating the product and I miss some functionality like that.
By the way, where can I find the new functionality or the fixed one that is going to be on the production release? Or could yo send it to me by email or any other way? I'm very interested in it.

Compare Physical model

I am a new user here...
I just created my first model in SQL Developer data modeler .... I have been happy so far....
Question is: is there a way to compare physical model changes to Dataabase schema and generage DDL STMT?
Scenario: I created a relational schema and physical model in data modeler and generaged DDL script which I ran in to new schema... and created a working environment... for the applcation.
Now i made some Foreign key to initially defferred and saved data model. But when I compare this updated foreign key (physical model changes) changes to DB.... it doesn't show it being changed.
I just want to know if I am missing anything here.
Thank you in advance and please let me know if I need to provide any further information.
Data modeler version: 3.1.1.703 ( just got new version to see if this one fixes my problem... but still not help)
-R

Thank you Philip for clarifying the functionality.
Just wondering, is there a plan to support this functionality in near future?
I am sure there are many users like me who created their data model using Data modeler and configured initial physical model properties..... and successfully created their database .... and also want to use this too to configure further chagnes in data model and have them merged with DB.....
Thank you

How to implement more than one physical models from the same model

Hello,
We have designed a relational model for our application and now, we would like to implement it for our 4 environments: Development, Test, User-Test and Real. Each one has the same logical schema but, different physical clauses (i.e.: in development environment we will not use partitioning clauses).
Is this possible?
Thank you,
Bernat Fabregat

Hello Bernat,
yes it's possible:
1) open your design and go to Tools>"RDBMS site administration"
2) add your sites there (Current design) - Development, Test, User-Test and Real; press ok when finish
3) go to "Physical models" node in browser and use "new" from pop-up menu - your sites will appear in list
4) after you set physical objects in one model (need to save it as well)l, you can clone those objects in other models - you can clone from lower or the same database version
You can consider usage of "name substitution" functionality during DDL generation if objects should have different name (prefix) in different environment - in this there will be no need to change the name of objects in models.

How convert spaces in logical model to underscores in physical model

Hi,
in Oracle Designer we used spaces in logical model objects (entities, attributes, relations) which were automatically converted to underscores when the physical model was generated from the logical one. Is there any way how do this conversion in Data Modeler? So far I have been able to convert mixed case in logical model to uppercase in physical model (with the exception of foreign keys) but changing space to underscores still eludes me.
Why I think this is important: the logical model should use "normal" language if possible, i.e. spaces, mixed case etc. But the physical model should have uppercase only and definitely no spaces. Having objects in Oracle defined with spaces leads to many difficulties since any reference to the object must use "" around the name of the object...
Thanks
Jakub

Hi,
but the problems continues (even when the model is reduced to no entities at all!)
The error you reported (in engineering and import) cannot be reached if there are no entities and attributes - it's a specific error probably related to usage of distinct types that are removed from design.
You can use search functionality in order to find attributes/columns (logical/relational model) with incorrect data type definition based on distinct type.
And it's better to move to Data Modeler 4.0 (833).
So what to search (example is on logical model - it's the same for relational model - column):
1) Activate search window (CTRL-F when logical diagram is active, or Find icon), switch to advanced mode
2) for "Object type" Attribute:
- check "Data Type kind" line and put DT as search text
- check "Distinct type" line, don't put search text - it'll search for attributes without distinct type
- change the operand for expression from OR to AND
3) press "Find" button
If you find some attributes, then you need to decide what to do with them - to set data type or to delete them.
The same for columns in relational model.

Data Modeler: Relational data model questions

1. Can a different notation be specified for relational data models' constraints? Specifically, I'd like crow's feet. BTW, the docs show crow's feet and parent pointer (with the arrowhead), but there's no such thing in the actual modeler.
2. Is there any way to manually route FK constraints lines?
3. When forward engineering from logical, is there any way to indicate the preferred name for keys and indexes (primary, unique, foreign)?
4. Mandatory/optional indicator on tables: what exactly does 'N' or 'A' stand for? I can understand 'N' meaning "Not optional", but 'A'? Wouldn't it be simpler to use '*' and 'o' like in the logical?
Man, do I ever miss Designer!
Thanks,
Patrick

Here's one more question:
I've transformed several super/sub entities to relational, and some of the tables do not allow me to open Properties (on the table). I can use the navigator to open column properties, but cannot open table properties (neither from diagrammer nor from navigator). Some of the tables are two or three subtype levels deep, and I haven't figured out why some open and some don't.

Physical Model - "New" is grayed out on index creation

Hello,
Down in the physical model:
I have a table defined with 3 columns. It shows the existing index for the Primary Key for the table. I'm trying to add an index to another column. When I right-click on indexes, the word "New" is grayed out.
Can someone explain why I'm seeing this? Am not ruling out User-Error on my behalf.
Thanks,
Bob Larsen

Yes, that's right. You need to do this at the Relational Model level. Open the Properties Dialog for the Table, go to its Indexes tab, and use the "+" button to add the new Index.

Arc is not implemented for SQL Server 2005 physical model

I added the Arc in my relational model, which is supposed to provide that references are mutually exclusive (so only one refering column can be not null). However there is not any implementation for this in the SQL Server 2005 physical model. The SQL code generated simply ignores the Arc and allows any values for the columns covered by Arc. If we check Oracle physical model. then it generates some trigger, which controls how many columns have values assigned - this is actually an implementation of Arc. But there is nothing of this kind for SQL Server model...
By the way, implementing this Arc by trigger looks like to heavy approach. The very simple table level check constraint will do the same job. But this is a different subject though.

Hi Dmitry,
it's fixed in Data Modeler 3.1 EA2.

Schemas to Users in Oracle Physical Model

I created a relation model and sorted out the tables among the schemas. Now I am trying to create a physical model (Oracle 11g). It works and the tables are created in but there are only two Oracle users (PUBLIC & MDSYS). All the tables in the physical model have blank user (schema) field. Does it mean that I should create the users (schemas) again and sorted out the tables in the physical model?
I cannot find an option that allows me to transform the schemas in the relation model into the users in the physical model saving the links between the users and the tables.
Does this option (way) exist?
Regards,
userIV

Thank you for the prompt answer.
Anyway it seems to me strange why schemes can not be auto created ion the physical level - I think it's quite rare situation when definition in the relational model can be different from the physical one. Fortunately it's no so many users I need in mu case.

After I delete the physical model, I can commit just fine. What could be wrong?

Clone Physical model didn't create grants for a packages

Hi All,
first of all I have to say that I'm using the tool more everyday,
I think is a really powerfull tool also if you are able to combine with SqlDeveloper,
My problem is that I have packages created in the Physical design of my model but I have several environments (PROD, UAT,DEV),
I could have different packages related to the same model in each physical model, that's really great,
I fixed my relational model and after I have defined all the privilege criteria in the Physical model (this should be PROD environment),
I have created a new physical model to reference one of the other environments but when I have cloned from the previous one the grants that I gave for this packages has not been clone as well,
anyway congrats for the develop, altough I have a couple of questions I will posted later in other threads,
I still think is a one of the best options in the market to work with the relational model,
Thanks in advance
Note: version 3.1.0.683

Hi,
Thanks for your comments on Data Modeler.
I've just done a quick test on your cloning problem, and it seems to be working fine for me.
The cloning operation works on saved Physical Models, so is it possible that the Physical Model had not been saved to filestore after the privileges were added?
Regards,
David
