ReportMigration Using LCM & Simple Import & Export.

Hi,
I just want to know the difference between these two.. migrating the reports using LCM or by a simple import & export.
Will LCM even migrate the user security which is associated with the report??
Can anybody throw some light on this.
Thanks
Jagadesh R K.

Yes, LCM can be used to export / import Reports / Application provisioning.

  • LCM vs IMPORT/EXPORT utility

    Hi,
    what is the better option for importing a planning application? LCM or import/export utility? Which one should i folloow? Which is more error-prone??
    Thanks.

    Thanks John... you perhaps remember i faced some problem in importing the access rights for certain data forms and task lists of my application using LCM. It could not find the appropriate data form or task list... Then i tried the utility and the import operation was 100%. And John... i was able to import the application into a whole different application( different name), even whose owner is different as well. I am using v11. But the LCM is very disturbing. It might show Completed, but one has to search through the application dimensions, forms everything if all the components and security have been imported properly.
    John you said that obviously there are going to be some problems with LCM, then also what makes you recommend LCM over utility? I mean is there anything that LCM provides and utility does not?? Or it is just the GUI and easy to execute??
    Thanks.

  • Using DB2's import/export utilities in Java program

    DB2 database has build in utility called export, throgh which we can export the output of a Query directly onto a Lotus 123 file. But I beleive that , to invoke such DB2 utilities throgh a Java Program, we need to have APIs.
    My question is ,are such APIs available ?
    If so, what are the APIs necessary for calling this EXPORT and IMPORT utilities of DB2 ?

    Well, If you have to use Runtime.exec() and provide these as command lines, then the best option is to write a shell script( my Java application is on AIX platform) and then call the shell script through exec().
    But Shell scripts don't run well with Runtime.exec() right ?
    B'Cause, I tried it but the application did'nt throw up any exception. No message was flashed either. The process was just hanging.....so do you know a better method to actually run a shell script through a Java program ?

  • How to transport a VC model other than the simple import/export?

    Hello,
    What are the other options I have to transport a VC moel from one portal to another other than the export/import option that goes through my local filesystem?
    If I will use the portal transport package to transfer the iView generated it won't work since the iView doesn't contain the complied application in it that needs to be deployed to the server. So what are the other option I have? And as a followup question, does VC integrated with NWDI or NWDS in some way?

    Hi,
    > If I will use the portal transport package to

    > iView doesn't contain the complied application in it
    > that needs to be deployed to the server.
    Are you Compiling the VC model with "Deploy Model with PAR" checkbox in compiler tab checked? If you create a transport package and add all objects in the model folder, it will work.
    What are the issues you are facing in portal transport import?

  • Simple import/export workflow question

    I don't use LR myself but I'm trying to plan out what I thought might be a fairly simple workflow for a photographer to get lightroom to spit out watermarked images at a certain size ready to upload via ftp to his website.
    So far I have discovered that Lightroom does not offer simple ftp upload, it always wants to create a gallery of some sort whereas I just want an image dump into a folder on the server.
    Secondly, if I try to export files to a folder on my Mac there's no way of getting them watermarked.
    Anyone here fancy some simple step by step advice?
    thanks
    A

    I also have a MAC and the interface is the same (the locations of the apps are obviously different). It may be that I use LR/Mogrify in this case rather than LR2/Mogrify as I have both installed and mix and match modules from the two plug ins (both work with LR2 on windows and OSX). I have been mixing and matching the modules from the two plug ins for so long I don't actually know which is which! Try installing LR/Mogrify as well as LR2/Mogrify and see.

  • Using bash to import/export from qt

    i have an operation i perform repeatedly and would like to write
    a bash script to do it automatically.
    what i'd like to do is:
    1. open an image sequence in qtplayer
    2. file--->export
    3. set options (like custom size, what codec)
    4. save the export as the same filename as the first file of the image sequence
    can this be done via bash?
    can anyone point me to some info on passing parameters to qtplayer via bash?
    thanks,
    BabaG

    Have you tried using Applications -> Automator -> Record and then let Automator record steps you want to do. If that works, it would be the easiest way to automate this.
    If you want to invoke the Automator script you can use the open command from within bash
    If Automator -> Record does not work for you needs, then an Applescript is the next thing you should try. If you want to invoke this from bash use the osascript command.
    Applescript questions would be best asked in the Apple Applescript forum <http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=724>
    If you want/need more bash shell script questions answered, the Apple Unix forum would be the best bet <http://discussions.apple.com/forum.jspa?forumID=735>
    And while I'm mentioning the open command, you can start *QuickTime Player* with a specific file usng open
    open -a /Applications/QuickTime Player.app file.jpg
    Where file.jpg could be any file that *QuickTime Player* knows how to handle.
    Steps 2, 3, & 4 are operations that would be better handled via Automator or Applescript.

    I would dearly like to know if there is a solution to this as well.

  • Using XML to import/export large datasets

    Hi,
    I have a large customer who is using serveral aplications which
    exchange data. Now they use MQUE Series to put some data on the
    line. Each external application has his own interface.
    We would like to use one interface which uses XML and depending
    on what is in de xml-document, writes it in different Oracle
    databases.
    On a daily bases there must be created 500.000 records in de
    database, so performance is a hot issue.
    What are the possibilities and needed configuration (Oracle
    8...i) and how reliable it is going to be ?
    Suppose we want to use as much as pl/sql as possible.

    You should check out the Oracle Integration Server which was
    just announced at Openworld. It is ax XML Messaging Hub that
    incorporates workflow and has an adapter SDK to connect to your
    applications. It uses JMS as the envelope and XML as the payload.

    Will LCM even migrate the user security which is associated with the report??
    Can anybody throw some light on this.

    Lifecycle management is an application for managing EPM Artifacts for such areas as migration and can be automated, simple import/export is a manual process
    Basically they are doing the same thing, security can be migrated using LCM, I am not so sure how good it is at workspace security but in theory with newer versions of LCM all areas should be covered.

  • 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.

  • Automate Outlook Contact import/export?

    I am in the process of developing a contact management system
    for my company and have built coldfusion pages that allow the user
    to import their personal contacts from outlook, as well as export
    contacts from the system into their MS Outlook contacts.
    The process is fairly simple on the users (in my mind) but it
    requires using Outlook's import/export function, which is about 6
    or 7 steps. My users would of course like to have this process
    simplified.
    Is it possible to have a button on one of my pages that
    automates the entire process? i.e. creates the csv file (or
    whatever other format is needed) and then automatically pushes that
    data into outlook (and vice versa) ?
    Any thoughts or suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    If your Outlook users are using Exchange you might look into
    ColdFusion's Exchange features.

  • Attunity connectors for Oracle in Import Export Wizard in SQL Server 2008 R2

    Is there a way we can see the Attunity connectors drivers in the Import/Export Wizard (64 bit) for SQL Server 2008 R2?
    Although I made it work for SSIS, I would need these drivers in the Import/Export wizard so as to automate it for numerous number of tables which I want to migrate.
    Can the Attunity connectors for Oracle be used in the Import/Export wizard? If so please let me know.
    Regards,
    Ashutosh.
    Ashutosh.

    I have 100 tables to migrate. Creating a data flow for each table is tedious and that's why I was looking out for a way to do it through import export wizard so that I don't have to create a separate data source and destination for each table in the Data
    flow Task.
    Is there a way to loop through all tables and transfer data in SSIS without having multiple sources and destinations created for each table? This also involves a bit of transformation as well.

  • Update rules import/export

    Hi expterts,
    I'm trying to export some structures from a BW system in order to import them in to another one.
    I'm using the XML import/export tool and it seems to work fine for ODS but I'm finding some problems to export the update rules because when I import them it simply does not create anything.
    Is there a way to manage this issue ?
    best regards,
    mirco

    You can try using the Microsoft.Office.Server.Search.Portability namespace in the object model. This can be done per site collection and does include query rules.

  • CSS Import/Export Utility

    I'm trying to export users and groups along with their provisions using the CSS Import/Export utility, and I've configured my importexport.properties file to include export.provisioning.all=true, but the exported file does not include any provisioning. Is there a way to fix this?

    I agree with Seb. I could not get the 9.2.0.1 utility to work. It was exporting only native groups and the members in each group and not any provisioning info.
    Once I installed the 9.3.1 version of the utility, it all worked fine. Make sure you install JAVA JDK 1.5 as the utility needs that version. Just install in same path as the cssimportexport utility so that it doesn't conflict with any earlier versions of java (we had 1.4.2) on that server.

    Hello,
    I am using SharePoint 2007. 
    I am trying to migrate some subsites from one site collection to other using STS ADM Import/Export command. while migrating I am facing some issues related to document versions and List data.
    After migration some data from document library and lists, some data is missing. I am not sure why this is happening.
    what should I do to avoid this situation?
    does anyone face similar issue?
    Is there any other way to migrate data from one site collection to other without any loss in data?
