Running OWB without Oracle Workflow?

Hi,
I have developed a simple mapping that joins few tables into one.
Is it possible to run the mapping in runtime environment without installing the Oracle Workflow?

Hi,
Yes. You can run a mapping from Deployment Manager without Oracle Workflow.
Oracle Work flow is an optional one, and is only required if you have designed process flows to determine the dependency among the mappings.
good luck

  • |Running processflows without using Workflow??

    Hello,
    Is it possible to run prcoessflows without using workflow, i don't want to depend on workflow to run it on schedules, we will use another schedular technology to run processflows.
    But, is this possible and is there any package created in OWF_MGR database by workflow for each processflow to use it in running ???
    Thanks......

    if you are going to use another scheduler then why not create a workflow within the scheduler for eg, if you using control M scheduler, then
    all you go to do is prepare a workflow on ctrol M using the mappings from OWB and run it on control M. Either you create everything in owb and run in owb or just create the mapping in owb and run everything out of OWB why create a workflow in owb and run it on other scheduler. If you create a workflow in some other scheduler then you got better control over the processes running otherwise if will be difficult to handle errors and exceptions.
    If you know what is process flow should look like then its much easier to create it on a scheduler if the software you are using is capable of doing it. I know for sure Control M and autosys are capable of doing it.

  • Changing the RunAs account without reinstalling Workflow Manger

    For SharePoint 2013 installation, I need to change the RunAs account.
    is it possible to change the RunAs account without reinstalling Workflow Manger/SB Manager without complete uninstall? Even if I remove all servers from the farm, seems like the RunAs account is always in Management db, so RunAs account is pre-populated
    with the old account.
    Thank you

    To change the RunAs account of the Service Bus, use following PowerShell commands:
    Stop-SBFarm
    Set-SBFarm -RunAsAccount Domain\Username
    $RunAsPassword = ConvertTo-SecureString
    -AsPlainText -Force
    '<password>'
    [RunOnAllNodes] Update-SBHost
    -RunAsPassword $RunAsPassword
    Start-SBFarm
    Then open the Service Control Manager and navigate to Workflow Backend Service and change manually the account.
    Restart the Wf Service.

  • Process flows without Oracle Workflow?

    I am using OWB 10.2, running with a 10.2 database. I want to create a new workflow module, package, and flow, and execute it the process flow using the OWB scheduler. The documentation implies that this configuration is possible, but when I create the workflow module it wants an Oracle Workflow connection for the location. I get the feeling that I'm overlooking something basic in the documentation.
    QUESTION:
    1) Is Oracle Workflow REQUIRED to create, deploy, and execute a process flow?

    Hi,
    Oracle Workflow is required for deploying processflow.
    Where did you read in documentation about possibilities of running processflows without OWF? OWB instalation guide tells:
    "If you plan to use Warehouse Builder process flows, you need to install Oracle Workflow to enable deployment."

  • OWB 11g2 & Oracle Workflow

    Hi all,
    We are trying Warehouse Builder 11g2 and also database 11g2. He have seen it works fine, but we algo have seen that Oracle Workflow it is not supported in this database version, and from Oracle recomends using BPEL.
    Is this true? What will we have to install? The way of develop is the same with BPEL?
    Thanks in advance

    Is this true? What will we have to install? The way of develop is the same with BPEL?As I know OWB11gR2 doesnt support direct deployment processflows to BPEL.
    Oracle Workflow server supplied with Oracle database 11g R2 (it installed with OWB, directory for WF is ORADB_HOME/owb/wf).
    If you used Workflow monitor you can install it from Oracle database 10g R2 CD.

    You have to install the Forms Runtime and SQL*Net on every
    Client that wants to use your forms.
    But you can use Forms Server + a Web Server to access your

  • OWB, Oracle WorkFlow, and OEM

    I am a DBA who has been charged with the task of integrating Oracle Warehouse Builder, Oracle Workflow and OEM. Our source database is 9i but our Intelligence Team would like to use 10G. Does anyone know how I might install this? Should I install 10G, then create a database for OWB and Oracle Workflow? Any direction would be helpful.

    Hi,
    Have you found an answer? If not read on.
    We are also having the same combination.
    1. Identify a target server (datawarehouse server).
    2. Install 10G database on it (create a seed database with DWH option).
    3. Install OWB
    4. Install workflow server.
    Then , make OWB setups :
    1. Install a design repository, through which the team can carry out ETL in the OWB client.
    2. Install a runtime repository which creates 2 users - a runtime repository owner and a runtime access user('connect as') user when deploying the ETL mappings.
    3. Install a target schema using the runtime where the target objects - tables, dimensions and cubes will be created.
    Then, in OWB, the team have to configure the source modules as 9i and the target modules as 10g.
    Hope this helps.

  • Is Oracle Workflow required to execute OWB schedules?

    Hi,
    I want to create and deploy a schedule in OWB 10gR2 to automatically run my OWB process flow every week. I would like to know
    1) Whether I need to install Oracle workflow too in order to execute the process flow as per the schedule created?
    2) If not, how does the OWB scheduler work?
    3) Also, if the scheduled proces flow terminates due to some error, how do I resume executing it from the point of termination after correcting the error?
    Thanks
    Amit

    Hi Amit,
    1. Is the workflow monitor a standard part of Oracle workflow,or does one need a separate license for it?All parts Oracle workflow (workflow server, workflow monitor, workflow builder) licensed with Oracle database licenses,
    so if you buy Oracle database you can use workflow components without any limitations.
    2. In your approach, you had mentioned that there should be no transitions for error, but I would like to send an email notification to the DW administrator incase of an error before suspending the process flow.My recomendation is to use additional PL/SQL procedure which will executed periodically (for example every 30 minutes, scheduled with DBMS_JOBS/DBMS_SCHEDULER),
    in this procedure you can use query on OWB public view (ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS) or workflow repository views/tables
    for identification failed steps/mappings (if you decide to use OWB public view) or "stucked" processflow (if you will use workflow views/tables,
    algorithm of identification stucked processflow you can see in workflow PL/SQL package WF_ENGINE, procedure ProcessStuckProcess).
    Using post-mapping is more expensive because you need modify each mapping which you want to monitor for fails.
    Example of query for identifiaction failed steps (PL/SQL prcoedures and mappings) within period of time datetime1..datetime2 with ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS
    select * from ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS where task_type in ('PLSQL','PLSQLProcedure')
    and NOT (return_result is null or return_result='OK') and :datetime1<=created_on and created_on<:datetime2

  • OWB process flow & Oracle Workflow

    Hi,
    In order to deploy the OWB process flow packages, is it necessary to have Oracle workflow installed on the Target server? When I tried to deploy a process flow package to the target database (10gR2 db), it required a user called owf_mgr. As far I know, owf_mgr is the admin user for workflow. Can this feature work without OWF being installed?
    Thanks for your help

  • How to run Oracle Workflow Project

    Hi people
    I've installed Oracle Workflow Server in a SUN machine and I have one
    development machine with the OWB (Oracle Warehouse Builder) and Oracle
    Client (Oracle Enterprise Manager Client and Oracle Workflow Builder).
    My OWB Project has several mappings that load tables in a Data Warehouse.
    When I deploy these mappings one by one, in OEM, I can execute them in OEM
    and they work well.
    But when I use the Workflow Deployment Wizard, I create a new Workflow
    Project (Item type and Process).
    But I can't Launch this process. I go to Launch Process in Workflow page
    (http://<my machine>:<port>/pls/<WorkDAD>/) but when I iniciate the project,
    it stops in the OWB Standard Begin Function. It does not go ahead.
    Any idea? Any hint will be very useful!

  • How to run Oracle workflow in windows 7 os

    You mean to say you installed Workflow Builder on your laptop? See that Oracle Workflow has a Client Side (WF Builder), a backend Server side and middle application side.
    Assuming you successfully installed the client side then you must have a group of programs called Oracle OUIHome and there one called Application Development. There you should be able to find Workflow builder.

  • URGENT: Oracle Workflow Error: API-10020 on Creation of OWB Process Flows

    I am trying to use Oracle Workflow to create Process Flows, in order to link together various mappings and components in Oracle Warehouse Builder. However, in the process flow editor window when I attempt to drag an object such as a mapping onto the editor panel, I get an error message stating the below:
    API-10020: Unable to determine if the map is a PLSQL or SQLLDR map, please correct the map or choose another map.
    All my maps are in PLSQL, and the language setting is set to this. I have tried modifying the langauge settings to see if it makes a difference but with no luck. My colleague believes this is a known bug in Oracle Workflow and there is a patch available to correct it.
    Can anyone help with this query please? Thank you for your time.

    In some versions of OWB (10.1, 10.2) The mapping property will display PL/SQL, but will actually be set to NULL in the repository (which will cause PL/SQL to be displayed as default).
    The fix is easy enough: in the developer navigator, right-click on the mapping and go to configure and set the generation language first to something other then PL/SQL (you should get an error) and then place it back to PL/SQL. This should force the GUI to reset the parameter.
    Alternatively, use OMB*Plus:
    OMBALTER MAPPING 'MAPPINGNAME' SET PROPERTIES \
    (GENERATION_LANGUAGE) VALUES ('PLSQL');
    Good Luck,

  • Integration of Oracle Workflow with OWB

    Hi,
    I am using OWB 10gR2. Can you please give me some guidelines on integrating Oracle workflow with OWB? I have to deploy OWB schedules to Oracle Workflow.
    Thanks,
    Praveen

    Keep in mind that these are really two different products.
    First make sure you have installed workflow (2.6.3 for Oracle10gR1, 2.6.4 for Oracle10gR2 for the TARGET database).
    Then create a connection to the workflow schema (default would be OWF_MGR). Then you can start creating your OWF packages using OWB and finally deploy your packages to the newly defined Workflow connection.
    On a sadder note, OWF really blows. But that's just me.

  • Running oracle workflow with J2EE

    I am testing my new workflow installation on Oracle 10gApps. I downloaded Oracle Workflow with JwEE components from the OTN, but that seems used for NT only. My apps server is in unix. I can not go any further because I don't have oc4j for my client (nt) computer. Can someone help? All I want to do is to make sure I can run an sample workflow process, by submitting a request from web, and send the notification to someone. Thanks.

    Hello,
    All the PL/SQL engine API's have equivalent Java api's which you can call from your Java application.
    Oracle Workflow with J2EE Components download from OTN provides you with the instructions on running a J2EE application. The whitepaper documents step to deploy in a J2EE container in the windows env. The basic steps should not change in UNIX or any other platform.
    To set up the mailer on 2.6.2, please take a look at the Workflow Guide. There is a complete section on how to set up and run the Notification Mailer
    If you are running 2.6.3, then the mailer is Java based and is part of the Workflow Manager pages. Refer to the on-line help of the Workflow Manager.
