Selecting data source in physical view in OBIEE 11G when using sql server

Hi,
I doing my physical view against a 2008 R2 SQL Server. Looks like the list goes upto 2005. Should I select 2005 in that case? As per image: http://i.imgur.com/3H7MO.png
Cheers.
I am using OBIEE 11G 32bit Windows.

Hi,
Yes can. either you can select as SQL 2005 or ODBC basic also can
I hope your version less than obiee11.1.1.5.0, version 11.1.1.1.6.0 and above has update SQL 2008 in the data source selection list.

  • Problem in Obiee 11g when using Essbase as a data source.

    Hi,
    I imported Essbase objects into RPD. I would like to build an report analyzing by "City" (e.g. HK) and "Channel" (e.g. Bar, Restaurant). However, this dimension combined as one dimension in Essbase. Is there any methods to separate one dimension into two in RPD? Or, is there any trick can I used to complete this task?
    Btw, I have tried to duplicate the whole set of Essbase objects in RPD. Then, join the copy to the original object by using the dimension key in both object. For example, "Customer" in original object is joining to "Customer" in copied object. However, an error prompted out when I run the report by dragging the dimension and a "Fact" measure into it.
    The error message as follow:
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS. [nQSError: 42015] Cannot function ship the following expression: AggrExternal(D901.c1 by [ D902.c1, D902.c2] ). (HY000)
    Is there any method to join an external table to Essbase object in RPD? For example, external table contain (Code, Description, Postal Code) and Essbase table contain only (Code, Description). How can I use the "Postal Code" to a report as well?

    It appears that I can view in Excel through the RPD when I am accessing the RPD in offline mode. If I try to access through online mode it just says "Connection Failed".
    I also tried viewing the data through Answers but received the following error:
    Error Codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P
    State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS.

    Does the file have to reside someplace special?

  • Date type is not captured in Visual composer 7.0 using SQL server as DB

  • The selected data source is read-only

    Anyone know how to fix this "issue"
    The selected data source is read-only. You cannot change the view configuration.
    Thanks in Advance.

    Assuming that it's not actually read-only (because you're trying to hit a follower node or a data source that is currently loading non transactionally, etc.), you should be able to just click the Data Source edit button and click Save to "wake it up".
    In previous versions of the product there was a "Refresh Data Sources" that would do the trick but I haven't seen it in the 3.0 version of Studio.
    If enough people need it, maybe we'll just write it or something.

  • Select Data Source and Microsoft Security Issue

    Hi,
    Tool- Xcelsius 2008, QAaWS
    When I open dashboard, it gives message "Microsoft Office has identified a potential security concern" "Data Connection have been blocked. If you choose to enable data connection, your computer may no longer be secure. Do not enable this content unless you trust the source of this file." with <Enable> and <Discable> buttons.
    If it Enabled then leads to "Select Data Source" screen and asks details for DSN.
    At every open it shows same messages.
    Please, help if anyone knows or faced this issue.
    Regards,
    Ashish

    hi,
    this is a really old post.
    please could you specify your exact workflow ?
    what connectors your dashboard is using?
    also, what version and SP and patch are you using for Xcelsius client?
    i.e. Are you up to date with latest compatibility updates?

  • Customize Filter View in OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    Is there any way to customize the filter view? My requirement is not to show formulas that are used in Analysis in the “Filter view”. All analysis that we create should go with Filter Views at the bottom and Users should not see the formulas.
    Example:
    Column Formula:
    FILTER (sales.sales USING products.product =’Electronics’)
    If I filter the above column, it shows something like this:
    FILTER (sales.sales USING products.product =’Electronics’) is Prompted.
    What is need to show in the filters is the Title of the column i.e. Electronics Sales.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Using SQL Server credentials with Secure Store Target Application for Data Connection in Dashboard Designer

    [Using SharePoint 2013 Enterprise SP1]
    I would like to use SQL Server credentials in a Secure Store Target Application, and
    this page makes it look like it's possible but when I attempt to use the new Target Application ID as authentication for a Data Connection in Dashboard Designer, I get a generic "Unable to access data source" with no error logged in SQL Server
    logs.
    I am able to use a Target Application with AD credentials to access the SQL db without a problem. Suggestions?

    Hi,
    1. Make sure that the credential is set to
    Secure Store Target Application. Navigate to the Central Administration. Click on the
    Application Management. Click on the Manage Service Applications. Click on the
    Secure Store Service Application. Select the application ID and from the ECB menu click on the
    Set Credentials. Enter the Credential Owner, Windows User Name and the
    Windows Password.
    2. Make sure that in the Dashboard Designer “Use a stored account” is selected in the “Authentication” and the proper application ID is mentioned.

  • Send encrypted data from oracle 11g to Ms SQL Server 12

    Hi every body,
    we want to send encrypted data from oracle 11g to Ms SQL Server 12:
    - data are encrypted to oracle
    - data should be sent encrypted to Ms SQL server
    - data will be decrypted in Ms SQL server by sensitive users.
    How can we do this senario, any one has contact simlare senario?
    can we use asymetric encription to do this senario?
    Please Help!!
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
      What you want to do about copying data from Oracle to SQL*Server using insert will work with the 12c gateway.  There was a problem trying to do this using the 11.2 gateway but it should be fixed with the 12c gateway.
    If 'insert' doesn't work then you can use the SQLPLUS 'copy' command, for example -
    SQL> COPY FROM SCOTT/TIGER@ORACLEDB -
    INSERT SCOTT.EMP@MSQL -
    USING SELECT * FROM EMP
    There is further information in this note available on My Oracle Support -
    Copying Data Between an Oracle Database and Non-Oracle Foreign Data Stores or Databases Using Gateways (Doc ID 171790.1)
    However, if the data is encrypted already in the Oracle database then it will be sent in the encrypted format. The gateway cannot decrypt the data before it is sent to SQL*Server.
    There is no specific documentation about the gateways and TDE.  TDE encrypts the data as it is in the Oracle database but I doubt that SQL*Server will be able to de-encrypt the Oracle data if it is passed in encrypted format and as far as I know it is not designed to be used for non-Oracle databases.
    The Gateway encrypts data as it is sent across the network for security but doesn't encrypt the data at source in the same way as TDE does.

    Mike

  • Date parameter does not work in SharePoint 2010 report using SQL 2008 Server Reporting Service

    Here is the settings:
    SharePoint 2010 with SQL server 2008 reporting services configured
    When create a report for a SP list using SQL server report builder (3.0) the date parameter does not work.
    The data parameter is set as "date and time" type and field name equals the col name in the SP list
    When run the report, the whatever dates I select, the result is always the same, so the parameters do not take any effect.
    Is any step missing?
    Thanks for any advice !

    Hi ,
    How did you configure you "date and time" type parameter and field name equals the col name in the SP list?
    Have you tested if other type parameter worked?
    Have you tried typing the date format as 20140722 in your date parameter filed before run the report?
