Setting HOMEPAGE for USERs, rolewise OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I have OBIEE 11g Dashboards on top of an Essbase cube. I would like to have a default homepage set per user role.
I have followed the below link: http://obieeelegant.blogspot.fi/2011/06/how-to-changing-theobiee11g-homepage.html , which suggests to have two tables in the database.
But how do I capture the User ids in this case. My security model has got Nested Groups and Nested Roles.
Any suggestion on how to proceed, please.

Hi Kalyan,
i referred this blog for adding tns entries for OBIEE 11g, for windows users.cmd has only one TNS_ADMIN, but in users.sh file there are many TNS_ADMIN and moreover all are are commented out, so i am not sure where and to what i should assign the path.
Thanks,
Sree

How to use Powershell to set delegate for user mailbox in Exchange 2010 and Office 365

Hello,
Can you please tell me if I can set delegate for user mailbox in Exchange 2010 or Office 365 using Powershell?
If I can, then how can I do that? (which Powershell commands for setting the delegate?)
Many thanks, and have a good day!

Hi,
If you wanted to add a delegate to possiblly a large number of users or you do this during mailbox provisioning. So the following script will use
impersonation to access another users mailbox and add a delegate.
$mbtoDelegate = "[email protected]"
$delegatetoAdd = "[email protected]"
$dllpath = "C:\Program Files\Microsoft\Exchange\Web Services\1.0\Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.dll"
[void][Reflection.Assembly]::LoadFile($dllpath)
$service = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeService([Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ExchangeVersion]::Exchange2007_SP1)
$windowsIdentity = [System.Security.Principal.WindowsIdentity]::GetCurrent()
$sidbind = "LDAP://<SID=" + $windowsIdentity.user.Value.ToString() + ">"
$aceuser = [ADSI]$sidbind
$service.AutodiscoverUrl($aceuser.mail.ToString())
$service.ImpersonatedUserId = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ImpersonatedUserId([Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.ConnectingIdType]::SmtpAddress,
$mbtoDelegate);
$mbMailbox = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.Mailbox($mbtoDelegate)
$dgUser = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateUser($delegatetoAdd)
$dgUser.ViewPrivateItems = $false
$dgUser.ReceiveCopiesOfMeetingMessages = $false
$dgUser.Permissions.CalendarFolderPermissionLevel = [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateFolderPermissionLevel]::Editor
$dgUser.Permissions.InboxFolderPermissionLevel = [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateFolderPermissionLevel]::Reviewer
$dgArray = new-object Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.DelegateUser[] 1
$dgArray[0] = $dgUser
$service.AddDelegates($mbMailbox, [Microsoft.Exchange.WebServices.Data.MeetingRequestsDeliveryScope]::DelegatesAndMe, $dgArray);
Hope this helps.

Default Colors Limit for Graph in OBIEE 11g

Hi, I'm using OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.6.6)
When I use a graph (either bar or pie), I notice that OBIEE only has 12 default colors to use in the graph. So it starts from blue, red, and so forth, until the 12th color, then for the 13th color it will use the same blue again, and so forth.
The problem is that my column values are more than 12 (it could be 20, it could be 30, etc). So, the repeating colors doesn't make any sense for the graphs.
Could somebody please advise me on how to increase the default number of default colors used by OBIEE (so that it will be like 50 default colors set automatically by OBIEE, just in case)?
Thanks so much!

Hi,
type HexaDecimal colors in google you will find n number of colors with the code number, just use this color codes by adding# before every code in the column format properties.
for ex: #ccc99
Follow this follwoing link

Restricting access to some of the LDAP users in obiee 11g.

Hi Experts,
I have successfully integrated LDAP with OBIEE 11g and user's are Authenticated to login to obiee using their LDAP credentials.
But the case is All the employees in the company who have ldap are able to login(any way this is expected as we integrated ldap with OBIEE)
Is there any way that we can restrict the access to users who don't need OBIEE. If so please suggest me the required steps.
Edited by: MKC on Oct 5, 2012 7:43 AM

Handle it in LDAP side, try to create a group in LDAP for BI users and use it in integration so that only this specific group uses sit in bi side.

Create a user in OBIEE 11g

Hi,
I am new to OBIEE 11g.Can any one help to create an user?I mean to say when he types that URL,the user login screen comes and he can use his own user ID and password to do the same.
Regards,

Mainak,
To create a new user you have to use the weblogic server admin console.
For example, http://hostname:7001/console.
Here is a good link that explains how to do this.

Users in OBIEE 11g RPD

Hi all ,
I have scenario where i need to apply data level security for few users.
And i am trying to redefine the permissions for that user in RPD in offline mode , i failed to see those users in IDENTITY window.
Can some one please tell me , how to come over this issue ,
Thanks

Hi Raj,
In data level security for users level, You have to implement external table authorization.
1. Create table in database.
2. create session variable in rpd.
If you want some more extend information.
Refer to following links:

How to set restriction for user in sap

Hi,
I have created a user,now i need to restrict the user to work only for 8 hrs per day.HOw can i set timing for the user.Kindly help out regarding this.
Regards
sekar

Sekar,
If you use external authetnication for users when they logon to SAP, then you can control the times they can logon and which days of week (if required). For example, it is possible to use Active Directory authentication to authenticate users to SAP application via SNC or using a custom login module in WebAS Java, and in AD you can set times when logons are allowed. This might be what you are looking for ?
If you want to log somebody off SAP when they have been using it for a period of time, then this can be dangerous if they are in the middle of a complex transaction when they are logged off. Also, I don't think this functionality is included in SAP product. If you don't want somebody to use SAP at certain times of day, then it might be better to force a screen saver at workstation instead, if this is what you want.

Tim
