Substitution Method to get hostname(ODIServer)

Any quick substitution method I can use to get the hostname of the server the Agent is running on? Im looking for the least impact possible, could set up a variable etc. but that would mean a lot of changes in my enviroment
If I can do so with substitution method I can swipe the repos tables in one hit.
Many thanks
Alastair

Hi,
hoping to help you could use this workaround
-create a flexfield on pysical agent
-create a userfunction that decodes your agent name to its internal id
-use in your interface
<%=odiRef.getFlexFieldValue(myFunction(odiRef.getSession("AGENT_NAME"),"<AGENT_TYPE>","FLEX_HOSTNAME")%>
I know it's quite twisted...

Substitution method to get work rep name

Hi all,
what is the substitution method I need to use to get the work rep name.
Thank you,
K

Hi Guru,
Thank you for the reply.
we can use the method <%=odiRef.getPrevStepLog("INSERT_COUNT")%> to get row count only for the previous step. I have a package here with almost 20 steps in it. I want to make sure none of these 20 steps have downloaded any records. Hence, I declared a variable and did a sum(NB_INS) from SNP_STEP_LOG for that particular session. And, I then evaluated if this variable is > 0. Any other better way of doing this? Thank you
Regards,
K

How to get Interface's Internal ID using substitution methods

Do anyone have any idea, how can I get an Interface's internal ID. Is there any substitution method that I can use to get the ID.
I want to use this ID in the steps of Knowledge Module (KM).

But querying SNP_POP to get the ID in a refresh variable will force me to create a package. I can't afford to do that because my KM will be used in several interfaces and packages. So, I have to find all such packages and add this variable in all of them which is a tedious task.
Anyways, thanks for your response!

Variable Substitution Method

Hi,
When Im going through the variable substitution method with respect to the target directory:
with the help of the blog
An interesting usage of Variable Substitution in XI
I dint understand what is the SID here. SID of different systems like DEV system, PRD system and etc. What exactly is an SID?
If we take SID as a variable in the variable substitution method, then the value to VAR will be getting from the header i.e, Receiver_Service.
From where does the Receiver_Service gets the SID? whenever the system is changed from DEV to PRD or to someother.
Kindly let me know if i can get any such other blogs on this scenario.
Thanks in Advance,
Divya

Hi ,
As said above Message header contains the following informations
sender_party
sender_service
receiver_party
receiver_service
interface_name
interface_namespace
message_id
message_id_hex
SID stands for System ID and is a three character unique name for a SAP system. It will be different for different systems like for Dev system it may be XXX and for quality system say YYY and similarly for production system say ZZZ. Message header values are accessed dynamically.
Thanks!

Use substitution methods in variable

Hi All,
How do I use substitution methods in variable? For example, I am trying to get a session number in to a variable.
I defined a variable and wrote the followign querry
select <%=odiRef.getSession("SESS_NO")%> from dual.
When I click on tick mark to check the syntax, it is throwing an error message saying missing expression. Please help me out. THank you!

Put quotes around the substitution method:
select '<%=odiRef.getSession("SESS_NO")%>' from dual
You will not be able to "test" this, you can execute it, and see what the result comes back.

How to get hostname of a remote computer by ip

how to get hostname of a remote computer by ip

In InetAddress class we have a method
public String getHostName() which returns the name of the host. If applet security prevents the name, the same ipaddress entered is returned back.
This program is the implementation of this method:
import java.net.*;
public class ipdemo
public static void main(String arg[])
try
InetAddress add=InetAddress.getByName("207.228.236.39");
System.out.println(add.getHostName());
catch(UnknownHostException e)
System.out.println("Exception raised");
This will help you.

ODI substitution method in procedure

Hi Gurus,
I want to create an ODI procedure which will execute the code like
delete from target_table where target_table.column in ( select some_other_table.column from some_other_table where some_condition )
I want to use ODI substitution method for replacing target_table ,target_table.column ,some_other_table.column .
Tried with getTable() Method , but it seems (to me) that it works only on KM and not on procedure .
the following code returns error /exception "invalid table name specified "
delete from <%=odiRef.getTargetTable("RES_NAME")%>
By the way my source/target technology is Oracle.
Where am I going wrong ?
--Pujan

can any one help me in this ?
Observer the following
In ODI package OdiOutFile , if I specify this command
SELECT COUNT(1) FROM <%=odiRef.getObjectName("L","EMP","LOG_SRC","D")%>
In the out file I get the correct command as SELECT COUNT(1) FROM SCOTT.EMP
But if I specify the same command in a procedure then it is ruturning the following
Description Tab : select count(1) from < % = odiRef.getObjectName("L","EMP","LOG_SRC","D") % >
Execution Tab: 903 : 42000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00903: invalid table name

Can substitution methods other than the Global be used in a procedure ?

Hi All,
I am very much new to ODI .Apologies if the question seems silly.
As part of an exercise I am working with ODI variables and substitution methods.
My question is substitution methods like odiRef.getColList,odiRef.getFrom,getTargetColList() used in KM's for Code Generation while executing an interface,
can they be used in a ODI procedure giving the necessary parameters as they require .
Eg : Command on source :
select
     <%=odiRef.getColList("", "[COL_NAME]", ",\n\t", "", "")%>
from <%=odiRef.getObjectName( "TABLE_NAME" )%>
Command on target :
insert into <%=odiRef.getTable("L", "TABLE_NAME", "D")%>
     <%=odiRef.getColList("", "[CX_COL_NAME]", ",\n\t", "","")%>
values
     <%=odiRef.getColList("", ":[CX_COL_NAME]", ",\n\t", "","")%>
Ofcourse ,this is what an interface does but my requirement is to pass table name as variables and run this code iteratively to load targets,which again will be passed as variable.
Will this run as a ODI procedure ?I tried and am getting exception errors.The getobjectName being global works fine with the proper table name generated in the code,but the getCollist does not work .Hence wanted to know if this standalone procedure is possible or will this code run only as part of KM over a interface?
Thanks,

Hi ,
I had gone through this document,and from other sources also got a same answer that it cant be used.But is there a way it can be done?
Actually we have many number of the small tables with just 10 records to be brought into the warehouse.The idea is to instead of doing it via an interface , why not try with a control table with an just the relevant entries and a procedure as above posted code.
Some ideas would help.
Thanks,

System does not support substitution methods in UWL

Hello Experts,
I am getting "System does not support substitution methods" error message while creating UWL substitution rule in EP7.0.When I check the detailed error message this message is shown for only some systems and remianing systems success message is displayed.
What could be the reason for this issue.
Any help will be greatly appriciated.
Thanks,

Hi, we had the issue following application of SP11->SP18 (NW7.0);
The application of 'SAP Note 1133821 - UWL Destination Service configuration' resolved this in our case.
Hope this helps

Why can I no longer, after having downloaded Lion, write accents and other diacriticals when in the Google, Yahoo, FaceBook, or even here in this post? The new method for getting at the "option" symbols works fine in other places like spotlight, but now even the older "option+letter" doesn't work in most places.

Chrome doesn't support the new accent/diacritics/macron chooser. I'm not sure about other browsers such as Firefox. You can use the old Option+letter combination that Doug suggested. Hopefully updates will solve these little incompatibilities shortly.

Getter & Setter Method not getting called for a field enhanced through AET

Hello,
I am new to SAP CRM 7.0 and working on a requirement.
A Z-field was added by our functional guy in CRM 7.0 WebGui through AET in the 'Create Opportunity' transaction (Header data).
Now the requirement is, as soon as the opportunity is created through the WebGui, I should post a document in R/3 and paste that document number back to the enhanced Z-field in opportunity.
Work done by me:
I pressed F2 on the enhanced Z-field in the WebGui screen and took the details of view, component name etc. After this I went to normal SAP CRM system and open tcode "BSP_WD_CMPWB", located the corresponding view "BT111H_OPPT/Details" and right clicked & enhanced the same.
Then I opened the structure of this view, expanded context node, located context "BTOPPORTH" and inside this, located my Z-attribute. Now right clicked on the Z-attribute & selected the option "Generate SETTER & GETTER Methods" and these were generated successfully.
Problem:
The problem is even after putting external break points in these methods, these methods are not getting called while creating, modifying & displaying the Opportunity in WebGui.
I hope that for the requirements that I have, I have to do the coding in "Getter & Setter" methods. But since these are not getting called, I am unable to proceed.
Please help/suggest how to achieve this.
Thanks in anticipation.
Best Regards,
Rahul Malani

Hi,
If you can see the field in UI and still get_ method is not being triggered then try to regenerate these methods. If it still doesn't work then please look for SAP notes or raise an OSS.
There should be some note for the issue you faced.
please refer:
Help Needed immediately - AET getter setter methods not getting triggered
