What is the use of Oracle BI Server DSN?

Hi,
I have the Admin Tool for OBIEE 11g installed as standalone installer.
While creating a new repository,I import the metadata by using ODBC DSN connection.I create a system DSN with the driver being 'Oracle in OraClient10g_home n'
I am not able to understand as to in what circumstances the ODBC DSN connection is created with the driver being 'Oracle BI Server n'.
Someone kindly let me know the use of creating a connection with the DSN 'Oracle BI Server n'.
Also once I deploy an RPD on to my BI Server,if suppose the IP Address of the data source gets changed,then how can this be accomodated.
Thanks in Advance.
Regards,
Akshatha

Hi,
It is used to connect to a repository through the Oracle BI Server
i.e
OBI Server can handle multiple repository but you can connect to only one at the same time by DSN Odbc Connection. Therefore, you must set up an ODBC connection for each repository.

Repeated start/stop or redeploy causes memory leak (7393267)
Repeated start/stop or redeploy of an application causes memory to leak and the server has to be restarted to clean up the memory. New applications created in JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.1 will be configured with a Weblogic Application Lifecycle Listener to handle this scenario. For older applications migrated to 11.1.1.0.1, the listener will need to be manually added to the weblogic-application.xml of the application to solve this issue.

How to get rid of /j2ee prefix from URL when I use the OC4J via Oracle HTTP server

In 9iAS 9.0.2 Oracle HTTP Server (OHS) is pre-configured to assign requests to the Home OC4J instance via the URL-prefix "/j2ee"/
For example, the TEST servlet under OC4J would be passed through OHS using:
http://urmachine:urApachePort/j2ee/TEST
whereas in the standlone OC4J version, this URL works:
http://urmachine:urOC4JPort/TEST

What is the use of SYSAUX Tablespace in Oracle 10G

Dear Experts,
Please Tell me What is the use of SYSAUX Tablespace in Oracle 10G Because
during Web Load Testing It is going to increase countinuosly.Although i am not using this with any tables.
How Can I find out the what is gong on in this.
Can I Remove this tablesspace and other non using Schemas like FLOWS_020100,MDSYS,OUTLN,DIP and TSMSYS etc.

What is SYSAUX?
The SYSAUX tablespace provides storage of non-sys-related tables and indexes that traditionally were placed in the SYSTEM tablespace. For example, the tables and indexes that were previously owned by the system user can now be specified for a SYSAUX tablespace. Unfortunately, Oracle still places the SCOTT schema and the other demonstration schemas in the SYSTEM tablespace. Go figure.
The SYSAUX tablespace is specified with the CREATE DATABASE command. This is demonstrated in the example database creation script in Figure 1.1.
CREATE DATABASE test
MAXINSTANCES 1
MAXLOGHISTORY 1
MAXLOGFILES 5
MAXLOGMEMBERS 3
MAXDATAFILES 100
DATAFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/system01.dbf' SIZE 300M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10240K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL
SYSAUX DATAFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/sysaux01.dbf' SIZE 120M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 10240K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
DEFAULT TEMPORARY TABLESPACE TEMP TEMPFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/temp01.dbf' SIZE 20M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 640K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED EXTENT MANAGEMENT LOCAL
UNDO TABLESPACE "UNDOTBS1" DATAFILE '/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/undotbs01.dbf' SIZE 200M REUSE AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 5120K MAXSIZE UNLIMITED
CHARACTER SET WE8ISO8859P1
NATIONAL CHARACTER SET AL16UTF16
LOGFILE GROUP 1 ('/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/redo01.log') SIZE 10240K,
GROUP 2 ('/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/redo02.log') SIZE 10240K,
GROUP 3 ('/usr/oracle/OraHome1/oradata/aultdb1/test/redo03.log') SIZE 10240K
USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY "password" USER SYSTEM IDENTIFIED BY "password";
Oracle10g sysaux
With the new SYSAUX tablespace, Oracle comes closer to providing all the needed tablespaces for a truly OFA-compliant database right out of the box. With just one CREATE DATABASE command we can specify the SYSTEM tablespace, the TEMPORARY tablespace, the AUXSYS tablespace, the default UNDO tablespace, and the redo logs.
Of course, with the Oracle Managed Files option you can create an entire database with a single command, but the database created is not suitable for production use and is not OFA-compliant.
The SYSAUX tablespace is required in all new 10g databases. Only the SYSAUX tablespace datafile location is specified. Oracle specifies the remainder of the tablespace properties including:
online
permanent
read write
extent managment local
segment space management auto
If a datafile is specified for the SYSTEM tablespace, then one must be specified for the SYSAUX tablespace as well. If one is not specified, then the CREATE DATABASE command will fail. The only exception is for an Oracle Managed File system.
During any update of a database to Oracle Database 10g, a SYSAUX tablespace must be created or the upgrade will fail. The SYSAUX tablespace has the same security profile as the SYSTEM tablespace. However, loss of the SYSAUX tablespace will not result in a database crash, only the functional loss of the schemas it contains.
Can I drop SysAux?
DROP DATAFILE

What is the use of "Organization" and "UserGroup" in Oracle Identity Mgr

Hi
I have created an user and provisioned it with an EBS instance.
Can anyone explain what is the use of "Organization" or "User Group" in Oracle Identity Manager?
What are the basic concepts of having them?
It seems that "Organization" is simply used for categorization of Users in OIM into various orgs and sub-orgs with the aim to create a logical hierarchy of users.
Anything more?
The use of "UserGroups" i find is only for the application of Access Policies and nothing else.
Please modify/add to the concepts.
Thanks
debashis

You can use Organizations to seperate groups of users and limit which resources are available to the users in that organization. You can also create administrative groups over those organizations.
Groups can contain membership rules to automatically place users into them based on attributes from their profile. You can also create access policies to apply to those groups to provision and restrict provisioning of resources. Groups can also be beneficial if you have department groups and such to be able to quickly view all the users who are part of it. Groups are also used during attestation and can be made process owners of the attestation tasks. And Groups can also be used for assignment of tasks such as approvals and provisioning tasks. Groups are also how permissions are assigned throughout OIM.
I'm sure there are many more uses, but this is a few of them.

What is the use of Multiple source in Logical Table under BMM Layer?

what is the use of Multiple source in Logical Table under BMM Layer?
thanks in advance

Or more generally speaking:
To create a "logical table" consisting of multiple "physical tables"...hence the names. It's the backbone of the whole BI server concept and the way the rpd handles the requests.
I.e.: how would you otherwise proceed for making an analyzable table from SAP, Teradata, Oracle and a flat file with no full change-access to all the data sources?

What is the difference btw Oracle bpm 10gr3 vs albpm 6.0.5 version

What is the difference btw Oracle bpm 10gr3 vs albpm 6.0.5 version
Are the build number common to them?

Projects built in ALBPM 6.0 can be used directly in Oracle BPM 10g, but the reverse is not true.
It's sometimes thought that Oracle BPM 10g was just a relabeling of the predecessor BEA product ALBPM. This is not the case.
In Studio, standards are better supported:
<li> By default, new processes now use horizontal swim-lanes. You can change the swim-lanes orientation individually for each process. You can define the default orientation for each project and for your Studio installation.
<li> It uses more sophisticated BPMN icons. BPMN is the new default process diagram theme. BPMN constructs now include Gateways (AND, OR (new in 10g), XOR, Multiple Instance (previously Split-N)). A new Timer event was added. Loop conditions for automatic activities and groups were added.
<li> Studio now supports Mac/OS 10.4 Tiger and Mac/OS 10.5 Leopard.
<li> Studio now supports Windows Vista.
<li> Studio now supports CVS and Subversion version control systems.
<li> The Studio UI incorporates Eclipse 3.3 improvements such as the following:
<li> New Minimize/Maximize behavior: When minizing view stacks in Studio, the view icons are placed on the nearest trim area. If a view is maximized, all other views are minimized, rather than hidden.
<li> Interactive tasks provide a new "previewable" property. The new Application Display Panel and Task Execution Panel of WorkSpace automatically start the execution of previewable tasks without locking the process instance. Enabled by default for Dashboards.
<li> New type of Activity: Time Activity. A process instance that arrives to this activity just sits idle until a timed event occurs.
<li> Option Process Notification Immediately on Termination Wait activities has been deprecated. Now both the Wait activity and the first activity in the interruption flow always execute in the same transaction.
<li> Although I'm not wild about it, there is an auto-layout feature re-arranges all visual elements of a process diagram automatically, minimizing superpositions and aligning the flow as much as possible. Only available for processes with horizontal lane orientation.
<li> New process property (Greedy Execution Mode) indicates the Process Execution Engine to collapse contiguous automatic tasks in a single transaction. This mode of execution provides better performance for some processes. Disabled by default.
<li> A new Process-Level debugger allows developers to introduce breakpoints and debug complete processes running in Studio. When the execution reaches a breakpoint, the Engine pauses and Studio's debugging view appears. You can inspect variables, add new breakpoints, resume and continue execution.
User Interface
<li> The Business Analyst and Business Architect profiles provide a simpler set of menu options and toolbars.
<li> New editor for BPM Object Presentations. It's easier to use, provides a WYSIWYG drag and drop interface, improved CSS support and a new Drag & Drop toolbar.
<li> You can now interrupt a running Simulation started with the Run to the End button.
<li> New BETWEEN operator added to Business Rules editor (on both Studio and WorkSpace). This operator works with Time and numeric types.
<li> The Documentation View now displays read-only documentation for the standard Fuego.* components.
<li> New on-line help book Oracle BPM Components Reference provides reference documentation for the standard Fuego.* components. Only available for the developer profile.
<li> This version introduces Project Dependency, which allows you to re-use components and role definitions from a common base project.
In the WorkSpace:
<li> WorkSpace has an edit mode which allows users to change and save the configuration and layout of panels.
<li> A new tabbed interface allows you to define multiple pages, each with its own set of panels. You can export the layout configuration to an XML file and re-import it on a different environment or as a different user. Administrators can define layouts for all users in a certain Role.
<li> You can export the data in the Worklist panel to a PDF or CSV
<li> You can see an OOTB chart representation of the distribution of items in the Worklist panel.
<li> WorkSpace includes the following new panels: Task Panel: Renders the execution of interactive tasks within the panel, instead of using the default modal dialogs. Dashboard Display Panel: Provides a way to display Dashboards within a Panel. View Chart Panel: Provides predefined graphical reports about process performance, work items distributions and workload. Application Panel: This panel contains an application (the execution of a Global Interactive). Applications can respond to work item selections or run independently.
<li> The user can now do re-assignment operations on multiple instances at once.
<li> The Business Rules editor shows additional auditing information, including who and when a rule was modified.
<li> WorkSpace now (optionally) stores session-specific information as client-side cookies. This allows load-balancing on a cluster environment without affecting the user experience.
Integration:
<li> New timeout property added to external resources of type HTTP Server. Use this setting to control timeouts on web service invocations.
<li> Authentication information added to external resources of type JMS (Java Messaging System)
<li> Processes exposed as Web Services can now provide a runProcess operation, which synchronously executes the complete process (from begin to end). Only meaningful on fully automated processes.
Enterprise:
<li> New Ant tasks to rebuild the Oracle BPM web applications for container-security.
<li> Configuration Wizard adds option Generic JNDI to the list of available LDAP servers. When using this option, you must provide a custom configuration file defining the mapping of object classes, attributes and filters. This new feature is also the new mechanism for integrating with AquaLogic Interaction 6.5, replacing the old Identity Service.
<li> Configuration Wizard can now be run without user interaction ("silent mode"). You specify all configuration values in an XML file.
<li> Oracle BPM client applications (including WorkSpace, PAPI-WS and custom PAPI apps) are now able to connect to multiple environments (BPM Directories) simultaneously.
<li> Added Sybase as a new provider for the Engine database and BPM Directory database.
<li> More information added for auditing of Business Rules, including who and when a rule was modified.
<li> Updated bundled JDBC drivers to their latest version.
<li> The Engine now logs warning messages when it detects rogue threads. A new preference allows the administrator to disable automatic re-starts when the Maximum Number of Rogue Component Executions is reached. In addition, in the case of an automatic re-start the Engine now logs a complete thread dump.
<li> Simplified procedures for deploying BPM WorkSpace on WebLogic Portal. BPM Process Administrator now generates the WorkSpace EAR file as a WLP library module.
<li> Authentication information added to external resources of type JMS (Java Messaging System).

What is the use of Node Manager?

OBIEE Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.5
I have started up the WebLogic server which delivers the WL Server Admin Console as well as the Fusion Middleware Control.
I have ignored NodeManager. It hasnt been started.
What is the use of NodeManager?
Oracle tells us:
Note: In order to start the Managed Server using the WebLogic Server Administration Console, the Node Manager must be running.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E21043_01/bi.1111/e10541/components.htm
But my Manged Server is running ok - I can check http://<host>:7001/console and its ok.
So why do I need to bother with NodeManager?
I only have WLS and OHS installed - no BI instance.

Answers inline:
As I have installed weblogic server 10.3.5 on windows. while am starting it using cmd am getting two ips as
1**.*.... for weblogic server one is (channel default 4... .. and one is default 1) kindly explain.
- It doesn't generate any IP. If you have installed successfully, weblogic will run on your system and it's ip will remain same. You can access it using your systems'IP:portnumber
Also tell as I have to use cmd for starting servers how can i use unix commands for the same??
- You have installed on windows so unix command won't work for you. You can either start by going into services window in windows or start using command by going to path weblogichome\domains\domainname\bin. Execute startWebLogic.cmd
Also explain what is the use of node manager and weblogic scripting tool which are also installed in the system.
- Node manager is used for communication bentween two or more servers in a domain.
As am looking to install OIM 11g so kindly tell what are all the things I need to know about weblogic so that i can learn OIM easily.
- To install OIM, install weblogic, install oracle database. Use RCU utilities to create database and then install SOA, OIM and configure them. You can get all kinds of guides and steps for OIM 11g r2 here:
