XI 3.0 : Import/Export of IB: Design Objects via Filesystem

Failure: "You are not permitted to delete any objects since the software component cannot be changed"
Today I've tried out the import/export functionality of the integration builder design.
Therefor I've exported a whole SoftwareComponentVersion into a file and after that reimported it.
Everything works fully correct. But now, when i try to delete this SoftwarComponentVersion or any object within, i face the warning: "You are not permitted to delete any objects since the software component cannot be changed" and i am not able to delete it.
Have you any experience dealing this problem?
Thx for your answer!

Hi Friends,
I have try to do the same stuff but i could not see the objects imported into swcv.
I did as follows:
1. Imported swcv from sld.
2. created a namespace
4. created some design objects.
5. activated the changed list.
6. Exported the swcv in tpz file
7. removed all the objects from swcv.
8. imported the design objects from previously exported tpz file by copying it into the import folder at xiserver.
9. it says objects are successfully imported and i can see the file is transfered from import folder to importedFiles folder with timestamp suffix.
but i am still unable to see these objects into the swcv.
Where i have done mistake or should i need to do something more as i wanted to test this export/import feature having only one xiserver.

Import/Export Button in designer grayed out

Import/Export button in designer is grayed out for one user. it is not his security setting, since he doesn't have this issue using other machines.
I am wondering what is wrong on his machine? Could any body help us.
Thanks

Hi,
It seems that there might be some problem with the specific machine.
In order to be sure, just login as an administrator onto the machine, and check to be sure, whether it is an issue with rights.
However, if it is not the issue with the rights, then we can just reinstall Designer and check whether the issue has been resolved or not.
To do this, just go into your control panel and in the Add & Remove programs, click BusinessObjects and click on change, and then select Modify, expand the client components ,and select Desktop Intelligence : "Entire Feature will be unavailable" and continue with the uninstallation.
The next time around, perform the same steps, and then select DeskI and "Entire Feature will be installed on local hard drive" , and finish the installation.
This would reinstall the designer.

Import/export workflows and other objects

Hi!
We are developing many workflows in a developing machine and eventually we are going to deploy them in production. What is the recomended way to do this? We cannot just dump the whole database... I could use the BPE to save each and every modified workflow in development as a file, and import them in production, opening every file through the BPE of the prod env. This seems a quite manual process for such a common task. Is there any other way?
Thanks!

hi guys,
even i have a similar requirment. can anyone give a quick solution or refrence to some documentation regarding this
thanx in adv

Getting an error while importing/exporting the universe from my BO Designer

Hi,
   I am facing a issue while importing/exporting the universe from my BO Designer to the Server.The error is mentioned below.
   'File Repository Server Input is down'
   Once I click the OK button on this error message, it displays the message
   'Could not import the Universe'.
I tried the check the status of the File Repository Server (Ouput and Input) and also the of the Root Directory on the Physical Server and also my machine.They all have read-write access.
Installed Version of the Universe Designer Client: Business Object XI Release 2 SP3
Installed Version of the BO Enterprise Server: Business Object XI Release 2 SP2
Can you please help me to resolve the issue

Hi,
   The step you have mentioned may not be applicable to my issue as one of my colleagues can import/export the universe from the same server
The second thing is that a DB2 Client v9 is installed on both mine and my colleagues system.The Designer software can recognise the DB2 drivers on his system but it cannot recognise the same drivers on my system.I even checked the versions of the BO software installed on his and my system and they are same.
The only difference is that his machine is a Windows XP Machine and mine is a Network Desktop.
Will any of the above two things will affect the operation of the BO Designer.
Thanks

Designer Import/Export Tools

Hello all,
After installing designer 6i im given the option to install Import & Export Tools which i think are based on oracle 8.0 librarary files.
If i intend to install oracle 8i EE after designer, can i ignore the installation of the 8.0 tools or are these needed in addition to oracle 8i database ?
If i choose to install 8.0 import and export tools, can these be installed in same home as designer (default home) or same home as oracle 8i (ora8ihome) or should these be in an entirely different home of their own.
thanks in advance.

Hi,
Since the Repository is on an 8i database, but the client is on an 8.0 database, you need to have imp.exe and exp.exe from 8i (and their associated NLS files and DLLs) available on your path to use REPADM to install the Repository or do imports / exports.
The default client install of Oracle 8i DOES NOT include the Import / Export tools by default, but you can include them if you do a custom install. The option to install Import / Export tools during the Designer 6i installer will install an 8i client that includes the import / export tools.
N.b. If your Repository is on the same machine as the client, I suspect the database installation WILL include import/export, so you shouldn't need to install the client separately from the Designer installer.

If I use the "release transfer" function of IR, the new created version can be export correctly.
I've tried to create a new SC and SWCV, it can be export & import correctly.
Also, if copied all of the objects from a namespace to a new namespace, and delete the old one, that SWCV can be export correctly.
Anyone knows what's wrong within my IR?
Thanks.

Hi,
While Importing some components has missed and the Exception is unable to handle it. Is it possible for you to Import again and check the table space is sufficient.

Questions on Subviews and Import/Export in Data Modeler v3 EA1.

I have a few questions about the capabilities of Data Modeler v3 EA1:
1) Is it possible to rename subviews? Would like more meaningful names then Relational_x - Subview_x.
2) Is it possible to save documents at subview level?
3) Is it possible to import/export subsets of data?
4) Having problems importing Erwin 7 .xml file, is there known problems with this import?
Judy

Hi Judy,
1) To rename a subview just right click on it in the browser tree and select "Properties". In the properties dialog change the name and click OK button.
2) You can save a subview as new Data Modeler design - from the File menu select Export -> To Data Modeling Design. In the newly opened dialog select the subview you want to export and click OK button.
3) After saving a subview as new design (see answer #2) it can be imported in some other design (File -> Import -> Data Modeler Design).
4) What kind of problems do you have with import of Erwin 7.* xml file?
Regards,
Ivan

Import Design Objects in Service Builder

I am able to export and import configuration objects in Configuration Integration Builder from the Tool menu.
I am able to export Design Objects in Enterprise Service Builder.
I am also able to import the Design Objects in Enterprise Service Builder, however, I am not able to find the imported objects.
Although system says the import is successful, but I am not seeing the imported objects in left side panel.
There is nothing in Change Lists either.
My question is where is the imported objects and how could I find them?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Jimmy,
This is because of the version conflicts in yuour target system.If you try to edit something in Integration Repository in the target system and try to transfer you will get version conflicts.
Please check if this is the error.

Naveen.

Import/Export tools has not been installed

Hello,
I've isntalled client of Designer 6i rel.2 The whole installation has passed correctly up to the moment when the installer for 8i import/export tools has to be invoked (the setup write that install tool will be run to install 8i i/e tools and the java-based instaler should appears). The installer do not wake up and tools are not installed. Cannot import repository from previous installation and moreover (AND MORE IMPORTANT) when running Net8 Conf assistant and Net8 Client configuration it finish with GPF ("Program made an illegal operation and will be terminate")
Any sugestions?

Import/Export wizard auto-generates all columns as DATE

Hi
I'm trying to use the Import/Export Wizard as I used to, as a handy tool to figure out what a series of T-SQL statements (in an SSIS package) is doing - or, if I'm lucky, what on earth the original dev
intended them to do.
Version: SQL 2014 64-bit running on Win 7 64-bit
The code is pretty dreadful:
SELECT DISTINCT on one set of column names,
join this set to another table but not on exactly the same set of column names,
embedded (SELECT MAX(bla) FROM SameTable WHERE [match to outer set on another set of columns] GROUP BY [hey, yet another set of columns!]) inside the SELECT column list...
and it all goes to a nasty #Tmp, which is then abused with further bad code further down.
Imp/Exp is always handy to quickly get the intermediate results into an auto-created real table, so I can figure out exactly what the effect of this is. I use it to export from the database back to the same database, but to a persisted table.
This time (first time with SQL2014) it's not working. The source is "write a query" (paste the actual query). The destination I set to a new table. The auto-generation of the new table creates every column as type
date. Not surprisingly, this doesn't work, as the original data is mostly not of
date time.
Looks like a bug. Any idea of a workaround or fix?
thanks!

Sorry, but I think you're still not getting what I'm saying.
This is not a production SSIS package design, but a quick'n'nasty diagnosis technique I'm used to using:
- Find some SQL in an existing query/script that I'm trying to debug
- Paste it into Import/Export wizard as a source
- Wizard creates a new table for the result - I then have the results persisted for examination, comparison with the results from refactored code, etc.
And I can't even put suitable CAST/CONVERT statements in, because the wizard is mis-identifying the
input column data types, with no way to change them. It's somehow thinking that every column in the input (the SQL query) is of type
date(500), when the columns are obviously not of this type.

1) Copied the .tpz file into import folder.
2) then using the menu tool->import design Objects i selected my .tpz file
3) Got the following msg.
Import source XI3_0_TEST_2.0_of_xxx.com-nsps.tpz imported successfully. All imported design objects integrated successfully 3 import object(s) imported successfully
Import file moved to importedFiles\XI3_0_TEST_2.0_of_xxx.com-nsps_2007-02-13_02-41.tpz
But i was not able to see the imported namespace.

I m not trying to move it form DEV to QA.
I m exporting the namespace from DEV. say http://abc.com/xi/test of SWCV Test of abc.com.
and then i m trying to import it back to Same DEV box.
I m getting the sucessfully imported message but not able to see the namespace.
I tried deleting the namespace after exporting and then importing.
But still i can't see it.
However in cache notification and Tools->Find Transfer it is showing that it is sucessfully imported.
I think it might be the issue with active version... can u help me out.

i m not changing the name of anything. i got the above message as well, but not able to see the imported object.

Import Export Healthcare Endpoints

Hi,
I am currently exploring the healthcare pack for the Oracle SOA Suite Integration. While doing several POC's I often come across the need to somehow import/export the created healthcare endpoints onto some other SOA server, but everytime I have to create them on the different server. Is there a way to import/export the endpoints across different SOA servers?
Thanks!

Hi,
It seems that there might be some problem with the specific machine.
In order to be sure, just login as an administrator onto the machine, and check to be sure, whether it is an issue with rights.
However, if it is not the issue with the rights, then we can just reinstall Designer and check whether the issue has been resolved or not.
To do this, just go into your control panel and in the Add & Remove programs, click BusinessObjects and click on change, and then select Modify, expand the client components ,and select Desktop Intelligence : "Entire Feature will be unavailable" and continue with the uninstallation.
The next time around, perform the same steps, and then select DeskI and "Entire Feature will be installed on local hard drive" , and finish the installation.
This would reinstall the designer.

Audition Import / Export to/from other DAWs

Well its done!
AATranslator is finally finished.
http://www.aatranslator.com.au/ is where you will find it.
Its been 3 months in the making and as I mentioned previously its not donationware but it is a fully functional demo only limitation is the number of tracks and 'clips'.
Many thanks to John Lundsten from the UK for the idea of this project, for his tireless efforts testing the application and for his insight as well as the user guide. Thanks also to Adrian Connelly for additional programming efforts and the interface and also dstDean from this forum for additional testing and encouragement.
Those who have supported me in the past (as at the time of this post) through donating for any of my previous applications are entitled to $50usd off the price for every application they have donated to me in the past. For some that equals a free copy! Never let it be said that I don't appreciate your support!
This application is not for everyone but certainly for anyone who needs to move their projects from one DAW to another it is certainly worth a look.
It definitely the only application which currently allows you to import/export from Adobe Audition!
There are many other DAWS in our sights and significant work has already been completed interfacing to Reaper project files and OpenTL files. These will appear in a free upgrade in the not too distant future.
Enjoy.....

Welcome aboard!
There are a number of points to address here:-
"I presume there is no back up facility for your Adobe Audition® session file like Premier Pro has with Auto Save."
That is correct but even with applications with 'auto save' there is no substitute for regular backup of both your audio files, session file & audition settings.
"To fix this problem I was thinking about SESBackup (Donate) so this never happens again. Does the product work like the auto save facility in PRO (i.e. the session) or does it record & save everything i.e. the sound files again as well into a specific folder of your choice."
SESBackup only targets adobe session files (either singularly or ALL of your session files). It is handy to easily back them (or it) up before recommencing work on a project or as soon as you are finished for the day. It does not backup your audio material.
MediaSweeper will isolate and seperate the unused files from your project and move them to another location so that you only backup the material that is actually in your session.
AuditionFX will help you backup your Adobe Audition settings
"More importantly I need to combine these two sessions together and presume there is no facility for you to do this Adobe as well."
As I recall AA1.5 has the facility to 'append' other AA1.5 sessions.
"I have just read this thread and I am hoping AATranslator can achieve this. If translator does do this what is the best way to achieve a great result without losing any information."
As far as Audition is concerned AAtranslator was designed with AA3 in mind. AATranslator can append sessions either from Audition, Samplitude, Cubase, Nuendo, Reaper, etc but it would need to be converted to an AA3 xml file at present.
But as i mentioned before AA1.5 it (as I recall) has that 'append' function built in.
Remember "save early and save often".
BTW You can download and try all of those applications and they all come with documentation.

Import/Export uses odiparam.bat for work/master Repository

When I do a import/export, the command appears to use the odiparam.bat file to pickup the work/master repository connections. This makes sense for the export, but the import has an optional parameter for the work repository. From what I can tell, this parameter is ignored (or am I doing something wrong). Regardless, of whether or not it is used, how would ODI know the connection (user/password) information if it was used. This would seem to indicate that the user WAS picked up from the odiparam.bat file.
Am I thinking about this correctly or have I missed something?

How are you trying to do the import/export?
If you are importing the obejcts in designer - it will use the credentials you specified when you connected.

How do we import design objects ?

Hello friends,
I have a s/w component with a namespace in it containing all my Design objects in the Integration repository(Design). There is an option called Export which i assume exports entire namespace along with the design objects within it to a tpz file.
now i want to know is whether i can import this tpz file again into Xi, if yes then how because when i tried importing it (Tools-> Import Design Objects...) , it says No Object Found.
I also want to know is that whether i can import this Namespace on some other XI deployed on some other machine.
Thanks !!!

Hi Rohit,
now i want to know is whether i can import this tpz file again into Xi, if yes then how because when i tried importing it (Tools-> Import Design Objects...) , it says No Object Found.
Yes, when you say TOOLS --> IMPORT , you should be able to import your exported namespace into the IR. Just make sure, you are giving the correct TPZ file to be imported into XI.
I also want to know is that whether i can import this Namespace on some other XI deployed on some other machine.
Yes , you surely can and that is the exact reason why the export and import actually exist. One option that is normally used when you want to migrate your objects from Dev to QA to Prod and so on is this import and export.
