  Hi guru,.
  
  I'm new on ODI and have hit a problem with that I hope someone could help me!
  
  I have a chart / MS SQL data store (2005), I would use ODI to produce a .txt or .csv file output. I have looked at the documentation, but I couldn't find an obvious way to do it - can someone please advise how this can be done?
  
  Thank you very much

  Hey Joe,

  Here is a link to a 'for example Oracle' explaining how to load a flat file:
  http://www.Oracle.com/WebFolder/technetwork/tutorials/OBE/FMW/ODI/odi_11g/odi_project_ff-to-FF/odi_project_flatfile-to-flatfile.htm

  You just need to change the LKM to choose one for MS SQL.

• REF Cursor creating CSV files

  Hi guys
  
  I am writing a package to create several different CVS files of the database.
  I created a procedure for each files CVS to be created within the package.
  I set the cursor for each file to each intervention.
  Read slider and concatenate all the fields in a large chain of recording and write it to the file using the UTL_FILE utility.
  
  Is there a way I can create a common procedure and pass all other cases, file_name as a parameter and concatenate all the fields and records and write it to the file? I think the use of the REF cursor, but the problem is the cursor query is different for each file. Some files has 2 columns and some 200 columns.
  No idea how to make this work for any format?
  
  Your help will be very appreciated.
  
  Thanks and greetings

  The procedure allows for the header and the data to separate files if necessary. Just by specifying the file name "header" will put the header and the data in a single file.

  Adapt to the exit of styles and different types of data are needed.

• I created CSV file and want to read a particular item in the file of my vi

  I use file read for the first time and created this vi. But I can't read part 4 of the file, so I can show the image given of the value 4. Could someone check my VI and tell me where I was wrong

  (1) you must specify the delimiter as a comma.

  How can I get around the commas in the text?
  
  Published by: cinnamon on April 4, 2011 08:07

  There is a way to do it, but it depends on a few assumptions, and (b) you have to jump through hoops to do it.

  First of all, this only works if there is no comma request_id, user_id or facility_id. (if there is, then you're stuck, because there is no way to determine which commas are part of data and those that are separators.)

  Second, he must know if there are any particular character - say | -who never appears in the detail.

  If you can do both of these assumptions, then what you have to do is:
  (1) create an array that consists of a single VARCHAR2 column large enough to hold longer line of your input data.
  (2) to import your data into this table.
  (3) replace the first five commas in each row of the table with. (or whatever your "unused" character).
  For example:

  UPDATE temp_data_table
  SET row_text = REPLACE(SUBSTR(row_text, 1, INSTR(row_text, ',', 1, 5)), ',', '|') || SUBSTR(row_text,  INSTR(row_text, ',', 1, 5) + 1);
  COMMIT;
  

  (4) write a SQL INSERT command to build your target table according to the values separated by the | characters.

• Configure vswitches from a .csv file - problem

  I have a script that works very well for the installation of my virtual past by using the updatevirtualswitch method. (Thanks to LucD, see here: ) http://communities.VMware.com/message/1556669#1556669 )

  I now want to go further and to feed my script with variables from a .csv file.

  It works fine for all, with the exception of the definition of vmnic. Description of the problem:

  Excerpt from my .csv file:

  lannics; dmznic1; dmznic2; dmznic3; storagenics; vmotionnics;

  @("vmnic0"); @("vmnic1", "vmnic2");

  Then import the settings from the csv file, example:

  $lannics = $parameterfile.dmznic1

  Now, if I check what's in $dmznic1, I have the good: @("vmnic1", "vmnic2")

  But it seems to be a string, not a true table. Therefore, I can not pass it to my updatevirtualswitch function:

  function standardvswitch {}

  Param ($esx, $vs, [string []] $dmznic1)

  ....

  $ns. UpdateVirtualSwitch ($vs, $vsSpec)

  }

  So the question is: how could I get my .csv file information, so that it can be used for a definition of vmnic compatible with the UpdateVirtualSwitch method?

  Thanks for your help or ideas!

  I've done a few tests more and saw that my previous solution does not work. "But one that follows). I'll try to explain how it works. In the .csv file, a semicolon is used as a field separator. This means that you can use a comma in a field to separate the members of the group. The Import-CSV cmdlet reads the .csv file and - separator "," parameter instructs the cmdlet that a semicolon is the field delimiter. The output of the Import-CSV cmdlet is piped in a ForEach-Object cmdlet. In the scriptblock ForEach-Object according to the value of the dmznic1 property string is shared by the comma, so each string before, between and after the comma will become a member of separate table. This table is assigned to the dmznic1 property. Loop loop through all the members of the Group and displays them on separate lines. So you can see that it is really a picture.

  Import-CSV -Path LanNics.CSV -Delimiter ";" | `
  ForEach-Object {
    $_.dmznic1 = ($_.dmznic1).split(",")
    for ($i=0;$i -lt $_.dmznic1.length; $i++) {
      Write-Output $_.dmznic1[$i]
    }
  }
  

  See the attached screenshot for output.

  I think that this solution is more beautiful that create a different column for each vmnic because in my solution you don't have to know in advance how many cards you have.

• cannot paste copied from CSV files online entered into the Excel worksheet (chatted with Cedric_L on 03/05/10 at approximately 2.30 CST but I got disconnected. not got an answer...)

  Here is the transcript of a chat with Firefox community member zzxcon may 3/10

  Now you are chatting with Firefox community member Cedric_L
  Cedric_L: Hello
  Cedric_L: what happens when you try to download a .csv file?
  Seegal: Hello
  Seegal: it is not copy
  Cedric_L: how you try to copy?
  Seegal: pls bear with me, I'm a slow typist. Just copy the selected text
  Biolizard joined the conversation.
  Cedric_L: ok - you choose what text?
  Seegal: I reconcile my checkbook (worksheet in this way). I copy my bank acc online items and paste it in the worksheet
  Seegal: I use Firefox 2.0.0.19. Have no problem to do so.
  Cedric_L: what version of Mac OS X?
  Seegal: in the new version nothing happens when trying to paste - just doesn't add up
  Cedric_L: Firefox 2.0.0.x is no longer supported and has not been supported by more than a year
  Cedric_L: paste into Excel from Firefox?
  Seegal: Sorry, I'm early... 2.0.0.19
  Seegal: Yes. I opened my bank acc in Firefox
  Cedric_L: what version of Excel?
  Cedric_L: it would really help if you could tell me step by step what you do.
  Seegal: first re: your previous question: is OS 10.4.11
  Seegal: on Excell: it' ACE 2004 version - the lasat one product for Macs. The specific version is 11.3.7
  Seegal: so I opened my ACC. to bank online in Firfox (my main browser). I copy the last entry in the account and paste in my Excel spreadsheet.
  Cedric_L: so, you copy directly from the web page without having to download a CSV file?
  Seegal: what do you mean by CSV file download? I could export to the https://chat-support.mozilla.com:9091/webchat/getimage? image = sendmessage & workgroup=support%40workgroup.chat-support.mozilla.comFirefox to the CSV file, but the other way around?
  Cedric_L: you copy your bank statement directly from the web site to Excel by using the Clipboard?
  Seegal: so do not use the Clipboard. It is a mac. There is no need to do so. In the PC, it would be Yes.
  Cedric_L: I need to know the exact steps that you deliver to bring in excel
  Cedric_L: and I need to know what exactly goes wrong in the latest version of Firefox.
  Seegal: you have a mac it with Firefox and Excel? It is very easy to reproduce. Imagine you open access to online banking, select a few entries, click on 'copy', to make your already open Excel worksheet and click "Paste". That's all!
  Cedric_L: when this happens, do you have cryptic code pasted into Excel?
  Seegal: as I said before: in all newer versions starting with 3.0 when I go to Excel to 'stick' of my bank acc, nothing happens. It does not stick. No, I don't get a cryptic code pasted, just NOTHING.

  Cedric_L: what happens if you paste into MS Word instead?
  Seegal: haven't tried, most likely the formatting would be lost. Tried with an another el Exc spreadsheet-it lost all the formatting and pasted as continuous text.

  This has happened

  Each time Firefox opened

  Is copy of the cat above. THIS MAC OS X. In the older versions before 3.0 I could copy the CSV file on the site Web Ibank VAC) and paste it directly to my spreadheet Excel reconciling my account.

  There is a known issue with Mac Office versions prior to 2007 version that results in release of Clipboard does not correctly supported. Firefox 3.0, being a more recent application, using the new format for the HTML Clipboard data. Unfortunately, Office 2004 and Office X do not support this.

  If you upgrade to MS Office 2007, it should work as expected.

• Segmentation of a huge CSV file for easier analysis

  I have a CSV file that contains 3 columns: time, voltage and current.  This data covers a period of 12 days with 1 ms between the samples and the size of the file is 53.4 GB!

  I use LabVIEW to chunk this file into pieces easier to manage for analysis using spreadsheet File.vi reading and write a File.vi spreadsheet and my method works very well... to a point.  Here's a snippet of what I do:

  

  I use the "start offset reading" of entry to reading worksheet File.vi inch my way through the file, but since it is a type of data I32 it rolls more and VI out errors.  I think I have to do, is remove pieces of the main file that I read and write in their respective smaller file, but the method to do this is me stumping.  Y at - it suggestions on how I could pull this off while using the worksheet vi file (to avoid reinventing the wheel as much as possible)?

  Some ideas: I'm playing:

  1. of iteratively, delete data and reset to '0' marker in the file (reading data in order from the present to the future).

  2. start at the END of the file (i.e. read data from future to present) and iterative set the smaller size, eliminating the data blocks that I will.

  The simplest solution would probably be to modify the existing worksheet screws (or a copy you make of them) - you did, they use 32-bit values to track the location, but if you look inside the screw, you should see that the actual file functions use 64-bit values (the values of 32 bits in the functions are actually used for backward compatibility). I haven't looked closely, but my guess is that you can simply change this option to be 64 bit and that your code should then be able to go through the entire file.

• Question: Can't create ZIP files in Windows 7 Home Premium

  So, basically, here's the deal.  Whenever I try to make/create a file ZIP containing separate files or even containing a single file, I get an error message.

  "Could not complete the operation.  Access is denied. "

  I am the administrator and I should have complete and total control right?  I need to create folders zip for the work, but the only way I can do right now is with WinRAR, which works very well, but I don't want to pay $40 more for something that I should be able to do that through Windows.

  Anyone have thoughts or ideas on why I can't make ZIP (compressed) files?

  Help!

  in regards to the third task... There is no merge option when you right click on it from the desktop.

  I guess only he saved for you with the .txt extension. Just rename the .reg file, but...

  On the previous message and the 2nd task, try this:

  1. Press the Windows key + R > type regedit and press enter
  2. Go to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\FileExts\.zip\OpenWithProgids
  3. In the right pane: right-click on the WinRAR.ZIP > delete
  4. You can also check these two keys:
     • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.zip\OpenWithProgids (there should be only (default) and CompressedFolder )
     • HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\.zip\UserChoice (this should not exist)
  5. Close the registry editor and restart your system.

• VM list name and the cluster that it flows in a CSV file

  Hello

  I want to have a created CSV file that will conaitn 2 fields: vm_name, vm_custer

  Which means, I want to list the name of the virtual machine and the cluster is running in a CSV file.

  Here is the code I wrote:

  #! / usr/bin/perl - w
  use strict;
  Use Data::Dumper;
  use VMware::VIRuntime;
  My % opts = (data center = > {})
  Type = > "s =",
  help = > 'enter the name of the data center. "
  required = > 1,
  });
  OPTS::add_options (%OPTS);
  OPTS::parse();
  OPTS::Validate();
  Util::connect;
  "open (my $FH, ' > ', 'final.csv') or die" cannot opne final.csv: $! » ;
  print $FH 'VM_Cluster, VM_Name, \n ";
  my $dc = Opts::get_option ("data center");
  My $dc_view = Vim::find_entity_view (view_type = > 'Data center',)
  filter = > {name = > $dc});
  My $clu_views = Vim::find_entity_views (view_type = > "ComputeResource")
  begin_entity = > $dc_view);
  my $cluster foreach (@$clu_views)
  {
  My $clu_name = $cluster-> name;
  my $hosts = $cluster-> host;
  foreach (@$hosts)
  {
  My $host_hash_ref = Vim::get_view (mo_ref = > $_);
  My $vm_view = $host_hash_ref-> virtual machine;
  foreach (@$vm_view)
  {
  My $vm_hash_ref = Vim::get_view (mo_ref = > $_);
  My $vm_name = $vm_hash_ref-> name;
  $FH print $clu_name. ", ".  $vm_name. », «. "\n" unless $clu_name = ~ m/0bld0 /; "
  }
  }
  }
  Close ($FH);
  Util::disconnect;

  Now, I get the CSV file created as I wanted to, but the question is, there are 3500 + VMs in vCenter and this script side took 50 minutes to complete. It is therefore a huge performance impact. Also, I don't like the concept of 3 layers netsted foreach loops.

  Therefore, there is an effective way to get this information?

  Thank you.

  Your welcome.  It could be made faster, but the complexity of the additional code is probably not worth if the runtime you have now is enough.  No doubt, you can add additional data to your report without too slow.

  You can also find the script works faster or slower depending on what is happening in your virtual center system.

  Thanks for the update on the success!
