• OBIEE reporting to users not OBIEE that are external to the SMTP server

  Hi all
  
  Nazza salvation,
  
  Would you please help me how send you ISID signals to users not OBIEE (external mails)?
  I configured the mail server and able to send reports for internal mail.
  
  I followed the following steps as mensioned in all blogs:
  1. I created a table with default column d called SA_SYSTEM_USER mensioned.
  2. any in the physical layer
  3 creates a view for model (Dual) table with column "DUMMY".
  4 joined these tables of towing made MODEL and SA_SYSTEM_USER as a Dimension about join a MODEL Email.
  5 renamed columnsfor as mensioned in Bolgs presentation table.
  6 restart the servers.
  7. I noticed the mail of the system and the system delivery profile created with a single email id (where are the other my table SA_SYSTEM_USER email ID?)
  8. but as written in Articles he never sends emails to external e-mails for example [email protected] (this is the email from existng in SA_SYSTEM_USER)
  
  I need an urgent solution please help me...
  
  Thank you very much...

  No, no, nothing is more required SMTP side if his performance of the iBots for IDS in-house.

  If you set up SA_SYSTEM correctly, you can send reports to users non-obiee as account gmail etc.

  Try steps below...

  1. create and save a report using your logon fields and the SA_SYSTEM EMAIL that contains the people you want to send the report. Or by email or logon information must be an OBIEE user that exists in the RPD.
  2. create an iBot and under the general tab, the visibility of the non custom data value and run as an administrator account.
  3. set the conditional query on the report you made in step 1.
  4. for recipients, check the box, "to determine the recipients of conditional query. The "column that contains recipients' must be set to 'connection '.
  5. If you want to save the ibot to a shared folder, and then check the box 'Release for subscription' no otherwise.
  6. choose your content delivery and all other options and ensure that planning is set on immediately if you want to get out immediately.
  7. Save and send to any email address that was on the parole request.

  I'm on PS1 11R1 and it works for me. I think you're on R1 - it is likely that R1 might have a bug that crept in PS1 (although I'm not able to locate any such bug in PS1) or there may be a corruption in your environment. My suggestion is upgraded to PS1.

• Reports on permissions in vCenter

  I am looking for a report that was to do the following:

  • the list of all the roles in vCenter
  • the list of all the permissions that each role has
  • list all users and groups that are assigned to each role
  so I would like to format the output of this report so that I can easily import them into Microsoft Word is a table

  A CSV file is a flat without formatting file AFAIK.

• OBIEE can distribute reports to users non-OBIEE e-mail addresses?

  We are looking at using OBIEE, but one of our requirements is to be able to plan and to provide basic (Excel or PDF maybe) reports by e-mail to a relatively large number of recipients.
  
  When I say 'relatively large number' - what I mean is: more than beneficiaries we want to buy licenses for. These beneficiaries would not need or be allowed to access anything else than the scheduled report we send to them on a weekly or monthly, it is not logical for us to purchase licenses for them.
  
  But from what I can find so far, OBIEE provides reports only to authorized users.
  
  Is there actually some kind of calendar and e-mail reports to any e-mail (non-user) in OBIEE?
  
  Or I would need a third party solution separate to achieve? (Any suggestions would be appreciated!)
  
  Thank you!

  If you store the ppl in a table (essentially any datasource you attack with the RPD), you create a query pulling up all targeted users, and then in the "Beneficiaries" of the iBot tab, you can choose

  'Determine the recipients of conditional query.

  Then, you specify the recipients 'column container.

• Do we need data warehouse, if we only create dashboards and reports in obiee?

  Hello! I'm new to obiee.

  My organization has decided to build their reports and dashboards using obiee. I am involved in this mission, but I don't have in-depth knowledge he obiee.  My question is what do we need to have the installation of the data warehouse? Or I just need to just install obiee by the creation of a repository, and then by creating a data source in publisher bi and then create dashboards or reports?

  I'm confused too please help me in this regard. Please share any document or link where I can easily understand these things. Thank you

  Please share any document or link where I can easily understand these things. Thank you

  OBIEE is a software to run without a good understanding of its complex concepts. I would really recommend attending a training course, or at least a book (for example this or this). There are MANY items of general blog on OBIEE, many of which are of poor quality and are all step-by-step guides on how to do a particular task, without explaining the overall situation.

  If you want to use OBIEE and to make it a success, you have learned to understand the basics.

  To answer your question directly:

  -BI Publisher is not the same thing as OBIEE. It is a component of it (but also autonomous available). OBIEE makes data accessible through 'Dashboards' which is made up of 'Analysis', written in the answers tool. Dashboards can also contain content BI Publisher if you want

  -OBIEE can report against the many sources of different data, one or more data warehouse and transactional. Most of the OBIEE implementations that perform well are based against dedicated DW, but is not a mandatory condition.

  -If reports against a DW real or not, when you build the repository OBIEE you build a "virtual" data warehouse, in other words, you dimensionally model all your business in one data set of logic diagrams in Star.

• Area permissions Admin subject OBIEE

  I'm trying to accomplish two things related to securing the subject box.  I'm not able to do either with the OBIEE Admin tool as I believe it should work but haven't found a long work around for one using the Administration manage the privileges in the responses.  Here are the two challenges:

  (1) cannot create the table based on security in the administration tools of OBIEE that works when it is deployed to the OBIEE server:

  Location: In the OBIEE administration tool I have:

  • Field 'ARG' who has the following permissions:
    • Authenticated user (defined as reading have no fault in option)
    • GRA Analytics ()set read/write)
    • GRA course Analytics (set read/write)
    • All other responsibilities are defined by default
  • Within the area of topic GRA, I have a table named 'Global' with the following permissions:
    • Authenticated user (defined as reading have no fault in option)
    • Analytics ARG (as default)
    • GRA course Analytics (set read/write)
    • All other responsibilities are defined by default
  • I have a user configuration with the responsibility of 'Analytics ARG' but NOT the responsibility of GRA Secure Analytics
  • The user is authenticated using LDAP by Siebel (where the responsibilities are assigned

  Desire:

  • When the user connects to answers and opens the topic GRA they would see all tables EXCEPT the global table

  Undesirable result:

  • The user is able to see the GRA area but also sees the global table
  • I find users in the groups of roles/catalog and they DO NOT have the role of GRA Secure Analytics ( do not have the role of GRA analytics.)

  Note: My second question which I included below directly impact on the question of the top of the page.

  (2) cannot create the topic in that security based in administrative tools of OBIEE that works when it is deployed to the OBIEE server:

  Location: In the OBIEE administration tool I have:

  • Field 'ARG' who has the following permissions:
    • Authenticated user (defined as reading have no fault in option)
    • GRA Analytics ()set read/write)
    • GRA course Analytics (set read/write)
    • All other responsibilities are defined by default
  • I have a user configuration with the responsibility of 'Analytics ARG' but NOT the responsibility of GRA Secure Analytics
  • The user is authenticated using LDAP by Siebel (where the responsibilities are assigned

  
  

  Desire:

  • When the user connects to only those users with the GRA analytical responses or the responsibility of GRA Secure analytics would see the ARG field

  
  

  Undesirable result:

  • Any user who connects to the responses seen topic GRA area

  Work around:

  • If I connect to answers with my Admin user account I can select Administration-> manage privileges
  • Find the ARG area and then set the permissions of responsibility Through analytics and GRA Secure Analytics as "Granted".
  • When the user logs in the responses with the analytical GRA or the responsibility of GRA Secure Analytics they see the ARG area, but if they don't have the responsibility that they don't see it.

  Problems with work around:

  • Makes assigning permissions in OBIEE Admin obsolete tool
  • Cannot assign table level permissions here and therefore cannot solve the first problem listed
  • Still not sure why to set permissions in the OBIEE administration tool are ignored

  If you could help me find a solution that gets the work tool OBIEE Admin permissions it would be greatly appreciated.

  Thank you...

  Hi Ben,

  I have the feeling you haven't exactly how these things works.

  In the authorization in the 'Authenticated users' administration tool means that every single user in turning to the stage of connection.

  "Read" is enough to see and use (scan on) an object.

  "Read/write" If you want to make updates to your data through OBIEE.

  (2) only members of the roles GRA Analytics & GRA Secure Analytics app must be able to see these topic: 'see' means hide or display in the front end, it's something you manage (as you did in the privileges to manage in the front-end server. If you want to restrict the user to use the subject box (this is what is permission to Admin tool) you will need to attach "Authenticated user" to "No access", all other roles 'Default' (= 'Access forbidden') with the exception of your 2 app Analytics ARG and ARG Secure Analytics roles for which you set the 'Read' permission

  (1) just use the same "recipe" (2): 'Authenticated user' to 'Access forbidden', GRA Analytics also on "Access forbidden" and only Through Secure analytics on 'reading '.

  Give it a try.

  Just keep in mind that Manage privileges works in a different way than the tool Admin permissions. Privileges to manage 'decline' is the highest permission. If an app role has 'decline' and another 'allow' and you are a member of both you will have the "decline" applied to you.

  In the Admin tool, it's the opposite: If one role of the app does not have 'access' and another 'read' and you are both Member you will have permission to 'read '.

• Reports of Virtual Center permissions

  This is another that I'm sure that someone has found, but I could not really see it in the community...

  Anyone know of a VI toolkit script that will run the report on permissions in virtualcenter?

  for example, what user\group are assigned to roles VI?

  Does need to be fancy, just a dump of the users and roles.

  Thanks in advance to save me time to write it myself!

  Are you sure, because my script also shows the key names?

  

• BI Publisher settings when using the OBIEE analysis as the data set

  Hello world
  
  I've created a BEEP report with an existing OBIEE analysis as all data in the data model. I'm stuck with parameters.
  
  In modeling data for BEEP Guide, section 2.8.1 the following text is displayed: "settings and the list of values are inherited from the analysis of BI and they display running." BI analysis must have default values defined for the filter variables. »

  
  

  When he says of parameters and LOV is inherited from the analysis of BI, what is he referring to OBIEE analysis? And when he says "'filter variables" what is it referring to the analysis of OBIEE? " What should I do on the side of the OBIEE analysis, to activate the settings side BEEP report...?

  
  

  Thank you
  

  I managed to get this working. The documentation is very vague. The BEEP report gets the parameters 'default' and LOV based on the presentation and the column variable in OBIEE analysis he uses as a data set. You can't see these variables as parameters on the BEEP report presentation.

  If you need to use variables of presentation on OBIEE analysis, with a default value. Then create the report BEEP with this analysis, as the set of data. Don't create settings on the side TONE. The BEEP report on a dashboard and there you go, the BEEP report data will be filtered according to the value of the variable of presentation.

• OBIEE support a Postgres database as a data source?

  Hello
  We put in place a reporting project from the OBIEE 11 g of solution.
  Our desire to use a PostgreSQL 9.0 DB as a source of data instead of a DB Oracle...
  Before you start the development phase, we want to check if PostgreSQL is supported by OBIEE (for example an incident can we rely on the customer support option, bought by the user).
  We read in the documentation, we can use an ODBC connector to connect to a database, but in another document, there is no find Postgres between the source of data of database supported by OBIEE (DB2, MS SQLserver...)

• Problem with the syntax of the url go

  Hello

  I have following problem: a few months ago, I've defined several reports in which I use the 'URL Go syntax' to pass the filters - according to the syntax described in the oracle documentation:integration of Oracle BI presentation Services in business environments by using HTTP and JavaScript - 11 g Release 1 (11.1....) Reports were built on OBIEE version 11.1.1.6.0 and everything worked fine.

  Currently I've migrated to OBIEE version 11.1.1.6.10 and navigation with several parameters command syntax, as for example. "& P1 = 2 + xx126 + xx125 '-does not work! OBIEE 11.1.1.6.10 translate this syntax in '2 xx125 xx126' instead of 'xx125; xx126 ".

  Please help me solve the problem.

  GRQ

  Srini thanks for your quick response. Unfortunately, you don't understand me well. My problem is: why the syntax (from the Oracle documentation) with several parameters, for example. : "& P3 = n + xxx + yyy +... + zzz ' does not work.

  The solution to this problem is to change the "+" on "", so it should look like this "& P3 = n xxx... yyy zzz" ""

• vCM creates accounts - they can be changed?

  A security sweep turned up two user accounts created by vCM install.

  CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR

  ECMSRSUser

  We are currently asked that these accounts comply with the password policy, but my concern is that it would break the vCM.  Can anyone confirm this?

  jddias,

  You can delete the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account.  I replaced it with success with a domain account.  Here are the steps that I have spend my domain account work.  Notice, this is a stand alone machine of the Agent Proxy, you will need to adjust accordingly if you do this on your collector:

  1. I do Member of the local Administrators group (perhaps not necessary, he did not test without doing that)
  2. I add the domain account to the local group CSI_COMM_PROXY_SVC.
  3. Grant full control permissions to where is located the agent VCM.  In my case, I have computers of autonomous agent proxy (I do not use the collector).  You will see that the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR had already here full control permissions.  Revoke permissions for the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account and grant full control to the domain account.
  4. Grant full control to the registry HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Configuresoft key (assuming that you are on an x 64 operating system, if not, then HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Configuresoft).  Again, see you that csi_comm_proxy_usr already had permissions, withdrawing and grant full control on your domain account.
  5. Change the service account on the service Proxy Communication CM to use your domain account and the duty cycle.
     1. If the Service will not be running, check the permissions of the steps 3 & 4 above
     2. If the service remains operational, I delete the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account at this stage.
  6. Restart the server
  7. Log the server with your domain account.
  8. Follow the steps to create new keys of AgentProxy
  9. Import the new AgentProxy keys in the collector
  10. Update the SSH key on the ESX hosts, you can simply add the key to the servername_ssh_public_key.txt ino the keystore allowed in /home/csi_acct/.ssh on each ESX host charged that the Agent Proxy.
      1. Note, you can add several ssh keys in this file.  In our case, we have like 15 proxy agent.  We have all the keys in this file we put on each ESX host.
  11. Repeat the above for each server proxy agent that you have.
  12. On my collectors, I turn off the service Proxy Communication CM, delete the CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account and change to the local system, and then stop the service.

  This will take care of your CSI_COMM_PROXY_USR account.

  The ECMSRSUser account is another story.  This account is hardcoded in VCM.  I found that documented in the release notes for the 5.3 & 5.4.  Here is the link for 5.3 notes version: http://www.vmware.com/support/vcm/doc/vcm_53_release_notes.html.  Just search ECMSRSUser on this page.  This hard-coded account is always used in 5.4.1 but, it is not any longer in the release notes.

  In our case, we have a security policy against local accounts on servers, so this begs a question.  I worked with support on this when this account was first added to VCM.  While it is not supported, you can delete this account.  You just make sure you add the appropriate permissions in SSRS on your collector in the ECM Reports folder.  You can use a group of authenticated users, domain or domain accounts, which either work for your environment.  You grant Content Manager permissions.  This solution "works" for us.  Note, you will get security event anytime a SRS page is access from VCM, VCM always try to use the ECMSRSUser account, but as long as the Reporting SERVICES permissions are in place, everything still works.   I have not fully validated this continues to work with 5.4.1, so make sure you test it.  I found the account ECMSRSUser must exist if if you want to use the gui to Import/Export tool to export reports (the ecmie.exe command-line tool has not this dependency).

  I submitted an enhancement request to fix this.  It can only help if others do the same.  We must consider the possibility of specifying domain accounts for those moments to install two.  At a minimum, the password for the ECMSRSUser account doesn't have to be hard-coded.

  I hope this helps.
