Versions of the RPD OBIEE

Hi all

I'm new to OBIEE. My question is maybe asimple one, but I want to know. As we know when I save the RPD, it creates versions of the RPD even by numbering it. Example if I saved the RPD as XYZ and deployed it and if I want to make changes, I'll open the RPD in offline mode and to make changes and to deploy it and still a new version is created the same RPD. Now I have a RPD even 40 versions, which can do to avoid this problem. I have just remove older versions of the current SPR and only keep the new versions? Please guide

If you change your SPR in online mode, it will not create a new version, because you don't need to deploy.

You can of course remove older versions, only the last is used because it is deployed, there is no reference left to all earlier versions, they simply remain in the same folder but OBIEE is not aware that they are there.

If you really 40 almost similar versions, it is because you are not only off line work, then maybe it's time to start practicing online development.

You do the 'big' work offline changes to 'big' in offline mode, but you can complete online: it's fast, without making + reboot required and no new version is created on disk.

  • Issue of modelling for the RPD OBIEE

    Hello everyone,

    Today, I'm dealing with another matter which is; a domain with no fact tables. There are many tables and there is no fact!

    When I joined the dimension as; and create an analysis using 3 Dim, I get the error like;

    In fact no table exists at the level of detail required

    But the businessman wants to create a report that contains these three dimensions.

    Can you suggest me something please. What can I do?

    Kind regards

    dims.jpg

    Physically, you should have 3 objects and 3 joins:

    1.) Dim3 what games roles as fact and dimension with joins in Dim3-> Dim1 and Dim3-> Dim2 to represent joins fact dimension (from course is to be dimensioned as usual). It will be the physical source to the Dim3 LTS of Fact - Dim3 and Dim-

    2.) Dim1 that will be source of th for the Dim - Dim1 LTS

    3.) Dim2 that will be source of th for the Dim - Dim2 LTS

    Logically, you will have 4 logical tables

    Sun - Dim1

    Sun - Dim2

    Sun - Dim3

    Fact - Dim3 relationships ranging from fact - Dim3 three-dimensional logic

  • OBIEE 11.1.1.7.1 Cluster - unable to deploy the RPD on Node1 (node2 works very well)

    Hello

    We found a problem after the upgrade of our Cluster OBIEE of 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.7.1. The system works as expected and all operational services. However, we discovered a problem with the Fusion Middleware control.

    When you deploy a new version of the RPD file, the system copies the RPD to:

    -Ocfs folder shared (for example: < Filename > 0028.rpd.000001) as expected

    (- Node2 RPD file < OBI_INSTANCE > / bifoundation/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obis1/repository) as expected

    2 problems that happened during the deployment process:

    (- It has NOT copied in the folder of prd Node1 < OBI_INSTANCE > / bifoundation/OracleBIServerComponent/coreapplication_obis1/deposit)

    -In addition, it has not changed on the NQSConfig.INI with the new version of the RPD (Star = PROD_BI0027.rpd, default value);.

    As a result, the RPD on Node1 is out of sync. Only Node2 integrates the latest version of the RPD. Everything worked fine before the upgrade process.

    We have seem some newspapers being generated on the BI system when this problem happened. We upload files to this SR for your appreciation. Some errors are related to the:

    It seems that there is a zero references used by Web services on Weblogic when you deploy changes to the RPD.

    How can we reset the store of credentials or passwords used by Web services above?

    The problem has been resolved by following the steps in this document:

    OBIEE 11 g: error: 'MANAGED_SERVER:bi_server2; FAILED_CONTACTING_MANAGED_SERVERS; Specified BI Managed Servers are closed: bi_server2 'deployment of repository in Enterprise Manager (Doc ID 1468049.1).

  • OBIEE 11g Patch. We need to update the RPD?

    I have a question. There are a lot of articles to patch OBIEE 11 g to the latest version. A few articles describe only patching process and I forgot the important step. This step is the upgrade catalog after patched and we can found in the documentation. But I can't find any reference for the upgrade of the repository.
    I guess if the BI server files then changes it may be the structure for the RPD file changes. We need to update the client tools for corresponding to the current version. So I think that we need to upgrade the repository file.
    Does anyone know how to do?
    Maybe patch process in automatic mode?

    When you apply a patch, it used upgrate the RPD.

    The upgrade of the RPD to ex: 11.1.1.5 to 11.1.1.6.2 is very simple open the RPD 11.1.1.5 using 11.1.1.6.2 Admin tool Client and save with Save as option, it does it automatically.

    Thank you

  • Passes 10 g OBIEE to open the file of the RPD in offline mode.

    I'm new to OBIEE. I used the Oracle BI administration tool to create a file of RPD and saved. While reopening, it asks password. The username is already listed as "administrator." What is the password?

    The way I created the file of the RPD is important a Datasouce ODBC and did not indicate any password.

  • could not be able to see the RPD in BI Analytics(OBIEE 11g)

    Hello

    I had been sent RPD median molten ware.but I am not able to get the file RPD BI Analytics.

    Thanks in advance

    Hello

    After deployment, try to open the RPD in online mode and check if your changes are reflecting.
    When you enter the password and click on apply, the RPD 'by default' should increase (for example, something_BI0101.rpd to something_BI0102.rpd). Check what is happening. After clicking on activate the changes, and then restart the services, check the directory of the server for the new file and check NQSConfig.INI and make sure that it all adds up.
    If you have any rpds in the directory on the server with a number that has not been used yet I found that can cause problems (for example if you copied a dev server to test).
    Also download the active RPD and compare it to your offline version to see if they are different.
    Just to be clear, you're clicking on apply after browsing for the file, and then click Activate changes?

    Please follow the procedure below:

  • Problem of the Essbase hierarchy in the physical layer of RPD (OBIEE 11 g).

    Hello

    I have a scenario that follows

    EssBase Ac.png


    In the screenshot above, we are not able to get the data accounts, Gen1 and Gen2, levels of accounts (taking a measure). We get level 3. Gen1, accounts which the Member 'Accounts' and Gen2 level, accounts Member "ALL_ACCOUNTS". When I combine it with measure only displaying not of any value (possibly summary data). Please let me know/possible error correction must be done as soon as possible.

    Kind regards

    Chandra Khalil.

    Are OK, if you're new to essbase you sure that you are supposed to have values of measures in gen 1 and 2 of your account dimension?

    It is a common behavior to aggregate not always things to the top of the dimension if it does not make sense from a functional point of view.

    It does not shock me for not having values for members 'Accounts' and 'ALL_ACCOUNTS' because in general you can not always aggregate accounts together.

    You can also get the products OBIEE physical query (MDX) in the same way that you get any physical motion in OBIEE and run directly against Essbase (or ask support Essbase guys for this) and validate it returns nothing, and there is a problem in the application itself.

  • The opening of the RPD MDS XML error

    The landscape

    I have a relatively simple SPR with a single Oracle data source considered. OBIEE version 11.1.1.9

    I followed best practices and star schema article to define the logical subject area: 8 dimensions and a fact table.

    dashboards and reports on OBIEE work well and no problems of RPD to date.

    Usage tracking is enabled and modeled.

    The problem

    I'm in the early stages of planning for automated deployment, but so far I can't properly re - open the RPD in the form of XML documents.

    Backup repository happily in XML format, but on open after several attempts, accepts the password but gives the following error:

    "nQSError 90028] XML Validation error to line number 5: data type error: Type: InvalidDatatypeValueException, ID of Message: 'mError' is not unique."


    Troubleshooting so far

    • Like a madman, google-> nothing (if this isn't common)
    • RPD light up to the basic set, same problem
    • Tried on another server with an export charges of an RPD offline (the most recent version of the same file). Same question. (so, not my machine)
      Tried with SampleApp DPR installation - error does not (not the application)
    • I opened all the MDS XML files exported in Notepad ++ and sought non-unique value. It is 250 hits around 9 files - all were the logical table XMLs. In each case the offending value is located in the < AttrDefn > element of a column of logic and resembles this example:

    < LogicalColumn mdsid = ' m4000001b-0ab3-1580-92e1 - a 0, 0102420000 "name ="Date time"isWriteable ="false">

    "< AttrDefn mdsid = 'mError" name = "AD_3900:73941442851546" > "

    < mdsid Expr = 'm00000001-01f4-0000-cff2-f3fb00000000' name = 'Expr' >

    < ExprText > <! [CDATA ['%1']] > < / ExprText >

    You want to integrate with version control in the House and the script / automate patches rpds based environments onward.

    You can do this with comparerpd/patchrpd command line tools - on the binary RPD. You need not MDS XML. You can put the RPD in control source (and if you want to use XML MDS, keep a copy of it in the source code control too - but use it as your exclusive of the RPD representation)

    At the Stewart Bryson blog on RM.com with git as an example.

    Yes, Stewart and I disagree on this subject ;-)

    Gurus,

    My question is perhaps stupid please help.

    I installed OBIEE 12 c. I was able to connect to oracle and create a new RPD. When I try to open it in online mode its asking about a configuration of ODBC driver. I tried to set up the connection to the OBIEE server for the local host. It shows 4 instances OBI OBI SERVER 1 2 and 3. Which should I use and what is the purpose of having these in there?

    Do you have an example of RPD content as we get for 11g - sampleapp. If it doesn't there please help me find a way to connect to my system. If this isn't the case, please correct me. Thank you.

    Concerning

    Hi Maraprik,

    You must create a new system DSN to connect to the RPD in online mode.

    1. go in ODBC data sources.

    2. create a new system DSN

    3. Add the server of Oracle's BI.

    4 specify the name and the Server (hostname), and then click Next (http://hostname:9502/analytics/saw.dll?bieehome).

    5. Please provide the connection information and the port 9514 (default).

    6. click on finish.

    You should now be able to connect the RPD in online mode. It will be useful.
