Is migration from version 4.2 to 4.0 possible?

$
0
0

We are currently on Data Services version 4.0 in a four tier environment (dev, staging, QA, Prod).  We are looking to begin upgrading to version 4.2.

 

Question - If we migrate our development environment to version 4.2 would we still be able to migrate jobs, workflows, dataflows, etc to our subsequent environments prior to upgrading or would going 4.2 to 4.0 cause issues.  I am guessing it would.

 

Obviously I would expect if we used new 4.2 functionality this would cause problems but what if we used none of the new features?

 

For any who have upgraded to 4.2 a couple of questions.

 

- Can we go 4.0 to 4.2 or must we upgrade to 4.1 first?

- What are some standard pitfalls that folks have run into with the upgrade?

 

Thanks,

ODBC Configuration for SQL server on BODS system

$

Hello,

 

The requirement is to replicate data from MS SQL Server 2008 database to SAP HANA using SAP BODS system.

Our Environment is BODS 4.1 on Linux 5.6.

I have installed MSSQL Server ODBC driver msodbcsql-11.0.2270.0 on BODS system and configured the ODBC.ini accordingly.

 

[test_sqlserver]

Description=Microsoft ODBC Driver 11 for SQL Server

Driver=/usr/sap/BDS/BOE/dataservices/DataDirect/odbc/lib/libodbc.so

ServerNode=xx.xx.xx.xx

PORT=1433

LogonID=xxxx

Password=xxxxxx

Database=xxxxxx

 

I tested the connectivity usingh isql command and could connect successfully.

 

We then configured a job in Designer and when we try to execute the job, it is giving the below error:

 

 

CON-120302: |Session JOB_SQL_ANALOG_TO_HANA                   

ODBC call <SQLConnect> for data source <test_sqlserver> failed: <[>. Notify Customer Support.

 

Could you please help me how to resolve this.

 

Regards,

Aparna.

Extracting PDF from Blob data type

$

Gurus,

My client wants to extract PDF files saved in BLOB data type - Oracle 11g. These PDFs are invoices - with one page per value.

 

We intend to use SAP BODS 4.1.  Could you guys please suggest a way to do it?  Once this is achieved, a report has will be generated - using BI client tools.

 

Extraction is necessary since reporting tools in BI doesn't support BLOB data type (Webi doesn't , Crystal Reports does but only if their is an image).

 

Look forward to the solutions.

 

Thank you  

table comparison with sorted input hangs in BODS 4.1 SP1 Patch 3

$
0
0

I'm using ODBC to connect postgreSQL EDB as source and target data store.

 

Before, the same data flow works fine with the data stores of Oracle. Currently, due to project requirement, I have to change the data store to ODBC to support several types of databases. But the data flow hangs for very long.

 

My data flow is very simple. two tables -> query(with ordering in it) -> table comparison -> key generation -> a destination table. With this smple data flow, I come across a problem that when the table comparison set to sorted input, it hangs. If I change it to cached comparison table, it works fine.

 

I think it has nothing to do with the data volumn because I have only less than 10 rows in each table for testing purpose. Even when I truncate one of the source table and the destination table, it still hangs, which is very wired. In this case, the query results should be empty. So, I guess the problem should be inside the table comparison component.

 

I also try to turn all trace log on and turn on the tracing SQL log in the DB side. As a result, I found that when the table comparison set to sorted input, several "select" SQLs are pushed to the DB. The SQLs are correct. But there're not SQLs for inserting and updating. When the table comparison set to cached comparison table, the SQLs for inserting are pushed to the DB. So, I think there's something wrong inside the table comparison component(ODBC).

 

Is there anyone came across the similar problem? Any solution or workaround?

 

Wait for answers from experts. Thanks in advance.

Hi everyone,

 

Since the utilisation of Lotus Notes database Domino v9, the application Data Services can't works for this database. When i try to open a table from the database in DS, the application automatically closes. We have download the Lotus Notes SQL Driver 9.00.2013.609, it's seems to be working with an other application called winSQL with the same driver ODBC.

 

Is it a problem of driver ?

I didn't find any compatibility matrix for Data Services 3.1 SP1 with domino database, are they exist ?

Hi,

Can anyone tell me if this is possible through lookup_ext function?

My requirement is this:  ltrim_blank (look_up_column)= Input_table_column

so I decided to use the SQL Custom function:

However I keep getting this error:

Found erroneous expression <__AL_LOOKUPEX_TRAN lookup_ext ([DS_ELECTION_STG.TEISAPPL.SCHOOL_TYPE_L, 'PRE_LOAD_CACHE', 'MAX'],

Configuration / landscape of BI 4.1 SP03 and DS SP01

$
0
0

Hello,

 

due to constraint in SAP NOTE 1740516 the supported configuration / landscape it's the following:

 

 

 

Integration scenario

When is this supported?

Manage DS/IS users/security from BI 4.1 CMS

IS Impact Analysis and Data Lineage services

a

DS/IS 4.2 SP1 + IPS 4.1 SP2 + BI 4.1 SP2/3

Since December 2013

No

Yes

b

DS/IS 4.2 SP1 + BI 4.1 SP2/3 (on same system)

Since December 2013

Yes

Yes

 

Notes:

  • In scenario (a), CMS of IPS and CMS of BI are independent systems. DS/IS will use only IPS CMS for managing DS/IS users and security. BI in the landscape is only for IS Impact Analysis and Data Lineage services feature (it's not applicable for DS). BI is not to be clustered with IPS.
  • If you do not need to share a single CMS for security/user management, and you do not need IS metadata manager for Impact Analysis and Data Lineage, you can go with option (a) today for Data Services.

 

 

And my question it's the following, ¿it's possible to use option b in a distributed environment where only JOB_SERVER it's in a dedicated server?  I know that option A it's the "best practice" option, but we want to know if it's still possible to do that or we must install IPS (option A) and all Data Services server in a dedicated server without no choice

 

I've attached the configuration that we would like to apply if it would be possible

 

Thanks in advance

Regards

Rubén

Unable to view Data Quality Reports in DS 4.2

$

I'm running a new installation of Data Services 14.2.1.622.

 

I'm trying to view my reports in the Management Console. When I click on the report that I would like to view I see a small web window open for about half a second then it goes away. This is the window that I would expect to see my report displayed in.

 

I am able to run a Job and select Export Data Quality Reports from the Execution Options dialog box from within the Designer and my reports are exported correctly. However, this is not really practical to do all of the time since these reports are overwritten, and I have to run them from the Designer, and know a head of time that I need to look at the reports. :-)

 

Any advice, or ideas, on what is wrong with the web viewer for the reports?
