Today, let’s look at a type of external connection, which is seldom used, in my experience. We will be looking at running exports to an FTP site in this post. To illustrate, I’ve set up an FTP site on hostedftp.com (excellent cloud FTP provider). You could also be using your organization’s FTP server. In this……
I thought today we’d take a look at whether it would be possible to do an entire post on record separators, and how they apply to ODI! Be still, my beating heart! Yes, this has all the potential of being one of the most exciting posts I’ve put up. So anyways, let’s get to it.……
One of the things I’ve always wanted to focus on, with this blog, is how the tools we use, sometimes provide simple and effective solutions. For instance, there are always cases, when we develop hierarchies on DRM, where we will need to filter down our exports based on the existence of duplicate attributes. In other……
Today, I thought we’d do a followup post to this one where we initially started looking at shell scripts. Exports are by default, single-threaded, i.e., you get 1 file exported out and when it hits the maximum (2 GB in most cases), a separate file is spawned. But what if we wanted to do multi-threaded exports? MaxL allows……
Though we are fast moving to a cloud-focused world, I still thought we’d look at an old school solution. I was recently doing some work in a Linux environment which had multiple Essbase cubes and I had to do something simple, set up backup exports for these cubes. To do this, all we need is……
Here’s a quick hack, which works on versions 11.1.2.4+. I haven’t had the opportunity to check out earlier versions. I ran into a scenario recently where I had a number of exports that I needed to rename. Now, DRM does not give us the ability to rename objects. It allows us to copy or move……
