9/4/2014 OBIA 7.9.6.4 Configuration - DAC, Informatica & OBIEE
This is the screen that appears when you login for the first time. We will screate repository service first
Click on Domain_NNNNN and Click on Actions> New>PowerCenter Repository Service
Provide Name, Description and Select License and Node for the Repository Service and click Next.
Provide the Database type and username/password where the Repository will be created. Select the Codepage. Tablespace must also
be entered, but for demo cases, we will leave this optional field as blank.
Since we will restore the BI Apps provided repository, Select the Radio Button that says : Content exists under specified connection
string. Do not create new content. Click Finish
Enable the repository Service as shown above.
Step-2 : Restore Contents to Informatica Repository Service
Restore Contents on to the repository Service. The contents are nothing but the OBI Apps Informatica mappings in form of a file.
To do this first copy the Informatica repository files (Oracle_BI_DW_Base.rep and Oracle_BI_DW_Teradata.rep) from
D:\obiee11g\Oracle_BI1\biapps\dwrep\Informatica\Repository to
D:\Informatica\9.0.1\server\infa_shared\Backup
In the repository service, click Actions > Repository Contents > Restore
Select the Oracle_BI_DW_Base.rep file. And say OK.
Repository starts restoring to the database schema.

Make sure to restart the Repository Service after this step
Step-3 : Create Informatica Integration Service
Create integration Service as shown above. Provide a Name and select Licence and Node. Click Next
Select Repository Service created in Step 1. Provide Infa Admin Username/Password. Click Finish.(The one used for logging on to
Informatica Administrator page)
Make sure to Start the Integration Service after this step. If the Integration Service fails to start, Change the Repository Service to Normal
Mode (if it is in ExclusiveMode),log off from Informatica Admin Console page and restart Informatica services from Start>
run>services.msc
Check that both services are up from Domains Page.
Step-4 : Verify that Repository Mappings are accessible
Go to Start>Programs>Informatica>Client>informative PowerCenter Client>PowerCenter Designer
Got to Respository>Add
Provide the Repository Service Name (created earlier) and Admin username
Repository is created
Right Click on Repository>Configure domains.
This Screen shows that Domain is accessible from client and the Repository service is recognized.
Double click on REP_7963 and provide the password, click Connect. The mapping folders and mappings will be visible.
DAC 10.1.3.4.1 Setup
Aim
Restore BI Apps Containers

Configure Connections
Setup DAC Server
Configure Datawarehouse
Step-1 : Configure DAC Client connection
Launch DAC client from Start>Program Files>Datawarehouse Administration Console> Client or navigate to
D:\DAC\10gR3_1\bifoundation\dac\startclient.bat (in a typical installation this is the path)
Click on Configure
Select Create Connection and click Next
Provide Connection Name, Connection Type and other database details. Leave DB Driver and DB URL blank. To provide username and
password, we need to create an Authentication File. Click on the Tick icon next to Authentication File
Then select Create Authentication File. This file will store the DAC schema username and password.
Select the path, which is a standard path. Don’t change the path than what the system prompts
Provide the username and password of the schema where you want the DAC repository to be created. Say OK.
Test the connection. If the connection fails, its most likely due to :
Drivers not available in D:\DAC\10gR3_1\bifoundation\dac\lib. To fix this copy all .jar files from from $ORACLE_HOME\jdbc\lib to the
above mentioned DAC Library path. This is an important step.
TNS not accessible or password not right, check again.
Connection Configuration is now complete.
Step-2 : Restore DAC containers provided by Oracle BI apps product
Log in to the DAC using the Administrator username and password configured earlier.
This screen asks for creation DAC repository tables and the the tablespace for DAC metadata tables (starts with W_ETL%). Tablespace
name needs to be filled in. This can be same as the tablespace used for Informatica Domain and Repository Service. Reason being
these schemas don’t grow much.
Next, provide the Administrator user account password and reconfirm that.
Always say yes to Analyze tables for DAC repository. This makes sure indices are rebuilt and table statistics are gathered.
This is how the DAC client will look when login is done for the first time.
Step-3 : Importing DAC metadata to DAC repositiry
We need to import DAC metadata for Source specific containers provided by BI Apps installer The metadata ius present in
<OBIEE_HOME>/OraclelBI\dwrep\DAC_metadata\DAC_Client\export . Copy paste that to dac\export as a precursor to this step.
Go to Tools>DAC Repository management>Import
Select the source specific containers or Applications that are required for ETL. Select Truncate Repository Tables(cleans up old
repository tables if any) and Enable Batch Mode(Does Bulk insert which speeds up the process). Say OK
Reconfirm the step by copy/pasting the code.Say Yes and Importing will start.
When the import completes, say OK to the timing dialogue box.
Post import we can see that metadata is imported in the above screen. This is the out of the box DAC metadata
Step-4 : Configure DAC Connections
Navigate to setup TAB and provide the DAC server hostname.
In Setup Tab > Informatica Servers provide connection details of Informatica Integration Service created earlier. Save.
Test integration Server Connection created above.
Provide connection details of Informatica Repository Service created earlier. Save.

Note port not : 6005 ( do not use any other default value)
Test Repository Server Connection created above.
Provide connection details for datawarehouse and Save
Test the connection to Datawarehouse
Configure the Ora_11_5_10 connection(which will be the source for this course), Save and test.
Step-5 : Setup DAC Server
DAC Server setup needs to be done before any ETL since this server orchestrates the Informatica Mappings.Select Tools>DAC Server
Management>DAC Server Steup
A connection for DAC server needs to be configured, but its not mandatory to create a new one. Click Populate from preconfigured client
configuration.This will use same connection details as the DAC client.
Test the connection and make sure it connects fine. If this connection is not fine, DAC server wont startup and ETL can’t be done
DAC server can be started by executing the startserver.bat script or Start>Programs > Datawarehouse Application Console > Start
Server
The DAC server takes some time to start after the start server command is executed. Make sure you log off and relogin to DAC client. The
indication that DAC server has started is that Red plug icon changes to Amber/Yellow.
Step-6 : Create Datawarehouse Tables
Click on Tools > ETL Management > Configure
Select the source and target database types and click OK
If creating datawarehouse for the first time, select the first option. If existing datawarehouse schema is being reused by cleanup select
the fist 2 options. Click Next
Provide the datawarehouse username, password, datasource name and MANDATORILY the Tablespacename. Click Start
To create a datasource name, click Start>Run and type odbcad32 > System DSN and Add
This will start creating tables on the warehouse.
OBIEE 11g Setup

Use OBIEE admin username and password
Navigate to Business Intelligence>coreapplication>Deployment>Repository
Click on Lock and Edit Configuration. This will prevent others from deploying at the same time.
Provide the OBI apps shipped EnterpriseBusinessAnalytics.rpd file location (<OBIEE 11g Home>\Oracle_BI1\biapps\repository)and
Password, which is Admin123.
Provide full path for Web catalog path as shown above.(the web catalog file EnterpriseBusinessAnalytics.zip needs to be copied from
<OBIEE_11g HOME>/Oracle_BI1/biapps/catalog
