OWB Support

u OWB was a free ETL tool distributed with Oracle Database Server Enterprise
Edition
u Oracle has dropped the OWB from Oracle Database 12.x distribution but will
support the 11.x OWB with 12.1 database server
u OWB will be not be supported once the Oracle Database 12.1 release has
reached its End of Premier Support
Oracle Data Integrator (ODI)

u ODI is the ETL tool chosen by Ellucian to replace OWB

u This tool includes the full Application Suite to implement data integration
solutions
u Products included in a full distribution are:
u Weblogic Application Server
u Oracle Data Integrator Studio
u ODI Master Repository and ODI Work Repository
u Sources and Targets (In our case Banner and ODS/EDW/DSR)
u Runtime Standalone Agent

Upgrade Paths

u Install and setup ODS from scratch

u Recommended if you don’t have customization done to ODS
u Will be a clean install with no OWB objects and repository left in the database
u Upgrade the existing ODS environment
u If there are a lot of customization done then upgrade path can be taken
u Will have to cleanup OWB objects and repository after the upgrade is done
 Centennial Infrastructure for ODS 9

Storage is EMC VNX-5200 with all SSD drives

Oracle Sparc T5-8 machine
30 thick threaded virtual cores / 512G RAM for ODS server
92 thick threaded virtual cores / 1TB RAM for Banner server
38 thin threaded virtual cores / 64G RAM for Cognos server
Upgrade of Oracle Warehouse Builder

u For in-place upgrade to ODS 9.0 the OWB should be running out of the
11.2.0.4 with following patches
u OWB commulative patch # 17906774
u OWB oneoff patch # 21977765
u Make sure to run the OWB repository optimization from Warehouse Builder
u On Solaris/Linux environments AWT_TOOLKIT value should be set to Xtoolkit
for OWB to launch after upgrade to 11.2.0.4
Oracle Data Integrator install and
configuration
u Make sure the Java 8 update 101 is installed
u Make directory /software/sworacle/odi/Middleware/odi12212
u Make sure that /usr/jdk/latest/bin/java -version return java 8
u /usr/jdk/jdk1.8.0_121/bin/java -jar fmw_12.2.1.2.6_odi.jar
ODI Installation type
ODI Repository Creation

u Make sure to set your JAVA_HOME variable and latest is pointing to the right
version of JAVA
u export JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.8.0_121
u Change directory to $ODI_HOME/oracle_common/bin and run ./rcu

ODI Studio Configuration
u To Configure ODI studio go to /software/sworacle/odi/Middleware/odi12212/odi/studio/bin and
edit odi.conf and set JavaHome=/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.8.0_121
u Launch it using ./odi and click on File > New
ODI Studio Configuration

Finalize ODI Setup
u Modify the ide.conf file in <ODI_HOME>\jdeveloper\ide\bin and change ‘-Xmx800M’
with ‘-Xmx4096M’
u After Installation finishes start the agent from
$Middleware_Home/user_projects/domains/base_domain/bin using following
command
nohup ./agent.sh -NAME=OracleDIAgent1 PORT=20910 &
u Create the setenv_odi for ODI environment setup in ~/bin folder of oracle user and
it should like this:
u export JAVA_HOME=/usr/jdk/instances/jdk1.8.0_121
u export ODI_HOME=$YourPath/Middleware/odi12212
u export
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/jre/bin:$ODI_HOME/odi/sd

ODS9.0 Upgrade
u Set you environment to Banner DB
u Make sure you unlock your system account in BANNER DB and reset password to a
known value
u Change you directory to /software/banupg/ods_edw/ods/ods90000u/banner/upgrade
and modify login.sql to reflect your environment
u Run the change_password_before_upgrade.sql to change passwords of default accounts
in BannerDB
u Run sqlplus /nolog @upgrade_login_test.sql
u Run sqlplus /nolog @odsstg_upgrade.sql
u Set you environment to ODS database
u Modify the login.sql in /software/banupg/ods_edw/ods/ods90000u/ods/upgrade to
reflect your ODS environment
u Run the statement sqlplus /nolog @upgrade_login_test.sql
u Run the Rename_script_from_SCT_to_BL.sql as odsmgr
u Run sqlplus /nolog @ods_upgrade.sql
ODS9.0 Upgrade
u Run the following scripts for different modules
u sqlplus /nolog @general_etl_upgrade.sql
u sqlplus /nolog @finance_etl_upgrade.sql
u sqlplus /nolog @student_etl_upgrade.sql
u sqlplus /nolog @payroll_etl_upgrade.sql
u sqlplus /nolog @posnctl_etl_upgrade.sql
u Verify the environment by running sqlplus /nolog @gurutlrp.sql
u Copy SmartImport.jar and login.properties from ods/odi/java/ to <ODI_HOME>/odi/sdk/lib
u Move the non_licensed modules into subfolder in
/software/banupg/ods_edw/ods/ods90000u/ods/odi/xml to Not_Licensed
u Use the method 2 from step 22.5 to import ODI metadata and run following command after modifyig
the login.properties files according to our environment
java -cp $CLASSPATH smartimport.SmartImport
**You will get errors that <Module.zip> file does not exist ignore that
u Run the script
u sqlplus /nolog @gurutlrp.sql
u sqlplus /nolog @warehouse_recompile_banner.sql
