A Control Tables

Some tables are defined in the ocdm_sys schema and use a DWC_ prefix, but are not part of Oracle Communications Data Model. You use the DWC_ control tables when processing the model. For example when loading data or when monitoring errors.

This appendix includes the following sections:

Intra-ETL Load Parameters Control Table

Use the ocdm_execute_wf.sh program to manually execute the Intra-ETL. Before you run the Intra-ETL, for an incremental load, you must update the Oracle Communications Data Model Relational ETL parameters in DWC_ETL_PARAMETER table so that this information can be used when loading the relational data. This program prompts for several environment parameter values. And reads ETL parameters from DWC_ETL_PARAMETER table, as shown in Table A-1, and DWC_OLAP_ETL_PARAMETER table, as shown in Table A-2.

The PKG_DWD_*_MAP loads data from Oracle Communications Data Model base tables into the Oracle Communications Data Model derived tables. These packages read relational ETL parameters from the DWC_ETL_PARAMETER table.

You update the parameters in DWC_ETL_PARAMETER control table in the ocdm_sys schema so that this information can be used when loading the derived and aggregate tables and views.

Table A-1 describes the valid values for the DWC_ETL_PARAMETER table.

Table A-1 DWC_ETL_PARAMETER Table

Column Description

Process_name

OCDM-INTRA-ETL

from_date_etl

The start date of ETL period.

to_date_etl

The end date of ETL period.

load_dt

The date when this record are populated.

last_updt_dt

The date when this record are last updated

last_updt_by

The user who last updated this record


Intra-ETL OLAP Mapping Control Table

The OLAP MAP mapping that loads OLAP cube data invokes the analytic workspace build function from the PKG_OCDM_OLAP_ETL_AW_LOAD package. This package loads data from Oracle Communications Data Model aggregate materialized views into the Oracle Communications Data Model analytical workspace and calculates the forecast data. The PKG_OCDM_OLAP_ETL_AW_LOAD reads OLAP ETL parameters from the DWC_OLAP_ETL_PARAMETER table.

You update the Oracle Communications Data Model OLAP ETL parameters in DWC_OLAP_ETL_PARAMETER control table in the ocdm_sys schema so that this information can be used when loading the OLAP cube data.

Table A-2 describes the valid values for the DWC_OLAP_ETL_PARAMETER table. For more information on the values to specify when performing an initial load of OLAP cube data or when refreshing the OLAP cubes after an initial load, see Oracle Communications Data Model Implementation and Operations Guide.

Table A-2 ETL Parameters in the DWC_OLAP_ETL_PARAMETER Table

Column Name Description

PROCESS_NAME

OCDM_OLAP_ETL

BUILD_METHOD

Cube build/refresh method specified by one of the following values:

  • C specifies a complete refresh which clears all dimension values before loading.

  • ? specifies a fast refresh if possible; otherwise, a complete refresh. (Default)

  • P specifies recomputation of rows in a cube materialized view that are affected by changed partitions in the detail tables.

  • S specifies a fast solve of a compressed cube. A fast solve reloads all the detail data and re-aggregates only the changed values.

CUBENAME

Specifies the cubes you want to build:

ALL builds all of the cubes in the Oracle Communications Data Model analytic workspace.

cubename[[|cubename]...] specifies one or more cubes, as specified with cubename, to build.

MAXJOBQUEUES

A decimal value that specifies the number of parallel processes to allocate to this job. (Default value is 4.)

The number of parallel processes actually allocated by a build is controlled by the smallest of these factors:

  • Number of cubes in the build and the number of partitions in each cube.

  • Setting of the MAXJOBQUEUES argument.

  • Setting of the JOB_QUEUE_PROCESSES database initialization parameter.

CALC_FCST

Whether or not to calculate forecast cubes:

  • Y specifies calculate forecast cubes.

  • N specifies do not calculate forecast cubes.

NO_FCST_YRS

A decimal value that specifies how many years forecast data you want to calculate. (This parameter takes effect only if you set CALC_FCST to 'Y')

FCST_MTHD

AUTO which invokes the Geneva forecasting expert system which tests all of possible forecasting methods and options for these methods and chooses and uses the method that best fits the data.

FCST_ST_YR

A value specified as yyyy which is the "start business year" of a historical period. Forecast program will calculate the forecast data based on the historical data in this period.

FCST_END_YR

A value specified as yyyy which is the "end business year" of a historical period. Forecast program will calculate the forecast data based on the historical data in this period.

OTHER1

Reserved for future use. (Default value is NULL.)

OTHER2

Reserved for future use. (Default value is NULL.)


Intra-ETL Monitoring Process Control Tables

The two control table in the ocdm_sys schema, DWC_INTRA_ETL_PROCESS and DWC_INTRA_ETL_ACTIVITY, monitor the execution of the Intra-ETL process.

Table A-3 contains column name information for DWC_INTRA_ETL_PROCESS. Table A-4 contains column name information for DWC_INTRA_ETL_ACTIVITY.
