Practice 2-1: Creating and Connecting to ODI Master and Work
Repositories
Use Case Scenario:

John works as a database administrator for FN Enterprise. In FN Enterprise, John is responsible
for performing database management and integration tasks on various resources within the
organization. In particular, John is responsible for data loading, transformation, and validation.
To set his ODI environment, he needs to set up security and create Master and Work
Repositories.
Background:
To set up Oracle Data Integrator, first create database users for the Master and Work
Repositories. Then, create the Master Repository, connect to the Master Repository, create the
Work Repository, and then connect to the Work repository.
a ble
In this practice, you first use SQL Developer to create the database users for the Master and f e r
Work Repositories. Then, in ODI, you create and connect to the ODI Master Repository and the ans
ODI Work Repository. n - t r
o
an
Note: These are practice repositories. In later lessons, you use other Master and Work
s
ha ฺ
Repositories that are partially predefined with source and target objects.

Practice 3-1: Setting Up and Installing an ODI Agent
Use Case Scenario:

John is responsible for data loading, transformation, and validation. He created Master and
Work Repositories. Now he continues setting up his ODI environment by installing an ODI
Agent.
Background:
A common task in ODI is to set up and install an ODI Agent as a service. After the ODI
scenarios are created, they can be scheduled and orchestrated by using an ODI Agent, which is
a lightweight Java process that orchestrates the execution of ODI scenarios. In this practice,
you create and execute an ODI Agent, which will be used in subsequent practices for
orchestration of the execution of ODI objects.
First, you run encode <password> to generate an encrypted password.
a ble
You copy and paste that string into the odiparams.bat file that contains ODI agent parameters. f e r
ans
You then switch to ODI, and define a physical agent named localagent. Next, you define a
logical agent also named localagent, mapping it to the same-named physical agent. You specify n - t r
o
an
the Global context as the context in which to make this particular mapping of logical to physical
s
agents.
) ha ฺ
ฺ c om uide
In the command window, you execute agent.bat to start the agent that you named localagent.
cle ent G
In ODI, you test a connection to your newly created agent.

The directions on the following pages will take you through these activities:
1. Run encode oracle1 to generate an encrypted password string
2. Edit odiparams.bat, inserting the encrypted password
3. In ODI, define a physical agent named localagent
4. In ODI, define a logical agent named localagent, mapping it to the physical agent named
localagent for the Global context
5. Execute agent.bat to start an agent named localagent.
6. Verify connection to the newly created agent localagent in ODI

Chapter 3 - Page 3
Your Tasks:
1. Before executing the agent.bat file to create the ODI Agent, you must run the encode
password command to generate an encrypted password and paste it into the
odiparams.bat parameter file. To do so, perform the following steps:
Description
a. MS Windows and Open the Windows Explorer, and navigate to the ODI_HOME
text editor directory, where ODI is installed and open the agent\bin
subdirectory:
(C:\oracle\Middleware\Oracle_ODI1\oracledi\agen
t\bin). Navigate to the odiparams.bat file, right-click this
file, and select Edit to open it with a text editor. Leave this editor
open. You will run a batch file from a Command window and
return to this text editor to copy the results into the a ble
odiparams.bat file. f e r
ans
Explanation: You need to edit the odiparams.bat file to set
n - t r

the repository connection information for the ODI Agent to use.
The password information is stored as an encrypted string. You

Edit > Mark, then highlight the password with your mouse; then
select Edit > Copy) and insert it into the odiparams.bat file
as the value for the ODI_MASTER_ENCODED_PASS parameter
(overwriting the existing password). Verify and, if necessary,
edit settings for other parameters from the following table, save
the odiparams.bat file, and then close it. The agent’s
connectivity is now set up.

Note
• DEV_ODI_REPO is an RDBMS schema/user (Oracle

this and subsequent practices.
• The Work Repository name is WORKREP.
• Because each time that you encode the password, it
receives different values, your encoded password will
differ from the one provided in the screen.
• Do not change the default value of the ODI_USER and
ODI_ENCODED_PASS parameters. Those parameters
were pre-coded during ODI installation.

Practice 4-1: Working with Topology
Use Case Scenario:

John created the Master and Work Repositories and installed an ODI Agent as a background
service. To complete setting up his ODI infrastructure, he needs to create contexts, a data
server, and physical and logical schemas.
Background:
Before you begin working on your ODI projects, you need to describe your ODI infrastructure in
the topology. As a starting point of this practice, you will use the environment provided with the
ODI installation. The infrastructure includes several servers. You need to define the following
new data server and its attached physical schemas.
Data Server: ORACLE_ORCL_LOCAL

This practice consists of the following six steps:

1. Define the Production context.
2. Define the Development context. (A third context, Global, is already preseeded for you.)
3. Define the ORACLE_ORCL_LOCAL data server.
4. Define the ODI physical schemas for the data server: SALES_DEV, SALES_PROD.

Chapter 4 - Page 3
5. Define the ORACLE_ORCL_LOCAL_SALES ODI logical schema.
6. Map the logical schema to the two physical schemas, in terms of the three contexts.
Your Tasks:
1. If not started, start Oracle Data Integrator and open the DEV_ODI_REPO connection. If
ODI remains open, skip to step 2.
Note: The username and password are case-sensitive.

Practice 5-1: Setting Up a New ODI Project
Use Case Scenario:

John is responsible for an integration project, which includes data loading, transformation, and
validation. He created contexts, a data server, and physical and logical schemas in the
Topology. To start an integration project, John needs to create a new ODI project and import
knowledge modules that will be used for development of his project.
Background:
Now you assume the role of a project leader who is starting an integration project.
You create a project named HandsOnLoads with a folder named HandsOn. You import
knowledge modules for working with three sources (Hypersonic SQL, XML, and File) and one
target (Oracle.)
Note: Completing this practice is critical for all the following practice sessions.

3. Now, look at global knowledge modules. Introduced in ODI 11.1.1.6, global knowledge
modules enable you to share specific knowledge modules across multiple projects.
 In previous versions of ODI, knowledge modules were always specific to a project and

could only be used within the project into which they were imported.
f e r
 A best practice is to import as global knowledge modules those that will be frequently

used by multiple projects.

Practice 8-1: Creating ODI Interface: Simple Transformations
Use Case Scenario:

John created the new ODI models and reverse-engineered all the tables and files in the models,
defined the constraints on the models, and checked data quality. Now, John begins working on
creating ODI Interfaces to pass data between models and perform simple data transformations.
These interfaces will then be used for the development of his integration project.
Background:
After the models are defined and the quality of the data is verified, you need to create an ODI
Interface to perform transformations. In this practice, you create simple interfaces with one
target table and a single source. You will run these interfaces and check the execution.
In this practice, you create three interfaces. First, you create an interface called INT_8-1,
loading the TRG_COUNTRY datastore in the Oracle Sales Application model with the content of
a ble
the SRC_REGION table from the HSQL Orders Application model. This simple interface has no f e r
transformations. ans
The second interface, INT_8-2, is a duplicate of INT_8-1, to which flow control is activated, n - t r
o
and constraints in the target table are checked.

ha ฺ
The third interface, INT_8-3, loads the TRG_COUNTRY datastore in the Oracle Sales

Application model with the content of the SRC_CITY table from the HSQL Orders Application
model. In this interface, flow control is activated, constraints in the target table are checked, and
a cle ent G

Your Tasks:
1. Create an interface called INT_8-1, loading the TRG_COUNTRY datastore in the Oracle
Sales Application model with the content of the SRC_REGION table from the HSQL Orders
Application model. You must map the columns of the same name without any
transformation. Ensure that you take only distinct records.
a. In Designer, click the Projects tab, and expand the HandsOnLoads project. Expand

Practice 9-1: Creating ODI Interface: Complex Transformations
Use Case Scenario:

John created the interfaces to pass data between models and perform simple ELT
transformations. Now, John needs to create a more complex interface to load data in the target
model from different sources. He also needs to perform some data transformation and filtering,
and provide a date when data was updated.
Background:
In the previous practices, you learned how to create a simple ODI Interface.
In this practice, you create a more complex interface with several sources to load the
TRG_CUSTOMER datastore in the Oracle Sales Application model with the content of
SRC_CUSTOMER table and the SRC_SALES_PERSON files from different models. You apply
filtering to retrieve only customers with CUST_ID < 105. In addition, you populate the update
a ble
date (UPD_DATE) column with the system date in the mapping implementation field. f e r

Practice 9-2: Creating ODI Interface: Implementing Lookup
Use Case Scenario:

John created an interface to load data in the target model from different sources and perform
data transformation and filtering, and provided a date when data was updated. Now, John
needs to implement a lookup to fetch additional information for the data loading in the target.
Background:
In the previous practices, you created an interface with several sources to load the
TRG_CUSTOMER datastore in the Oracle Sales Application model with the content of the
SRC_CUSTOMER table and the SRC_SALES_PERSON files from different models. Now, you
implement the lookup to load data in the target according to the age range provided in the
lookup table.

Practice 10-1: Creating ODI Interface: Exporting a Flat File to a
Relational Table
Use Case Scenario:

In addition to the group of interfaces created earlier, John needs to create a project and an
interface to export data from a flat file and load this data into a relational table. He also needs to
verify the quality of data loaded into the table.

In the previous practices, you learned how to create ODI Interfaces, which transform data from
one or more relational tables in the source to a relational table in the target.
In this practice, you create from scratch an ODI project and an interface to export data from a
flat file to a relational table, execute and monitor the Interface with ODI, and check data quality.

Practice 11-1: Using Native Sequences with ODI Interface
Use Case Scenario:

John created interfaces to load data in the target model from different sources and performed
data transformation, filtering, and implemented lookups. Now, John needs to create an interface
that would load data in the table by using Oracle native sequence, which generates ID numbers
for the target table.
Background:
In this practice, you first use ODI to define the procedure Create_ORCL_SEQ_FAM_ID. You
then execute this procedure, which creates the sequence SEQ_FAMILY_ID in the RDBMS.
Next, you use ODI to create an ODI definition of the native sequence you just created in the
RDBMS, using the same name, SEQ_FAMILY_ID.
Finally, you create and execute the interface INT-11-1 to load the TRG_PROD_FAMILY target a ble
f e r
table by using the new native sequence to generate ID numbers for that table.

Practice 11-2: Using Temporary Indexes
Use Case Scenario:

John created interfaces to load data in the target model from different sources and performed
data transformation. He also created an interface that loads data in the table by using Oracle
native sequence, which generates ID numbers for the target table.
Now, John needs to load the target product table by using the source product table and the
lookup against the table, which contains the ID numbers generated by the newly created
interface with the native sequence. John also needs to create a temporary index on the source
tables to implement the join on the source.
Background:
In the previous practice, TRG_PROD_FAMILY was a target table. In this practice,
TRG_PROD_FAMILY serves as one of the source tables.
ab le
First, you create a new ODI interface, INT-11-2 to load data into the TRG_PRODUCT target fer
datastore table in the Oracle Sales Application model. You specify the source tables asans
SRC_PRODUCT from the HSQL_SRC model, and TRG_PROD_FAMILY from the Oracle n - r
tSales
Application model.
a no
a
TRG_PROD_FAMILY will be used as a lookup table to obtain the ID number
h s generated by the
previous lesson’s interface that used a sequence to populate the)ID number. ฺ
o m i d e
c l eฺc t Guand TRG_PROD_FAMILY on
For the lookup, you create a temporary index to join SRC_PRODUCT
oracode, n
their FAMILY_NAME column.
Finally, you execute the interface, view the@ d e
u examine the inserted rows in the
a source
S t and
TRG_PRODUCT target datastore.

Practice 11-3: Using Data Sets with ODI Interface
Use Case Scenario:

John created an interface to load data in the target model from different sources and perform
data transformation and filtering, and provided a date when data was updated. He also
implemented a lookup to fetch additional information for the data loading in the target. Now,
John creates an interface with multiple data sets to add in a bulk feed of customer data from
another system.
Background:
In this practice, you add a new data set to an interface. Building upon the interface INT_9-2
you created in Lesson 9, you will add a bulk feed of customer data from another system by
adding another data set.
First, you make a copy of interface INT_9-2, naming the copy as INT_11-3. This copy
a ble
includes the default data set you defined in INT_9-2.
f e r
Now, you create a new data set, naming it BULK_CUST_DATA. For its source, you specify the ans
TRG_BULK_CUSTOMER datastore from the Oracle Sales Application model. n - t r

You specify the UNION operator to unite this new source of data with the default data set that

you specified in INT_9-2.
