ODI11g: Creating an ODI Procedure to

Create and Populate RDBMS Table

Purpose
This tutorial walks you through the steps that are needed to create a project and a procedure in
Oracle Data Integrator (ODI) to create and populate a relational table.

Time to Complete
Approximately 30 minutes

Overview
A common task that is performed using ODI is to create and populate a relational table. This
tutorial walks you through the steps that are needed to create a project and a procedure that will
create and populate a relational table with data. You also execute the procedure and verify the
execution within ODI Operator.

Scenario
Linda works as a database administrator for Global Enterprise. In Global Enterprise, Linda is
responsible for performing database management and integration tasks on the various resources
within the organization. In particular, Linda is responsible for data loading, transformation, and
validation. To begin working on her projects, Linda created the new Master repository and Work
repository. Now Linda needs to create a project and a procedure to create a relational table and
populate it with data.

Creating RDBMS Schema for ODI Source Datastore

You need to create a schema to host the RDBMS table. In this OBE, you use the RDBMS
user/schema ODI_STAGE.
To create a new RDBMS schema for the ODI datastore, perform the following steps:
Start SQL Developer. You will create the new schema/user by executing the following SQL
1 . commands:
create user ODI_STAGE identified by ODI_STAGE

default tablespace users temporary tablespace temp;

grant connect, resource, create trigger, create view to ODI_STAGE;

2 . If not done before, in SQL Developer create new connection called ODI_STAGE. Enter User
name as ODI_STAGE with password ODI_STAGE. For SID enter ORCL. Click Test to verify
connection, and then click Connect.

Creating a New ODI Dataserver, Physical and Logical

Schemas for RDBMS table
After you created the new database target datastore, you need to create a new ODI target data
server and the Physical schema. To create the ODI target data server and physical schema,
perform the following steps:
1 . In ODI, Open ODI Topology Navigator and then select the Physical Architecture tab. Expand
Technologies, right-click Oracle and select New Data Server.

2 . In the Data Server: New window, enter the values provided in the table below. Click the JDBC
tab.

Click
for JDBC Driver. Select Oracle JDBC Driver. Click OK. Click
for JDBC Url,
select jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:<port>:<sid>, and then click OK. Edit the Url to read:
jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:ORCL for Oracle Database.
Note: Do not copy and paste in the JDBC Url field. This may cause problems with entering a
valid URL string.

4 . Click Test Connection. In the window that opens, click Yes to save your data. In the Information
window, click OK. Click Test to verify successful connection. Click OK.

5 . Click Expand Oracle technology node, right-click ODI_STAGE dataserver, and then select New
Physical Schema.

6 . In Schema (Schema) and Schema (Work Schema) field enter your ODI_STAGE schema. Click
Save button. Close ODI_STAGE.ODI_STAGE physical schema window. In the Information
window, click OK.

7 . Open Logical Architecture tab, expand Technologies > Oracle. Right-click Oracle technology

and then select New Logical Schema.

1 . Name logical schema ODI_STAGE. In the Global context, connect this logical schema to
ODI_STAGE physical schema as shown below. Click Save

button and then close the tabs.

Creating a New ODI Project

To create a new project within Oracle Data Integrator, perform the following steps:
1. Start ODI Designer: Start > Programs > Oracle > Oracle Data Integrator > ODI Studio .
Select WORKREP1 from the Login Name drop-down list if not already selected. Enter
SUPERVISOR in the User field and SUNOPSIS in the Password field. Click OK to login.

2. In the designer tab, click the Projects tab, click New Project icon
Project.

, and then click New

3. On the screen that appears, set the Name of the project to Procedure-CRT-TBL in the Name
field. The Code field is filled automatically. Click Save icon
. The newly created ProcedureCRT-TBL project now appears in the Projects tree view. You have now successfully added a
new ODI project.

Creating ODI Procedure to Create and Populate RDBMS

Table

To create a new ODI procedure to create and populate RDBMS table, perform the following
steps:
In the Projects tab, expand: Procedure-CRT-TBL > First Folder. Right-click Procedures and
1. select New Procedure.

2. Enter the procedure name as PRD-create-populate-table. Set Target Technology to Oracle. Click
the Details tab. Click the icon

to add a step in the procedure.

3 . In the Command: New window, enter the parameters of the procedure and the command on
target provided below. You need this command to drop the table in case the table with this name
exists. Select the Ignore Errors check box. Select details tab.
