All,
I am trying to use TDS to report on NetView. I am migrating NetView Topology and TRAP data to an Oracle RDBMS. However the Support Guides I was shipped with TDS try to execute queries against table or views that just do not seem to exist in my database.
The TDS cubes I have are called
- NetView Events
- NetView Events by Smartset
- nv_unix_avail
- nv_unix_avails
- Unix SnmpData
- Unix SnmpData by Collection
When building any of these cubes I receive the following error:
e.g. from the NetView Events cube:
Error 40002 - Error exporting query - eventsQuery:
Error Number: 942 - S0002:
[Oracle][ODBC][ORA]ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
e.g. from the vv_unix_avail cube:
Error 40002 - Error exporting query - availabilityQueryUnix:
Error Number: 942 - S0002:
[Oracle][ODBC][ORA]ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
etc. etc...
Example of a query trying to be exported is: select * from ?[DB qualifier].eventOwners
THERE IS NO TABLE OR VIEW OR COLUMN CALLED eventOwners IN MY DATABASE!!!
Likewise there are no tables, views or columns relating to any of the queries in any of the network support guides I have loaded
This leads me to suspect that I have missed out some vital step, or that I have not executed some NetView DB schema, or that I do not have the correct Support Guides for TSD . Here's what I have done:
In Oracle:
Created an Oracle 8i database (on a Sun Solaris 2.8 system)
Installed an Oracle 8i client on my NetView server (Sun Solaris 8i)
Created IP Topology, trapd.Log and snmpCollect tables in the RDBMS using schema sql files supplied with the NetView Databases 6.0 product
In NetView:
Transferred Topology Data from NetView to the RDBMS
Transferred trapd.Log Data to the RDBMS
In NT:
Installed the Oracle 8i ODBC Data Source
Created a System DSN to connect to my NetView RDBMS database
In TDS:
Installed the following Support Guides on my NT server:
- Network Event Analysis
- Network Element Performance
- Network Segment Performance
Installed Tivoli Decision Support V2.1
Installed TDS Patch 2.1-TDS-0006
Assigned my NetView ODBS Data Source to the imported support guides
Tested connectivity from TDS to the NetView RDBMS (works)
Tried to build the cubes - and got the "Error Exporting Query" message!!
I've seen a lot of this type of problem reported in "Ask Tivoli", but no solutions. Anyone: know what I'm doing wrong / not doing / got answers to this problem?
Much obliged
