Discoverer Import Checklist and Configuration

Avatar photoCustomer September 18, 2023 at 3:26 am

We are preparing for the Discoverer migration. What must be configured on the Discoverer side (Desktop/Plus) to ensure that Blitz Report can access the usage history needed for filtering?

      The Blitz Report Discoverer import heavily relies on execution statistics stored in the database table `EUL5_QPP_STATS` . To ensure this table is populated, users must properly exit Discoverer Desktop or Plus using the File > Exit menu (not just closing the window) , . For Discoverer Plus and Viewer users, specific settings must be verified in the server configuration file (`pref.txt`) , .

      What specific settings are required in the Discoverer server configuration file (`pref.txt`) for statistics collection?

      You need to verify two critical profile settings, typically found in the `[Database]` section or the registry key path `HKEY_CURRENT_USER > Software > Oracle > Discoverer 11 > Database` . The keys `QPPEnable` and `QPPCreateNewStats` must both have their values set to ‘1’ . Additionally, within Discoverer Admin, you must enable ‘Collect Query Statistics’ for all users whose statistics you want to track .

      When importing worksheets, I don’t see any SQLs, or only very old ones. The execution count is blank. What could be the database issue?

      If you are not seeing current worksheet SQLs or execution history, it indicates a failure in the mechanism that updates the `AMS_DISCOVERER_SQL` table . This table is updated when a worksheet is saved, triggered by a Discoverer database trigger called `eul_trigger$post_save_document` . If this trigger does not exist or fails to call the underlying PL/SQL function (`AMS_DISCOVERER_PVT.EUL_TRIGGER$POST_SAVE_DOCUMENT`), the SQLs won’t be available for import .

      For optimal performance during the mass import process, is there a recommended index to create on the EUL tables?

    • Support September 27, 2023 at 11:28 am  

      Yes, for better import performance, it is recommended to create an index on `eul5_documents.doc_name` . The suggested index creation statement is: `create index .xxeul5_documents_n1 on .eul5_documents (doc_name) tablespace apps_ts_tx_idx;` .
