Generating a Metadata Dictionary You can generate a metadata dictionary to help Oracle Business Intelligence users obtain more information about metrics or attributes for repository objects. For example, users might need to resolve issues caused by confusing metadata object names, or to obtain more details when an attribute is derived in a complicated way. A metadata dictionary is a static set of XML documents. Each XML document describes a metadata object, such as a column, including its properties and relationships with other metadata objects. These XML documents can be viewed within the Oracle BI Presentation Services user interface, or they can be viewed directly in a browser. Use the Administration Tool to generate a metadata dictionary for your repository. Because the dictionary does not change dynamically as repository changes are made, you must generate the dictionary periodically to update the content. The metadata dictionary files need to be hosted on a Web server, such as Oracle HTTP Server or Apache HTTP Server. When you generate the dictionary, you can set the output location to the final location on the Web server, or to a temporary location. If you generate the dictionary in a temporary location, you must then copy the files to the location on the Web server. Note that some large repositories can contain tens of thousands of objects. Generating a dictionary for a large repository can take a significant period of time. To generate a metadata dictionary: 1. In the Administration Tool, open your repository in offline mode. You cannot generate a metadata dictionary in online mode.2. Select Tools, then select Utilities.
3. Select Generate Metadata Dictionary and click Execute.
