Languages Introduction to the Oracle Data Integrator Topology

4-6 Oracle Fusion Middleware Developers Guide for Oracle Data Integrator technology. Refer to the server documentation provided, and contact the server administrator to define the connection methods. Create an Oracle Data Integrator User For each database engine used by Oracle Data Integrator, it is recommended to create a user dedicated for ODI on this data server typically named ODI_TEMP. Grant this user privileges to ■ Createdrop objects and perform data manipulation in his own schema. ■ Manipulate data into objects of the other schemas of this data server according to the operations required for the integration processes. This user should be used as follows: ■ Use this user namepassword in the data server userpassword definition. ■ Use this users schema as your Work Schema for all data schemas on this server.

4.2.2.2 Creating a Data Server

To create a Data Server:

1. In Topology Navigator expand the Technologies node in the Physical Architecture

accordion. 2. Select the technology you want to create a data server for.

3. Right-click and select New Data Server

4. Fill in the following fields in the Definition tab:

■ Name : Name of the Data Server that will appear in Oracle Data Integrator. For naming data servers, it is recommended to use the following naming standard: TECHNOLOGY_NAME_SERVER_NAME. ■ ... Data Server : This is the physical name of the data server used by other data servers to identify it. Enter this name if your data servers can be inter-connected in a native way. This parameter is not mandatory for all technologies. For example, for Oracle, this name corresponds to the name of the instance, used for accessing this data server from another Oracle data server through DBLinks. ■ UserPassword : User name and password for connecting to the data server. This parameter is not mandatory for all technologies, as for example for the File technology. Depending on the technology, this could be a Login, a User, or an account. For some connections using the JNDI protocol, the user name and its associated password can be optional if they have been given in the LDAP directory. 5. Define the connection parameters for the data server: A technology can be accessed directly through JDBC or the JDBC connection to this data server can be served from a JNDI directory. If the technology is accessed through a JNDI directory: 1. Check the JNDI Connection on the Definition tab. 2. Go to the JNDI tab, and fill in the following fields:
