Configuring the BI Publisher Server - Cache Expiration Validating the Installation and Configuration of BI Publisher
15.4 Configuring the BI Publisher Server - Cache Expiration
By default, all Oracle Enterprise Repository reports uses Document Caching to reduce database roundtrips on the generation of report data. While the data is cached, the rendered report may not always show the most recent activities in Oracle Enterprise Repository. Setting the cache expiration changes depending on how frequently BI Publisher needs to refresh the data for the second and subsequent rendering of a report. The default value in BI Publisher for the cache expiration is 30. To change this value, follow the following steps: 1. Log into BI Publisher as an administrator.2. Click the Admin tab.
3. In the System Maintenance section, select the Server Configuration link.
4. In the Caching section, specify a Cache Expiration in minutes and click Apply
apply the changes.15.5 Validating the Installation and Configuration of BI Publisher
Ensure that the reports, which have been configured to run within BI Publisher, are functional. It is also required that a link to the reports is provided to the Oracle Enterprise Repository System Settings to allow Oracle Enterprise Repository users to access and utilize the reports. The Report Search Criteria is a good report for this validation. It is easy to generate data for the report by using Oracle Enterprise Repository. To generate data for Search Criteria, perform the following steps: Database Driver Class hyperion.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver Connect String jdbc:hyperion:db2:[hostHOST]:[portPORT];DatabaseName=[dbna meDB_NAME] Example jdbc:hyperion:db2:machine.example.com;DatabaseName=oer Note: When reports are rendered by BI Publisher, the result is dependent upon the data found for the report. Until data is present, the reports returned by BI Publisher may be inconsistent. 15-6 Oracle Fusion Middleware Configuration Guide for Oracle Enterprise Repository 1. Connect to the Oracle Enterprise Repository instance, which is functioning properly.2. In the assets tab, enter a keyword into the search box, and then click Search.
To run the Search Criteria: 1. Log into BI Publisher as the OER user. 2. Browse the Shared Folders for OER.3. Locate Search Criteria and click View to view the report.
4. Leave the From and To parameters as is. Click the View button to run the report.
5. Click Link to the Report, and then select Current Page from the menu that
appears. A dialog that contains a URL to the report running in BI Publisher is displayed. The URL is of the format: http:HOSTNAME:PORTxmlpserverOERSearch+CriteriaSearch+Criteria.xdo 6. A portion of the URL must be copied into the Oracle Enterprise Repository System Settings. The Portion is restricted to the folder containing the reports. This should be of the form: http:HOSTNAME:PORTxmlpserverOER7. Copy this value to the System Setting Report Server URL
