connection appropriate for your data source, such as ODBC 3.5. Make sure to choose OCI 10g11g if your data source is an Oracle Database. Using OCI as your connection protocol to an Oracle Database ensures better performance and provides access to native database features that are not available through ODBC. The remaining fields and options on the Select Data Source screen vary according to the connection type you selected: – For ODBC 2.0 and ODBC 3.5 data sources, in the DSN list, select a data source from which to import the schema. Then, provide a valid user name and password for the data source. Note that when you import through the Oracle BI Server, the DSN entries are on the Oracle BI Server, not on the local computer. – For OCI 10g11g and DB2 CLI Unicode data sources, provide the name of the data source in the Data Source Name field, then provide a valid user name and password for the data source. For Oracle Database data sources, the data source name is either a full connect string or a net service name from the tnsnames.ora file. If you enter a net service name, you must ensure that you have set up a tnsnames.ora file within the Oracle Business Intelligence environment, in ORACLE_ HOMEnetworkadmin. Other data source types are described in other sections: Note: For non-Oracle databases, it is recommended that you use ODBC 3.5 or DB2 CLI Unicode for importing schemas with International characters, such as Japanese table and column names.
