Webcat: Built-in system wide default formats
OBIEE 10g: Formatting not Copied when You Copy the Catalog There is no catalog migration of the system formats.
The Built-in system wide default formats are not copied during catalog migration as they are not exposed via the Catalog Manager. In general these defaults are saved internally in the Web Catalog, but not exposed in the Catalog Manager.
The following actions may be try between the two environments:
- copy the folder /system/metadata from source to destination via the Catalog Manager.
In the source destination, you must:
- first take the ownership of the metadata folder and of all files.
- Gives you the “Full Control” permission on all object
- and then copy the complete metadata folder
- of copy the contents under web\catalog\<SubjectAreaName>\root\system\metadata from the source Catalog to the target catalog.
- Note that the Catalog Manager 10.1.3.4 cmd line version allows specifiying multiple paths, and thus an archive with /system/metadata/<item needed> can be created
- The file root > system > metadata > _datatype_formats contains the system wide default for data type.
