Data transfer to database repository
« on: January 02, 2004, 03:57:04 am »
Hi,

I have a corporate edition and i have built one Oracle9i repository from sql scritps.

I have transfered and EAP file (one project) to an Oracle 9i repository OK.

When i transfer other EAP file (other project) to the same repository then the first project disappears.

Is it possible to transfer more than one EAP file to the same repository?. Should i build an Oracle 9i repository
for every EAP file that i want to transfer?

Thanks a lot. :)

Hi,

the EAP file is nothing else but an MS Access database with a set of tables in it. Oracle (SQL Server, MySql) Repository is nothing else but the same set of the tables stored in a database.
When you do the data transfer (even between two EAP files or between two repositories), the target one is emptied first.
If you really want to get contents of several files (or repositories) together, you can do it in a different way - use the export/import functionality.
Just right-click on the root of the model in your EAP file and select "Export model to XML". Then open your Oracle repository, right click on where you want the contents of the EAP file to go, and select "Import model from XML". That should do the trick!
