Creating File System Locations

You must create file locations within the Oracle Warehouse Builder repository to define where the data files used in the ETL process flow are located.

This task is a step in Process of Installing the Oracle Warehouse Builder Repository.

To create a file system location

1. Expand the Locations node in the Connection Explorer, and navigate to Files.

   On Oracle Database 11g Release 2 the Locations Node is on the Locations Navigator panel.

2. Right-click the Files node, and click New to open the Create File System Location dialog.
3. Enter a name and file system location, then click OK. Define the following location for your implementation. In a RAC environment, the file system location must be a shared location that all RAC nodes can access.

   Name	Description	Example
   DATA_FILES_LOCATION	Where incoming data is located	/export/home/oracle/testdata/OWF_OUTDATA
   BAD_FILE_LOCATION	Where bad data files are written	/export/home/oracle/testdata/bad
   DISCARD_FILE_LOCATION	Where discarded data is written	/export/home/oracle/testdata/discard
   LOG_FILE_LOCATION	Where log files are written	/export/home/oracle/testdata/log

4. On the toolbar, click Save All to save all the changes in the Design Center.
