Set up the Remote Agent to Load Data into Fusion Data Intelligence (Preview)

As a service administrator, you can use an extract service remote agent to connect to your on-premises systems such as E-Business Suite, Peoplesoft, and JD Edwards, load data from these on-premises systems into Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence, and then use the on-premises data to create data augmentations.

Note:

After configuring the remote agent on the Data Configuration page, wait for few minutes, refresh the remote agent page, and when you see the Agent Initialised message, you can proceed with other operations such as testing the connection to the remote agent, testng the connection to the remote source like EBusiness Suite, and refreshing the metadata. This enables you to run these jobs without timeout failures because data pipeline has a default timeout of 15 minutes.

Ensure that Remote Agent is enabled on the Enable Features page prior to creating this connection. See Make Preview Features Available.

Download the remote agent Docker image from here.
Identify a host to deploy the remote agent.
The host that you identify must meet these minimum system requirements for the basic configuration of a single source agent:
- CPU: 4 (CORE/CPU)
- Memory: 8 GB
- Storage: 8 GB
Note:
Ensure that the host is able to make a JDBC connection to the applicable database.
Depending on your host, complete these steps:
- For a Linux machine, do the following:
1. Copy the Docker image to the host and load it using this script:
```
docker load -i <docker image zip>
//List the images docker images
```
2. Create and run the Docker container using this script:
```
docker run -d -p 9091:9091 --name remoteagent -v /faw/software/remoteagent/config/:/faw/software/remoteagent/config/ -v /faw/logs/RemoteAgent/:/faw/logs/RemoteAgent <docker image Id>
```
  If the remote agent user interface isn't accessible, then run this script:
```
sudo docker run -d -p 9091:9091 --name remoteagent --network host -v /faw/software/remoteagent/config/:/faw/software/remoteagent/config/ -v /faw/logs/RemoteAgent/:/faw/logs/RemoteAgent <docker image Id>
```
  Note:
  Ensure that the logs directory in /faw/logs/RemoteAgent/ has write permissions and the config folder in /faw/software/remoteagent/config/ is present in case you need to add custom properties.
3. If you've a firewall that prevents you from accessing the remote agent, then ensure that you complete these steps before starting the Docker container for the first time:
  1. Disable the firewall in the Linux host where Docker is deployed.
  2. Start the Docker container.
  3. Check the logs to see if the container is started.
  4. Enable the firewall.
  5. Open the port using this script:
```
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port=9091/tcp --permanent
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
sudo iptables-save | grep 9091
```
4. Verify that the container has started successfully using this script:
```
run '$ docker ps'
```
5. Configure the extract service URL to connect using this information:
  1. Sign in to the remote agent user interface using http://<host>:9091/extractservice-remoteagent/index.html.
  2. Configure the extract service URL that the remote agent connects to and configure any outgoing proxies if required using the applicable extract service end points. You can form the extract service url based on your Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence URL by replacing ui/oax/ with the extract service context path. For example, if your product URL is https://myinstance.example.com/ui/oax/ then the extract service URL would be https://myinstance.example.com/extractservice.
6. In the remote agent user interface, click Configure to configure the agent.
7. Copy the configuration details from the text box or download the configuration details.
  You use it to set up the connection on the Data Configuration page in Oracle Fusion Data Intelligence.
8. Optional: If you need to upgrade the remote agent in the Linux host, then use the following script:
```
Stop Remoteagent docker
sudo docker stop remoteagent

Remove Remoteagent docker
sudo docker rm remoteagent

load the image from tar ball
docker load -i <docker image zip>   
 
Get Image ID from below 
sudo docker images

Run the image:       
sudo docker run -d -p 9091:9091 --name remoteagent -v /faw/software/remoteagent/config/:/faw/software/remoteagent/config/:Z -v /faw/logs/RemoteAgent/:/faw/logs/RemoteAgent:Z <imageid>
```
- For a Windows machine, do the following:
1. Load the docker using this script:
```
docker load -i .\RemoteAgentFrameworkDocker_19.5.tar.gz
```
  Ensure to replace "19.5" with the latest docker version number in the script.
2. Provide permission to the these directories
```
icacls "C:/faw/software/remoteagent/" /grant Everyone:F /t
         icacls "C:/faw/logs/RemoteAgent/" /grant Everyone:F /t
```
  Note:
  - icacls: This is a command-line tool used to manage file and directory access control lists (ACLs).
  - C:/faw/software/remoteagent/": This specifies the target directory where ACL changes will be applied.
  - /grant Everyone:F: This grants the "Everyone" group Full Control (F) permissions to the specified directory and all subdirectories and files recursively due to the "/t" switch. The user needs write permissions, hence "F" (full control was given). To use user-specific permission, replace "Everyone" with username.
3. Run the docker using this script:
```
docker run -d -p 9091:9091 --name remoteagent -v C:/faw/software/remoteagent/config/:/faw/software/remoteagent/config/
      -v C:/faw/logs/RemoteAgent/:/faw/logs/RemoteAgent <imageid>

About OpenCSV Standards

The CSV parser in the extract service for file extractors uses Opencsv. The csv files that are processed by extractservice must be compliant with the Opencsv standards.

See Opencsv File Standards. In addition to the CSV parser, the extract service supports files that are compliant with RFC4180 specification. The RFC 4180 CSV parser enables you to ingest single-line and multi-line data within your .csv files. The RFC 4180 parser supports ingesting data records with up to 99 line breaks. For more information on the RFC 4180 specification, see Common Format and MIME Type for Comma-Separated Values (CSV) Files.

Keep in mind the following:

While using special characters:
- For strings without special characters, quotes are optional.
- For strings with special characters, quotes are mandatory. For example, if a string has a comma, then you must use quotes for the string such as "Abc, 123".
- Escapes (backslash character) are optional.
- Backslash characters must always be escaped. For example, if there is a backslash in your data, use the following format: "Double backslash ( \\ ) abc".
- To manage quotes inside a quoted string, use a backslash inside the quotes: "Asd \" asd".
The Opencsv parser allows you to select one of these available characters as a delimiter:
Comma (,)
Semi-colon ( ; )
Pipe (|)
Tab ( )

About Date and Timestamp Formatting for CSV File-based Extractors

Extractors such as Secure FTP (SFTP), Amazon Simple Storage Service (AWS S3), and Oracle Object Storage Service use CSV data files that have date and timestamp fields.

For the CSV file-based extractors, use the format examples to provide the values in the CSV Date Format, and CSV Timestamp Format fields while entering the source connection details.

Note:

Ensure that the date and timestamp formats for the data files match the date and timestamp formats in your source; for example, if you've used MM/dd/yyyy and MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss in your source, then you must specify the same formats while creating the applicable data connections.

Examples

Example	Pattern
1/23/1998	MM/dd/yyyy
1/23/1998 12:00:20	MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm:ss
12:08 PM	h:mm a
01-Jan-1998	dd-MMM-yyyy
2001-07-04T12:08:56.235-0700	yyyy-MM-dd'T'HH:mm:ss.SSSZ

The guidelines to define the format are:

Letter	Meaning
M	Month
d	Day
y	Year
h	Hour (0-12)
H	Hour (0-23)
m	Minute
s	Second
S	Milli Second
a	AM/PM
Z	Timezone

Load Data from Oracle Object Storage into Fusion Data Intelligence

As a service administrator, you can use the Fusion Data Intelligence extract service to acquire data from Oracle Object Storage Service and use it to create data augmentations.

The recommended approach is to create one augmentation from one source table after acquiring data from Oracle Object Storage Service. After completion of augmentation, Fusion Data Intelligence renames the source table in this case and if you create more than one augmentation from the same source, all other augmentations may fail with a message that the source file wasn't found.

Store the following details in a text file to use while creating the connection to Oracle Object Storage Service in Fusion Data Intelligence:
1. In Oracle Object Storage Service, create the Remote Host Extract Files directory as the base folder in which you must place all your data files. Note down the name of this directory. See the "To create a folder or subfolder" section in Using the Console.
2. Obtain the URL of the Oracle Object Storage Service by signing into the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console and navigating to the bucket to get the details of the region, namespace, and bucket name. For example, the URL must be in the https://objectstorage.<region>.oraclecloud.com/n/<namespace>/b/<name of the bucket> format. See the "To view bucket details" section in Using the Console.
3. Obtain a user’s OCID by navigating in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console to Identity & Security, and then Users. On the Users page, search for a user who has access to the bucket used in the connector and copy the OCID. Obtain the tenancy ID by clicking your profile icon and then Tenancy in the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. Under Tenancy information, copy the OCID. See Where to Get the Tenancy's OCID and User's OCID.
4. Obtain the fingerprint for a user from the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Console. Navigate to API Keys under Resources on the user page, and then click Add API Keys.
