How To Manually Deploy in SSIS

In order to run SSIS packages after having created an instance home with the IFS Analysis Models Installer it might be necessary to first handle necessary SSIS Security Administration.

The SSIS packages should be run through a SQL Server Agent Job, but it is recommended to verify the SSIS connection properties before the ETL process is run through the packages.

Do the following:

  1. Open the solution file All_IFS_SSIS.sln and import the .dtsx and .dtsconfig files from the sub folder called SSIS in the SSIS base folder.

  2. In BIDS, open the IFSDW.dtsConfig file and verify the connection string to point to your SQL Server database.

  3. In BIDS, open the IFSAppl.dtsConfig file and verify the connection string data to the Oracle database that you wish to load data from into the Data Warehouse

  4. In BIDS, open the IFSAppl_OLEDB.dtsConfig file and verify the connection string data to the Oracle database that you wish to load data from into the Data Warehouse.

  5. In BIDS, verify the folder paths of load tasks of the 0.1.001 Execute All.dtsx SSIS package, by modifying the Directory property of the SSIS packages in the properties window.

    The Directory path should point at the directory containing the SSIS packages. A relative path is ok.

  6. In BIDS, verify the Analysis Services Processing Tasks in packages 4.1.001 to 4.1.009, so that it points to the correct cube.

  7. Start by updating the cube connector in the Connection Managers tab. Either double click on the connection manager or right click and select Edit...

  8. Make sure that the database is the correct one by opening the Task Editor, Task -> Edit -> Processing Settings

    If the Object Name in the Object List is incorrect then:

    1. Remove the Object by clicking the Remove button
    2. Add the correct Object by clicking the Add... button. Select the top check box, representing the complete database object.
