1) Why are we able to see all other schemas along with the schema which we provided in the connection pool settings (odbc / OCI )

A: We will be able to see all other schemas along with the schema credentials which we provide, only when provided schema has a read / write permissions to the schemas available in that instance.

2) How will RPD get the number of records count even when we open RPD in offline and all the services are down.

A: Through ODBC / OCI

3) Is Between operator supported by OBIEE when you create joins in RPD ?

A: No

4) We have only 1 connection pool with "SCOTT" user but want to import tables from "HR" schema and view data. (Assuming SCOTT has read only permission to HR schema).

A: We need to select the check box in connection pool settings "Require Fully Qualified Table Names"

5) Can you delete a parent table if you have created an alias table

A: No,  Alias table has to be deleted first before deleting parent table

6) Can you delete a column from parent table if you have created an alias column

A: Yes.

7) Can you delete a column from Alias table

A: No

8) Can you delete an Alias table ?

A: Yes

9) Advantages of Alias Tables

A:
i) Alias can be given to assign business names (Better Readability for Business Users)
ii) Cannot Edit / Delete a column in the alias table
iii) Create a column / any changes in physical table will dynamically appear in the alias table.
iv) Self - Join is not supported in RPD, to accomplish this requirement we need to use Alias.
v) Circular Joins are not supported by OBIEE

Client / Server Applications

-
What is: The client–server characteristic describes the relationship of cooperating programs in an application. The server component provides a function or service to one or many clients, which initiate requests for such services. Advantages: * In most cases, a client–server architecture enables the roles and responsibilities of a computing system to be distributed among several independent computers that are known to each other only through a network. This creates an additional advantage to this architecture: greater ease of maintenance. For example, it is possible to replace, repair, upgrade, or even relocate a server while its clients remain both unaware and unaffected by that change. * All data is stored on the servers, which generally have far greater security controls than most clients. Servers can better control access and resources, to guarantee that only those clients with the appropriate permissions may access and change data. * Since data storage is centralized, update
