10.3.3.2.2 User Prompt If you prefer to have users enter their own connection string
information, you do not have to pre-populate the Oracle Internet Directory with data
source connection information at all. If you use SSOCONN when launching the report
but the Oracle Internet Directory does not already contain a connection string for the
key and the key is not publicly available to all users, the Oracle Delegated
Administration Services Create Resource page is displayed to the user, who must enter
their data source connection string. See Figure 10–2. Oracle Delegated Administration
Services stores the string entered by the user in the Oracle Internet Directory for future
use and rwservlet uses the newly entered connection string for the data source
connection string of the report.
Note: Because of this feature, many users can use the same report
URL even if they all use different data source connection strings.
Figure 10–2 Oracle Delegated Administration Services Create Resource
Note: In the Create Resource dialog, if you want to enter a JDBC
connection string, you can do so by entering hostname:port:sid
in the Database field.
10.3.3.2.3 Batch Loading Resources for OracleAS Reports Services are created in the
Oracle Internet Directory under the following entry:
orclresourcename=resource_name, cn=Resource Access Descriptor,
orclownerguid=guid, cn=Extended Properties, cn=OracleContext,
dc=us,dc=oracle,dc=com 1
Before You Begin You need to create orclownerguid=guid in the above Oracle
Internet Directory entry before you can proceed with the batch loading of resources. If
you used Oracle Delegated Administration Services to create your users,
1 dc=us,dc=oracle,dc=com is merely an example in this instance. You would normally enter
your own values for these items.
