As you are on OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.9) there are GUID between your accounts and OBIEE. Each account had a unique GUID and OBIEE uses the GUID to reference things. So even creating the same name in the weblogic embedded LDAP your new account will get the a new GUID and will be treated as a totally different account than the old…

Of course you can always copy things in the filesystem (remember to take the .atr file too as without OBIEE will even not see the object at all), but you will still need to reset permissions on it (which are inside the .atr in binary and the catalog manager is the tool able to play with that).

I don't have an OBIEE running now, did you try changing the permissions on the folder to grant you access? Otherwise offline.

Did you try using Catalog Manager? You must manage to do it using that tool (not from the web frontend of OBIEE, there you will not be able to do it).

Hi, Did you try running the RCU to do a drop of existing schemas? It maybe allows you to clean up properly. (Assuming you run the RCU with enough privileges)

Hi, Usage tracking tracks work done by the BI server. If the BI server execute a query it will be logged, if it doesn't there isn't a log in usage tracking. As there are various levels of cache, queries hitting the BI server cache are logged, actions being answered by the presentation cache (so refreshing the browser page…

I guess it's more a technical limitation. The analysis has filters, the dashboard can have one or many prompts which generate an almost infinite number of possible things. Sure by default a prompt is used to filter an analysis, but often it's used to drive content (hide/show things in the page) etc. Therefor it's…

Accessing the RPD in online mode in 12c (you don't post any version, so let's assume most recent) is going to be slow because of your network and various other factors but not really the disk. The RPD isn't supposed to be 10Gb, and it's also not stored as RPD itself. And working online is anways going to be slower than…

I see your point of view and how you felt (discouraging or adding more maintenance work), but on the other side you easily imagine that there is almost an infinite number of options and the tool just can't cover then all. That's the downside of a solution being "empty" and allowing you to build things freely matching your…

As far as I know there isn't a standalone EAS install for either OBIEE 11g or EPM 11g. As you can see in this video, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5XOIgeLJLV4 , you need to connect to the 11g EAS instance and there you can link to your Essbase 12c. Therefor it requires a full OBIEE 11g install.

Set your defaults in prompts based on session variables and set them to either last month or current month based on the user. Or duplicate the dashboard,…

As long as it isn't a floppy disk it will work. I'm not aware of hard drives recommandation because it doesn't really play a big role in OBIEE (OBIEE doesn't store/contains data). Only things written on your disk would be cache if enabled and temp files if you are asking your BI to do the job of a database.

Hi Eric, By default in 12.2.1.4 the login page isn't the OBIEE login page. It is the so-called "lightweight SSO", a "thing" giving you a kind of SSO which means you can go from the classic OBIEE Answers (/analytics) interface to the Data Visualization one without being prompted for a login. The issue is that this…

I guess I remember in 11g there was a way to export and import the users/groups. Did you try to google it? It gives results faster than trying to search the oracle doc Not sure anymore if it was done by GUI or by WLST (probably both will give the same result).

Hi, Users you create in the Weblogic embedded LDAP aren't supposed to be transferred by the BAR, so that's normal. Security is moved, it contains app roles and mappings between users/groups/app roles to app roles, but the users aren't really part of OBIEE. If you want to move users/groups from the Weblogic embedded LDAP…

I “smell” a poor selling tactic from a sales guy at Oracle... @3739384 : ask the person telling you that (I really don’t believe it’s in a document) a written confirmation. Will be useful next time you will need to buy some new license to have a great discount

Do you have a port number in your OBIEE url? A proxy is often used to redirect from standard http 80 or https 443 to the obiee port number, can also do SSL offloading by action as the ssl endpoint. As you have a loadbalanicer there are chances you don’t have a proxy in front of your obiee. You would need to ask your infra…
