Yes, but no. Manually you can, if you have some hours/days/weeks depending on the amount of things to do. But you can code all that. You can use WLST to code the creation of application roles, adding a "member" (app role, user, group) in an app role, removing "members" etc.

Do not confuse the definition of a user and a reference to a user. The BAR contains references to users and groups, because users and groups aren't created in EM, App roles are created in EM and therefore those are created based on what has been exported in the BAR. The OAS security has 2 sides: in WebLogic console you…

It has app roles and the members of app roles (so app roles being member of another app role, or accounts and groups being members of an app role). I didn't check lately the full format of how the user and groups are referenced, it's possible that because you change the source (AD now), they are referenced differently and…

A BAR doesn't contains the security done in WebLogic console and doesn't affect that at all.

The OS/physical|virtual hardware doesn't, what could change my answer is if you did generate an open certificate covering all the possible subdomains (a wildcard certificate): in this case the same can be used for the 3 environments because the certificate will match the 3 different URL/domains (assuming they all share the…

You could, as long as the 3 environments have the same domain/url. So it depends, but probably you don't want it. If your 3 environments are behind 3 proxies installed locally (so that each can resolve the same domain/url to the local instance and not mix the 3), sure it can work. More realistically: I doubt you want that,…

https://community.oracle.com/tech/apps-infra/discussion/comment/16828162#Comment_16828162 So, the 3 layers you should be talking about the RPD: Physical layer, Business Model and Mapping layer and Presentation layer. That is the backend, the RPD is like all the knowledge that you feed into the brain to make decisions based…

The Docker image will work on any x86-64 OS with Docker. Both Windows, Linux and some Mac (on the new M1 macs no idea if Docker works and if it can run x86_64 images). It will give you a fully functional OAS (OBIEE 12c also available in another folder), but empty, no content out of the box, just a clean install. Here again…

Well, to become familiar with OBIEE the VM only works for half the work, and it would be the same half as the public demo instance that exist (it was linked somewhere on the official site, can't remember where). The VM, just like the demo OAC instance, will let you get familiar with the front end. For the backend, the RPD…

VBoxManage is a command coming with VirtualBox, go in the folder where VirtualBox is installed to find it (it's probably not into your path and therefore not visible without a full path). Also, because you are on Windows it's probably going to be VBoxManage.exe All the links inside the VM only works if the VM knows how to…

https://community.oracle.com/tech/apps-infra/discussion/comment/16823646 It has the required command (VBoxManage) you need to be able to fully switch off time sync, set the VM to a date in 2017 or 2018 (the VM has been released in 2016).

The VM is very old (too old), all the internal SSL certificates are expired by now. You need to turn off time synchronization and change the VM date back in the past. There is another thread in here covering exactly that, let me see if I can find it.

You can create BAR files by command line and schedule that. The front-end snapshop doesn't have a scheduler.

I did a "next next next" kind of import, didn't change anything and only clicked through the screen accepting what I had to accept.

SHA1 hash of SampleAppv607p-appliance.ova: 2c9ec1d27cd0a5352668c8dda4fd91221c6b2b2f MD5 hash of SampleAppv607p-appliance.ova: db035344497c3c8360948ee4b54e8297 My OVA has the same size as yours, so check the checksum to see if it's the same and that would confirm the OVA is fine. It imported fine in my VirtualBox 6.1 in…

The file size is correct, so in theory the file is fine. I just run an import on Virtualbox 6.1 to see if things work differently today than years ago when it has been released...

Can't you find some extra logs somewhere? (a log file or whatever) That error seem to be quite generic. How big is your OVA file? (just checking if all the parts were extracted fully)

Your files have the wrong names, rename them to have the currect file names and problem will be solved. Is your Windows showing you the file extension of files? Because you maybe believe you did rename files to be <something>.zip.001 , .002, .003 etc. While in reality they are still .001.zip etc. By default Windows DO NOT…

Have a look at the time series calculation functions, for example AGO(...) will let you access the previous month measure value. The concept of "previous record" is very vague as a previous record always depend on the sorting applied to your analysis, so I would try to stick with something more defined like "previous…
