Migration on OBIEE 12.2.1.1

dirkt

Has anyone successfully migrated an earlier version of OBIEE to the new 12.2.1.1? I'm trying to migrate from 11.1.1.7.0 and although the migration succeeded in 12.2.1.0 it doesn't work in the new version. The migration has changed with the addition of the config parameter on the command line but the migration fails with or without it. The source is running on Windows Server 2008 r2 and the target is Windows Server 2012 r2.

From the migration log:

Hi Dirkt,

Try stopping your OBIEE12c services and then import the BAR file generated from 11g.

Thanks.
