The DV (Data Visualization) component is not shown under Deployments after installation.

We have recently installed Oracle Analytics Server (OAS) 2025, but we noticed that the DV (Data Visualization) component is not listed under the deployments in the WebLogic Console.

We require the DV component in order to download the migration utility for migrating from Oracle BI EE 11g to OAS.

  • Is the DV component supposed to be deployed automatically as part of a standard OAS 2025 installation?
  • If not, what steps are required to enable or deploy it post-installation?
  • Do we need to re-run the installer with specific options, or is there a way to add the DV component separately?

  • You don't need to find the deployment in WebLogic, and you better don't start going around in there (there are probably 50+ deployments in your bi_server1 managed server, the DV one is one of those, can't remember the name, but you don't need to be there at all).

    After you installed the product, and after your run the configure step, by default your OAS 2025 doesn't have any SSL deployed, and the default port of the bi_server1 managed server is 9502 (you can confirm this port in WebLogic Console if it doesn't work).

    Just open http://<host>:9502/dv and you will be prompted for a login (the admin account you created during the configuration phase).

    You can open that URL just to make sure your OAS 2025 is working fine.

    Then follow the doc https://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/bi/analytics-server/migrate-upgrade-oas/migrating-oracle-business-intelligence-11g.html#OASMU-GUID-49CDC85E-E823-4FC9-A4FF-729723181041 , the "Generating the BI Migration Tool (bi-migration-tool.jar)" part of that page on how to generate the JAR file from the command line.

    The doc is wrong in saying you can download the JAR from inside DV, because that was removed in OAS 2023 (maybe, not fully sure about the date).

  • Hi,

    Welcome to the Oracle Analytics community and forum.

    You shouldn't look for DV as a WebLogic component. It is by default part of the product and there is no way to not install it, therefore you have DV with your fresh OAS 2025 installation. Just access the product after it is started, and by default the login take you in DV automatically.

    In WebLogic you can find it, but it is a deployment, not a full component like the various process (BI Server, BI Presentation Service etc.).

  • Going a step forward, in case you look for that migration-tool.jar, it isn't in the GUI of DV anymore (removed some time ago from there).

    But read https://docs.oracle.com/en/middleware/bi/analytics-server/migrate-upgrade-oas/migrating-oracle-business-intelligence-11g.html#OASMU-GUID-49CDC85E-E823-4FC9-A4FF-729723181041 , you can generate it by executing a script in your OAS 2025 installation (once it is fully installed and configured).

    Just run that script, I got a jar at the end, but no clue if it does work as I don't have an OBIEE 11g around anymore.

    @Gianni Ceresa Correct I'm trying to download 'migration-tool.jar'

    Does this mean that downloading it using the Console is not going to work. Is that right?

    I presume the only option is to use the command line?

    You mentioned that “In WebLogic you can find it, but it is a deployment,” but when I check the Deployments section in the WebLogic Console, I don’t see any component named 'dv' or something similar. Could you clarify what the DV deployment is named or how to identify it?

    Also, regarding your comment: “Just access the product after it is started, and by default the login takes you into DV automatically”—does this mean I should access DV using a URL like https://<host>:<port>/dv, or is it a different path?

    Great! Thank you Gianni Ceresa

    I managed to access DV, and as you mentioned, there is no option to download the migration utility (using Console: first approach).


    The documentation should be updated by Oracle, as it causes confusion. Additionally, using the console appears to be a faster approach compared to the command-line method, so we ended up spending extra time trying to make the first approach work.

    This option was removed from the Console in OAS 2025. It was available in OAS 2024 and earlier releases.

    We will have the documentation updated to reflect that product change.
