Hi,

OBIEE 12.2.1.0.0

I am trying to 'model' some automated scripts(Linux) to manage objects in OBIEE catalog ..

I am successful with runcat.sh report command to list the required catalog objects..

what I am trying next is to runcat archive command on one object(analysis) (or a list of objects )..

What I can find from help or other sites is to archive a folder not just one object ... but I require just only one object is possible?

like I would like to archive following OBIEE Analysis from following location ... to folder ....tmp/arch/

/u01/app/oracle/product/middleware12c/user_projects/domains/bi/bidata/service_instances/ssi/metadata/content/catalog/root/shared/publishing/my_test_anls

Regards

Hesh

    Thanks Christian!

    ... but I can not find anything in the help that says anything about the target path 'where' to archive..

    ...I mean we need to move the object (Analysis in my scenario) from Catalog to somewhere else ?(like /tmp in my scenario)

    Syntax

    runcat.cmd/runcat.sh -cmd archive -folder <path{:path}> -folderFromFile <path of inclusion list file> -skipFolder <path{:path}> -skipFolderFromFile <patxclusion list file> [-noTimestamps] [-noPermissions] [-dontRecurse]

            -[force]outputFile <output file>

            ( (-offline <path of catalog>) | (-online <OBIPS url> -credentials <credentials properties file>) )

    Thanks

    Hesh

    Look at what the help prints for the archive command

    You have it there, outputFile, you can specify the path you want

    Pedro beat me to it. "outputFile" should be pretty clear , no?
