If you are trying to import it into the catalog it isn't supposed to work: a DVA file isn't a catalog object, it's a DV archive. A DVA is supposed to be imported from DV directly. More in general OAD does a lot more than OBIEE 12c on the DV side, therefore not sure you can really expect to import things as easily. If you would be using OAS 5.5 would be a lot better as that's in line with OAD 5.5.0. OAD 12.2.5. is quite a lot newer than any OBIEE 12.2.1..
