Hello,

We are migrating OBIEE RPD and Catalog from one Server to another Server (this is not from Dev to Test or Test from Prod, it is from Server 1 to Server 2).

We have several folders, sub-folders in our catalog along with several MyFolders (there are over 20,000 users). We have the same Catalog folder structure in Server 2 as we have in Server 1. But, there are certain named permissions given on Server 1 that are not on Server 2. If I need to deploy the code form Server 1 to Server 2, I am thinking of simply taking the RPD and Catalog from Server 1 and putting it at Server 2.

My assumption is that all .ATR files, named access security, Manage Privileges settings will be copied from Server 1 to Server 2. Is this correct?

The other way is that I use Catalog Manager and move objects under Server 1 -> Folder A -> Sub-Folder B -> Obejct x from Server 1 to Sever 2. But, since I have too many sub-folders/objects, it might take lot of time. Also, there are several user folders so this approach may not be efficient.

Any issues you think I can encounter in moving the entire Catalog from Server 1 and putting it at Sever 2? It seems pretty straightforward to me.

Thank you for your time to help me!

    Object-level permissions like who can open/traverse/etc folders, analyses, prompts,..?

    Or do you mean "Privileges" are different?
