Rename "/analytics" in OBIEE 12c?

My customer needs to rename the "/analytics" link to "/analytics12c" for their OBIEE 12c deployment.  This is because the customer wants both the current 11g and the new 12c OBIEE instances to operational side by side for a period of time, and the

customer's proxy setup won't allow "/analytics" to be used for two separate systems.

Is there a way to rename the /analytics application in OBIEE 12c?

Thanks,

Rebecca

  • Hi Rebecca,

    Somebody is mixing things here (you or your customer or both).

    OBIEE 11g and 12c can't be deployed on the same weblogic, so it's impossible to have a conflict there.

    You talk about a proxy, so I guess your custom setup a proxy in front of weblogic to access OBIEE, but in that case you do not want rename /analytics (which would require to play with the weblogic deployments and all the possible issues related to that). Your 2 OBIEE are on different hosts or different ports, so all you need is to configure the proxy to forward requests for /analytics to OBIEE 11g and requests for /analytics12c to OBIEE 12c (a proxy can easily rewrite /analytics12c to /analytics when forwarding to weblogic).

    That's what a proxy does and is generally configured with just 5-10 lines of config in the proxy depending what the proxy is.

    But I really can't believe both OBIEE are deployed on the same weblogic requiring you to rename one of the 2.
