OBIS - Authentication failed: invalid user/password

I have accidentally removed BISystem role from EM --> Application Role, which I have added it back exactly as it is mentioned in the below blog:-
OBIEE Sagar !!! : Accidentally deleted BISystem Role
And also I made sure that the BISystemUser password is in Synchronise with Weblogic Console and in Enterprise Manager by following steps from the below link.
After doing the above two steps, I had restarted the BI Server, but it still failing with System components showing 5 Services Up and 1 Down. When I looked at most recent sawlog file, it displays the following message:-

Have no clue where to proceed for next step.
I could see a few archived forum posts, but didn't help. So I have posted this as a new question.
I greatly appreciate your help.
Thanks Rama

First top tip: You posted the content of a MOS Document which is explicitly forbidden and hence illegal by the terms of use of Oracle Support: https://www.oracle.com/support/supportportalterms.html
Second: re-installing the environment takes a lot less time than correct such a mistake - believe me.

No back up to revert to?

Looking at the OP's approach I would wager....No, there are no backups X-D

Hi Christian,
My apologies, I have seen some posts where some ppl have posted, so I posted thinking that it would help in understanding the issue.
Won't repeat that next time.
Thank you,

Hi,
So, if we don't have a backup, is it going to very difficult to fix this issue? I am not a DBA, I need to check with them.
Thank you,

Post a link. Never the content. Oracle Support is secured and only accessible with a valid Support Identifier for a reason.

Christian is telling you; -
1. Delete the document from MOS above or you could be in trouble with the boards
2. You will have to reinstall to fix it OR revert to back up - those are the options
0 -
Yes LFG said it right: backup or re-install.
By the way, why DBA? OBI is an analytical platform, not just a DB package.

Hi,
I have deleted the screenshot and just posted the link.
Thank you,
