ssi folder doesn't exist

Question

Hello Experts.

I am facing an issue while downloading/uploading the rpd in OBI 12c.

Issue:-

We have migrated from obiee  12.2.1.3.0 (Build BIPS-20170820114118 64-bit) (older version was 12.2.1.1.0 ) on cluster node.

All the services are up and running fine.

When we are trying to run the command

$ORACLE_HOME/user_projects/domains/bi/bitools/bin/datamodel.sh downloadrpd -u weblogic -p XXXpassword -o /export/home/obiee/Repository.rpd -w Admin123 -SI ssi

we are getting the below error

Service Instance: ssi

Operation failed.

Service Instance key "ssi" does not exist.

Any idea where should I find the logs or what I am missing.

Regards,

Abhi

Dear User,

Can you please check if you have a folder at below location:

<Domain_Home>/bidata/service_instances/ssi

Also, I presume, you have already moved the bidata folder to your NFS location (clustered node shared folder)
