OBIEE archive specific object

Question

Hi,

OBIEE 12.2.1.0.0

I am trying to 'model' some automated scripts(Linux) to manage objects in OBIEE catalog ..

I am successful with runcat.sh report command to list the required catalog objects..

what I am trying next is to runcat archive command on one object(analysis) (or a list of objects )..

What I can find from help or other sites is to archive a folder not just one object ... but I require just only one object is possible?

like I would like to archive following OBIEE Analysis from following location ... to folder ....tmp/arch/

/u01/app/oracle/product/middleware12c/user_projects/domains/bi/bidata/service_instances/ssi/metadata/content/catalog/root/shared/publishing/my_test_anls

Regards

Hesh

Pedro beat me to it. "outputFile" should be pretty clear , no?

Look at what the help prints for the archive command

You have it there, outputFile, you can specify the path you want

Thanks Christian! ... but I can not find anything in the help that says anything about the target path 'where' to archive.. ...I mean we need to move the object (Analysis in my scenario) from Catalog to somewhere else ?(like /tmp in my scenario) Syntax runcat.cmd/runcat.sh -cmd archive -folder -folderFromFile -skipFolder -skipFolderFromFile [-noTimestamps] [-noPermissions] [-dontRecurse] -[force]outputFile ( (-offline ) | (-online -credentials ) ) Thanks Hesh
