    If I recall correctly there was a bug with 12c and horizontal scaling ... you might need an SR with Oracle to get the specifics to be able to complete the task.

    Fairly certain you don't recall incorrectly, I too have battle scars from trying to get this to work, and agree totally an SR is the best way to go.

    There was a document published by Oracle sometime last year, it is taken offline recently. Yes, I created an SR and they are saying the document taken offline and currently it is for internal research only.

    I am waiting for a solution from them. My thoughts: we may to change one of the scripts as it is unable to pass/receive proper arguments.

    Solution below worked for me (as provided by Oracle Support):

    clone_bi_machine.cmd in the Path : <Oracle Home>\bi\modules\oracle.bi.sysman\syscomp needs to be edited as below:

    Changes in the file:

    --------------------------------------

    1) BEFORE:- CALL %ORACLE_HOME%\oracle_common\common\bin\wlst.cmd %ORACLE_HOME%\bi\modules\oracle.bi.sysman\syscomp\cloneBIMachine.py %DOMAIN_HOME% %listenAddress% %machineName%

    AFTER :- CALL %ORACLE_HOME%\oracle_common\common\bin\wlst.cmd %ORACLE_HOME%\bi\modules\oracle.bi.sysman\syscomp\cloneBIMachine.py "%DOMAIN_HOME%" %listenAddress% "%machineName%"

    2) BEFORE:- CALL %ORACLE_HOME%\oracle_common\common\bin\pack.cmd "-domain=%DOMAIN_HOME%" "-template=%packFile%" -template_name=pack_file -managed=true

    AFTER :- CALL %ORACLE_HOME%\oracle_common\common\bin\pack.cmd -domain="%DOMAIN_HOME%" -template="%packFile%" -template_name=pack_file -managed=true

    3) BEFORE:- echo %ORACLE_HOME%\oracle_common\common\bin\unpack.cmd -domain="%DOMAIN_HOME%" -template=%packFile%

    AFTER:- echo %ORACLE_HOME%\oracle_common\common\bin\unpack.cmd -domain="%DOMAIN_HOME%" -template="%packFile%"

    Copy paste may not work. Ensure you type it correctly.

    Attached the file for convenience. Rename as .CMD file from .TXT.

    Hope this helps.
