What is the best way to move some metadata from one BI Env to another

OBIEE 12.2.1.4
I created some App Roles and assigned some Presentation services privileges to one of them
I have to move it (App Roles and Presentation services privileges) to another environment.
Ive found this article in manual
But probably there are different manuals with more description?

Using the BI Archive files are is the right method for migrating content (catalog, repository, security) from one environment to another.
Application Roles however, need to be done differently.Use this as a guide - http://www.elffar.co.uk/blog/obiee-12c-weblogic-user-migration

I haven't found any mention about my Application Roles inside 5 dat-files after
export (
exportIndex.dat
XACMLRoleMapper.dat
DefaultCredentialMapper.dat
XACMLAuthorizer.dat
DefaultAuthenticator.dat
)
And I created them in EM, not in Console.
And these example is about how to migrate roles from BI 11 to 12

To be clear, this is a 2 step process where you export the application roles from your source server and then import them into your target server. This is all done via the WebLogic Admin Console.

II know that it is 2 step process but I dont think that I should run import step because there is no new custom Application roles I created in EM.
These are 5 text-readable files and found some new info(like new Admin user Denis) but no info about roles

Ooo...I see a there are bugs and wrong info in Oracle docs.
Ok
I tried
export_service_instance ssi c:\temp\denis.bar
No success
Next I add
-Doracle.bi.servicelcm.producthome=%PRODUCT_HOME%
to
c:\Oracle\Middleware\Oracle_Home\bi\modules\oracle.bi.servicelcm\scripts\export_service_instance.cmd
AND exporting began
BUT

Have you seen this article?
Oracle Support Document 2406648.1 (OBIEE 12c: What Command Should Be Used To Import An Exported Service Instance Bar File In OBI 12.2.1.4?) can be found at: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?id=2406648.1
Also, look at this article - Oracle Support Document 2463087.1 (OBIEE 12c: PROBLEM_EXPORTING_BAR_FILE error when exporting BAR file) can be found at: https://support.oracle.com/epmos/faces/DocumentDisplay?id=2463087.1

Yup.
Ive already found out that I have to use export_service_instance for export.
And Ive found out that it is not work without parameter -Doracle.bi.servicelcm.producthome=%PRODUCT_HOME% added in system bi file.
As I mentioned before the process started but finished with error...

Ive tried to create bar file from another single(non-clastered) instance(no additional cusotm roles and settings in Pres services) and that worked.
Could It be because of clastered-instance?
Probably I should do anything else?
