Does RHEL 7 machine support OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.7?

(on RHEL 7 machine) because during the installation process i'm getting an error "error in invoking target 'agent nmhs' of makefile '/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/sysman/lib/ins_emagent.mk' "

    Hi,

    The certification matrix for OBIEE 11.1.1.7 doesn't cover RHEL7 just because it didn't exist back in 2013 when 11.1.1.7 was released.

    I guess I saw RHEL7 in the OBIEE 11.1.1.9 certification matrix, so maybe time to start thinking about upgrading? (to 11.1.1.9 or 12c)

    my current obiee 11g instances(11.1.1.7) are running on RHEL 5 machines, the plan is to move to RHEL 7 machines, so is it feasible to install OBIEE 12c in the new RHEL 7 machines and transfer the RPD's of the old instances(of obiee 11g)?
    Will there be any issues with the existing reports if they get deployed in OBIEE 12c from 11g?

    OBIEE 12c is certified for RHEL7 (look the details in the certification matrix Oracle Fusion Middleware Supported System Configurations  ).

    A migration from OBIEE 11g to OBIEE 12c is possible but it's not a "next, next, finish" job. There are many changes in the platform and some of your reports will maybe not work or work in a different way.

    Plan your migration correctly, define the regression testing scenarios and you will manage most of the problems (but it will not take 1 day, or your RPD is just 10 tables and you have 20 reports...).

    As the original topic of the thread is covered, anything else or you can maybe close the thread?

    For now it's still This question is Not Answered.

    one final question,

    what would be the consequence if i install OBIEE 11.1.1.9(on RHEL 7)and deploy RPD's created by 11.1.1.7?

    It is cool to do it right?

    Email. Hmmm. You know that's a service called "consulting" for which you normally pay.

    Plus it's bad netiquette in the forum.

    Well, it will be a cool task for sure

    From 11.1.1.7 to 11.1.1.9 is still a migration, there are things that will stop working maybe and things that are going to work in a different way.

    So it's not just about "copy/paste the RPD and reports" from one to the other and done.
