question is what killed your presentation services component? Any clues in the log files?

As I mentioned in my previous post, the quick way around this is to either create a DB link (if objects are in different databases) or create synonyms of one schemas' objects into the other so that the tables are all accessible from one connection pool.

Just taking a step back first of all, why do you only need part of the repository exported? You could consider converting your rpd to MDS-XML files which are a number of XML files stored in a number of sub directories. http://www.ateam-oracle.com/oracle-business-intelligence-mds-xml-in-rpd…

You haven't said what your data sources are. Are they Oracle databases? I don't believe that this will work with multiple connection pools. My suggestion would be to get the data into one connection by creating a DB link for example from one data source to the other and that way, you can access the 2 data sources through…

As you mentioned, you just need a DB where you can create your RCU schemas. Installing on the same server as OBIEE would mean that you’d be sharing resources with OBIEE itself. In theory, you may encounter degradation of service if for any reason there’s a heavy load on the RCU database. For that reason alone, installing…

Can you be a bit more specific? What do you mean by "My Folder"? What have you done exactly? Which commands have you executed? Any errors in log files?

Sounds like you've overwritten your rpd. Your best best bet is to restore the file system from a backup (hopefully you have a backup) and then you can start again

+1! What OBIEE version? What OS? Which log files have you looked at? What were you doing that caused this?

What syntax are you using for your export/import? You can exclude user content from your BAR file thereby retaining user content in your target environment. Which version of OBIEE is this?

The Union reports need to be handled with care! Your suggestion seems to work although I still get some unexpected results. For example, the columns headers don't respond to the contents of the columns anymore. If you can be a bit more specific about the issues that you're now encountering, we might be able to help you out…

Two options I'd suggest (if I understand your issue correctly): * Build the union report from scratch with all columns that you require * Add new columns to the end of the existing columns

No worries @Adam Wickes. To be clear, I meant that you could install Java 1.8 into it's own Java home. You can then call the OBIEE migration tool from this home.

You could install Java 1.8 into a separate home on your 11g box and call the migration tool from the 1.8 Java home.

then unset the BI_PRODUCT_HOME variable and rerun the export

Unset it and rerun the import ensuring that your OBIEE services have been stopped beforehand.

Can you confirm the value of your BI_PRODUCT_HOME environment variable?

You’ll need to provide further information for any assistance. Where are you trying to pass this prompt value to? Is it a title? A column heading? a screenshot or 2 may be helpful.

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.

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
