In Home Directory I could see folder name like OAS550 , so I can guess the version as 5.5.0 One interesting this is that I could also see obi12214 (which seems to be OBIEE 12.2.1.4). Since I never requested OBIEE 12.2.1.4 installation, for a moment I assumed that this folder got created as part of OAS installation. Is it…

Are you sharing the snip from application deployments at EM? I went there and could not see modules and like you depicted

Thanks Chris , it helps!!! Just one last thing on this topic: I guess we can not see visual analyzer in Application Deployed (@EM) as we can see BI Publisher application? If yes then why? Is it not an separate application like Analytics and Visual Analyzer?

Hi Chris, I validates at OBIEE with below version: I am able to access VA with below URL for 12.2.1.3.0: http://localhost:9502/va/project.jsp?pageid=visualAnalyzer However not able to access DV for 12.2.1.3.0 (so it seems that DV was not available at least till 12.2.1.3.0 ) http://localhost:9502/dv/?pageid=home No If I go…

Hi Joel, Thanks for your help !!! Yes, I am able to access below URLs in OAS -5.5.0 http://meuqa:9502/dv/ui/home.jsp?pageid=home http://meuqa:9502/dv/?pageid=home So can I conclude that we will find VA till OBIEE12c and from OAS-5.5.0 onwards it is available in form of DV?

Let me check with concerned team who setup that environment, thanks for your input. If you don't mind, may I know what is the purpose of application policies and why those are required ?

Thanks Chris !!! Sure , Let me reach to Infaops team , who installed it to confirm if they have left out BIP. As I could not see BIP in deployed application, it seems to be likely reason. I went to application policies section at EM, and could not see any security policy for all 3 principal types - Application Role, Users…

I also verified Application Deployments at EM and could not see BI Publisher application in the list. Since I have not done this installation, I am not sure if there was option to ignore BI publisher app installation during installation. My assumption is that all these components should be available by default , post…

Hi Chris, I logged in as WebLogic user. Application roles are as below: Thanks,

Hi Gianni, It is 12.2.1.4.0.

Yes, Version is 12c.

Hi Jianni, Just one more question please , related to this. If SSO option is enabled in security - then also I would be able to login to Analytics and XMLPserver URL using this newly created user bi_admin? Thanks,

Thanks Gianni, Now I am able to see all options with bi_admin user as well which were available with weblogic user (after adding the user to application role at EM).

Hi Gianni, Thanks for your help !!! yes you are correct. Application roles are different for both the users: Weblogic user is having additional application roles: for BI_ADMIN user: I am not sure how I can add these additional application roles for bi_admin user. I tried to see such roles at console , but in vain. Kindly…

Thanks Chris!!!, yes I agree that I should start with understanding basics first , in order to be able to ask right query. Hence I edited my OP accordingly. Please bear with me for any lack of experience in asking queries. Thanks,

Thanks Chris for sharing guidelines !!! I will surely go through it to.

Thanks Chris, then I can conclude that XMLPserver is nothing but BIP reporting and Analytics is BI answrs.

Thanks Chris !!! Kindly bear with me as I may end up with incorrect question (considering me new learner): Can I find some thing like this under Administration tab of analytics as well? I could not locate JDBC (or other connections under Analytics Administration). I could access XML server through below URL and could see…

Hi Chris, Thanks !!! Yes sure I will be more specific with my queries. My goal is to explore this OBI thoroughly (all deployed apps) to evaluate it. Regards

Got it !!! I need to go to result tab for seeing data Thank you all , it solved.
