It has the required command (VBoxManage) you need to be able to fully switch off time sync, set the VM to a date in 2017 or 2018 (the VM has been released in 2016).

I found on a previous post this command to be used:
VBoxManage setextradata "SampleAppv607p-appliance" "VBoxInternal/Devices/VMMDev/0/Config/GetHostTimeDisabled" 1
I tried to launch it from the folder where the vm is installed and the one where the virtual image is stored but none of them worked
Another issue, probably no connected to this one, I cannot reach these links that I found in the Vm, even disabling proxies

VBoxManage is a command coming with VirtualBox, go in the folder where VirtualBox is installed to find it (it's probably not into your path and therefore not visible without a full path). Also, because you are on Windows it's probably going to be VBoxManage.exe
All the links inside the VM only works if the VM knows how to resolve demo.us.oracle.com to localhost, inside the VM just replace the domain by localhost and they will anyway work. From outside the VM you have to use the IP of the VM (assuming networking configured correctly and not firewall interfering) instead of the domain.
While the VM will now work, are you sure you need it? It's a 6+ years old thing, so you maybe shouldn't be using it...

My supervisor gave me this source to become familiar with obiee. If you have any advice I'll glady take it

Create a fresh and fully modern Oracle Analytics Server instance.

Sorry, this installation works for every OS?

Well, to become familiar with OBIEE the VM only works for half the work, and it would be the same half as the public demo instance that exist (it was linked somewhere on the official site, can't remember where).
The VM, just like the demo OAC instance, will let you get familiar with the front end.
For the backend, the RPD with the models, you will need to install the Admintool first (it only works on Windows, therefore it isn't installed in the VM) and setup a connection to the VM or download a copy of the RPD etc.
And still: looking at the backend of OBIEE without a proper training to follow is quite useless because you will only guess what is is what and why (and the SampleApp, because of the need was to showcase a lot of things in a single place is by far not an easy RPD to understand).
-
The Docker image will work on any x86-64 OS with Docker. Both Windows, Linux and some Mac (on the new M1 macs no idea if Docker works and if it can run x86_64 images).
It will give you a fully functional OAS (OBIEE 12c also available in another folder), but empty, no content out of the box, just a clean install.
Here again it all depends on what your manager mean with "becoming familiar with OBIEE".
PS: nothing personal or mean, but don't expect to know how OBIEE work by looking around only. You could manage to get the basics of the frontend, but little chances for the RPD and the specialties making OBIEE different from other tools out there.

Live demo environment is here:

The goal is to bacame familiar with the frontend, not with the dashboards, but with the connection to the databases and the 3 layers. That's what I know so far. I have never installed a docker before...are there some tutorials somewhere? I don't know where to start
