Multiple Presentation Services -OBIEE

Hi,
I have 2 RPDs which needs to be deployed in OBIEE. I want to view the analytical reports of both these RPDs.
However the data sources of these 2 RPDs are different.
Also, I have installed OBIEE on Linux Machine.
Would it be possible to have 2 instances of the presentation services on the same Linux Box. If yes please let me know where I can find the procedure for the same.
Linux Operating System I am using is Oracle Linux 5.0 and OBIEE installed is the version 11.1.1.6.
Thanks,
Akshatha

Hi Deva,
I tried doing the Software only install.
I am facing the below issues. Request you to help me.
These are the details of the second installation :
Type: Software Only Install
     Installation Details
          Middleware Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home
          BI Oracle Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home/Oracle_BI1
The details of the first instance as as below
Type: Enterprise Install - Create New BI System
     Installation Details
          Middleware Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home
          BI Oracle Home: /u01/app/oracle/obiee_home/Oracle_BI1
1. Is it required that the BI Oracle Home be different each time?
2. Once done with the Software Install,will i be able to have another instance (like perhaps instance2 in my case) and have separate presentation services and RPDs or there is something which needs to be done with the Configuration Utillity.
3.What is the scaling up of OBIEE about? Does it also not create another instance of the server.
Thanks in Advance
Akshatha

  • Are multiple presentation services on a single server really unsupported?

    Hello all,
    I can hear everywhere that multiple presentation services on a single server are not supported by Oracle, but I can't find an official source stating this.
    All I could get is this page where it is stated that it is not recommended (but not unsupported):
    https://supporthtml.oracle.com/ep/faces/secure/km/DocumentDisplay.jspx?id=1111655.1&h=Y
    Can anyone please advise ?
    Thank you in advance,
    Cedric.

    Hi cedric,
    It is not recommened is what i can say,in simple words it gets jammed when you try to build a request from any of the services.
    It is not supported cant be the reason,it has a work around to go and do that
    Follow these blogs Multiple presentation servers using the same RPD
    http://obiee101.blogspot.com/2009/10/obiee-multiple-repositorys-multiple.html
    UPDATED POST
    There is no such official document saying about its support by oracle,but oracle wont support handling two servers in production as it is not legal and it is going against the product capabilities.I would suggest you not to go with it.
    Cheers,
    KK

  • Deploying Multiple Presentation Services on a single Windows machine

    Hi All,
    Have any one tried to deploy multiple presentation services in single windows machine. Can any one give me clear steps configure presentation services to access different repositories at a time.
    Thanks in Advance

    Right the conclusion was to either have everything in the same repository or create different presenation service instance. Can anyone please tell us how can different instances of presenation service be created in the same machine.

  • Cannot Start Presentation Services - OBIEE 11g( 11.1.1.5)

    I Just restarted the presentation services from EM and everything is running fine now.

  • Multiple presentation servers using the same RPD

    Hi everyone,
    So as most people know, the iPhone has a cool app that allows you to login and look at your OBIEE content. In theory it's really cool, but as it turns out, a lot of the cool graphs default to Flash and Flash is not supported by the iPhone.
    Using a flag in the instance config file, its possible to default all graphs to png's instead of Flash. But that causes all the interactive drillability to go away since it's just a flat picture.
    It seems that an elegant solution to this issue would be to have two presentation services running; one that defaults to Flash and one that defaults to png's. Then let the OC4J container determine if the device accessing the website is a mobile device or a full client browser. Mobile devices get routed to the png's and non-mobile devices go to the standard Flash page.
    Although not supported by Oracle, it is possible to setup multiple presentation services on the same server. In fact, RNM has a great blog about how to accomplish this (http://rnm1978.wordpress.com/2009/08/25/multiple-rpds-on-one-server-part-1-the-bi-server/).
    I was able to setup two presentation services (AnalyticsWeb and AnalyticsMobile) and point them at the same catalog folder. That way you don't have to duplicate you're work.
    The one thing I couldn't figure out how to do was to point them at the same RPD file. Ideally, we would have one rpd file with the master metadata definitions, and both presentation services would drive from that single RPD. However, the BI Server throws and error of the same RPD appears twice in the NQSConfig.ini file. I also created a shortcut to the master RPD, but upon startup, the BI Servers said that it was not a valid repository file.
    Worst case scenario, I could just use copy & paste to duplicate the single repository. And then each time I updated one, I would just need to delete the other and re-copy. But that seems a little tedious and I was hoping for a more elegant solution.
    Does anyone know how I could get the NQSConfig.ini to let me point to the same RPD twice? Is there some kind of symbolic link or image I could create?
    If it helps, I'm working with OBIEE 10.1.3.4 on a Windows Server 2003 environment with the OC4J standalone container.
    Thanks for the help!

    Hey Everyone,
    Just to add the finishing touch to this thread, the following can be implemented to perform the redirect based on mobile versus traditional PC devices.
    In the folder: C:\OracleBI\oc4j_bi\j2ee\home\default-web-app
    I created the following OBIEE.html file
    <!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.01 Transitional//EN">
    <html lang="en,us">
    <HEAD>
    <TITLE>Test OBIEE Redirect Page<TITLE>
    </HEAD>
    <BODY>
    <script type="text/javascript">
    var agent = (navigator.userAgent).toLowerCase();
    var weburl = './analytics/';
    var moburl = './analyticsMobile/';
    var reg_exp = /(ipod|iphone|android|opera mini|blackberry|palm os|palm|hiptop|avantgo|plucker|xiino|blazer|elaine|windows ce; ppc;|windows ce; smartphone;|windows ce; iemobile|up.browser|up.link|mmp|symbian|smartphone|midp|wap|vodafone|o2|pocket|kindle|mobile|pda|psp|treo)/;
    if( reg_exp.test(agent) ) {
         window.location = moburl;
    else {
         window.location = weburl;
    </script>
    </BODY></HTML>
    The javascript gets the USER agent variable and does a regular expression match to see if it's any popular handheld device. If so, it redirects them to the mobile address. Otherwise the user is directed to the standard site.
    All I need to do is pass around the URL:
    http://localhost:9704/OBIEE.html (instead of the standard http://localhost:9704/analytics)
    And users will be dynamically sent to the correct location.
    thanks everyone!

  • Error while creating Bi presentation service in obiee(11.1.1.3)

    Hi,
    Im using Jdeveloper(11.1.1.5) and OBIEE(11.1.1.3)
    I created a ADF application in Jdev and when I try to create a BI presentation services I'm getting the following error message.
    *Connection attempt failed.*
    *java.lang.RuntimeException: Unable to retrieve logon token. This version requires a BI build that implements the version 7 SOAP interface. Please verify that you are using the correct BI version.*
    does the creation of presentation service in jdev(11.1.15) work only with OBIEE(11.1.1.5) and not OBIEE(11.1.1.3).
    please help!

    Venky,
    The SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.3 is version 6 (v6) as you can see from its WSDL URL.
    This would leave one only to believe that the SOAP interface released with OBIEE 11.1.1.5 is version 7.

  • Error in deploying OBIEE 10.1.3.4.2 BI Presentation Service on WAS6.1

    Hi,
    I am working on environment setup using OBIEE suite version 10.1.3.4.2 on a UNIX (AIX6.1 platform) system (which is a remote machine for me).
    Installation of OBIEE 10g suite (all components) on AIX server is completed, and ever the BI server and BI Presentation Server (PS) services are running on the system.
    IBM WAS6.1 is being used as the web application server to connect to BI presentation server from my local desktop (windows 7 platform).
    Both BI PS and WAS6.1 are installed on the same AIX system. Hence, the OBIEE_HOME/web/app/WEB-INF/web.xml file has host name as localhost and port number as 9710.
    I am facing issue in configuring the WAS6.1 to support the BI Presentation services. Steps involved in the config are –
    1. Deploy the analytics.war file from OBIEE_HOME/web/ using 'Install new enterprise application' option on WAS6.1 admin console.
    2. Context root provided is /analytics
    3. Start WAS Application server
    4. Start OBI Presentation server
    5. Access URL: http://nameserver:port/analytics/saw.dll?Dashboard – this is the test url provided in OBI documentation.
    nameserver is the host name of the AIX server on which both BI PS and WAS6.1 are installed
    Port - this is the HTTP port provided in the configuration details of WAS6.1 profile. ( I am not using 9710 in the url, if that is used, HTTP 404 - address not found error is generated.)
    For step 5 above, I am getting HTTP 500 error while trying to access this URL.
    Error message in SystemOut.log file in WAS6.1_Profile_home/logs/server1/ is as below.
    Can anyone please help in understanding and resolution of this error as well as configuration of BI PS. Thanks.

    Hi Dhar,
    thanks for a quick reply...
    Yes even I thought it is reaching the PS, as the error log mentions error with 'SAWbridge'... but I am not sure how to debug further.
    If it helps, below is a output of checking if the PS is running on the server. But I am not sure if the PS continues runnning once the service is started.
    $ ps -ef | grep sawserver

  • OBIEE 11g Active Directory Presentation Service Error retrieving user

    Hi Team,
    It was a great help from all of you on our OBIEE learnings.
    I recently configured Microsoft AD on Weblogic rather than RPD. But felt like I am in a desert of helplessness due to the complicated and lengthy documents and settings :(
    Still when I configured everything and logged in to presentation services using AD Credentials, observed following error!
    Error retrieving user/group data from Oracle BI Server's User Population API.
    Error Details
    Error Codes: GDU6UYHS:OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P:SDKE4UTF

    Total blockout! Anyone faced this issue earlier

    You need a user to be present in your Active Directory Base DN that will be used as the BISystemUser. You will either have to create this user in AD or use an existing AD user and then specify its credentials in Enterprise Manager (expand Weblogic Domain > bifoundation_domain (right click) > Security > Credentials). You will need to set system.user credential under oracle.bi.system map. Make sure your AD user's password never expires or you will run into problems in a few weeks time!

  • Issue in OBIEE 11g Presentation service.

    Hi All,
    I found a problem in OBIEE 11g Presentation service, i.e., When i created an analysis with few columns in the criteria, it showed proper result, but when i deleted one column and then again add the same column in the criteria, result did not show the added column.
    Anyone else find this issue?
    Please share your views..
    Regards.

    On the left hand corner you will see list of views in the report, on a basic analysis you will see title and table view. Select the table view and click on edit ( pencil symbol ). A new page opens up, scroll down a little and you will see the columns included and columns excluded sections. Make sure the column that you are trying to add to the report is not present in the excluded list. If it is, drag and drop it above.
    Answer points if question is answered.
    Thanks,
    -Amith.
