Moving Objects in OWB from one instance to another

Question

Ok - I have been using OWB for years now. What I did was set up my DEV - TEST - PROD as individual projects in one OWB Repository. Now I want to copy and paste a Map for example from DEV to TEST. When I do this I get all the old connection information. What I did to correct this is paste the map in TEST next I do a sync by position for all the tables - then I bring in the table from the TEST (do an OWB Import) now I sync by OUID - this all works fine - except the sync of the Lookups and Functions. I have to recreate the Lookups. Does anyone have a better process? I tried using one Project and then setting different configurations and deploying to multiple Targets but this is not good since I want to have the 3 environments (DEV - TEST - PROD).

Hi, you can import the OWB schema from dump file, you will must create or set some privilegies to new user on the new database and import the data, you can get more information on the Note:235658.1 on Metalink site.
Some privilegies are:
grant execute on sys.dbms_stats to <user>;
grant create database link to <user>;
grant create dimension to <user>;
grant global query rewrite to <user>;
grant create indextype to <user>;
grant create procedure to <user>;
grant create sequence to <user>;
grant create session to <user>;
grant alter session to <user>;
grant create snapshot to <user>;
grant create synonym to <user>;
grant create public synonym to <user>;
grant drop public synonym to <user>;
grant create table to <user>;
grant create view to <user>;
grant unlimited tablespace to <user>;
grant create trigger to <user>;
grant execute on dbms_aqadm to <user>;
grant execute on dbms_aq to <user>;
grant create any type to <user>;
grant AQ_USER_ROLE to <user>;
Also you can use Migration Toolkit to Oracle Warehouse Builder for move that schemas, i never use that utility but you can review the documentation on Oracle Site.
Luck.
Have a good day.
