RCU in OBIEE 11g??

Hi Experts,
I am good at OBIEE 10g, now i want to learn OBIEE 11g ...Now, can any one explain me or guide me with the docs why we need RCU in OBIEE 11g, why this Concept came in to OBIEE 11g? as we don't have that in 10g ??
Thanks in Advance.

Bhargav,
For all fusion middle components you need to have RCU

Installing Repository Creation Utility (RCU) for OBIEE 11g

Hello,
We are working on installing the Oracle Business Intelligence Entreprise Edition Plus 11g (v 11.1.1.6.0) for a POC in our Company's network.
We have to install the OBI Server and other server-side components on a IBM AIX (64-Bit) server; and the client tools on the local Desktops.
My queries:
*1. I am downloading the following softwares for this setup. Please help me understand is this the complete list of softwares required, or are there any more softwares required for OBIEE 11g intallation?*
List of softwares to be downloaded:
1) Oracle Business Intelligence, v. 11.1.1.6.0
- for AIX (64-Bit):
Disk 1 (1of2) (1.4G) (cksum 4182440856)
Disk 1 (2of2) (1.5G) (cksum 2020935297)
Disk 2 (1of2) (1.7G) (cksum 796853559)
Disk 2 (2of2) (1.3G) (cksum 685152953)
Disk 3 (1.6G) (cksum 1431984641)
2) Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.6.0)
for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) (320M) (cksum 2503314275) OR for Linux x86 (32-bit) (391M) (cksum 201758785)
Link for (1) and (2): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/downloads/bi-downloads-1525270.html
3) Oracle Business Intelligence Developer Client Tools Installer (11.1.1.6.0)
- for Microsoft Windows x86 (32/64-bit): (360M) (cksum 3317017977)
Link for (3): http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-enterprise-edition/downloads/bus-intelligence-11g-165436.html
NOTE: The JDK 1.5.0 is installed
*2. Where should the additional required software 'Repository Creation Utility' be installed in this case?*
I can see it is available for 32-bit OS (Windows or Linux x86), and that is why I suspect it to be a client-side software - which is to be installed on my local desktop. Hence, Can I download the Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.6.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) (320M) (cksum 2503314275)
Please clarify.
*4. I will not be installing any of the Oracle BI Applications, so will I require the software Oracle Business Intelligence Data Warehouse Administration Console (10.1.3.4.1)?*
I assume NO.
*5. IMP: Is there a Web server (E.g. Oracle WebLogic Server) included in the OBIEE suite, which gets installed in the default installation settings?*
OR Is there a need to download and install a separate Webserver on the AIX system before installing OBIEE.
Please reply ASAP.
Thanks,
Shweta.

Although it is a POC, but the installation has to be done on a AIX6.1 remote system, which will be used as a server in the enterprise, with 5 to 7 people accessing it. So 'simple install' is not suitable in this case.
The AIX6.1 system has a JDK 6 (64 bit).
I understand that the OBIEE 11g suite comes with a Oracle WebLogic Server (OWLS) installable included in the suite. However, in case of Software Only installation type, the OWLS needs to installed first and then the installer has to be started in 'Softwar Only' mode.
Could anyone please suggest:
*1) does 'Enterprise Install' type suite on the AIX6.1 system? If yes, does it mean that it will install JDK once again? is this recommended, as the host system is a shared server and the existing JDK 6 (64-bit) can be in use by other applications on this system.*
*2) If (1) is not true, is there a way to install the Oracle WebLogic server using the OBIEE 11g installer itself? or do I need to download the WebLogic server installer separately from the OTN site?*
Thanks in advance for any helping pointers on the above.
Please reply ASAP, as this is urgent.
Thanks,
Shweta.

OBIEE 11g installation got struck in "Configuration Process"

Hi
I am trying to instal OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.5.0 on Win 7 computer on MS Sql server Express.
Every went smooth with RCU, and OBIEE 11g installation upto step 12.
Now in Step 13, 'Configuration Process', the installer got struck forever showing:
BI Configuration -> 0%
Creating Domain -> In Progress
and rest of all the items in 'Recommended' status.
How can I make this move forward?
I see no activity going on in logs etc. Looks like installer got struck 'creating domain' activity forever.
Thanks for any inputs.

Error RCU-6083 during RCU installation prior to OBIEE 11g on Solaris

Hello,
I have an application server where I have an Oracle Database EE 11g running on Solaris 10 upgrade 9.
The server has the following characteristics:
- SUN V440
- RAM 16GB
- 2 processors Ultra Sparc III, 1.5GHz
- OS: Solaris version 10
- Disk space: 500GB
- Oracle Weblogic Server 11g (10.3)
- Ethernet 1 Gpbs
I want to install the RCU schemas and OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5.0) on this server so I verified all the pre-requisites for RCU and OBIEE and are OK.
I am using the Repository Creation Utility (11.1.1.5.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) to install the RCU because although the database is running on Solaris, the installer is not working through that server so I have a PC connected to the network and through that PC that has windows7 i could run the installer and connect to the db, using the SYSTEM user (because when i select sys as sysdba, although the password is correct, it doesn't connect to the db).
However, the installer is sending the ERROR: RCU-6083 regarding the pre-requisites for the BIPLATFORM.
I already use the following command alter system set processes=500 and restarted the db services, however the wizard installer is still sendig that error.
What can be done to succesfully install the RCU?
Thanks and regards,
Rebeca

Hello User,
Below my comments in blue:-
1) Do I need to install any Oracle DB (like to install 10g) prior to running rcu.bat file?
Yes
2) If I install Oracle 10g DB, does if create any compatibility issue while installing OBIEE 11g?
Check below the compatibility matrix

OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5) - RCU Schemas

Hi,
I have got a Virtual Machine (BI_Dev) with OBIEE 11g (11.1.1.5) installed but RCU schemas are pointing to the Database Server (DB_Dev). Now I would like to clone the BI_Dev virtual machine to BI_Prod.
I can create RCU schemas executing RCU in the DB_Prod database. But my question is how do I change BI_Prod to point these new schemas? Do I have to change any configuration files OR any other script that can do it for me?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
Login Weblogic Console with admin username/pwd.
Goto Services -> JDBC -> Data Sources.
Select Lock & Edit button
Select Data Source "bip_datasource" link in the available Data Sources list
Select Connection Pool tab
.... Change the URL|Driver|Properties|Password
Select Save button.
OR,
you have to go to WEblogic Enterprise Manager (http://<server>:7001/em/. Then go to Business Intelligence folder -> coreapplication. Go to "Deployment" tab and then to "Scheduler" tab. Change the database field to point to the new DB and apply changes.
Hope it help's
Thanks,
Satya

Error when trying to run the rcu.bat file as part of OBIEE 11g installation

when trying to run the rcu.bat file as part of OBIEE 11g installation on windows 7 64 bit I am getting the following error
"windows cannot find C:\Users\manoj\Desktop\Oracle.Make sure you typed the name correctly, and then try again".
Please help me how to overcome this error, I am not able to understand why it is looking for C:\Users\manoj\Desktop\Oracle.
Thanks
Manoj

after setting the ORACLE_HOME and Path environment variables also....I am still getting the same error...so is it like RCU can be run only on windows 7 32-bit machines and it does not work on 64-bit machines? and also it seems like the previous versions of OBIEE 10.1.3.X does not support windows 7 64-bit machines...
please help me finding a solution to this error....
and what are all the versions of OBIEE can be installed on windows 7 64-bit machines?
can't we install OBIEE 11g on windows 7 64-bit machines without including RCU?
thanks
Manoj

OBIEE 11G - Unable to login to presentation services

Hi All,
I have done a simple installation of OBIEE 11G on my coloud server with OS windows server 2003, SP2 , 32 bit.
Installation is 88% completed with,
Executing : opmnctl start coreapplication_obiccs1 and Executing: opmnctl start coreapplication_obips1 failed. Came to know that this is related to clusters and ignored the error.
RCU is installed in different database server.
Now i am trying to login to presentation services with weblogic as userid and password that i had given during installation of obi.
I am getting error that userid or password is invalid...
One thing i came to know from the thread OBIEE 11g Cluster Controller Failed to start is,
i have a bad IP in /etc/hosts... below are the entries in the file... can anyone please tell me what necessary changes i should do?
# Copyright (c) 1993-1999 Microsoft Corp.
# This is a sample HOSTS file used by Microsoft TCP/IP for Windows.
# This file contains the mappings of IP addresses to host names. Each
# entry should be kept on an individual line. The IP address should
# be placed in the first column followed by the corresponding host name.
# The IP address and the host name should be separated by at least one
# space.
# Additionally, comments (such as these) may be inserted on individual
# lines or following the machine name denoted by a '#' symbol.
# For example:
# 102.54.94.97 rhino.acme.com # source server
# 38.25.63.10 x.acme.com # x client host

I am able to open the same RPD in Offline mode but not in Online mode.
I Created a System DSN in ODBC Data Source Administrator for opening the RPD by using the OracleBIServer1 driver,still the issue doesnt resolve.
Any help is highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Praveen.

Hi All,
This question is answered.
The Resolution is
While Installing the RCU i created two instances so the RPD is not able to take the correct instance.After deleting the other instance now i am able to open the RPD in online mode as it is pointing to only one instance.
Thanks,
Praveen.

Help Me: Issue with "Unable to Sign In" Analytics Of OBIEE 11g

Hi Friends,
I have Installed OBIEE 11g in Windows Server 2008-64 bit.I have installed through "Software Only" and ran the "Config Script".
while I was running "Config Script" , One Component was failed i.e "Executing : opmnctl start coreapplication_obips1 -----> Failed".
I just ignored that one and continue the installation.All were successfully created expect that "obips1".
Used Requirements for OBIEE11g:
Oracle 11.2.0,jdk-6u24-windows-x64,wls1033_generic,ofm_rcu_win32_11.1.1.3.3_disk1_1of1(RCU),OBIEE 11g 11.1.1.3.0.
All servers are up(NodeManager,WebLogic,BIServices,opmnctl) and the status of "opmnctl" also shows are are "Alive".
But here the problem is I am unable to login "Analytics" and even I am able to login "Console" and "EM".
I am getting an Error while I was logging to the Analytics i.e "An error occurred during authentication. Try again later or contact your system administrator".
can any one help out how to fix the problem to Login Analytics successfully .
and suggest me that need to add any patches or other ways to fix the problem.
Please help me out. Thank you
Regards,
Chiranjeevi.

Can you check to see if you are able to login to Admin tool using the sampleliteapp Repository? Try the below solutions. If your not able to login to Admintool also, then solution 2 is more likely to fix the problem
Solution 1: (Restart BI services )
Try to restart all the BI Services.
1. Go to EM
2. Click on Business Intelligence to expand it
3. Click on Coreapplication, then Capacity Management tab
4. Click Restart All
5. Once all the compnents are restarted, the logon is enabled using the new port number being set.
Solution 2: ( Refreshing GUID's)
Open the NQSConfig.INI file for editing. For more information, see "Where are Configuration Files Located?" in Oracle Fusion Middleware System Administrator's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.
Locate the setting FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = NO and change its value to YES.
Modify the instanceconfig.xml file to instruct Oracle BI Presentation Server to refresh GUIDs on restart. Edit the file to add the last line in the following instruction.
<ps:Catalog xmlns:ps="oracle.bi.presentation.services/config/v1.1">
<ps:UpgradeAndExit>false</ps:UpgradeAndExit>
<ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>UpdateAndExit<ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>
From a terminal window, stop and restart the managed processes using the opmnctl parameters stopall and startall. You can use the parameter status to verify process status throughout.
The following components are involved: Oracle BI Presentation Server, Oracle BI Server, Oracle BI Scheduler, Oracle BI Cluster Controller, and Oracle BI JavaHost.
For information about using opmnctl commands, see "Using the OPMN command line to Start and Stop Oracle Business Intelligence System Components" in Oracle Fusion Middleware System Administrator's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.
Edit the NQSConfig.INI file to reset the FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = YES to NO and restart the Oracle BI Servers.
Remove, set to none, or comment out the line (see UpgradeAndExit in the following example) added to the instanceconfig.xml file (that instructs Oracle BI Presentation Server to refresh GUIDs on restart).
<ps:Catalog xmlns:ps="oracle.bi.presentation.services/config/v1.1">
<ps:UpgradeAndExit>false</ps:UpgradeAndExit>
<ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>none<ps:UpdateAccountGUIDs>
Restart the Presentation Server for the instanceconfig.xml file that was updated.
Make sure Oracle WebLogic Server and the system components are also running, if they are not running, restart them.
For more information, see "Starting and Stopping the Oracle Business Intelligence Components" in Oracle Fusion Middleware System Administrator's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition.
Let me know if that worked for you.
Thanks

OBIEE 11g install fails on step 7 (database connect string)

I've currently spent 2 days trying to install OBIEE 11g on two machines (independently). This first is a Windows XP SP3 test PC running 4GB RAM, whilst the second is a Windows 2003 virtual server with 3GB RAM. The Database is Oracle 10g (10.2.0.4.0) on AIX 5.3.
The DBA has successfully run the RCU on the Database and the schemas needed for OBIEE have been created. The BIPLATFORM schema has also been granted DBA privileges.
Now I've tried to run both the simple and the Enterprise install for OBIEE 11g, but it always fails at the same step (step 7 of 13: Database details). I have selected the following:
Database Type: Oracle Database
Connect String: hostname:port:instance, where hostname is the full server path eg xxxxx.uk.com and instance name is FFADEV01
BIPLATFORM Schema Username: As per username defined in RCU
BIPLATFORM Schema Password: As per password entered in RCU
If i change the connection string to FFADEV01.WORLD i get a 08031 error, whereas I am normally getting an 08035 error. The annoying thing is that I can connect to the schema using RapidSQL and the usernames and passwords as created in the RCU.
Any help greatly appreciated. Thanks

How was he able to install the BIPlATFORM schema using RCU on AIX? I thought RCU was only on Linux and Window platforms? I am about to install OBIEE 11.1.1.5 on AIX with a Oracle 10g DB but from what I read I wont be able to create the needed OBIEE schemas for the install because I won't be able to use the RCU on AIX. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.

OBIEE 11g on Windows 7 (64 bit)

Experts,
I tried installing OBIEE 11.1.1.5 (both Simple and Software only install) mutiple times on my Laptop running Win 7 (64 bit), but all the times the installation hangs at "Creating domain", the first configuration step. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, I did all the pre-installation steps before running the setup.exe. Does anyone installed OBIEE 11g on Win 7 (64 bit). If yes, please suggest what other things I need to do for a successful installation
Regards,
Sarvan

Hi
Even though officially this is not supported on Windows 7 OS, still we should be able to install it without any issues. I installed OBIEE 11g simple edition on Windows 7, 64 Bit OS and everything is working fine. Infact I used Oracle Express Database Edition 10g instead of full blown Oracle 11g database. I used this to run RCU to create 2 obiee schemas. It did took lot of time though on windows like around 50 minutes for the full installation which installed weblogic, obiee on top of this, then create a default domain named bifoundation. I could create some test reports, dashboards etc.
Here is another link that is also successfull in installing OBIEE 11g on Windows 7, 64 bit:
http://123obi.com/2011/05/obiee-11g-11-1-1-5-0-installation-on-windows-7/
I did not do anything special.
1. Download all the installers, RCU etc.
2. First in my Oracle 10g express edition, run RCU and create 2 schemas for OBIEE.
3. Run obiee installer and wait for about an hour. It came out successfully. Started the domain, started OPMN Services, started a browser with one url.
4. One thing is. I first installed Java/JDK 64 Bit version and put this in the PATH variable. So when I run java -version, it showed me this 64bit JDK. BUT even though I did this, internally the obiee domain still used its own JDK. I checked this in the startup script file named "StartStopServices.cmd" having one property like this:
JAVA_HOME=C:\Oracle\Middleware115BI\Oracle_BI1\jdk
And also under the domain root folder like bifoundation_domain/bin/setDomainEnv.cmd, I could see JAVA_HOME using the same above location.

OBIEE 11g upgrade wizard & installation on linux 64bit

Hi,
Is it that on Linux 64 bit machine, i should install OBIEE 11g in "Software Only" mode, only then upgrade wizard works correctly, if i need to do "Software Only" should i be installing weblogic server independently? or at high level what are steps to be followed.
Thanks,
Sree

Hi Sree,
What you are mentioning here is relevant for Windows 64 bits environment where you have to install the software only after installing web logic standalone.
The installer for Linux 64bit will install all the components for you except of course the RCU that you need to downlaod and install first.
Please refer to this link for more details about the installation
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10539/c4_installing.htm#CIHDJGIH
NB: Devlopement tools (Admin tool or catalog manager..) don't exisit for Linux, so you have to use windows for development

Adil

New to OBIEE 11g

hi all
im new to 11g, been working with 10g for the past 4 years.
just finished the install and and everything looks good.
open up the admin tool, and open the repository
and its asking me for a repository password to coreapplication_OH1406836271
what is this?
i enter the password i used when running the RCU, but it returns with incorrect repository password.
is this just the repository for the sample came with the install?
cheers
Ryan

Removing Admin Server in OBIEE 11g on AIX 6.1

Hello all,
1. We had installed OBIEE 11g software only install and configured a instance which we had to uninstall later on. We had followed the steps provided by oracle for uninstallation of instance - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23943_01/bi.1111/e10539/c6_deinstall.htm#CIHIDHEB
2. We had also deleted the contents in bifoundation_domain.
3. Then we had deleted Managed server entry from console.
4. Then we executed config.sh for another instance and the port allocated to the new console is 7002, with a new set of Admin and Managed server.
Kindly suggest a way to delete AdminServer of the first instance, where console is using port number 7001.

Before going to install obiee11g,
just clean all existing obiee11g install registry, RCU Schema(DEV_BIPLATDFROM/DEV_MDS),
physical folders,
temp/tmp and services.msc (admin server/bi_server, OPMN/node manager -->delete services) , ODBC - obiee11g existing connection remove it via registry then reboot u r pc and then start install ...
better refer oracle note,
