OBIEE 12 Commands and File Locations etc

OBIEE 12 Commands / Locations - Will keep Adding them

Uploading and Downloading an RPD for Offline Editing

Before Uploading and Download an RPD .

First of all get your service key ( You need to open the wlst Weblogic Scripting Tool)

weblogic offline

/ORACLE_HOME/oracle_common/common/bin/wlst.sh

Once Logged in run the following

List Service Instances

listBIServiceInstances('/u01/Middlewarehomebi12/user_projects/domains/bi12')

Once you have the service Key (" my key was "ssi" ... must be default)

Run the following to upload and download RPD (Call RPD what you Like)

Location of BITOOLS : Most RPD Commands 

[ORACLE_HOME]/user_projects/domains/bi12/bitools/bin

Download Command : 

sh data-model-cmd.sh downloadrpd -O myrpd.rpd -W Admin123 -SI ssi -U weblogic -P weblogic123

Upload Command :

sh data-model-cmd.sh uploadrpd -I myrpd_new.rpd -W Admin123 -SI ssi -U weblogic -P weblogic123

You will get completion messages after uploading and downloding such as Success !!

OBIEE 12 TNS Location for Oracle DB

ORACLE_HOME/user_projects/domains/bi12/config/fmwconfig/bienv/core/

Place your tnsnames.ora in the location above and run the ./stop.sh  from bitools directory then ./start.sh to bounce all services.
