OBIEE 11G Installation : Simple Operating system – Win XP Professional RAM 2GB (4GB would definitely be better) We need to have Oracle 11gR2 installed We need to run RCU – Repository creation utility which can be downloaded from OTN. Location of the rcu.bat file in  d:\bishiphome\rcuHome\bin\rcu.bat
BI domain requires its own set of schemas (Metadata Services – MDS) & Business Intelligence Platform (BIPLATFORM) Another BI domain will require its own set of MDS & BIPLATFORM. We run RCU , to create the SCHEMAS & the TABLESPACES to which these schemas are associated To accomplish the above we need to have SYSDBA privileges DHCP – dynamic host configuration protocol – allows network devices to automatically obtain a valid IP address from the server. For computers having no permanent IP address we need to configure “Microsoft default Loopback adapter”
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Installing OBIEE 11g Once the perquisites are in place Oracle 11gR2 Database Having run RCU – repository creation utility we can start with the OBIEE 11g installation

Java components Non Java system components Configuration files Repositories Oracle BI Domain is made up of the following components
Some of the java components that are found within the BI domain BI Publisher BI Plugin BI Office BI Web BI Security
System components that are found within the BI domain, but not contained within the j2ee container. Controlled by Fusion middleware console (OEM) BI Server BI Presentation Server BI Scheduler BI Cluster Controller BI Java Host
Some of the Configuration  files that important for the Oracle BI domain NQSConfig.INI instanceconfig.xml NQClusterConfig.INI
Weblogic server domain Is made up of generally two server Administration server One or more “Managed” server
Administration server contains “Weblogic  server administration console” which is used to administer the managed servers. Starting , stopping the managed servers. Administration server also contains “Fusion middleware console” which is used to manage/administer OBIEE 11g components. For example BI plugin, security, BI publisher, SOA, BI office services.
Managed server contains the OBIEE components, these components are started using the “Oracle fusion middleware console” Starting the managed server also starts java components (through Node Manager) & the system components (through OPMN) If we want to start & stop any of the OBIEE components we do it through Fusion middleware console or through OPMN command utility i.e. opmnctl. The location for the same is  D:\MW1\Oracle_BI1\opmn\bin\
OPMN Controlled by fusion middleware console, maintains the system component processes. Performance monitoring through Dynamic monitoring system (DMS) Node Manager Provides process management service for the Administration server and Managed server processes.
Creating new user in OBIEE 11g Specify the following in an appropriate browser IE/Firefox/Chrome etc http://localhost:7001/console   enter appropriate username & password to access weblogic administration console  (Hint: can use the weblogic username and password specified during the installation  process of OBIEE 11g )
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Loading SalesApp Repository Currently SampleAppLite_BI0006 repository is loaded Screen shot of the same is provided in the next slide
 
In the left pane Expand Farm_biFoundation_domain Expand Business_Intelligence folder Select Coreapplication In the right pane Select the Deployment tab Then select Repository sub tab By default all the controls are disabled , to enable the same in order to load SalesApp repository, we need to click on Lock & Edit Configuration to enable the controls
 
 
 
 
 
Click the browse button to navigate to the repository folder & select the SalesApp.rpd D:\MW1\instances\instance2\bifoundation\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\repository\SalesApp.rpd After clicking the ok button in the update file window We need to click the Apply button on the  top right corner of the window Now click on the “Activate Changes” button
 
 
Click on “Capacity Management” tab and then select “Availability” sub tab. To apply the recent changes, we need to restart the BI Server Instead of restarting all the services , we have select the BI Server , click on the “Start Selected”. So only the BI Server service will restart
 
 
 
To verify the change , we need to open NQSConfig.ini file located at d:\MW1\instances\instance2\config\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1.  In the next screen shot , we can verify that the Sales App.rpd has been loaded under the repository heading.
