Installing Oracle BI Applications on UNIX


Before you install Oracle Business Intelligence Applications on UNIX you must first complete the following installations:

  • Install the Oracle Business Intelligence infrastructure on Windows.

    For instructions, see Oracle Business Intelligence Infrastructure Installation and Configuration Guide.

  • Install the Oracle Business Intelligence infrastructure on UNIX.

    For instructions, see Oracle Business Intelligence Infrastructure Installation and Configuration Guide.

  • Install Oracle Business Intelligence Applications on Windows.

    For instructions, see Installing and Configuring Oracle BI Applications on Windows.

To install Oracle BI Applications on UNIX

  1. Copy the folder OracleBI\DAC\ from the Oracle Business Intelligence Applications installation directory in the Windows environment to the UNIX environment.

    NOTE:  You also need to copy the OracleBI\DAC\ folder onto any machine on which you want to run the DAC Server (for more information, see Configuring the DAC Server on UNIX).

  2. Copy the folder OracleBI\dwrep\Informatica from the Oracle Business Intelligence Applications installation directory in the Windows environment to the UNIX environment. Use the same directory structure in the UNIX environment as the Windows environment.

    This action copies pmrep, the Informatica repository file (Oracle_BI_DW_Base.rep), and the parameter files to the UNIX environment.
