The Migrate Identities utility updates old identity attributes in the Business Rules repository with new attributes from Shared Services. This utility enables movement of user ids across organizational units (OUs) and duplicate common names in different OUs. See the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Security Administration Guide for configuration information and a list of identity attributes for external providers.
Note:
Before you run the Migrate Identities utility, run the UpdateNativeDir utility in Shared Services. See the Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Installation and Configuration Guide.
The Migrate Identities utility file, MigrateIdentities.bat, is located in: <HYPERION_HOME>\products\Essbase\eas\console\bin\ The command line options are: -S<servername> -U<username> -P<password> where:
-S<servername> is the Administration Services server name.
-U<username> is the logon users name of an administrator
-P<password> is the password for the logon user name
Note:
If you want to suppress the password prompt, the -P parameter must be the first parameter. See Suppressing Password Prompts in Business Rules Utilities.
You can also migrate identities from Shared Services to Business Rules using the Migrate Identities button.
To migrate unique Shared Services identities to Business Rules:
Select Start > Programs > Analytic Administration Services > Administration Console.
On the Administration Services Login, enter a server name, or select one from the drop-down list. Then enter your user name and password, and click OK.
The Administration Services Administration Console window displays with Business Rules collapsed in the left frame of the window.
In the left navigation frame of Administration Services, expand the Business Rules node.
Right-click the Administration node, and select Migrate Identities.
In the Migrate Identities results window, review the results of the migration, and click OK.
Note:
If Planning is installed, clicking the Migrate Identities button in Planning automatically migrates identities to Business Rules in addition to Planning.
