If you have the UDML file you can generate your own RPD that includes all the Primavera subject areas. This allows for some flexibility with versioning, if there are any changes or releases of Oracle Business Intelligence that might cause conflict with your RPD. With the UDML, you can directly edit or update the UDML and generate a new RPD based on your changes. An added advantage is that it makes it easier to copy and paste to add more than 20 codes and UDFs rather than using the GUI OBI Admin tool for the RPD.
Prerequisites
- OBI is installed.
- Download the UDML file from the media pack.
Procedure
To generate a new RPD:
- On the machine with OBI installation, copy the UDML file, primavera_analytics_rpd.udml, from the P6_R31_Analytics\obi\rpd folder in the media pack.
Note: When generating the new RPD you will be supplying your own password.
- Open a terminal or cmd line prompt and go to the directory <OBI HOME>\bifoundation\server\bin folder.
- For Windows installations, run the following command:
nqudmlexec.exe -P prima123vera -I C:\temp\test\primavera_analytics_rpd.udml -O C:\temp\test\PrimaveraAnalytics.rpd
For Linux installations, adjust the directories as needed.
where:
-P is the password of the new RPD.
-I is the directory where the UDML file has been copied to.
-O is the directory where your new RPD will be created.
- If there are other options you would like to set, use the help in this utility to find the parameters.
- After the RPD is generated, deploy it through WebLogic, like the RPD that is shipped with P6 Analytics.
