Configure Oracle Analytics Server Domain on Oracle ATP

Run the Configuration Assistant in silent mode to configure the Oracle Analytics Server standard topology on Oracle ATP.

Note:

The Configuration Assistant in silent mode supports only the TNS_ADMIN type connection string. Also, the TNS_ADMIN type connection string is supported only for SCHEMA_TYPE_EXISTING. The Oracle Autonomous Transaction Processing (ATP) database provides various services consumer groups. Oracle recommends you to always use “TP” ATP service name while running RCU and configuring Oracle BI Applications.
  1. Extract the downloaded ATP wallet file to a new folder (for example, /scratch/wallet).
  2. For silent mode, prepare a response file.

    Add the following parameters in the response file. These are examples. Make the appropriate changes as per your environment.

    [ENGINE]
    #DO NOT CHANGE THIS.
    Response File Version=1.0.0.0.0
    [GENERIC]
    #If false, omit the startup action at the end of the config assistant.
    PERFORM_BI_STARTUP=true
    SERVICE_INSTANCE_LIMIT=2
    #If empty string will default to BI logout page
    LOGOUT_URL=
    DOMAIN_NAME=bidomain
    DOMAINS_DIR=/scratch/Oracle/installation/Middleware/user_projects/domains
    CONFIGURE_BIEE=true
    CONFIGURE_BIP=true
    SERVICE_INSTANCE_MODE=SINGLE
    DOMAIN_WORK=LOCAL
    INSTALL_EXALYTICS_IN_MEMORY_SOFTWARE=false
    ADMIN_USER_NAME=WebLogic admin user name>
    ADMIN_PASSWORD=<WebLogic admin user password>
    ADMIN_CONFIRM_PASSWORD=<WebLogic admin user password>
    SCHEMA_TYPE=SCHEMA_TYPE_EXISTING
    EXISTING_DATABASE_TYPE=ORACLE_TNS_ALIAS
    DATABASE_TYPE=ORACLE
    FAN_CONNECT_STRING=<can be left blank>
    #In Windows, when you configure the Oracle Analytics Server domain, provide the 
    # connect string in the format below. Use "\\" as the path separator. 
    #Example: #CONNECT_STRING=biaoas2023_tp?TNS_ADMIN=C:\\biapps\\atp_wallet
    CONNECT_STRING=service_name?TNS_ADMIN=<ATP wallet extract folder> 
    EXISTING_DB_PREFIX=<Schema prefix set in RCU while crating BI schema>
    EXISTING_DB_PASSWORD=<DB password>
    PORT_RANGE_START=7001
    PORT_RANGE_END=7999
    #Location of static ports file.  Only set if PORT_RANGE_START is 'STATIC'
    STATIC_PORTS_FILE=
    #Select type of initial application.  Supported types are #APPLICATION_TYPE_BI_BUNDLE, APPLICATION_TYPE_EMPTY.
    APPLICATION_TYPE=APPLICATION_TYPE_EMPTY
    #Location of BI Bundle file to use as the initial application.  Only used if #APPLICATION_TYPE is APPLICATION_TYPE_BI_BUNDLE. 
    BI_BUNDLE_FILE=
    #Password which secures existing BI archive file, change if required 
    BI_BUNDLE_PASSWORD=<SECURE VALUE>
    #New password which will secure AppLite as it is modified with customer data, #change if required
    BI_APP_LITE_PASSWORD=<SECURE VALUE>
    BI_DEFAULT_SERVICE_INSTANCE_KEY=<if left blank then default will be set to SSI>
    
  3. If your DOMAINS_DIR is for example: /scratch/Oracle/installation/Middleware/user_projects/domains, then create the same before running config.sh or config.cmd.
  4. Change the directory to ORACLE_HOME/bi/bin.
  5. Run configuration in silent mode as shown, assuming your response file, oas.resp is available.
    • Linux: ./config.sh -silent -responseFile /scratch/oas.resp
    • Windows: config.cmd -silent -responseFile c:/oas.resp
After you successfully configure Oracle Analytics Server, continue with the Edit Your Input File section. See Edit Your Input File.
