Deploying the Repository File

In Oracle LSH 3.0 (similar to Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11g), the RPD corresponding to the Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition BA is just copied on to a local folder on the Oracle Business Intelligence server machine. The RPD folder path is defined in the obieedeploy.cmd. The RPD copied in the RPD folder is required to be deployed manually. Unlike Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11g, the Business Intelligence server services need not be restarted manually through Oracle Enterprise Manager. In Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 12c, RPD need to be uploaded through command line tool.

  1. Run this command to upload the Oracle LSH RPD to the Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 12c Business Intelligence server:
    %ORACLE_BI_INSTANCE%\user_projects\domains\bi\bitools\bin\datamodel.cmd uploadrpd -I <RPD filename> -W <RPD_Password> -SI <Service Instance> -U <Weblogic User> -P <Weblogic User Password>

    For example:

    datamodel.cmd uploadrpd -I C:\LSH_DP_SERVER\RPD\dmw30ut12c_win2016.rpd -W Password1 -SI ssi -U weblogic -P Password2
  2. After you upload the RPD file to the Oracle Business Intelligence server, log in in to the Business Intelligence server Analytics page as a WebLogic user.
  3. Click Administration from the right side of the screen. In Administration page, click Reload Files and Metadata to refresh the uploaded RPD file in the Oracle Business Intelligence server for further analytics use.
