2 INTRODUCTION
2.1 Document Overview and Purpose
In this document, we will go through the steps required to install, and configure OBIEE 11.1.1.7.0, and
Oracle BI Applications 11.1.1.7.1. The objective of this article is to create OBIEE/Oracle BI Applications
11.1.1.7.1 environment with Oracle Data Integrator 11g along with tools such as Oracle BI Applications
Configuration Manager and the Load Plan Generator for ODI 11g.

2.2 Understanding the Oracle BI Applications Architecture


Oracle BI Applications 11.1.1.7.1 uses Oracle Data Integrator 11g (11.1.1.7) to perform data loads, along
with a number of Java-based applications that are deployed into managed servers within the Oracle
Business Intelligence WebLogic domain. The figure below shows the Oracle BI Applications logical
product architecture, showing you how the usual WebLogic Server managed server deployed as part of
an Oracle Business Intelligence BI domain extended to include new Oracle BI Applications-related Java
applications, and a new managed server added that contains Oracle Data Integrator-related Java
applications

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

And Click Finish

The previous step installed the Oracle Business Intelligence Applications software, and now you need to
apply various patches to it and the other components you installed earlier on.
Oracle have supplied a script that uses the zip archive utility you downloaded earlier on to apply the
patches, and this script uses a parameter file that allows you to specify where the patch files are located.
NOTE: Before you start the patching process though, shut down all of your BI-related products from the
OBIEE Enterprise Manager. E.g.: http://10.12.250.211:7001/em.
Stop all the other services, including weblogic, and Node Manager. The sample scripts to start and stop
services are as below:

5.7

OBIEE Startup and Shutdown Scripts

SHUTDOWN PROCESS:
Stop all BI Services, including the node manager, and Process Manager Services

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

Shut Down other services

5.7.1

STOPPING THE ENVIROMENT CLEANLY VIA THE COMMAND-LINE:

Reverse the steps above with the following commands:


Note: You can look inside the respective scripts or the documentation for alternative or more secure methods.
You can also kill the processes, but you may risk corruption.
1.

Stop the Oracle Instance


$ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/opmnctl stopall

2.

Stop the OBIEE Managed Server (bi_server1)


$DOMAIN_HOME/bin/stopManagedWebLogic.sh bi_server1 t3://host.domain:7001 username
password
If running other managed servers, then stop them in the same manner.

3.

Stop the the WebLogic (WLS) Administration Server


$DOMAIN_HOME/bin/stopWebLogic.sh username password t3://host.domain:7001

4. At this point, since the node manager was started in another shell in the background, then you will
need to kill the JVM process that the node manager is running under. There should be no risk of
corruption at this point since everything is already shutdown. If you had started the node manager
in a shell (and not in the background), then you could just close the shell.
You can use the command ps -ef | grep [os user] to check for running processes under the specified
user and then kill the JVM process with kill -9 [PID] (where PID is the process id of the running JVM)

START-UP PROCESS:

1. Start the WebLogic (WLS) Administration Server in the background


Note: For username and password, you can:
o

pass username/pwd in the command line,

use the boot.properties file for an encrypted username/password

set as environment variables - WLS_USER / WLS_PW,

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

or pass WLS_USER /WLS_PW in the start scripts.


Please see the Oracle WebLogic documentation to determine what meets your need.
In these examples, you can name the logs whatever you desire.

Execute:

nohup sh $DOMAIN_HOME/bin/startWebLogic.sh -Dweblogic.management.username=weblogic Dweblogic.management.password=[_your_password_] > wls_start.log &

Next, tail the log to determine if the server started completely.


execute:
tail -f [log name]
wait until you see:
<WebLogicServer> <BEA-000360> <Server started in RUNNING mode>
there should be no further lines after this. If successful, proceed to step 3. If errors, correct them and restart.
Note: This takes some time. The terms "takes some time", "starts fast", "starts slow", "takes xx amount of
time" are all relative terms depending upon resources in your environment.

2. Start Node Manager

Note: In this example, the username and password are embedded in script via WLS_USER and WLS_PW. If
you need another method or a more secure method, like a boot.properties file, then please see:
Oracle Fusion Middleware Managing Server Startup and Shutdown for Oracle WebLogic Server 11g Release 1
(10.3.1)

Execute:

nohup sh $WL_HOME/server/bin/startNodeManager.sh > startNodeManager.log &

Next, tail the log to determine if the server started completely.


tail -f [log name]
Look for <INFO> <Secure socket listener started on port 9556>
Note: starts fast

3. Start the OBI Managed Server from the Enterprise Manager


4. Start the OBIEE System Components ( BI Servers -- c++ bits)
$ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/opmnctl startall

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

Next, execute: opmnctl status or opmnctl status -l (lower case L) to ensure the processes are started
properly/completely.
The output will look similar to this:
$ORACLE_INSTANCE/bin/opmnctl status -l
Processes in Instance: instance1

5.8

PATCHING PROCESS

To prepare the parameter file for the patching utility, use a text editor such as WordPad or Notepad to edit
the c:/Middleware/Oracle_BI1/tools/bin/apply_patches_import.txt file
Go to the path as below:

edit the txt file

and change the parameters by defining the right path as shown in example below:

As Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.7 comes with version 10.3.5 of Oracle WebLogic Server, you will now
have to upgrade it to version 10.3.6 using the upgrade installer you obtained previously from My Oracle
Support.
Before you do this though, start by shutting-down WebLogic Server and the various Oracle Business
Intelligence system components in the shut down process mentioned previously.
Unzip the upgrade installer patch file and start the installer as below:

Click done once complete.

NOTE: A number of post-installation steps now have to be performed, starting by configuring Oracle Data
Integrator to use Fusion Middleware rather than standalone security.

5.11 Configuring ODI Security and Plan Generator Files


To perform this security configuration, run the following commands
(Example screen shots are below)
/RSBI/Oracle_BI1/common/bin/wlst.cmd /RSBI/Oracle_BI1/bifoundation/install/createJPSArtifactsODI.py
embedded --ADMIN_USER _NAME weblogic --DOMAIN_HOSTNAME obia111171w64 --DOMAIN_PORT 7001 -DOMAIN_HOME_ PATH /RSBI/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain
When prompted, enter Ebi******* as the password for the WebLogic Server administration user.
Then, issue the following command-line commands to copy across the wallet files created by the above steps
to where Oracle Data Integrator is installed:
copy /RSBI/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/odi-client-config/embedded/cwallet.sso
/RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/client/odi/bin/

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

copy /RSBI/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/odi-client-config/embedded/jps-config-jse.xml
/RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/client/odi/bin/
Then, using a text editor edit the /RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/client/odi/bin/odi.conf document and replace
the line:
AddVMOption -Doracle.security.jps.config=./jps-config.xml
with the text:
AddVMOption -Doracle.security.jps.config=./jps-config-jse.xml
...so that the new wallet file is used when authenticating from Oracle Data Integrator Studio.
Then, install the Load Plan Generator plug-in for Oracle Data Integrator by unzipping the plugin archive file,
and then copying the plugin files to the Oracle Data Integrator Studio client installation.
cd /RSBI/Oracle_BI1/clients/biappsclients/odi unzip
copy lpggui.jar
/RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/client/ide/extensions
xcopy /RSBI/Oracle_BI1/clients/biappsclients/odi/* /RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/client/ide/extensions /s
/i /e

5.12 More patches to apply


NOTE: Stop all your Oracle Business Intelligence services.
run the following SQL script to update the Oracle ATG repository data:
from sqlplus login to RSTST_biacomp and run the fndtbs_11170_upg.sql
RSTST_biacomp/Ebi*********
@/RSBI/Oracle_BI1/sdf/DW/ATGPF/sql/fndtbs_11170_upg.sql

The patches that upgraded Oracle Business Intelligence as part of this installation also delivered an
updated version of the Oracle BI Administration tool, which needs to be installed in Windows
Desktop/workstation. To install this within your Windows, copy the required files, and install them
accordingly:
/installers/patches/biappsshiphome/generic
unzip BISHIPHOME_11_1_1_7_0_GENERIC_130409_1210_16492220.zip
16492220/files/clients/biserver/biee_client_install_x64.exe

File Ref: OBIEE_OBIA_ODI Installation on Linux

Rackspace- OBIEE-OBIA-ODI Installation

When prompted for an install location, choose c:/obi_client/, and also distribute this installer to all other
developers working with Oracle Business Intelligence Applications 11.1.1.7.1.
The installation process also imported some files that the data loading process later on will require. To
place these files in the correct location, again from the command prompt enter the following commands:
Mkdir /RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/etl
xcopy /RSBI/Oracle_BI1/biapps/etl
/RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi/etl /s /i /e
/RSBI/

5.13 CONNECT TO THE ODI REPOSITORY using ODI Studio


Start the ODI Studio, by using the ./odi.sh command from /RSBI/Oracle_ODI1/oracledi directory
Click on the Connect to Repository link, when the Oracle Data Integrator login dialog is shown, press the "+"
(New) button to bring up the Repository Connection Information dialog. Enter the following details to
create the connection:
Login Name: BI Admin
User: biadmin
Password: Eb********
User: RSTST_BIA_ODIREPO
Password: Eb*********
Driver List: Oracle JDBC Drive
Driver Name : oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver
URL : jdbc:oracle:thin:@obia111171w64:1521:orcl
Work Repository : BIAPPS_WORKREP
Once you've created this connection and used it to log into Oracle Data Integrator Studio, click on the BI Apps
Project > Mappings folder, and then you'll see the pre-built data loading routines that you use to load the
Oracle Business Analytics data warehouse, as shown in the figure below.
You have now performed the install part of the process.
