The new client is compatible with the iPad Retina display, and is
available at the iTunes App Store (Oracle Business Intelligence Mobile
HD -
http://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/oracle-business-intelligence/id534035015).
Note the following
-
The new client can only be used with a BI system to which the Oracle
Business Intelligence 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patchset has been applied. - The
new client can be installed on the same mobile device as the previous
version of the BI Mobile client.
For more information, see the "Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence Mobile".
Section 4: Important Notes To Read Before Installing The Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 Patchset
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Note the following:
*
Oracle Exalytics customers must not install this Oracle Business
Intelligence 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patchset unless explicitly told to do so in
the instructions for applying an Oracle Exalytics Patch or Patchset
Update. For more information see the "Oracle Fusion Middleware
Installation and Administration Guide for Oracle Exalytics In-Memory
Machine" and the Oracle Exalytics certification information.
*
The Oracle Business Intelligence 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 Patchset is cumulative,
and includes patches you might have already applied to the BI System.
Therefore, when you are installing the patchset, you might see warning
messages indicating that earlier patches are being rolled back. These
warnings simply indicate that oPatch is working correctly, and do not
require any action.
*
If you have horizontally scaled out the BI system on to multiple
machines, you must apply the the BI EE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patches and the
JDeveloper patch to all machines in the cluster.
*
When the patchset installation is complete and the BI System is running
again, end-users might experience unexpected behavior due to
pre-existing browser sessions caching javascript from the earlier Oracle
BI release. To avoid unnecessary support requests, ask all end-users to
clear their browser cache.
Section 5: Patchset Installation Instructions
---------------------------------------------
1. Backup the Oracle BI System, including the following:
* the ORACLE_HOME\bifoundation\server directory
* the ORACLE_INSTANCE\bifoundation\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\repository
* the \bifoundation\jee\mapviewer.ear\web.war\WEB_INF\conf\mapViewerConfig.xml, if you have modified it
2. Download the following Oracle BI 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patch zip files from My Oracle Support into the Oracle BI Home directory:
* 14223977
* 14226980
* 13960955
* 14226993
* 14228505
* 13867143
* 14142868
Tips:
* Find all the above patches together by entering the following search criteria:
- Product/Family = Oracle BI Suite EE
- Release = 11.1.1.6.2 BP1
*
The location of the Oracle BI Home directory will depend on where
Oracle BI was originally installed, and the platform. For example:
- on Linux, AIX or Solaris, the Oracle BI Home directory might be prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1
- on Windows, the Oracle BI Home directory might be c:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1
3. Download the following JDeveloper patch zip file from My Oracle Support:
* 13952743
4. Stop the BI System (in the order shown):
* BI system components, by typing the following at the command prompt: opmnctl stopall
* WebLogic Managed Server(s)
* WebLogic Admin Server
5. Clear the files associated with the Oracle BI EE Catalog Manager binary cache as follows:
a. Go to the /bifoundation/web/catalogmanager/configuration/ directory (using a file manager application or the command line). For example:
* on Linux, AIX or Solaris: if the Oracle BI Home directory is prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1, go to the following directory:
prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1/bifoundation/web/catalogmanager/configuration/
* on Windows: if the Oracle Home directory is C:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1, go to the following directory:
c:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1\bifoundation\web\catalogmanager\configuration\
b. Remove the following Catalog Manager cache directories (if they exist):
* org.eclipse.osgi
* org.eclipse.equinox.app
6.
In the Oracle BI Home directory, unzip each of the Oracle BI 11.1.1.6.2
BP1 patch zip files into a subdirectory below the Oracle BI Home
directory. For example:
* on Linux, AIX or Solaris: you might extract patch 14223977 into prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1/14223977
* on Windows: you might extract patch 14223977 into c:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1\14223977
7.
At the command prompt, change directory to the Oracle BI Home directory
using the command appropriate for the operating system.
For example:
* on Linux, AIX or Solaris: if the Oracle BI Home directory is prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1, type the following:
cd prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1
* on Windows: if the Oracle BI Home directory is C:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1, type the following:
cd c:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1
8.
At the command prompt, set the ORACLE_HOME, PATH, and JAVA_HOME
environment variables as appropriate for the operating system.
For example:
*
On Linux, AIX or Solaris: if you are using a command shell derived from
the C shell, set the environment variables by typing the following:
setenv ORACLE_HOME $PWD
setenv PATH $ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
setenv JAVA_HOME $ORACLE_HOME/jdk
setenv PATH $JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
setenv PATH $ORACLE_HOME/OPatch:$PATH
*
On Windows: if the Oracle BI Home directory is
C:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1, set the environment variables by typing the
following:
set ORACLE_HOME=C:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
set JAVA_HOME=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdk
set PATH=%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%PATH%
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\OPatch;%PATH%
9.
At the command prompt, for each of the extracted Oracle BI 11.1.1.6.2
BP1 patch directories (starting with 1 of 7, then 2 of 7, and so on):
a. Change directory to the extracted patch directory.
For example:
* on Linux, AIX or Solaris: if you extracted patch 14223977 into prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1/14223977, type the following:
cd prod_mwhome/Oracle_BI1/14223977
* on Windows: if you extracted patch 14223977 into C:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1\14223977, type the following:
cd c:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1\14223977
b. Apply the patch using the command: opatch apply
c.
When the message 'Opatch Succeeded' is displayed, repeat the above
steps for the next patch directory until all the patches have been
applied.
10. Verify the Oracle BI 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patches have been applied successfully as follows:
a. At the command prompt, change directory to the Oracle BI Home.
b.
Run the following command to list the patches that have been applied to
the Oracle home specified by the ORACLE_HOME environment variable
(currently the Oracle BI Home):
opatch lsinventory
c.
Confirm that all the Oracle BI 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patches shown in Section 1
appear in the list of applied patches (along with any other patches
that have previously been applied to the BI System).
11.
Copy the BIPublisherDesktop32.exe and BIPublisherDesktop64.exe files
from the Oracle BI Home/clients/bipublisher/repository/Tools directory
to the Middleware
Home/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/config/bipublisher/repository/Tools
directory.
12. If you backed up mapViewerConfig.xml because it had been modified, copy the backed up file to its original location at \bifoundation\jee\mapviewer.ear\web.war\WEB_INF\conf\
13.
You can now apply the JDeveloper patch 13952743 (that you previously
downloaded), by following the instructions in the JDeveloper patch
Readme file. Note the following:
*
As described in the JDeveloper patch Readme file, you apply the
JDeveloper patch to the Oracle Common Home directory. Therefore, be sure
to follow the instructions in the Readme to change the ORACLE_HOME
environment variable to the / directory before applying the JDeveloper patch.
* You must complete the final step to start the Weblogic Admin Server, and then to start Managed Server(s)).
14.
When you have applied all the BI EE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patches and the
JDeveloper patch, start the BI system components by typing the following
at the command prompt: opmnctl startall
15.
Having installed the Oracle BI 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patches, you must also
update the Oracle Business Intelligence Client Tools (Oracle Business
Intelligence Administration Tool, Oracle Business Intelligence Job
Manager, and Oracle Business Intelligence Catalog Manager) as follows:
a.
Deinstall the Oracle Business Intelligence Client Tools from the
Windows machine on which they have been installed, by following the
instructions in chapter 5 of the "Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation
Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence".
b.
Reinstall the Oracle Business Intelligence Client Tools by following
the instructions in chapter 5 of the "Oracle Fusion Middleware
Installation Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence".
16. (Recommended) Minimize disk usage by:
* deleting the downloaded BI EE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 patch zip files and the JDeveloper patch zip file
* deleting the extracted patch directories (for example, C:\prod_mwhome\Oracle_BI1\14223977)
Section 6: Post Installation Instructions

How-To: Applying OBIEE Patch 11.1.1.6.2 BP1
Introduction
I have for a long time been thinking about starting blogging about the bits and pieces around Oracle Business Intelligence and Data Warehouse technology currently available. This is a first post, focused around applying the latest bundle patch 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 released June 30th 2012, for Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition (OBIEE) 11.1.1.6.0. This release is a patch release, which means you must first install OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 or upgrade your current 11.1.1.3 or 11.1.1.5 version to 11.1.1.6.0. The instructions below are based on the following setup:- OBIEE 11.1.1.6.0 installed on an Oracle Enterprise Linux 32-bit Virtual Machine, the Weblogic Server is version 10.3.5.0
- The Virtual Machine is running in Oracle VirtualBox on a 64-bit Windows 7 host with 8GB RAM
- MW_HOME=/home/oracle/obiee/
- BI ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
The high-level steps
The text below will go deeper into these steps:- Preparation
- Download the patches from My Oracle Support (3,90GB in total)
- Unzip Patches
- Transfer patches to the ORACLE_HOME folder
- Shut down services
- Apply OBIEE Patches
- Tasks to be carried out after patching
1. Preparation
Start by reading the README.TXT that comes with the first patch (14223977). It gives all the instructions necessary for patching your existing system.But you should be aware of the following warnings in the Read Me file before continuing:
- This patchset is available for all customers who are using Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition 11.1.1.6.0, 11.1.1.6.1, and 11.1.1.6.2.
- This is not meant for Oracle Exalytics installations - wait for the official Oracle Release Patchset PS1 for Exalytics - this will also include patches for other components in the Exalytics system.
2. Download Patches
For downloading the files, you log on to My Oracle Support (http://supporthtml.oracle.com), and search for the patches. This process is described very well by Robin Mofatt, you can see his excellent description by clicking the link below. If you are using a Unix-based operating system, you can even use the WGET functionality described by Robinhttp://www.rittmanmead.com/2012/07/downloading-obiee-patches-from-oracle-with-wget/
One good tip is to use shift-click selecting all the patches you want to download, instead of downloading them one at a time.
 |
| Selecting the patches to download - make sure you choose the right operating system |
These are the patches you need to download - make sure you get the right version for your operating system:
- 14223977 - 1 of 7 - Oracle Business Intelligence Installer
- 14226980 - 2 of 7 - Oracle Real Time Decisions
- 13960955 - 3 of 7 - Oracle Business Intelligence Publisher
- 14226993 - 4 of 7 - Oracle Business Intelligence ADF Components
- 14228505 - 5 of 7 - Enterprise Performance Management Components Installed from BI Installer 11.1.1.6.x
- 13867143 - 6 of 7 - Oracle Business Intelligence
- 14142868 - 7 of 7 - Oracle Business Intelligence Platform Client Installers and MapViewer
- 13952743 - Interim Patch for Bug: 13952743 - JDeveloper
3. Unzip patches
When you have downloaded all 8 patches, unzip the files into each its own folder. When the files are downloaded and unzipped, you should end up with this structure: |
| The folder structure on Windows 7 after unzipping all 8 patches - ready to be applied in the virtual machine |
If you do not work on a Virtual Machine, please skip down to the next step
Next step is to map the E:\Oracle Software\Shared folder as a shared folder in the VM, and then mount the Shared folder in the Virtual Machine:
 |
| Add a shared folder to the virtual machine by going to Devices - Shared Folders |
 |
| This is the information entered when adding a shared folder to the virtual machine |
Then open a terminal window (command line) in the Linux virtual machine, and type in the following commands:
sudo mkdir /mnt/sf_Shared sudo mount -t vboxsf Shared /mnt/sf_Shared
You will probably be prompted for a password, enter the password for root to be able to mount the shared folder.
This now means you will have access to the downloaded and unzipped patch files in the /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/ folder from within the Linux virtual machine.
4. Transfer patches to the ORACLE_HOME folder
Next step is to copy the files to the correct place. The patch instructions recommends that the patch folders be copied to the Oracle_BI1 folder (ORACLE_HOME) in the middleware home folder.We start by only copying the 7 OBIEE patches first - the JDeveloper patch will be applied later.
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p14223977_1111621_Generic/14223977 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p14226980_1111621_Generic/14226980 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p13960955_1111621_Generic/13960955 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p14226993_1111621_Generic/14226993 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p14228505_1111621_LINUX/14228505 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p13867143_1111621_LINUX/13867143 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p14142868_1111621_Generic/14142868 /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1
The patches are now in the correct position, and are ready to be applied.
5. Shut down services
You should shut down all services:- OPMN: ./opmnctl stopall
- Managed Server: $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/stopManagedWeblogic.sh bi_server1
- Admin Server: $MW_HOME/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/stopWeblogic.sh
6. Apply OBIE Patches
First, we need to prepare the environment variables. The ORACLE_HOME, JAVA_HOME and PATH variables all need to point to the OBIEE Installation. Change the first line below to make sure it is pointing at the right folder in your installation:cd /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1Once this is correct, you can now apply the patches. Apply the patches one at a time, and make sure that you get a positive result:
export ORACLE_HOME=$PWD
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
export JAVA_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME/jdk
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/OPatch:$PATH
cd $ORACLE_HOME/14223977
opatch apply
cd $ORACLE_HOME/14226980
opatch apply
cd $ORACLE_HOME/13960955
opatch apply
cd $ORACLE_HOME/14226993
opatch apply
cd $ORACLE_HOME/14228505
opatch apply
cd $ORACLE_HOME/13867143
opatch apply
7. Tasks to be carried out after patching
7.1. Copy new files
Copy the BIPublisherDesktop32.exe and BIPublisherDesktop64.exe files from the Oracle BI Home/clients/bipublisher/repository/Tools directory to the Middleware Home/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/config/bipublisher/repository/Tools directory.cd /home/oracle/obiee/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/config/bipublisher/repository/Tools/
cp /home/oracle/obiee/Oracle_BI1/clients/bipublisher/repository/Tools/BIPublisherDesktop* .
7.2. Apply JDeveloper Interim Patch
Check that you have the correct version of Perlexport ORACLE_HOME= /home/oracle/obiee/oracle_common
perl -v
The resulting version should be greater that 5.00503 . If not, you should follow the instructions in this MOS note:
Note 189489.1 - Oracle Data Server Interim Patch Installation
- https://support.oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show&?;type=NOT&;id=189489.1
Confirm that opatch and unzip are in your path:
which opatch
which unzip
If you have come this far without any errors, you can apply the last patch. If you are not succesful, double-check the ORACLE_HOME environment variable, and make sure that it points to the oracle_common folder, and not the Oracle_BI1 folder.
export ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/obiee/oracle_common
cd $ORACLE_HOME
cp -R /mnt/sf_Shared/OBIEE_Linux_11.1.1.6.2_BP1/p13952743_111162_Generic/13952743/ .
cd $ORACLE_HOME/13952743
opatch apply
7.3 Starting the System
When the last patch has been applied succesfully, start the Weblogic Admin server (and Managed server if you are not running a Simple install type)- Weblogic AdminServer:
/home/oracle/obiee/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/startWeblogic.sh- Weblogic Managed Server bi_server1 (if your installation is of type "Simple", this step is not necessary):
/home/oracle/obiee/user_projects/domains/bifoundation_domain/bin/startManagedWeblogic.sh bi_server1- Start BI Components with opmnctl
/home/oracle/obiee/instances/instance1/bin/opmnctl startall
7.4 Client Configuration
- Clear browser cache on client PC- Uninstall BI Administration Tool
 |
| FInd the "Change Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition Plus Client Installation" icon in Start - All Programs - Oracle Business Intelligence Enterprise Edition folder. |
 |
| Select "Uninstall Product" to remove the old Oracle BI Administration Tool |
- Log on to OBIEE (http://<servername>:<port>/analytics)
- Go to Home Page (Click Home in the Link bar in the top right)
- In the bottom left, find the "Get Started..." Section, click on "Download BI Desktop Tools" and select "Oracle BI Client Installer" for the operating system you are using:
 | ||
| After logging in to OBIEE, click the Home link |
- Uninstall & Install BI Publisher Desktop Tool
Follow the same procedure as described above for uninstalling and reinstalling the Oracle BI Administration Tool.
Conclusion
That's it! You should now have patched your system, and be ready to use Trellis Views, the new Mobile BI App for iOS, etc. as Mark Rittman goes through in a detailed manner in this post:http://www.rittmanmead.com/2012/07/obiee-11-1-1-6-2-bp1-new-features-oracle-bi-mobile-hd-and-patching-upgrade-considerations/
I will be returning with more posts, I am planning on sharing more information on the Mobile App for iOS, Exalytics installation, and more - with inspiration on my current assignment as an Oracle BI & Data Warehouse Consultant.
