OBIEE 11.1.1.5 Installation Scenario:

JDK Installation: IBM JDK 6 (SR9 FP1 or higher)

Create Schemas using Repository Creation Utility (RCU)

Install Weblogic 10.3.4+ on /obiee/Oracle/Middleware

OBIEE Installation : Install Software only on the same Weblogic Home /obiee/Oracle/Middleware

This installation type installs just OBIEE binaries which you must later configure.(Use this installation type for 64 bit machines or IBM AIX)

OBIEE Configuration: using config.sh

(This step will create domain containing WebLogic Admin Server and one or more managed server)

Note: OBIEE 11.1.1.5 installs Essbase Client by default.

OBIEE Development Client side tools:

Note: OBIEE 11.1.1.5 Installs Essbase Client by default /obiee/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_BI1/products/Essbase/EssbaseServer/bin

As OBIEE Development tools aren’t certified by with AIX, we’ll have to download the windows client side tools. Install it by running .exe
