File locations and meaningshe file locations in OBIEE12c are very different fro !revious versions. I"ll u!date this !age when I find

soething I consider interesting.

First few naing conventions#

I installed OBIEE and $e%logic under d#&'$O'E12.

ORACLE_HOME would %e the installation irectory. (In y case d#&'$O'E12&).

BI_DOMAIN* soeties called DOMAIN_HOME is O+,C-EO'E/user!ro0ects/doains/%i (in y

case it is #&'$O'E12&user!ro0ects&doains&%i).

 SDD (ingelton ata irectory) is O',INO'E/%idata (for one host installation). (In y case it is

#&'$O'E12&user!ro0ects&doains&%i&%idata).

he catalog is located %y default at /serviceinstances/ssi/etadata/content/catalog

(In y case it is

#&'$O'E12&user!ro0ects&doains&%i&%idata&serviceinstances&ssi&etadata&content&catalog).

he +e!ository is (sort of) in /serviceinstances&ssi&etadata&dataodel&custoi3ations (In y case

it is#&'$O'E12&user!ro0ects&doains&%i&%idata&serviceinstances&ssi&etadata&dataodel&custoi3atio

ns).

he entire handling of +e!ository and Catalog is different in 12c and is handled via B,+ files. 'ore a%out

it later.

Configuration files are located under BIO',IN/config/fwconfig/%iconfig

(In y case #&'$O'E12&user!ro0ects&doains&%i&config&fwconfig&%iconfig)

Each in it"s folder. For e4a!le#

• instaceconfig.4l is in BIO',IN/config/fwconfig/%iconfig/OBI5

• N6Config.ini in BIO',IN/config/fwconfig/%iconfig/OBI

LOGS: ,re in BIO',IN/servers* each in his folder. For e4a!le sawlog.log is under

BIO',IN/servers/o%i!s1/logs. ,ll the logs are located in the sae !lace* including ,dinserver logs.

Not only the logs are here. 7ou will found t!* cache and other folders as well.

Most executale scri!ts are located in BIO',IN/%itools/%in

(#&'$O'E12&user!ro0ects&doains&%i&%itools&%in* in y case).

he start and sto! scri!ts are here and also the scri!t that collects diagnostic for Oracle u!!ort

(diagnosticdu!.cd for $indows and diagnosticdu!.sh for -inu4).

$e%-ogic cri!ting tool (wlst.cd / wlst.sh) is located in Oracleoe/oraclecoon/coon/%in

(#&'$O'E12&oraclecoon&coon&%in in y case.)

24 (tt.deliver'i3'log$.ot3co3at

12c is using a local N in Online 'ode and Offline 'ode and not using the N,'IN on a windows

achine.

owever you can view the data in the ta%les within the +5( $eird huh) as it using the networ8

tnsnaes.ora

 ,nyway goto the OBIEE ,dinistration tool installation location and !aste a tnsnaes.ora file.

te!s# goto the OBIEE ,dinistration tool installation location

9OBIEE Installation irectory:&Oracleoe&networ8

Create a irectory called adin

hen within that !aste a valid tnsnaes.ora file.

+estart the BI ,dinistration tool and everything wor8s as it should ie creating ta%les fro B.
