Refresh GUID’s after moving new RPD & Catalog

Refresh GUID’s after moving new RPD & Catalog Posted on September 6, 2012 by pradeep28186@gmail.com In OBIEE 11g , when we load new RPD and Catalog we need to refresh the user GUID’s else we get error at analytics log in. To resolve this error we have to manually edit the configuration files to instruct Oracle BI Server and Oracle BI Presentation Server to refresh the GUIDs on restart. Follow below steps, 1. Open the NQSconfig.ini file 2.Locate the parameter FMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = NO ; change it toYES. 3.Open the instance config.xml file for editing, find out false then comment the and add like below example false UpdateAndExit save the changes in instance config.xml 4.Then using omnctl command restart the services ex. C:\middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl stopall C:\middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startall 5.After restarting of services, revert the changes. i.e. in NQSconfig.ini resetFMW_UPDATE_ROLE_AND_USER_REF_GUIDS = NO ; & in instance config.xml comment & uncomment like false UpdateAndExit 6.Restart the services again using opmnctl command. http://pradeep28186.blog.com/2012/09/06/refresh-guids-after-moving-new-rpd-catalog/
