Once we have the .jar file on our 11g system, we can run it to create the export bundle that contains all of our OBIEE and Publisher objects. The command is as follows:
$JDK_HOME/bin/java -jar bi-migration-tool.jar out $ORACLE_HOME $DOMAIN_HOME ./12import.jar
The following is a breakdown of this command:
The
outtells the tool to run in Export modeORACLE_HOMEis theOracle_BIdirectory inside MiddlewareDOMAIN_HOMEis normally theuser_projects/domains/bidirectory inside Middleware./12import.jaris the name and location of the.jarfile that holds our 11g objects. In our example, we have placed the.jarfile in our current directory, but we could replace that command with another file location
Once run, you will see output at the command line as the tool logs into the 11g system and performs the export. At the end of this process, you should see the following messages:
Export succeeded
Migration action succeeded...
