How to deploy RPD and catalog without Enterprise manger

PREPARED BY RAVI KUMAR LANKE Page 2

Many times the obiee service goes off because of deployment of inconsistent RPD and to make the

services up we need to deploy the previous RPD.

To achieve this we change the name of RPD and Catalog in NQSConfig.ini and Instanvceconfig.xml file

respectively just similar to obiee 10g RPD and catalog deployment method. But in obiee11g if we change

in NQSConfig.ini and Instanceconfig.xml file and restarted the services the obiee 11g revert back the

changes whatever we did manually.

Actually there is Central configuration enable by default in obiee11g which allows us to update the

configuration with interface. So to disable the central configuration and deploy the RPD and catalog with

obiee10g fashion follow the following steps
