Filegroup1 Error on 11g
One issue that is still present in the 11.1.1.5 version of OBIEE 11g is the corruption of the download files. This happens to me one more than half the downloads of the enormous software bundle that is now OBIEE. It seems that I am not alone, and a quick lap…

Another year, and another set of interviews, for another project, but still the same poor candidates. If you want a job on an OBIEE project, as an OBIEE developer then you should be able to answer simple questions about the BI Server, The repository and using Answers. AM I asking…
OBIEE 11g Integration With Active Directory – Part 2
In part one I shared with you the first section of the Oracle white paper on integrating 11g with AD. Following it to the letter worked fine, but there were a couple of glitches. The only groups we wanted to match into Application Roles were those with OBIEE in their…
