OBIEE 12c : Oracle Public URL for OBIEE 12c and OBIEE 11.1.1.9

Now its time for all of us to look at the new version of OBIEE and start upgrading. The thing about upgrades is we cannot commit to it until we see what our existing reports will turn out into. Thats the major thing for the users to approve the upgrade projects as they are afraid of something going wrong and also people fear change. But as everyone with brains say CHANGE IS GOOD, lets say the changing to OBIEE 12c is good. Here is the public url for accessing the OBIEE 12c Analytics

Informatica : Generating CSM from command line

When ever we raise a case with Informatica , it is a general practice to send the CSM file which will have the details of the environment , Informatica Version, OS etc which will help the case engineer to analyze the issue faster.

Some cases the CSM generated from the tool might not be correct as we might be using a client etc. So we might have to generate the same from command line where the Informatica server is installed.

Below steps will help you in getting the file from command line. In all the cases the user who runs the command should be the one who starts the service.

For UNIX 

Navigate to the below location from the command line

INFA_HOME/server/csm 

cd $INFA_HOME/server/csm

./csmagent
