[OBIEE 11g] Merging Two Repositories

Here are the simple steps to merge two repository in obiee 11g

You should have three rpd's for merging

1) Your Current RPD.  (BISAMPLE.rpd)  >>Current RPD<<

2) The RPD to be merged (the one you newly worked on) - sandeep.rpd >>Modified RPD<<

3) Dummy RPD. In My case dymmy.rpd  



If you don't have a dummy. rpd , create a new rpd from the admintools (do not import metadata).

ok now we are all set to start the merging.

Step 1: Open your Current RPD, ie BISAMPLE.rpd in my case and select the merge option.



Step 2: Provide the details of RPD as given below.



Select dummy.rpd as your original rpd and Sandeep.rpd as the modified rpd

and click next >>

Step 3: Define Merge Strategy



In this case select Decision = Current

Click next  finish >>>




The repository merge is now complete.

Open the BISAMPLE0009 (1).rpd (your target rpd) and reset the connection pools accordingly.
