OBIEE 10G/11G - BI Server Command-line Utilities

You can use a variety of command-line utilities with the Oracle BI Server to make programmatic changes to your repository file, run sample queries, delete unwanted repository objects, and perform other tasks.

OBIEE have several executables files which permit you to automate some actions.
