Downloading the OBI11gBook RPD from GitHub
There was a recent comment from someone who attempted to download the RPD where they questioned that the resulting downloaded file was corrupted. The files are not corrupt but you must be sure to download the files correctly from the GitHub repository. You may want to take a moment to understand how a SCM like GitHub works. You can do this by either cloning the repository, using the download button, or by selecting an individual artifact. The former two options will attempt to download the entire Github repository and all artifacts. The later option is what I will show below so that you can cherry-pick just the artifact you need. In this case just the RPD.
Using FMAP and AnalyticsRes in a Oracle BI High Availability Implementation
The fmap syntax has been used for a long time in Oracle BI / Siebel Analytics when referencing images inherent in the application as well as custom images. This syntax is used on Analysis requests an dashboards. The syntax is usually fmap:images/myimage.png or just images/myimage.png in some fields when developing. In legacy Oracle BI environments custom images were usually tossed in the \web\res\ folder and referencing custom images using fmap worked the sames as it did for those inherent images. If the legacy OBIEE environment was scaled-out in a cluster then most integrations just deployed the custom images or files to each server in the cluster and called it a day. There are better practices to this latter approach.
