Installing RCU 11.1.1.7.0 utility on Windows 7 64 bit.

Hi Fellow Experts,

Here I have tried to explain step by step procedure to install RCU utility version 11.1.1.7.0 for OBIEE 11g.

This is a prerequisite before installing OBIEE 11g in your machine and has to be done after you have installed a database.

I have taken these screenshots while installing the RCU on my Windows 7 64 bit laptop, so the entries I have given on this installation may vary depending on your laptop configuration.


Step1: Go to the OBIEE 11.1.1.x downloads page in oracle.com and accept the license agreement. Once you accept the agreement, all the download links will enable.
