OBIEE 11g - Adding Users using WLST script

Adding Users - using WLST script

There might be situations where we may have to create new users to OBIEE 11g environment.

If is a small list it can be achieved from FMW Console and we all know that how painful it will be if we have a long list of users to be created.

This situation might arise - if the OBIEE 11g security is configured to use the default WLS LDAP OR if your corporate LDAP has missing users.

Rather than creating the users from FMW console, a WLST script can be used to achieve the same and in much easier way.

The below is the script -

There are two parts to this script - a shell part and jython part which is called from the shell script.
