Generating BIF files

These steps need to be followed to generate BIF files for an Oracle system or ERP systems matching the Oracle security model.

To generate the BIF files:

  1. Prepare xml files for each object as explained above.
  2. Zip .xml file for each object.
  3. Convert each .zip file to .bez file using the ZipToBezUtility. For usage details of the utility, refer the ZipToBezUtility documentation.
  4. Create a configuration file .beu using the template BEU_Oracle_Template.beu file. The BEU_Oracle_Template.beu is shipped along with the documentation.
  5. The entries for the .bez file should be made in the .beu file for each object.
    Note: The .zip files with data for every Oracle object must not exceed a file size of 256MB. For details on importing connections using generated .beu file, refer to the online help shipped with the product.
