OBIEE 11.1.1.5 or above: Admin Server as a single point of failure (SPOF) is REALLY not impacting OBIEE work

Applies To: 11.1.1.5, 11.1.1.6
Admin Server as a single point of failure (SPOF) is REALLY not impacting OBIEE work. By setting virtualize tag to true (in EM) to manage multiple LDAP providers, it is enabling failover and HA on authentication and authorization inside OBIEE.
Following are the test cases used for testing impact on OBIEE, if Admin Server is not available:
a. Test 1: Admin Server crashes and impact on OBIEE
Scenario: All OBIEE components are up and running.
b. Test 2: Admin Server had not been started and impact on OBIEE.
Scenario: OBIEE Server bi_server1 is started, but Admin Server isn’t
