Installing Oracle BI Components on Different Machines

This topic is part of the Process of Installing the Complete Oracle BI Infrastructure.

The Oracle Business Intelligence Presentation Services, Client Tools, and Oracle BI Server components can be installed to run on separate machines. If you are planning to install Oracle Business Intelligence Presentation Services and Oracle Business Intelligence Server on separate machines, run the installer the number of times necessary for each machine to have its own installation. For example:

• On the Oracle Business Intelligence Presentation Services Machine:

  Select the Oracle Business Intelligence Presentation Services installation option.
  This installs the ODBC driver, ODBC Client, Answers, and Delivers components.

  If Oracle Business Intelligence Presentation Services is installed on a different machine than Oracle BI Server, configure the Oracle BI Presentation Services machine as shown in the topic Configuring Oracle BI Presentation Services to Communicate With Oracle BI Scheduler.

• On the Oracle Business Intelligence Server machine:

  Select the installation option Oracle Business Intelligence Server.

NOTE:  The Custom Setup Type allows you to select individual components for installation.
