Use items in the Add Essbase Server dialog box to add an Essbase Server to Enterprise View. You can add multiple Essbase Servers to your view.
Essbase node—Enter the name of an Essbase Server or cluster. The Essbase Server name is the name of the computer on which Essbase Server is installed. Avoid using "localhost" as the Essbase Server name, as it may result in problems when displaying partitions or when Administration Services Console is running on a different computer than Essbase Administration Server.
If the port setting for Essbase Server is not the default, you may need to specify a port value after the Essbase Server name (for example, ServerName:9002).
Use Single Sign-On—Select if the user is externally authenticated, either through the Shared Services native directory or through a corporate authentication provider.
Use SSL—Select if you are connecting to Essbase Server using SSL encryption.
Password and Confirm password—Enter or reenter, respectively, the user's Essbase Server password exactly as it is defined on the Essbase Server that you are adding.
If the user is externally authenticated on Essbase Server, no password is needed and these text boxes are inactive.
