Registering Essbase Server with Performance Management Architect

In order to deploy cubes from Oracle Hyperion EPM Architect, Fusion Edition to Essbase Server, you must register the appropriate Essbase Server instances with Performance Management Architect.

Note:

To register Essbase Server instances with Performance Management Architect, the Essbase Server instances must be externalized to Oracle's Hyperion® Shared Services.

  To register Essbase Server with Performance Management Architect:

  1. Ensure that you are logged into Essbase Server and Essbase Administration Services Console with the same user name and password, and that this user is externalized.

  2. From Enterprise View, right-click the Essbase Servers node and select Register Essbase Servers with BPM Architect.

  3. In the Register Essbase Servers with BPM Architect dialog box, choose a server from the Available list in the top right pane, and either click the left arrow button or double-click the server name to move it to the Select pane.

    The Essbase Server instances displayed in the Available list are servers that have been externalized in Shared Services.

    The server you selected is now displayed under Server Name in the lower right portion of the dialog box; for example, aspen5.

  4. Under Instance Name for the server you just selected, enter a user-friendly name for this registration.

    For the example, for aspen5, you might provide the instance name, Esb for BPMA.

  5. Click OK.

    The next time you open the Register Essbase Servers with BPM Architect dialog box, the instance and server name that you registered is now displayed in the Selected pane. For example:

    Esb for BPMA aspen5

  6. Optional—Complete step 1 through step 5 for each Essbase Server instance you want to register with Performance Management Architect
