To add an Analytic Cluster:
From Enterprise View or a custom view, select a provider under the Provider Services node.
Right-click and select Create, then Create Analytic Cluster.
In Add Analytic Cluster, enter the cluster name under Cluster name, such as East Coast Sales.
In Description, enter a short description for the cluster, such as East Coast sales databases.
Click Add to add Essbase Servers to the cluster.
In the Select Cluster Component Database dialog box, specify the name of the Essbase Server, the application name, and database name.
Click OK.
The name of the Essbase Server and associated application and database is displayed under the Cluster component list box. For example, localhost.Demo.Basic. A cluster component consists of the Essbase Server, application, and database name.
Repeat Steps 5 - 7 to add cluster components to the cluster. To remove cluster components, select the component and click Remove.
In Add Analytic Cluster, click OK.
Under the Analytic Clusters node, the name of the cluster you just created is displayed.
Note: | Unlike standalone Essbase Servers, newly created Analytic Clusters are not available to users until the next time Provider Services is restarted. |
