-M

To specify the location of the Essbase message database file if the file is moved to a new location:

The default location is products\products\Essbase\eis\server\bin\essbase.mdb.

In Windows:

In the startup.bat file, to specify the new location of the Essbase message database file as essbasemsg\bin, add -Mc:\essbasemsg\bin\essbase.mdb after "C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\eis\server\bin\olapisvr.exe". For example:

"C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\eis\server\bin\olapisvr.exe" -Mc:\essbasemsg\bin\essbase.mdb

Always enclose path names that contain spaces with quotation marks (" "); for example, type:

"C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\eis\server\bin\olapisvr.exe" -M"c:\eis svr\bin\essbase.mdb"

In UNIX:

To specify the new location of essbase.mdb as essbasemsg\bin, type:

olapisvr -M/vol1/essbasemsg/bin/essbase.mdb

Enclose path names that contain spaces with quotation marks (" "); for example:

olapisvr -M"/vol1/essbase msg/bin/essbase.mdb"

In Windows or UNIX:

In the ais.cfg file, this parameter is specified in the following format:

[M]=c:\eissvr\bin\essbase.mdb

or

[M]=c:\ess svr\bin\essbase.mdb

Note:

In the ais.cfg file, you do not need to add quotation marks around path names that contain spaces.
