Back up these databases:
Databases that store EPM System application data
The Shared Services repository
The Shared Services repository contains the Shared Services Registry, which stores most product configuration settings. It also contains Native Directory, provisioning information, and Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management Workspace preferences. Oracle recommends a physical full backup immediately after installation and configuration.
For instructions on backing up an individual EPM System component, see the section of this guide that is specific to the component. See EPM Workspace and Shared Services for instructions on backing up Foundation Services.
Also back up any database, using the vendor documentation, that you use to store or extract data for use in product applications. Regular backups of database content are recommended for these EPM System components:
