This section describes how to configure Lifecycle Management when Shared Services is set up for high availability and is started as a Windows service.
After this configuration is completed, when artifacts are exported using Lifecycle Management, the content is exported to a path on a shared disk; when imported, the content is read from the shared disk exported location.
To configure Lifecycle Management for high availability:
Set up a shared disk/folder that is accessible to all Shared Services nodes.
On each node, start Shared Services as a service using the login of a domain user who has access to the shared disk/folder.
On one node, launch Oracle's Hyperion® Shared Services Console and expand the Deployment Metadata node under the Foundation application group.
Expand the Shared Services Registry node, then Foundation Services, and then Shared Services.
Under the Shared Services node, right-click the Properties node and select Export for Edit.
Save the component.properties file to a location on the file system.
Open the saved file in a text editor and search for the property filesystem.artifact.path.
Change the value associated with the filesystem.artifact.path property.
UNIX-style UNC paths with forward slashes must be defined for the shared disk; for example:
filesystem.artifact.path=//hostname/share
From Oracle's Hyperion® Shared Services Console, right-click the Properties node under Shared Services, and select Import after Edit.
Browse to the location of the updated file and select the file.
This action updates the property in Oracle's Hyperion Shared Services Registry.
Restart Shared Services on this node and all other nodes using the domain user login.
