Financial Reporting Print Server Clusters

You can deploy the Financial Reporting Print Server in an active-active configuration, with one installation on each machine. No manual steps are required to achieve load balancing and failover, but you must configure and register Financial Reporting Print Server manually before you set up clustering.

  To configure and register the Financial Reporting Print Server:

  1. From a command line, navigate to the directory where Financial Reporting Studio is installed. The default installation directory is Financial_Reporting_Studio_Installation_Directory/products/financialreporting/install/bin, and open FRSetupPrintServer.properties in a text editor.

    The default installation directory for Financial Reporting Studio is c:/Program Files/Oracle/FinancialReportingStudio.

  2. Specify the Financial Reporting Server URL and the administrator credentials used to register the Financial Reporting Print Server:

    • FRWebServer=http://server:port

      Specify the same server URL that is used for connecting from Financial Reporting Studio, and ensure that the server is running.

    • AdminUser=user name

    • AdminPassword=password

  3. From a command line, navigate to Financial_Reporting_Studio_Installation_Directory/products/financialreporting/install/bin, and run this command:

    FRSetupPrintServer.cmd

  4. Ensure that the Financial Reporting Print Server service has been created and started.

    Note:

    You might need to start the service manually the first time.
