Specify settings for all products on all machines that have been identified in the Shared Services Registry so far, or click or select Next to accept the default values.
If you configure on another machine and change any of these options, your new selections apply for all products and machines that you have not configured. If you reconfigure on a machine, the new settings apply to any products that you reconfigure and to future configurations.
The following table describes options for common settings configuration.
| EPM System Configurator Fields | Description | Your Information |
|---|---|---|
Create Windows Services for configured components (Windows only) | Select to configure each service as a Windows service that starts automatically when you start Windows. | |
Run Windows Services as non-local system account | Select to specify a non-local system account to configure Windows services, and then specify a user name and password. Note: Oracle recommends that you select this option. If you are using Reporting and Analysis in a distributed environment, you must update the service to run as a user who has read-write access to the shared data folder. If you do not select this option, EPM System Configurator creates Windows services using the local system account. Before you start the services, change them to use the appropriate domain account | |
User name | Enter the user name for the user to launch the Windows services. If you leave this field blank, EPM System Configurator creates the services using the local system account. | |
Password | Enter the password for the user used to launch Windows services. | |
Use SSL for Web application server communications (requires manual configuration) | Depending on your SSL implementation, select to use SSL communication for all Web applications. If this option is selected, URLs are in the form https. Note: Selecting this option does not enable secure communication for the Web application server and does not create and load certificates into JREs and JDKs. See Oracle Hyperion Enterprise Performance Management System Security Administration Guide for more information. To change from an SSL-enabled environment to a non-SSL-enabled environment or the converse, see Reconfiguring for SSL. Modifying this option is not sufficient. | |
Mail Server Host | For products that integrate an e-mail feature, which uses standard Simple Mail Transfer Protocol (SMTP) protocol, specify the outgoing mail (SMTP) server. To enable e-mail alerts, you must specify the SMTP server name. | |
Port | Specify the mail server port number or accept the default value. If you are using SSL to communicate with the mail server, enter an SSL port. | |
Administrator's Email Address | Specify the administrator's e-mail address to use for notifications. | |
Use SSL to communicate with mail server | Select to use SSL communication for all e-mail communication. | |
Use authentication to send email | Specify whether the mail server requires authentication, and then specify a user name and password. | |
User Name | Specify the user name for the SMTP server. | |
Password | Specify the password for the SMTP server. |
