The JVMMODULELOCATION setting in the essbase.cfg file enables you to designate a specific installation of JRE for use with Essbase, and is required to enable Data Mining, Shared Services, custom defined functions, triggers, and external authentication.
This setting is particularly useful if you have multiple versions of Java installed on the Essbase Server computer.
During Essbase Server configuration, the correct setting for JVMMODULELOCATION is automatically added to essbase.cfg.
To change JVMMODULELOCATION parameters, you must specify the full path and file name of the Java Virtual Machine (JVM) library. The location and name of the library varies, depending on the operating system that you are using. EPM System Installer installs JRE in EPM_ORACLE_HOME/JDK160_21/jre.
Note: | To run 64–bit Essbase on any 64–bit operating system requires a 64–bit JVM. |
