You can configure Oracle HTTP Server to provide load balancing support to two or more Financial Management or FDM Web applications. You set up a load balancer in front of the Web server using EPM System Configurator.
To set up Oracle HTTP Server as a load balancer for Financial Management or FDM Web applications:
Install EPM System products including Financial Management or FDM Web applications on two or more machines.
Configure EPM System products using EPM System Configurator using the sequence described in Configuration Sequence in a Distributed Environment.
Configure Financial Management and FDM on each machine in the environment.
On one machine, select Update Logical Addresses for Web Applications from the Foundation tasks and for Host, enter the URL of the load balancer or Oracle HTTP Server.
You need to perform this task on only one machine in the environment.
Configure the Web server last. (Select Configure Web Server from the Foundation tasks.) Then, restart the Web server and EPM Workspace.
